The city of Philadelphia is informed
by the competent chief Of its water
works that in a portion of the city the
water pipes would not furnish the water
to extinguish a confagration. They are
choked with rust and dirt and need to
be relaid. He also informs the people
that some sections Os the city are sup
piled with water drawn directly from the
filthy SChuylkill, without the interven-
tiou of reservoir in which it may he
purified. These statements are undis.
puted and yet the councils hesitate to
provide the money to furnish the people
with good and sufficient water 1t is Il
very foolish hesitation. Philadelphia
collects an enormous revenue from its
people. It should at least give them
water fit to drink.

THERE are a number Of reasons why the
Republican party must go. Some of them
are trenchantly stated in an article to be
found on our first page to day. But no
authority on the subject is more pc.u-
rescue and vigorous than such stauuch
Republican papers as the New York 7Im,s
and Harper's Weekly.
L. HARPER JEFFRIEs, Republican can
dtdatc for controller of Philadelphia, IN
accepting the nomination intimates that
he does so only to obtain vindication for
his former defeat. Mr.. Jeffries should be
warned by the fate of some national states
men who went to the people for a vindica
ton little more than two years ago.
BEN BUTLER has secured the GreenbaCk
vote Of Massachusetts,, scoring the first
knock down in the coming gubernatorial
fight. Tho bold Benjamin proposes to
make things pretty warm for his RepubIt-
can opponent, and he will doubtless kick
up great deal Of dust on the track before
ho settles down TO the home stretch con
test.
IL the search for uotoriety propricty re-
ives but little consideration. a. Baptist
minister, one Justin ID. Fulton, has re-
Gently drawn public attention to himself
by u base aud unprovokcd attack on Mon.
siGnoT Capel, the distinguished Catholic
divine now on loc!uring tour ia the
United Statos. Ia demagogic style he
deals 10 coarse iuslnuatious concerning the
Sisters Of Charity, endoavoring to excite
public prejudice against them, and asserts
that The Monsiguor besides being person.
ally impur' is an embezzler of q trust
fluid. These revolving charges against a
preIato whose character in Europe is ire
ProacLaOle, and whose odifying conduct in
this Courtry has dsarmcd hostile criticism,
naturally arOuses . great deal Of ndigna-
ton against their unprinciplod author.
Eu. as the latter would be only too well
pleased to be Involved in a public quarrel
with tho celebrated cleric, it would seem
better to ALLOW his brutal rantings to 90
