Impossible to secure the barest neoessauee of
lf for the poor old people under their charge.
Having absolutely no resources, and its very
fos friends being neither well-off nor indnen
*.al, the great problem with its managers Is
how to get the money necessary to enable I
? them to comply with the two orders received
from the City Hall during the last six months;
1st, to fill up their lot, whioh is way below the
street level and becomes a pond of stagnant t
and offensive water after every storm, and, 2d,
to fix the siedewalks in front of their premises.
Perhaps some of our active, influential and
charitable fellow-citizean will take the matter 1
under conslderation. The Molmnro STAR will d
give all necessary "advertising and po fug" h'
ritff#, Fite contribution towards the relief of r
this most deserving but much neglected insti- ml
tution. ti

or. Under thia state of afadrs we see only one
solution of the diMeonlties whioh surround the
Squestion of publio education. That solution
of lies is an entire obange of the system. i
ge. We must adopt either what is called the
rr denominational plan, or one similar to
un- that followed in Texas, under whloh any
is one who holds a certifloate from the
le shobool authorities, and who gives the proof
sd required by law that he has taught a certain I
u; number cf children during the month or qua?.
he tear, rsoeivse, from the State, the pro rate of
nt the appropriation for each ohild.
d, Under the estimates presented by our Shobool c
. Board the education of a few less than 20,000
id ohildren will cost $312.200, or $15 61 a ohild.
sr Not one cent is given to aid the private and
II denominational institutions which educate at
, least 10,000 other children, while almost as
- many more are allowed to ran wild in the
streets, growing up without mental or mortal
training, and unoared for by either parents or
School Board. Yet, as all the people contribute
to the sohool fund, each and every ohild has a
a claim upon it for his instruction, while the
Board, if it has any mission at all, is bound to
use every effort to secure the advantages of
education for all ohildren, without distino
on. I grosly unfair to spend tt
$15 on one ohild and to refuse to give S
even one cent for another having equal rights,
that no one in this broad land could be found di
to defend the proposition in the abstract, yet, e
in practice this is exactly what the publio Is
compelled to submit to by the advocates of the
present system. It may be said that every
child has a right to go to the public schools. an
Very true, but of what use is a right which no
cannot be exercised t With $312.200 ($62 200 of ha
which is not even remotely is sight) the pres- the
ent economfoal Board, after cutting down sala- an
ries and crowding school rooms to snffocation, Mi
can only provide for 20,000 children; what oir
would they do ifthe remalilag fory or y
per cent of the school population were to ap
ply for admission? Da
No law should stand whioh is not just to all. stoc
If the authorities, as in our case, have only whi
$250,000 to spare for the education of 40,000
obildren, $6 25 belong to eaeoh child for that Od
purpose and should be expended for his benefit.
Under what general laws or system the money
should be disebrsed can easily be settled ones
the justice of the proposition is generally ad
mitted, and it is towards the enlightenment of ?ub
the publio on this point that the eforts of all
real friends of True Education should now he $,

r.* The testimony elicited was very interesting,
in. varied and important, and will aid the Com.
ry mittee greatly in arriving at conclusions which -
he must materially benefit this section of the
at country in several ways, even though they
to should not result in seuoring forue entire im
°g munity from the ravages of the fever. We
id cannot, of course, undertake, in our limited
dspace, to'give even a synopsis of the testimony
- of the many distinguished physicians who ap
ig -ared before the committee; but, for the pur
po~id of showing how imperfect our quarantine I
laws are, and how loosely and with what lit- [
tie judgment they have been administered,
we copy the synopsis of Dr. Taylor's and Dr.
Carrington's remarks as given in the Democrat: :b
Dr. B. F. Taylor.-I am secretary and treas
urer of the Board of Health. I have also
charge of the sanitary inspection or the city.
The Governor's proclamation proclaiming
quarantine went into effect on the fifteenth of
May. Yellow fever was prevailing in Havana
t at the date the proclamation was ise ed and
it was included in the infected ports specified.
The detention of the Sonder at quarantine NC
was at the discretion of the quarantinephysi.
s cian. The quarantine law gives him discre
tion. Under the operation of the law, when
the time of detention is left in the discretion
of a quarantine physician, there is danger of
the introduction of the disease. The law isde
fective. The quarantine physician had the
right to detain the Sonder for five hours or
five days; it was under the law within his dis
oretion. Under the proclamation, it was the
duty of Dr. Carrington to have detained the
Sonder ten days. Toe Board of Health most
have known that she was only detained five
hours. I believe that the last epidemic was
traceable to the two imported eases. If the
Sooder had been detained in accordance with
the proclamation of the Governor the two
oases would have developed themselves at the
station. If the two oases had not been im- i
ported I think there would have been no epi
demic, that is if there had been no later im
portation. The quarantine did not keep the
fever out, as the evidence shows. I think a
rigid national quarantine law impartially ad- mat
ministered, would prevent the importation of
the fever.
Dr. C. W. Carrington : lam resident physi
clan at Quarantine Station. Dr. Patton it my
assistant. The Bonder arrived at Quarantine
Is Station at about 8 o'olook in the morning. I
boarded her, and have here a written state
ment which I have prepared for the Board of
P- Health, and with your permission I will read
I) It. It is contained in my annual report. The
statement was in effect that attention had
been called to Clark; that his case had been
examined into, but the symptoms were only
those cf ordinary fever. Dr. Patton wa of the
0 opinion thatt it was but an ordinary case. I
u have no evidence except what has been pre.
o sented as to what Clark died of. In a case like
Clarke's, I believe he might have escaped the
o scrutiny of a quarantine physician. I see no
reason why we should not have other epidem.
los from the introduction of fever in cases like
that of Clark's. If the State laws were execu
ted with more rigor, there would be less
danger. I think, to secure safety, there should
be a more thorough system of disinfection and
a longer period of deten ion. I think there
woula be less risk if the vessel was prevented
from coming up to the city at all. Dr. Patton,
my assistant, has not had much exporlence in 5
yellow fever before the last epidemic. The -
doctor then read a statement, showing that
the first case coming under his observation was
on the steamship Borneuia. The Borussiasnd
the Bonder were the only steamers in May ar
riving with fever on board. In January, the v
ship El Moro passed the Quarantine Station,
and afterwards arrived at New Orleans. She
afterwards left with a cargo of rosin. Stranded v
on the bar and afterwards the fever broke out.
I am familiar with the disease of yellow fever,
having been practicing since 1847. I have not
of late attended many cases. Practised in
Grand Golf. I did not see Clarke's case, only 5J
as I webt on board. My astletant, Dr. Patton,
Sreported to me that all on board thS Bonder
Swere well, My mind Is in a etae of doubt es
to whether Clarke had the fever or not. The
steamer Boronel was detained eight days;
abe bad five oaee on board. I oan say why
the Bonder, only three end a half days from
Bavana, we not detained longer than she
Dr. Carrington's testimony, to a limited ex
tent only, dispose of the oharge that neither
he nor his aselstant, knew muoh about yellow
fever ; and it is in this matter that our Board
of Health has, we think, justly inourred the
censure of the publio. That body showed its
power, inithe Spring, by seouring the removal
or enforoed resignation of the first Quarantine
physioian on apparently frivolous grounds.
Why did it permit, without a protest, the ap
pointment, to the important poeitiens of Quar
antine cfltoere, of physioians who oonfeeeedly
knew little about the fever t After the ap
pointment why did the Board allow them to
remain in offoe t
