The Treasury dopartmcnt Is much gratified
at the attitude of the steumshlu companies In
so promptly manlfesttnc a destro to assist the

of this country the dreaded scourge. With
their hearty co-operation it Is sure that much
can bo accomplished toward this desired end.
The ofllclnls of the government having
charge of the enforcement of the quarantine
-laws of the country are unquestionably much
concerned over thu serious hold the epidemic
of cholera has lakcn in Europe and view the
situation us rrtzards thu admission of the ( II-
scaso into the United States with some
alarm although they fool fully prepared
and ublo to cope with it iu case , by uny
chance , cholera should become an epidemic
ho re , a thing , however , not at nil anticipated.
The marlne hospital service , which 's ' imme
diately under Iho supervision of Iho Treas
ury department , has nil matter rol.itlni ; to
the quarantine scrvlco in ch-irgo , nnd is bet
ter able now than at any time since its estab
lishment to prevent the Introduction of
the disoast ) into the United States. Of lute
yours the method and system of quarantine
have been greatly improved nnd ut all the
stations along our seaboard now disinfecting
apparatus , boarding steamers and o > her
appliances bavo been provided to detect nnd
.prevent disease from being brcjght into this
country by vessels from abroad.
An official of thc > service in comparing the
methods practi'vd by our country nnd these
of England spoke of ours ns being fur better
England ho said did not bellovo In quaran
tining ns it too greatly interfered with om-
itierce , nnd everything was midesubservient
to commerce In that country. The cases
of the two cholera-stricken patients

out as an example of the danger
which might arise through the English quar
antine system , n thing which would never
occur here. Whllo tbo disease mlcht bo
brought into the Canada border from Europe ,

when its external Influence in commerce waste
to bo larger than over boforo. The won : of

the annual picnic and meeting ot the asso

Iho cltv. Tno association has n vice presi
dent from each township. Under a rule of
the association each vice president made n
report in writing of the condition , progress
and advancement In each township irom 1874
to the present time. The several reports
were road. They all showed un advanco-
inont uuparalcllad In any country and
indicate tliut the farmers who came
nero with no nionuy nnd nothing but.strong
urns , were each nnd nil now the owners
of Una farms , line bouses , well stocked
nud the territory that when Just settled
was n wilderness was now n community of
happy homes. After tuo reading of reports
a number made short speeches and among
others .1. W. Tipton. mi ardent republican ,
wa called upon. Ho said that without
question all that was said in the several
reports were true nud that being so , It was
hard to understand the reason for so much
calamity howl.
Kit ward ICrlck , the Independent candidate
for tbo legislature , was upon LU foot at once
and objected to .tho speaker's remarks for the
reason ho was talking politics. Ho probably
realized that thu several reports were good
ropubllrnn doctrine.
Mr. Tipton was cortalnlv excusable , for If
there ever was n time in tlio history even of
old settlers when a republican was under
sufficient pressure to ralso 1,000 pounds to
tbo square inch of pure republicanism , it
certainly is the present time. McPhoely ,
the chairman of the congressional committee ,
smiled when his attention was called to the
report lu the World-Horald of yesterday
from ibis city , stating that certain repub
licans in Hastings were not giving Mr. An
drews honest support , and in answer stated
the article did the contloman named injustice ,
nnd thot ho know that every republican in

As reported inlho teloar.lphlOt ulspatohos ,
nsovoro engagement took place Just bcforo
the stcnmshlp sailed , nt Ciudad. Bolivia ,
details of which IHO now at hand. The battle
tlo occurred outside ottbo town when Gen *
crnl Cali'fas canted cbnrgo to bo made on
tbo cnumv. The rovotuilonlsts stood their
ground llrmly and suffered consldorablo
loss. 1'boy next mot the government troops
with machottos and foiichi with great fury.
The soldicra of Calcras were repulsed ou
this charge and foil back , carrvlnc tholr
wounded.
Alter u short rest the troops were reformed
and aKnln iittackod the rebels. The lighting
became genera ) . Calcras rode nt the head of
Ins men nnd urged them on. Ho wus nit off
from the main body of hU llttlo tmnv and
with hulf a dozen of his men found himself
surrounded bv u largo number of the enemy
all eager to kill him. Ho fought for his llfo
as stubbornly as ho could , but ho wns Ilnully
knocked olt his hors.0 and killed. The
government forces rallied nnd forced the
rebels to rotroat.
The consul's ' advices from the government
nt Caracas contain the news of an imnortant
nnd bloody light that took plnco August 0 ,
near Villa do Cura , In whlnh 1,503 men nro
said lo bavo been killed or wounded. Gen
eral Valionllla had concentrated 'J.OOO mou
some dlstunco from him. General Mundosu
Is considered the bravest nnd ablest of Von-
czuclan generals. Ho planned to load tlio
revolutionists tinder Valionllla into an am
bush and destroy thorn. Ho sent a forcu of
800 men from his army under command of
General Xolaoga to march where tno robots
woro. His instructions to Xolfioga were
to approach tha enemy and apparently
offer thorn battlo. When they should
commence to light , the government
troop * were not to Ilro in return , but , wcro to
slowly retreat and draw the enemy on until
the main nrmy appeared , when u general on
slaught would oo made und the revolutionary
army destroyed. Zolr.ogu drew ii'jar to the
force of the rovolulloniMs and was attacked.
Tholr Ilro told with great effect and the gov
ernment general fell dead. Without u leader
his troops forgot their Instructions und , en
raged nt thu death of tholr commander , they
returned the Ilro of the enemy and n hot
battle began that raged with great tury.
'Iho force of 800 men found themselves op
posed to 2OuO but fought ou. The revolution
ists hud several Held pieces and thcsn rnkod
tbo men. The battle continued foV several
hours with varying SUGCOJS. The modern
rillcs and bettor training of tbo government
forces produced great loss on the other sldo.
The revolutionists throw their forces on
cither side and alinoit surrounded the 800
men. The latter saw after n time that the
battle was going nealnst " them and tried to
cut their way out. Both rides seemed to
have become crazed and fought furiously.
The dead lay ou all sides and the wounded
were trampled on f s the scene of conflict
changed from place to placo. Late In tbo
afternoon the remnant of the government
force succeeded in getting through the lines
of the cnomy. They boat n hasty retreat to
u distance , when they gotalittle needed rost.
The revolutionists were too weal ; to pursue
thorn. It was then discovered that .100 of the
800 men had been killed , und the government
estimated the revolutionists bad lost 1,000.

The policy ot this government from tlua
time forward In dealing with Camidn ls well
dullned. The minimum measure of retalia
tion has only ns yet boon resorted to. What
has been done docs uot bi.r moro aggressive
nnd damaging retaliation If there U u neces
sity for it. It Is probable that at no very re
mote period the retaliation by this country
will bo extended to the transportation ol
goods nt bond across this country If Canada
mnlutalus her present attitude. The threat
contained In Mr. Herbert's letter that Can
ada will not cease her discrimination ngalnst
the United States If the president's procla
mation enforced , is extremely ollouslvo to
this government nnd It Is felt that Canada
ought to romotnbcr that vvhllo the Canadian
Paclllu railroad ti QUO of the strongest hi the
world now It would bo worth very llttlo It
the outlet for Its commerce through tbo
United States would bo cutoff.
Tnoro Ls lib privllogo enjoyed by the
United States through courtesy ot Canada
u hluli Is of as great value as this of tranship
ment , of goods lu bond which wo permit
through our territory. Canada Is to a largo
oxtcnt a sapper on this country for her sub
sistence nud K an unprofitable as well ns a
disagreeable neighbor. Tboro Is no doslro
ou tbo part of the United States government
for the annexation of that province with Its
present debt nnd the present outlook 13
rather toward the cutting off of nil relations
rather than toward any bonds of closer com
mercial Intercourse. Those best Informed
on tlio subject say that Canada will ba
practically helpless once deprived ot the
prlvllodgos enjoyou through this country ,
tier population instead of Incroasiue by n
normal percentage Is less than one-third
what u should bu nud she would bo la u very
bad position If compelled to rely ou her own
resources.
