ELXIN, of Indiana, subject to tho will ot tlio Republican masses. The Basis of Peace. o U,T OF the wreck anil ruin In South Africa it Ih safe to pre dict that a new common wealth will spring, guaran teeing to every law-abiding citizen equality before the law and liberty to think, speak and net subject only to the limitations made necessary by nirfdern civilization. This is assured In the terms of peace, which forever re move tho chief elements of friction that produced the war, without taking from any burgher, or son or daughter of a burgher, a single natural right. An Independent form of government which had degenerated into a machin ery of race oppression and extortion Is demolished to make way for real re publicanism under a nominal mon archy. There are no reprisals. Burgh ers who have fought valiantly against irresistible odds will be sent back to their homes, their property restored to them and liberal aid given by the Eng lish government, so that the waste of war may be quickly repaired. Notor ious criminals will be punished by courts martial under the direction of reputable Boer commanders; exiled war prisoners will be returned and put in the way of resuming peaceful pur suits; and as soon as possible honest self-government colonial In form will replace the antiquated Kruger oligar chy which masqueraded ns a republic. As in Canada, tho question of differ ences in language in the schools will bfc solved by local option, and In the courts .Dutch will be recognized when necessary in the administration of Jus tice. It cannot be doubted that this gives a basis of permanent peace and ulti mate great prosperity. The war has educated both sides. It will be looke'd back upon, a generation hence, as the greatest blessing, which ever befell South Africa. Many complaints were heard during the recent eisteddfod concerts regard ing the racket made by n lot ot hood lums who gathered about the new ar mory and made the nights hideous. This seems to have been tho case with near ly every entertainment that has been given in .the now building since Its opening. It Is' to be hoped that In fu ture the police will he more active in enforcing order. People who pay ad mission fees to listen to a concert should be allowed to. hear the music In peace. When youthful exuberance becomes a nuisance It should either be suppressed or relegated to the fields. Tioga County's Lesson. WR SAID last week that a popular victory for John Klkln hi Tioga county, where tlifi issue between himself' and Senator Quay's, eandldnte, Judge Poni)ypacker, was distinctly and unmistakably drawn, In what has re cently been known to politicians us In surgent territory;, would be tho slgnijl for a stampede to Klkln. The events of the next few days will without doubt verify our "forecast, The primary In Tioga was the last open oiie 'to he held In the gubernatorial canvass. Beginning with Blair and ending Willi Tioga, every open primary iihs'rpstilied' lu'Klkln majorities, In no iostaWfowherii tilt) tipneul was carried dlrccfifyuto ''the people has John !Klkln cei'j defeated ,lle has vanquished. both or hjl 'opponents, singly and together.

Thq t jioihlnaQon of Pennyp'uckor,' therefore, nvo'uld represent machine deltancu of majority preference, a proceeding which history teaches Is dangerous. The iiouil. nation of Colonel Waives would repre sent compromise; the kind of compro mise which takes from the victor to reward the vanquished. That would bo theoreUcul, but tint jmictlcul, The noiul. nation of John Klkln alone would rep resent clean-cut, straightforward, stal "Hun of ISliihit'oii l'apor I IImiIIiht. "'.flO 'fis" '..

It Is difficult for itnyjinan hailing from the stale of Ohio to'convlnce the rest of the world that he has no desire for otllce. A Day of Fate. THIJ ONK fact which tran scends all others among yes terday's eventful develop meiits lu the great strike Is the preservation of peace. Upon this tho strike leaders are to bo congratu lated. So long as they can restrain the forces which tend toward violence their movement will have a. lighting chance. The moment they fall in tills, their doom will be sealed. Ileports as to the extent ot the union's success or failure. In calling out the en gineers, firemen and pumpmen vary greatly, for obvious reasons. But so far as the mining interests of the Lacka wanna valley are concerned, It Is plain that tho union has failed. The. percent age of men whom It has been able to inllue;icc Is too small to be effective. The mines at this writing are safe. The frightful loss which would fall upon tho commercial and Industrial future of Scranton and the towns up and down the Lackawanna valley In consequence of a Hooding of the mines has been averted. We look upon this result as shorten ing materially tile duration of the tie up. Of course there has been some fault finding with President Koosevelfs Me morial Day oration on the part ot the cross-roads editors, but the criticism comes from those who had decided what to say before reading the speech. Danger in Borax. THE recent tests made In Ger many should serve as en couragement for timid offi cials In charge of enforcing food laws who hesitate on the ground that It has not been proved that meat preservatives are harmful. Kxperts attached .to. the Imperial Health office at Berlin' have Just pub lished a bulky pamphlet which gives the results of their protracted experi ments to determine the effect of borax upon the human system. The tests were made upon four men, and were carried on for two years. They have proved absolutely that borax In the hu man system retards' the assimilation ot albumen and fats,, and Interferes with tho renewal of tissues. A single dose of borax remains in a man's body for eight' days. The continued use of borax, even lu small quantities, causes an excessive loss of liquids and a de crease in weight without Increasing the subject's thirst and hunger. In some cases, the experts declare In their pum phlet, these phenomena assumed a threatening aspect. In view of the fact that borax Is con sidered the most harmless of the many preparations used in preserving meats and canned vegetables tho above state ment is worthy of careful considera tion. An advocate of a pure food law recently expressed his wonder and In dignation that the penalties for coun terfeiting money should be so severe when people may be allowed to coun terfeit food and place poisonous mate rial upon the markets with .Impunity. It Is said that chemists are constantly discovering Injurious substances in some bakery "products nnfl In confec tionery. Chronic lead poisoning has followed the eating of cream puffs, tea buns, e.tc. It Is the duty of the gov ernment to protect people from tho dangers of food frauds, and no better way-can be devised than by the enact ment 'of stringent laws that will be en forced with1 the unswerving vigilance that marks the pursuit of the counter feiters and manufacturers of Illicit liq uors. Let the same attention be given the Individual who deals, lu poisonous food products that Is received by the mountaineer who prepares moonshine whiskey for tlo underground market, and the food question will have been more than half solved. Edison declares that his latest Inven tion will put the horse out of business. Edison has always been a llrst-class advance agent of his own show, but It Is feared that In the present as well ns lu some oilier Instances the attrac tion in the main tent will not come up to tho expectations created by the large posters. The Asiatic Cholera Menace. THE announcement that Asia tic cholera Is raging at Ma nila and In the adjacent provinces will not be receiv ed with a degree of complacency In view of ho Impending departure of large bodies of United States troops for this country, Introduced In the I'hlllp. pines capital scarcely two mouths ago, the disease has already claimed over a thousand victims, and Is steadily ex tending Its ravages. On account of the sanitary regulations generally observed by the Intelligent white persons In the Philippines, the mortality among them has been comparatively slight, only thirty whites having died from cholera, With uhrclaxlug vigilance upon the part of the health otlicials it Is thought that It will be possible lu time to control the plcague and eventually stump It out as yellow fever has been slumped out In Haviina. lu spite of this, however, there is still need of scrupulous care In guarding against the entrance ot the disease through the ports of nur western seaboard, and too much care cannot be taken in the land ing of largo detachments of leturned American soldiers who will soon be pouring lu from tlo United Stales transports. The authorities of tho war department and the marine- hospital service, It 's said, have given stringent orders Hint every prntitlcnhln precau tion shall bo adopted to prevent the In troduction of tho Unpleasant Invader Into thn Pnclllc ports, and It Is hoped that efforts to keep out.. the disease will bo successful. Tho recent experience III this country with shutllliox, which was undoubtedly litlrnduccd In many sec tions by returned soldiers from the Ori ent, should be taken as a warning that too much vigilance cannot bo exercised In, the senports by those whose duty It Is to see that contnglotts complaints are barred from our shores. Tho nnnotincpincnt by tho statu de partment Hint the ' Htone kidnapping case has been closed will no doubt sat isfy all conservative persons thut a pro per .disposition has been made ot the complicated question. Tho 'decision of our government to refrain from at tempts to collect Indemnity from either Turkey or Bulgaria seems wise. The dispute as to the responsibility for the affair would have made' the proving of an American claim a difficult matter In nny event; and the failure to secure satisfaction would not tend to better the condition of the .people ot this nationality residing In those countries. It will be well In connection with this for those engaged In missionary work to note that tho action of tho United States government Is a, plain Intimation that It cannot be expected to protect en thusiastic teachers who, persist In In vading remote terii lories where the un friendliness of tho population Is so marked as In the Balkan states. It should be taken as a hint that- mission ary enthusiasm should bo tempered with due caution In every Instance. The explorers at Martinique certainly display remarkable courage when one considers the chances each takes of be ing suddenly transformed from a scien tist to a cinder. A good many people think that the passing of a measure to ubollsh the sale of Intoxicants In the national capl tol was a joke. A dry joke, doubtless. Recent events show that the racing automobile like the oil stove too often becomes the property ot persons of lim ited judgment. m According to last accounts the boxers are still active, but their press agents are becoming lazy. Many men with the best of Intentions often administer solar plexus knocks to prosperity. m AS TO SOLDIERS. Editor of The Tribune Sir: Having noticed In of the Scrantonlnn (May nliniit snlrilcM'K In ceneral a recent issue JJ). an article and n soldier, or rather recruit, in particular, we de'slru to enlighten the author about some tiling.: of which lie Is apparently woefully Ignor ant. Ju the first place, ho makes a sweeping assertion that "whenever a man becomes too utterly lazy to rk at any useful occupation he finds It convenient to Join the army." it is very evident that the author knows as little about soldiering as he (loos about the extreme folly ol judging a large matter by a single In stance. If he had ever served in the army lie would not now be laboring under the,. Impression that n soldier has no work to; do. It would glvo us great pleasure lo take that man out with u detail of the; old guard, for instance, and disabuse his mind ot some of its erroneous ideas In regard to work In the army. He goes on to say that "while he (the soldier) does no good to God, country, or friends lie Is supposed to receive tho plaudits of his neighbors." It seems lo us that that Ih putting It rather strongly, mid that it Is not only an Insult to sol diers In general' but Is a rellectlon on tho Intelligence of tho country at large.whlch' supports the army. We should not bu at nil surprised to learn that he had nt some former time endeavored to enlist and had been rejected for It Is not every man, no matter how "utterly lazy" ho may bo or how Incapable of "useful occupation," who Is enlisted when he presents himself at a recruiting ofllce. We thank him for ills statement that "this applies to some soldiers, not to all." ills "observation of the recruits or recent years" leads him "to conclude that the majority are so raw that even tho heat of a tropical sun would not boll them very much." What does lie expect a recruit to be',' Does ho think there are ready made soldiers flout ing nroiind the country awaiting an op portunity to enlist? By Just such state ments as his, published In Irresponsible papers, and read by numbers of Ignorant people, great barm Is done to uu already much maligned though very useful and absolutely necessary occupation, viz., sol diering. While granting that his words may bo true enough ns applied to a few isolated Instances we de.-lre to take exception to the general tone of the" article mentioned, which seems to imply that tho large ma jority of recruits and soldiers are to bo considered as utterly lazy mid incompet ent. If he had used his luagiillleeut pow ers of observation In observing oilier peo ple besides soldiers be would without doubt have observed that there nro black sheep to be found In every walk of life, nol in the army alone.

Vt May :n, NICOTINE VERSUS PREJUDICE, Editor of Tho Tribune Sir: 1 believe, nlllioiigh I nm not cer tain, that It was Aristotle, the ancient Creek philosopher, who proclaimed that, "against prejudice and Ignorance oven tint gods light In vain." . i was forcibly reminded of this adage by coming across, In my promiscuous reading, heveial accounts of the latest in. vestlgatlous, by prominent chemists, both lu (ierutuuy and Kraucc, as to the toxic elements of tobacco; and, ut the same time, 1 happened to remember that 1 had a clipping of an editorial from tho journal called "Tobacco Leaf," in which the "Anti-Tobacco Society" Is Justly idl culod for hardening nlcotlno with thq del eterious effects of the usu of tobacco as nu exlilleraut, Tho nulls, for short, evi dently do not know that "nicotian" Is an active principle ot tobacco and they, also evidently, i'o pot appreciate (ho fact, as demonstrated by iccont timpilcn.pliyslo loglcnl expo Imonts, that nicotine, al though It may Iim Isolated In the labora tory of tlio chemist, when It presents tho form of a straw-colored liquid, which Is not only extremely volatile, but. also ex tremely poisonous to animals, Including man when Introduced Into the circulation, whether by absorbllou or Injection that this fact, namely, the volatility of nlcotlno shows to thu common miimi reu sonur that It Is absolutely imposslblo for nicotine, the active principle of tobacco so-called, to bo Introduced Into, the sys tem of mail by tho act of smoking to bacco, whether It bo by means of plpo. cigur or cigarette. There arc, howovcr, a number of other active principle!) which are produced' by (he binning ot tho ecd mid the conse quent distillation on a comparatively sinnll rcalo lu the act ot smoking to bacco In the presence bf moisture. These disunities nro of so Complex n natiile and so various lu their tinmen cloture that It would be Iniposslblo for mo In iiitinu Ihcm all, titut therefore l will have to bo content lo class them all as derivatives ot coal lar distillation, among which the most prominent are creosote lilnl the phenol group of dlslll' lutes of conl tar. As Is well known, theso coal tar dis tillates have u derided toxic effect Upon the action of the heart mid an they ale not volatile, but can only bo developed In the presence, of moisture (hydrogen) they are thu poisonous iigcnts which produce thn well known effects of excessive Use of tobacco, such ns weakness of cyc-slght, even blindness, partial paralysis, and nil other nllmctils that am claimed to be due to "nicotine poisoning." Like nil other similar narcotic deriva tions, tobacco varies In Its effect upon the constitutions, according to tho soil and climate In which It Is grown, nnd therefore we prize more highly the Hav ana cigar niul the .Mocha coffee than any other llkn products of a different clime. Curl Heller, M. D. A SONG OF' LABOR. I'or The Tribune. This world Is not such a very bad plneo For one who Is willing to work; But she puts u threatening frown on her fnco To the one who tries lo shirk. Milt If one strives lo do his host And his heart goes Into his task, Tho good old world will do the rest And never a question ask. For there Is plenty of work to do, Work that must bo done.; Work for mo mid work for you, And work for everyone. There tiro Holds to plow and seed to sow; There nro llrielis and herds to mind; There Is grain to reap, there Is hay to mow, There is meal and flour to grind ; There are stones to shape and bricks to lay, There Is many a nail to drive; And a thousand tilings lu as many a way That tho worker must contrive. There arc deep, dark mines beneath tho bills, There are countless Arcs to feed; There are factories, forges, shops and mills, And all of thein workers need. For men of brawn', and for men of brains, There is ever a great demand; For, everything that the world attains Must be wrought by Labor's hand. -W. E, P. NO NEED FOR A TARIFF. From the New York Times. When the late Bishop Phillips Brooks, of Massachusetts, sailed for Europe on his last trip abroad, a friend jokingly re marked that while abroad he might dis cover some new religion to bring home with him. "Bat be careful of It, Bishop Brooks," remarked a listening friend. "It may bo difficult to get your new religion through the custom house." "f guess not," replied tho bishop, laugh ingly, "for we may take It for granted thut any new religion popular enough to Import will have no duties attached to it."
