THE REEUHL1CAN PHITOCIACV. The rights, the liberties and the politi cal and social welfare of the American people depend upon the maintenance of a proper medium and balance between so cialism on the one hand and the undue influence of the money power in govern mental affairs on the other. The ten dency of the one is to utter confusion,and that of the oilier is to entrench itself | about with such strongholds of silver and j gold Hint it c.in defy and strangle the I against the purpose of the money power —secretly cherished and openly mani fested—to secure control of both the law making and law-executing departments of government, then, to that extent, socialism is right and deserves en couragement instead of contumely. No greater danger from any quarter threatens the liberties of the people and the stability of this republic than that which lurks in this purpose of the few to rule the many. A plutocracy led to the fall of the republic of Home. That plutocracy differed from ours only in the fact that it gathered its wealth di rectly from the spoils of war, while the great wealth which is possessed by the money kings of the nortli has been ac quired liy the opportunities for specula tion which attended and followed a civil war and a depreciated currency. The substitution of a moneyed oligarchy for a manhood democracy is a departure from the principles upon which our government was based. No government is strengthened or can long survive such radical changes from the original structure. It is the duty of the people—the people whose freedom was baptized in the blood of their fathers—to resist now, and with determination, the insiduous efforts of the republican pluto crats. The northern people poured out blood like water and scattered treasure to the winds to destroy what they were pleased to call the “southern aristocrats,” but they have substituted in their stead an element which endangers the liberty of the white man—the northern plutocrat. The south ern aristocrat always stood by the consti tution and the rights of the people, but the northern plutocrat would subvert the constitution and engulf the liberties of the people in their greed for gain. TYPHOID FEVEH. For the Enquirer-Bun.) “Then marked he, too, How lizard fed on ant, and snake on him, And kite on both; and how the flsh hawk Robbed the ish tiger of that which it had seized; The shrike chasing the bulbul, which did Chase the jeweled butterfly, till everywhere Each slew a slayer and in tnrn was slain; Life liviag upon death.’’ Germs, too, must live. They are en dowed with an instinct that impels them to seek nourishment, as the shark that feeds on lesser fiRh. Germs are thorns in the rose of life. Here is about the way organized life may be placed in order: Germs, meaning all animal parasites, mote, worms, reptiles, flsh, birds, beasts, "man, demon, deva, God.” These smallest, germs are to our naked eyes the veriest mockery. Yet they may be likened to the stars, for they are hid in the day by the embarrass ment. of light. Some one has aptly said that God’s most wondrous creations arc the small bodies that can only be seen with the powerful microscopes. The cause of typhoid fever is an animal or ganism that lodges and lives in colonies in t.ie small intestine, and only in cer tain glands—called after Peyer, Peyer’s glands—lining this intestine. These germs find their entrance into man in most cases through the medium of the water that is drank. Sometimes they may be breathed in, and like chloroform or to bacco smoke enter the system. The I manhood, while the pallid moon is dying out, cooling off, and the sun is far behind Jupiter. The progenitor of the typhTid microbe was typhus fever, spotted fever, a disease that decimated many parts of Europe from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century. It is somewhat queer to consider the multiplicity of names that cumber the word germ. Just see here what iB used for that embryonic word: Microbe, micrococcus, spirillum, spore, bacillus, bacterium, parasite, pilz, etc. Phrase ology is a science in itself. There is no disease that can well be mistaken for typhoid if a theinometer be used. Typho-malarial is a subterfuge to hide behind. He who mistakes typhoid at first is prone later on to call what at first was christened malarial, typho-malarial. Nature has great resources in children, and most of them recover from typhoid. Eighty per cent of all typhoid patients recover. The typhoid germ can live only a certain time pent up in the human system, and for this reason the disease is called self-limiting. Baths and antepyrin or thallin should be given in order to keep the tempera ture from oxidizing the tis sues and thus turning the elastic fibres into fat. A typhoid patient is like a ship in a storm; wo are not to endeavor to break up the storm, but we, like the true mariner, must guide the ship through the storm, Never give veratrum. Judi cious feeding and nursing are potent fac tors in the treatment of all fevers. There may be some better food for fever pa tients than milk, bnt we do not know it yet. Meat juices simply stimulate, and do not nourish. The ideal nurse is the mother with her amiable watchfulness, her tender feminine softness, the en dearing sweetness in her anxiety, the soft electric stroke of her Hbnd, the heart distended with goodness; these make us glow with a sacred flame. SKINsBLOOD DUeaaea from Pimples to Ncroftiln Cnred by Catlcnra. Hundreds of letters in our possession, copies of which may be had by return of mail, repeat this story: —I have been a terrible sufferer tor years from Diseases of the Skin and Blood; have been obliged to shun public places by reason of my dis figuring humors: have had the best physicians; have spent hundreds of dollars, and got no relief until I used the Cuticura Remedies, which have cured me, and left my skin and blood m pure as a child’s. Covered With Halt ■henna. Cuticura Remedies are the greatest medicines on earth. Had the worst case of Salt Rheum in this country, My mother hod it twenty years, and in fact died from it.

When those who have groat wealth hold the highest nfliees, the tendency is to use the power which is born of money to perpetuate themselves and their friends in olilee and to use the opportunities which otliee gives them to add to their wealth. Any party which develops a tendency to put in office men who have nothing else to recommend them hut their riches lias become danger ous to the liberties of the people, and ought to he shorn of its political power. The nomination of the millionaire Ames by the republicans of Massachu setts calls renewed attention to the ten dency of that party in thatdirection. it’s habit of electing mere money hags or corporation attorneys to the senate was long ago fixed, but the influence of the money power in that organization is clearly shown by the nominations it has made for the oiHce of governor in several states this year. Bodwell in Maine, Sawyer in New Hampshire, Wetmore in ltliode Island, Loundsbury in Con necticut, and now Ames in Massachu setts, are all rich men, and were nominated simply because they are rich, as was Davenport in the state of New York last year. Not one of them would have been thought of for tiie highest office in the gift of the state but for his money. Some of them have been charged by their own partisans with buying their nominations, and others are notoriously large contributors to the campaign corruption funds of their party. They buy the offices not for public service, hut as a personal dis tinction, or as affording an opportunity, as they say, to “protect their interest,” hut in fact to promote their selfish and greedy ends at the sacrifice of the well being of the many. These candidates repre sent one of the most dangerous tenden cies in America to-day—the drift of political power into the hands of the moneyed class. The tendency of wealth during the past twenty-five years lias been to ally itself with the party in jiower. When what is called socialism pro tests by peaceful and lawful measures medium in this latter case is then sewer gas or the dejections from a typhoid fever patient. This is the pestilence that wulk- eth in darkness, and is “no lovelier than mackerel by moonshine.” That germs fall upon man and pray upon his vitals is man’s faults. Man de stroys lions, snakes, bears, tangible ene mies, yet he is loath to believe the trifling molecule of a germ worthy his valor, and he recklessly, ruthlessly swal lows myriads of them in unwholesome well water. This is no dictum of any one man, hut the most conscientious physicians are unanimously agreed that practically all typhoid fever comes from certain specific animalculae in drinking water. Not ail wells aTe infected, and an infected well is not impure all the time, and not every one that drinks of impure well water catches the fever. In any epidemic of cholera, diphtheriajor any disease arising from animal germs, all diseases from such germs are more or less contagious—only a small portion of the population is in fected. People at one time possess an immunity, or they may be hardened to it. We know that wells are subject to contamination any time, and are, there fore, never safe. Drink no well water, for it will sureful he paid a tithe in death. CiBti-rn water is always and forever to be recommended. Him who scoffs at this let investigate. When I hear the crystal spring spoken of as the dearest recollection; the old well lauded for its limpid, cooling, free and bounteous water—-a feeling arises within me that the hope and fair expect ancy of that home will yet hug a linger ing fever. All the wells in the country, even on mountains, are liable to infec tion. In cities and towns the well and stable are generally, for convenience sake, placed off in one corner of the lot, and surface water readily percolates through, bearing in its lap fatal poison. Typhoid fever, as it now appears, was not known until the commencement of the eighteenth century. Morgagni was the first to describe it. Germs again, like the stars, change with time—under go a revolution, from malignancy to a benign state. Proctor says the planets are in various phases of existence. Jupiter is just pre paring to put on swaddling clothes and enter life; our planet is in full vigor of Cuticura Remedies are sold everywhere.
