THE USUAL RFSULT.-I is not to be de-
MED that good sewing machine is one of
the most important appurtcnances of the
modern household.
We thought we had good machine in
our household until one day the agent OF the
Nep Home presented himself at our door
and proceeded to deliver an Grafton upon its
characteristic merit.
But" we answered, "our machine serves
us nicely and suits US WELL and we do not
care for another"
The agent, however, begged The privilege
of leaving one of his machines with us, 'for
the ladies to try"
The request was not unreasonable so we
granted it-but more to obligc the agent
than anything else; for really we did not
want the machine and had not the rcmotcst
idea of buying 1t.
The machine once in the house, it was nat
ural that the ladies should look it over they
did so, and as Il consequence fell in love
with it. They say that without the slight
est wish to dccry or disparage any other
machine, this, all things considered is, in
their opinion, the most desirable one to be
had.
The upshot of the whole matter was that
the old machine was disposed of, and the
Light Trimming New Home" installed in
our household. 1t is pronounced a genuine
beauty and a real comfort, and "our folks
wanted us to tell other folks about it.
This unrivaled machine is manufactured
by the NEW HOME SEWING MACHINE

tisement printed in another column,) will

lDDTNG TO TIE AQUEDUCT COUUISSION'
The Legislature has passed bill making the
President of the Fire Department member OF
tbe Ameduct Commission No arguments have
beeu presented, so far as we are aware, Ill favor
of this measure that are at all convincing
There has never been any danger that the needs
of the fire service would be neglected IN the IN
crease of the water supply. Indeed, the fear OF
a fire in the dry goods district when Woulu
sweep away hundreds OF millions OF property III
a single night has been, perhaps the strongest
reason for undertaking the construction OF
new aqueduct. There is enough intelligence
and public spirit in the commission as now con-
Sttuted to make it certain that every suggestion
from the Fire Department will be as carefully
weighed and as favorably considered as II the
head of the department occupied seat Ill the
commission.
The tendency of the bill is in wrong drec-
ton. No more city officials are neededsn the
commission The influence of one OF the
official membership Commissioner of Public
Works-is steadily exerted in the direction of
excess. That is the fault of his administration
in every braneh-a constant straining for prodi-
galitv in the use and the misuse of public funds.
The citizen element Ill lnc CollilhlSSloH II ma"
nut to it now to keep Mr. Thompson within
bounds 1t is the representation from the tax
PAYERS that needs strengthening, if any addi-
tons are to be made, not the official element,
Onice-holders are extremely apt to fall into the
habit of despising frugality in public expendi-
ture. Few of them escape the mischleyous
tendency to extray gance. Men who stand for
the taxpayers and for them alone, who have no
clamorous factions and hungry pRrtisans to
satisfy are indispensable to secure prudence
and economy. If the president of the Fire De-
partment were added to the Aqueduct Com
mission, the Oflce-holders would have majority
over the citizen members. The majority ought
to be the other way. The ex-Oiiicio membership
is subject to frequent change, is .burdened by
the pressure of other duties, and is swayed by
political influences which rarely work for good.
The citizen membership can give undivided at
tention to the water supply and is less likely to
be diverted from considerations of genuine pub
lie welfare.
We have no objection to offer to Mr.. Van Colt
personally, and do not doubt that he would be
an efficient public servant in the Aqueduct
| Commission as in the Fire Board. But for the
reasons already given we believe that Governor
Cleveland would do himself credit and benefit
the city by vetOing the bill.
