to act with caution and prudence.
They must not allow their willy ene-
mics to put them in a false position.
The issue must be made before the
country. There is no doubt that they
have the winning side of the issue if
it be brought clearly before the coun>
try. The country does demand econ
omy and reduction of expenses. The
people know that the extravagant ex-
penditures are in large part for the
sake of patronage" and controlling
elections. They know, too. that times
are hard and taxes heavy; they know
that the income of government, like
their own, is reduced by hard times
and business depression. They sent
this democratic House to Washington
to reduce expenses and reform the job
berries, wastes, and robberies. They
look to them to stand firm by their
bills. The papers of largest circulas
ton are on the side of the people.
The New York Her aid, the Boston
Herald, the New York Sun and other
powerful journals that express the
feeling of the hour, if they do not
lead public opinion, are on the side of
the House. If they act wisely and
prudently as well as firmly they will
win the greatest victory of the year
in the interest of good government.

The Cool Spring RESERVOIR.

For a whole year before this work was
commenced the GAZETTE opposed it with
arguments that should have been conclu-
sive; that showed almost beyond doubt
that it was not needed and would not be
needed for ten orfifteen years to come. But
the desire for expending money and the
greed for what would stick to the fingers
us the vast amount was distributed, car
ried the point and the then Republican
Council with view to partly keep itself
in power, broke ground and started the
work. After it had progressed for few
months it became evident to all who
would examine the matter that the
Council had gone astray accordingly
the dimensions of the work was curtailed
one-half. It should haze been stopped
then, and We said SO at the time.
1t would have been better to have
stopped the sale Of the bonds, or only so
many as would pay for the laying of the
large pipes in the city where they were
needed, and left the work of the basin
as it was.
1t Is evident now that it is not needed
that our present supply of water is
ample for many years to come. But our
money is gone-about 100000 has been
expended on the reservoir notwithstand-
ing its diminished size, and it is IN such
a condition that it is necessary to go
on and finish it. To complete the work
it will require the borrowing of from
$50,000 to $4,000. The Council havo no
legal right to increase the bonded debt,
and that body is in dilema as to what
is best to be done. 1t is even doubtful
whether the money to finish the work
can be borrowed. Council is anxious to
do that which is best, but the matter is
a serious one and will require time and
careful reflection, before determination
oan be arrived al
