ECONOMY IN THE USE or WATER


The Governors veto of the bill for a new
aqucduct will be received with much regret by
the thousands of unhappy householders who
cannot get water above the second story with
the present restricted supply. But the work
will be delayed, not abandoned Meanwhile it
Is of the first importance that all consumers
shall practise a reasonable economy, and that
the Department of Public Works shall carry out
its measures for preventing waste even more
thoroughly and extensively than in the past
great deal has been accomplished already in
stopping the big leaks, but much remains to be
done III lesscDlng the minor ones. The Governor
claims that the present supply is ninety three
gallons daily for each person in the city He
seems TO have been misinfOrmcd on this sub
Ject. The average daily consumption of the
city is over 9O,OOO,OO0 gallons and often ap-
proachcs 100000, 900 on hot days. Controller
Campbell. whose long experience in the Public
Works Department and thorough study of the
subject make him an authority of the first
rank, says that the aqueduct can only convey
to the city 100000 gallons per day. The
resident population of the city is over
1920, 900, and to this must be added large
transient population. Moreover, the elevated
railroads, factories. shipping, etc, Use immense
quantities. If the daily supply at the command
of private citizens were anywhere near ninety
gallons for each person in a household, if the
pressure were sufficient, and if there were no
possibility of an accident to our single aaue-
duct, the people might be contented with the
present state of affairs. AS it is, they are far
from being contentcd.
But we have no disposition to take issue with
the Governor concerning the veto. Argument
Is idle now. There is not likely to be any fur
thcr effort at legislation to increase the supply
until the next session. Our plain duty is to
make the best use of what we have. The Gov
ernor urges the importance of deliberate con-
sideratiOn of all the facts before entering upon
great a work. He does not believe the
scope of the bill was fully understood by the
people Mt large The subject should be looked
at in all its aspects and thoroughly discussed
before the next Legislature meets. The COM
munity should be fully informed of the merits
OF the question, and should then make its
wishes known at Albany in Il way about which
there will be no mistake. Even if the Gov
cmor had approved the bill. time would be re-
quired for the surveys for the new aqucduct
The Department of Public Works can proceed
10 make Such surveys, as the appropriation for
repairs and improvements of the water supply
the Controller says, Will cover the expenditure.
Hence something may be accomplished before
next winter, when bin can be prepared which
viii meet the objections advanced 10y the Gov
crnOr.

THE DAY 'S LESSON

Two continents wait in anxiety by the bedside
of the wounded President. The world has
come to know the man, since Saturday morn
ing, infinitely better than it could have known
him in years of quiet service. 1t has proved
that to know him is to love him. The civilized
world feels for him to-day a warmth of sympa-
thy, admiration and affection which has not
been so widely felt for any other man of either
hemisphere. Busy men turn from the whir of
excitement i'll the London Stock Exchange, and
receive with the widest cheering the tidings
that President Garfield may recover. Kings
and poets, gentle women and stern soldiers, on
both sides OF the ocean, have seen in the noble
bearing OF tho stricken President traits OF spen-

There has been more significant point in
the history of the tragedy mt Washington to
the waiting. brcathlcss Nation, than The part
which his wife and mother have borne in it.
Millions OF mon and women 10 whom the prcsi-
dent was really but Il vague name Il symbol of

cal enemy, have felt their hearts throb and eyes
fill ut the Thought of the fair and delicate
woman, 50 dear to him, whom he had with his
own hands just faithfully nurscd back from the
borders OF the grave, Fastening to him on the
flying train to hold him in her weak arms, to
help him with her prayers and love, in his long
and heroic fight with Death. The sight brinrs
the White House down to a level with the
poorest cabin in which there is love and faith
and makes It's inmates the kin of every house
hold in the land
Nobody has forgotten too, how in the day of
his Inauguration, when he took the oath which
made him ruler of fifty millions of people, he
quickly turned from the waiting dploma:ists
bearing the congratulations of all other rulers,
and from the applauding crowds, to a little
plainly dressed, white haired woman seated
behind him. stopped and rcvcrently kissed her.

news or Saturday was received by the whole
Nation as by one man. America can never
adopt policy of assassination like Russia OF
ireland. The Republican, the Democrat the
very man who the day before with all the fury
OF party zeal would have exalted Garfield as a
demigOd or cursed him as his enemy, stood
alike appalled, at the murder of the man; a
man, too, whom they believed honest, brave
and true. If they had known him to be false
and base their horror would have been the
same. Hence the confidence now felt by all
classes that the deed was the work of an indi-
vluual, not of band of conspirators. No party
In America will ever join together to make
murder trade. 1t will never be necessary
Tor our Chief Magistrate to seclude him

protect any man. But against the violence of
party hate, the Unborn American trait in the
very men who hate him of respect for his hui
mainly, his mother, his wife, for all the sane
titles of life will always prove his sure rampant
and defence.
Yet while the Nation stands with awed heart
and barred head beside that couch of pain and
mortal danger, it cannot wash its hands in in
nocency of his blood. Americans will never
become assassins, but they are Office seekers,
greedy and voraciOus; they are factous politi-
clans, savage and INSCRIPTIONS; and James
Garfield fell a martyr to these national vices.
From the day of his nomination, his quiet
home was invaded and ruined by the merciless
hordcs; he has struggled with them ever since,
and it was disappointed oflice-seeke set on
fire by faction, who fired the murderous shot

did manhood which make him dear to all. So
the older world watches. even as fifty millions
OF free people in this country are watching,
with anxiety, with love and with prayer.
The bearing of the people, too, has been
most honorable. In the presence of an event
calculated to stir public feeling to the very
depths, the people have shown their devotion
to country and their loyalty to law and justice,
In rare degree One cannot know this people
until he has seen them in some great emer-
gency. The firing on Fort Sumter the inva-
sion OF Pennsylvania by Lee. the surrender at
AppOmattOx, and the assassination of President
Lincoln, were events which brought to light in
millions OF plain citizens a nobility of character
strong and grand manhood, which scarcely
seem to exist III ordinary times. Partisanship
is forgotten IN patriotism earnest feeling takes
the place of busy Indifference and best of all,
the people turn in such emergencies, with sub
mission and with prayer to the God of their
fathers, whose goodness has made this country
so prosperous. Duty and Law are not forgot
ten, when the stern crisis comes and the coun-
try is never so little in danger of disorder as in
the presence of those unexpected and tremcn-
dous events which threaten the widest excite
ment.
But the Nation must not be blind to it's
faults. One of them is that the deep impress
sions and convictions of a great emergency do
not go with lis through the everyday life of
after years The sterling patriotism, the readi-
ness to subordinate partisanship to the public
good, the keen regard for law which this crisis
has brought out in millions of citzens-wll
they control and guide in the civic duties of
coming years Will the people put down fac
ton hereafter as sternly as they repress it
nowY Will they hereafter condemn rs rigor-
ousy every disregard of law or Justice for the
sake of partyY Let us hope that something Of
the same spirit may remain. Great events cdu-
cate. This people ought to go from the bedside
of n wounded President with some of his own
lofty and heroic spirit With him to lead
them, or only with his precious memory to
cherish, the people ought to prove themselves
hereafter more worthy of their freedom for the
trial through which they are passing.
