Whllo Dr. A. B. Somcrs. of the Board of
Health has no idea that tbo cholera will
reach Omaha , ho believes that to bo fore
warned Is to bo forearmed , and consequently
has Issued the following health bulletin and
rules for the proventlon of the dread disease :
First Don't got frightened.
Second Secure cleanliness of person nnd
promises. *
Third Cnro for the stomach. Ithfts boon
demonstrated thnt a healthy stomach -will
destroy tbo germs of cholera , so that should
they bo taken Into Uthoy cannot do harm ;
hence , should wo bo particularly carofui
nboutnur food and dilnk upon the approach
of cholorn.
Fourth An soon as the papers announce
Its pro onca upon our shores wo should boll
all the water we uso.
These piccnutlons arosimplo and easy of
nppllcntion , yet if futhfully ndhorod to will
provo most ofllcaclous. Tbo dangers from
| cholera In Omnh.i nro comparatively remote ,
> but there nro real dangers nt our very
I * thresholds , namely , from typhoid fever ,
> diphtheria and Kindred diseases , and our ap
peal Is to the good pcoplo of this community
\o co-oporntu with the Board of Health In
i warding off UIPSO ever present foes. With n
climate unsurpassed , un abundant supply of
water , which , whoa properly bottled , Is as
good as the best , with superior natural ml-
vantages for drainage. Omaha should bo thu
healthiest rlty under the sun. Unfortu
nately the Board of Health Is not and can
not bo , under the oxiiiing circumstances ,
the power fcr good It ought to bo. The ex
penses of Ibis department ara constantly
larger than the appropriation , nnd yet the
force Is barely lurgo enough to keop'tho
machinery running und altogether too small
to do iictivo. aggressive work. An Increase
of 125 per cent In expense would double the
ofllcloncy of thoi.doportmcnt. . It Is under
thcso circumstances thiit wo appeal to tbo
citizens for uld in cleaning up the ell- .
Don't , then , think an adjoining lot. though
covered with weeds , n sufo place to deposit
garbage.
Don't think the alloys and the streets tnado
for h arcumulailon of household and stable
rofuso.
JJun't think a garbage barrel n safe thing
to nave about the premises ; every accumula
tion of filth , under favoring conditions of
built and moisture , mav become a propagat
ing bed ot the germs of infectious and con
tagious disease. '
Don't make It necessary for tbo Health de
partment to spml nn inspector and tnreaton
*
you with thopoTiallies of the police court to
accomplish so simple nn end as the cleanli
ness of your promises , Including the adjacent
nllv , whllo men pass your promises almost
'dally socking the opportunity.
This work can bo effectively done only at
public expense , but a.ittlo rooro interest on
the part of Individuals would help matters
very much.
Don't use well water when oitv water can
to obtained , nor privy vaults or cesspools
when sewer connections can bo made.
Don't oppose tno Board of Health In its
effort * to help you , but do BOO to it at once
that your house , cellar , outbuildings and
surroundings tire dry.
By the Himplo observance of those rules of
cleanliness. Isolation and disinfection , three-
fouribs of the Infectious and contagious dis
eases are proventablo.
Consider the savlngof expense ; of hours of
anxious watchlnir , and of bereavement from
the loss of loved ones that Is easily within
our roach.

"Tun BKI : cannot do a bettor thing , " said
Dr. liacho , medical oftlcor for tbo Depart
ment of the PlaUo , "than to stir up the
authorities upon the matter of taking precautionary -
cautionary stops in a sanitary wav to prevent -
vent the nnpcaranco of Aslatio cholera In
tbli country. I think the groaloat danger
lies In the possibility of the dreadful disease
reaching this country through Canada. The
Canadian ports scorn to bo poorly
equipped for the exercise of proper
quarantining. and it may bo an
easy matter for n few emigrants carrying
the germs of Asiatic cholera with thorn to
slip Into this country by way of Canada.
> ' \Vo naturally think that bouajso Omaha
is BO far from tno eastern soncoast that there
Is practically no danger hero. That Is a
great mistake. If the disease comes to this *
country ut all It mlcht appear In Omaha or
St. LouU or Chicago , even bafnro It
brolto out In Now York or any of
the eastern seaport cities. With our
rapid moans of transportation the dls-
ease might bo carried clear across
the continent and dropped off at eomo in
terior point by the emigrant coming from the
cholera stricken regions of Uussla or Ger
many. There are ever 2,000 emigrants now
on their way from Hamburg to this country.
They may scatter to all Darts of the country
after they hnvo boon permitted to land.
There Is a vorv grave responsibility resting
upon the hoallh oftlcors In cbargo of all our
ports just now , und extraordinary efforts
should bo put forth ut all points along tbo
Canadian line to have every bltof baggugoand
clothing and nil tno people coming from
tboso foreign countries where cholera Is now
raging thoroughly quarantined bafora being
admitted. I do not think that thuro is dan
ger of the Astatic cholorn becoming an epi
demic in this country this fall. It Is too
I late In tbo season for thnt. Cold weather
l doca not kill nut the dUoaso or tbo microbes

progress ot the malady. I am nfraid , however -

the Increase for the three weeks

the shipments last year were phenomenal ,
and it Is encouraging thin they nro not di

money markets are so well supplied that
some outgo of gold causes no disturbance or

Accounts of cholera In Russia have caused
heavy unloading of pork , which has fallen $1
per barrel , and hogs are -5 cents and lard a
fraction lower , while oil has also declined a

reached 505,000 bales.

At Plttsburg raw Iron Is slightly weaker ,
though some of the works have not yet
llnished repairs , and the window glass works
will not all boju operation until the end of

Trade at Cleveland is good with hotter demand -

At Cincinnati the hardware trade Is 10 per
