The source of Iti profits was very well known at tho
time Congressmen bought It Though Oikes AlI may

not on that account Innocent The dishonor cf tho act

James A Garfield of Ohio had ten shares never paid a

A Friendly Word with our Republican
Contcmpornricv
I Since tho Boston Advertiser attempted to
I Bet Gen GAUFIELDS record right by plead
ing that neither Gen UAWLEY nor tho lessor
HOAR would support him for President cl
ho believed that there was tho least smell of
corruption about his garments thcro have
been put forward in his defence arguments
and statements which aro oven moro ex
l traordinary and suggestive
That our Republican contemporaries may
I I understand exactly what tho question Is
that must bo answered beforo Gen GAIt
riELD is acquitted of bribe taking and per
I jury wo once moro print his sworn denial

M Mr AMES never pave nor offered to give me any tol
or other valuable thing as a gift I once asked and ob
tained from him and afterward repaid to him I loin of

I I celred from or delivered to him I never owned re
celled or agreed to receive any stock of tho credit
I I Moblller of tho Union Tactile Itallroad nor any divi
dends or profits arising from either of them
The one only question now at Issuo Is
Did Gen GAIIFICLU swear to tho truth I
t 1 not ho is 0 taker of bribes and 0 pot juror
A perfect understanding of this simple
point will enable tho professed defenders of

It is well that tho public should note this
Ingenuous debate on the object and methods

Lady Nurses in Hospltali
Tho profession of nurse has of late be
come almost fashionable in England and a
great deal I of discussion Is going on in the
London press touching tho propriety of
employing educated women as muses In tho
public hospitals This movement hits re
ceived great impetus lout tho remarkable
career of Sister Doitv whoso biographer
Miss LONSDUI Is taUng an active part in

Miss LOSHDAIIH stilctuies which woio
printed In the Nineteenth Century coiled
forth a perfect storm of indignation and ro
buko on tho part of tho medical profession
Among tho physicians who denounce her
assertions as unfounded I not libellous aro
I I Sir WILMAM GubL Dr IlAiiimsiioM and
Dr Moxox Tho two former speaking for
I Guys Hospital point out that thc posts of
mation and sisters In that establishment
I havo been occupied by ladles quito as well
I horn and educated as Miss LONSDAW her
self and they deny that anything like tho
alleged neglect of patients has taken place
on the pint of subordinate muses Dr
Moxox for his part admits that tho major
ity of the minor female employers aro
drawn fiom tho class of domestic service
and ho believes that this must always bo tho
case for the notion of nursing alt tho In
mates of vast hospitals by stray volunteers
front the socalled higher classes Is not In
his opinion a practicable Idea Theto aro
not enough of them In tho first place all
of those who offer many are too Bclfsufll
clcnl and Intiactnblo to bo of service Sir
VIIMAM GUM II Wlls at lonlth on a curious
II proof of selfcomplacency In Miss LONS
IULVS statement that accomplished lady
nurses such as are tho mombets of tho
slsteihoods need no Instillation I from physl
chills an to tho right methods of nursing
111 nfllrins tho other hand that
II anrms on uth1 Imld every
Itch and process connected with tho treat
ncnt of tho sick dcilvcs Its solo warrant
loin the spcclllc knowledge and experience
of 1 physician and that such simple things
as cleanliness tho lifting and moving of pa
icnts and tho administration of uuurlsh
ncnt or stimulants must In many vnile
tel and fatages of disease call for frequent
upprvlslon and interference on tho part of
ho medical adviser To say that a doctor
nows less about nursing than a nurse Is
tantamount In tho judgment of those ex
torts to saying that ho dos not know his
business And as to tho familiar dictum
tbout physicians being made for patients
Dr Moxox does not scruple to declare that
tho school attached to Guys Hospital ro
gatdrd as a means of securing medical pro
Iclenoy is of vastly more impoitaueo to tho
community at largo than tho comfort and
recovery of tho pattlcular sick peibolis ad
nltlcd to its wards
All of these distinguished physicians ac
knowledge frankly that ho old system of
nursing might bo bettor and they declare
hat 1 steady Improvement is going on
They believe however that In view of their
past cervices tho medical start of the sev
eral great hospitals may safely bo trusted to
make the necessary reforms without the in
reduction of a new and Independent cle
ment Ihoy view with a goodnatured con
tempt tho current mania for nursing and
thin authorities of tho London Hospital
which Is tho establishment In
largest ostlblshmont tho
United Kingdom decline openly that they
vlll never admit n member of tho I now
sisterhoods within their walls Thus It
seems manifest that Miss LONSDAU has
done her cause moro harm than good
by > her hasty deductions and unsus
tamed Insinuations Tho truth Is that 0
months experience scarcely justlllod tils
lady In casting a slur upon the whole Ira
ernlty of physicians and holding up to
public reprobation a largo body of Illpaid
and hardworking subordinates On tho
whole wo apprehend that notwithstanding
tho present fashionable craze tho admirers
and successois of Sister DOHA will fall to
raise nursing from tho level of
lurslll an ancillary
calling to that of a profession well nigh as
llgnllled and Important u that of medicine
Uclf possessing Indeed co rdhhlato and
independent functions When people aro 111 I I
they will continue to semi for a physician I
and they will deem that person tho best I
lurso who has tho fewest sot notions of her i
own and who obeys with docility minute

Not Quite Iur Enough

Southern Republicans white and black

wholly abandoned by their party which by this

proscribes tho South as ontflldo the organization

proposed Judge Settle Gov Davis ant other
