Pure WHARF.-THE water rs now flowing
through the pipes Of the Water Company is
perfectly clear and pure During the greater
part Of the year the water for the supply Of
th, town is taken from Mill creek, but at this
season the creek water is more or less muddy
AMI otherwise impure Tomeet this difficulty,
Col KRAFT, engineer Of the water WORKS, has
arranged durin. the fall and winter months to
take the water from Il large spring that rises in
Mr. Isaacs' land claim. At times when the
creek i muddy and filled with ilnrurity, this
spring Is p-rf- city pure, and hence its Use Is
matter the owners of the water works have
exhibited a comaendable spirit 5f enterprise,
and well deserve t. he encouraged. 1t il the
opinion Of our leading physicians that very
much Of the well water within the city limits
Is unfit for use, and that much Of the disease
that prevails in town Is to be attributed to the
u,,. of this filthy water. Our own conviction
Is that in the more central parts of the town
the use of wei water should be discarded, and
the pure spring water As furnished hy the
water company substituted A regard for de
caliay, to say nothing of health, should induce
I'll persons IL give clean water the PREFERENCE
even II it happens to cost :. few dollars more
The additional expense will be more than saved
In eXrnption from sickness.

"REMEHBER THE Poor" is an injunction OF
divine origin. and at no time should It be more
implicitly obeyed than during the holiday
season. 1t is true that our people are generally
prosperous, and that we have comparatively
few cases of destitution in our midst The
rule is that of abundance, bu: still it is possible
that some Of the less fortunate poor widows
or orphan children find the holiday season
anything but a Joyous period. Let such cases
be hunted out, and in every instance the means
can be provided for relief This is a work to
whirh the ladies' peculiarly called, and it is
TO them we make the suggestion. Let inquiries
b. made in their respective neiyhhorhoods, and
in all cases Of destitution the means Of relief
can he obtained. To an appeal of this charac-
ter our merchants and business men will re-
spond hberally. A little incident came under
illustrate the Eberality Of our merchants. \
family WAS ascertained to be short Of provisions
for the winter. The fact was made known to
the head Of leading house on Main street
His response was. q will attend 10 that %
He Immediately ordered a job wagon up in
front of his store and rolled out = barrel Of
sugar, box of tea, bag OF coffee, oil, candles,
hams, and every article in the line Of provisions
sufficient to supply the family for six months
We never think If this incident without bless
ing the noble hearted man, who although not =
christian 10y faith is more than 4 christian in
practice. And now in this period Of JOY and
testivity let us remember that it is our duty,
one and all, TO remember the poor.

IorIs Foster, the unfortunate youth VINO
WIS acnu;tted Oh the charge of murder, remains
in the county jail. In the early part OF the
week lis father gave bonds iu the sum "f 9Zo'
eG0 conditioned fer the good behavior OF the
boy. but subsequently he applied to be released
from his Obligation, and thereupon Judge
Win,,arl ordered the youth to remain IN the
custody Of the sheriff. The proper disposition
of tn voung man would be To send hIm to 'he
insane asylum, to remain there until his col'i-
ton warrants his going at large. His INSANITY
IS Of the moody rcyeageful character haoie
At ANY time to take a homicidal turn, ami hence
il is necessary that he he kept under close
Guard In the county jail he disturhs the other
prisoners by pacing his cell at night, and under
MI m. circumstances the sheriff would only ne
too r!ad to get rid of him We trust tila'
Judge Wingard Will take it kindly when We "
suggest that the boy be transferred 10 the IL,
sane asylum. where ne can have the treatment
his condition requires.

VEET THIN.-The man Ferry, through the
columns OF his paper, volunteers a very thin
defence of T. NJ. Reed, territorial auditor. The
fact that Reed left California between two days.
and that he was defaulter in a large amount,
is not directly denied The talk about his
having been agent for Wells, Fargo { Co, and
tht being evidence of his honesty, is all bosh.
One of the most celebrated trials in the history
of California Jurisprudence, was that of a
young man who held high position under
Wells, Fargo & Co, and robbed the express
firm out of many thousands of dollars A de-
fence resting on basis ike this is altogether
too thin, and very much Ike "Gamnins 4 man
with faint praise. The best that can be said
of Reed is, that during his residence in Wash
ingtou territory he has maintained a tolerably
fair character. He Is one ot that class known
as "ofiice seekers" and has always been fed
from the public crib. Such men are no benefit
TO the country, and never contribute anything
toward its dereiopernent 1t is an old and
true saving that . it = the first step that costs,
and Reed having proved q de:aulter in one in
stance, is scarcely a proper person to DE en-
trusted with the management of the territorial
funds Like all the balance Of the Ferry
gang, he will bear watching

PLANTING DIsEAsE-ihe piles Of filth, deed
cats, dogs, and garbage of all kinds that for
months have been allowed To accumulate on
Main street, are now being carted away and
dumped at the intersection of Third and Alder
streets. This is in the immediate locality Of the
court house, and looks like deliberate at
tempt to kill off the county officials. The dis
trct court is now in session, and all this accu-
mutation of filth is being dumped right under
his honor's nose We know OF TO reason why
the locality named should I've subjected to this
imposition, l:ll We think judge WinSard might
very properly order TIE immediate removal Of
these piles of filth.

HEALTH IaPEovING-With colder weather
and an occasional freeze, the health of the val
ley is improving Diphtheria has in a measure
disappeared, and few cases Of fever are reported.
II our people would take anything Ike care
the general health would be excellent. Sur
rounded by high mountains and ample supplies
of pure water attainable, all the sanitary con
ditions are in our favor, but GisresariinS the
laws of health, building our houses squat on
the ground, without any provision for ventila-
ton, and using water that has been filtered
through a score of out houses, it is not strange
that the general health has suffered, and that
the under.ailers healse is daily found peram-
bulatirs cur streets. Give nature chance

cies of life-and Wal!a Walla will soon have
