Commi.sion.r c.mpB.lrs Report.

Com m tsstoner Campbelps hepors'
In this document the Commissioner Of
Public Works endeavors to answer, in the
order in which they have been raised, our
objections to the Croton district as reliable
source for the water supply of New York.
But we fear that his arguments are
contradicted by the very factshe announces
in his report as bearing on the question.
He claims that we have been experience
ing an exceptional season of drought,
such as has not been known for half
century. but that additional storage
reservoirs in the Croton Valley will remove
all present difficulties and that New
York will soon have plenty of water.
He regards the drawing of q supply from
the Passaic as impracticable. that 1t
would be improper to raise water from
the Hudson at any point nearer than one
hundred and twenty miles from New
York. that the Housatonic can be drawn
upon and its waters led into the Croton
River, and that the Bronx affords a re-
liable supply for the upper districts Of the
city. Now how does he know whether
the Croton rain shed will be greater next
year than during this? 1t would look
like discounting our draft on the rain
clovis or counting meteorological chick
ems before they are Matched. 1t is
not that heavy rains will not fall next year.
but they will not descend on that particular
area of country on which New York depends
just now Tor a supply Of water. It is located
out of the way of the great rainfalls, and no
amount OF engineering skill can attract the
rain clouds to its valleys. Mr.. Campbell
almost recommends the Bronx as source of
supply, but forgets that that river runs
through settled district, and that its banks
are lined with factories and dwellings, and
that its waters receive the sewage Of these
buildings.

Mr.. Glndstons Tries Blarney.

Mrs OAnostOne Tries oA0Theys
The speech which we print to-day has
doubtless furnished plenty Of material
which the friends and enemies Of Mr.. Glad
stone will use for and against him in future
parliamentary contests. But as an exposi-
ton, or rather explanation, of his policy
toward Ireland we cannot see that
it throws any moro light on the sub
ject than we have had heretofore. Mr..
Gladstone thinks that the disestablishment
OF the Church of England in Ireland was
good measure He also avows that
he is not in favor of voting by
ballot, but admits that as Q REM
edy against unlawful influence it was
necessity He regards the forced
emigration Of the people as calamity
painful and mournful in the highest de-
gree" but calmly throws the responsibility
on Providence, after the manner of the times.
The truth is that Mr.. Gladstone now wishes
that some Of his ex-colleagues, as the self
constituted agents Of Providence. had not
organized the famine and caused the
loss of thirty-three per cent of the popula-
ton of Ireland within few years. The
party Of which Mr.. Gladstone is still the
leader needs votes in Parliament, but above
all the sovereign needs soldiers. Perhaps
on these facts for foundation the whole Of
Mr.. Gladstone's interest in Ireland can be
said to rest. In other words he is making q
virtue Of necessity.
