years ago, when we were clear down
In the mud and mire. There is not
now a single paved or grayeled street
in the place, and the sidewalks are
chiefly of plank, and none too abund-
ant. The factis, the town has grown so
fast of late years the citizens have had
no time for anything else but individ-
ual building and private enterprises.
If the present dullness will give them
time to push out some good systems
OF local railroads and improve their
streets and internal polity, it will be
a blessing to the city that it was visit
ed with a breathing spell" l notice
among the improvements three
or four fine churches being built. If
they will supplement these with as
many first class school houses (of
which there is a lamentable def
cieney), and organize more
thorough and efficient free public
school system, it will be found good
investment. l did not see a single
public school house as good as the
poorest of our Evansville school
houses, in which our people take so
much pride.
Everywhere 1 go. among these
young western cities which have
sprung into existence within the
last ten or fifteen years, 1 find
better hotels than in Evansville.
Omaha has three or four very good
houses, we'll sustained, and so it is
with any of these enterprising towns
of SIX or eight thousand inhabitants.
While in almost every other respect
we can compare ourselves faVorably
with the cities Of the Westof approx.
mate population, in this direction We

while, when it is more forcibly made
apparent that it is iDjuring our trade

WE copy from the Terre Haute
Express an article relative to the ex-
tension of the Evansville & Craw-
louisville Road to Chicago. The ex-
tracts from the Lafayette Journal,
contained in the Erpress's editorial,
shows the great Importance which the
shrewd business men of Lafayette at
tach to our enterprise, and the neces-
sity they are under to devise some
new outlet whereby they may retain
the Chicago trade with the Southern
States, in its present channel through
that city. We think, with the Er-
press, that the efforts of the citizens
of Lafayette will be futile. The ex-
tension Of our road to Chicago con-
stitutes an airline, than which a
shorter cannot be constructed. 1t
must, in the progress of a few years,
become the great connecting thorough
fare between Chicago and the Cotton
States-the main artery from the
Lakes to the Gulf.
The importance of this line has not
been fully appreciated by our PEG.
pie, owing in part, no doubt
to the fact that they have not
been called on to aid in It'll
construction But the day is MOI
distant when they will regard it, II
connection with the Evansville &
Nashville Road, as the chief source
of their prosperity and wealth.
In the meantime our city is left t.
concentrate all its energies in the
early construction of the road into
Southern Illinois, thereby anticipat,
ing the Louisville and st. Louis en-.
terprise. With a bridge across the
Ohio just above our city-where the
natural facilities for building one are
known to be ezcellent-the freight
from the territories of the Northwest
will seek the Gulf and the Southeast
over the Evansville and st. Louis
Road in preference to the Louisville
aud 90. E.vrEis. gfGuUU III Une map
will show that We will have the best
line, and very difficult it is to divert
freight and travel from the shortest
and best lines. These facts should
inspire our people to put forth every
exertion and cheerfully endure many
sacrifices in order to enjoy the great
prosperity which smiling future
holds out to them.

such be the case, can not a company of
citizens be formed under fair charter
who will furnish the means required
to construct the works, having the
city guarantee them a fair interest on
their investment, or let them collect
the water rent. We are aware that
there are serious objections against
what are called water monopolies. but
many of these objections could be an
ticipated and removed by the pro-
visions Of the charter under which the
company may be organized. In our
judgment delay in securing a sufi-
cheney of water to cover all contin-
cies from fire Is exceedingly dangerous.
As our city increases in population
and manufacturing establishments are
springiDg into existence on every
square, our citizens are finding ii
more difficult to obtain a supply Of
good water for domestic purposes
The cisterns become foul from the
accommodations of dust and other
offensive matter which collects on the
tops, and is thence washed b.
the rains into the cisterns. At bes
the supply is very precarious, and hai
to be so economical that many of thu
comforts of life. growing cut of a FREE
use of good water, are uneDjoyed.
We call the attention of our PEG
pie to this matter that they may thinl
about it, and be ready to sustain an,
undertaking which promises to Civ
them a good supply of pure water a
reasonable rates.

THE hybrid ticket recently put In
nomination by the Democracy of
Hamilton County, Ohio. don't seem
to create any great amount of en-

out early in the game. The people

are not so easily humbugged as in
days gone by. It is suspected that

Water Works.

The city of Covington, Kentucky,
held an election on Monday, to deter
mine whether the Council should
spend three hundred thousand dollars
in establishing a system of water
works. The subject has been dis
cussed in all its length and breadth by
the citizens of that city, and what is
known as the HOLLY system seems
to stand highest In favor. VIM. @.
WEIR, Engineer of the Holly Com
pany, after careful survey, has fur
nished the city authorities with an
estimate Of the cost of the works in
Covington, all complete, including
thirteen and one-quarter miles Of
pipe and pumps with the aggregate
capacity Of five millions of gallons of
water per day. The following is a
copy of that estimate:

The pumping we'll alluded to is for
the purpose of obtaining clear and
pure water. 1t is proposed to take
the water from a pit dug near the
river, into which the water from the
river will seep through the bed of
coarse gravel that underlies the river
and the adjacent land. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY asserted that plentiful supply
of pure water can be obtained in this
way without serious dificulty-purer
water, In fact, than is obtained by any
western city.
We do not know that water works,
similar In character to those eontem-
plated by the people of Covington,
could be established in our midst,
though we see no reason to prevent.
We are confident, however, thatno city
In the west stands in greater need of a
good supply of pure water. Our wells
