ors would expect proht OF
several thousand dollars probably
five thousand, possibly more, out OF the
forty or fifty thousand dollars to be
expended upon the streets every year
the officials now having charge OF the
work cannot consider themselves COM
plimented by the proposition to take
the work out Of their hands. But OF
course this is just what the City Coun-
Gil will do if that body shall become
convinced that it is its duty to do so.

1t has long been mystery to us how
our City Council had so much work
done upon the streets Of this city every
year, knowing as we have known that
they have annually only forty or fifty
thousand dollars to expend in that way.
But II is now said that the work can be
done more cheaply if let to contract
ors. Considering that the contract

The Eastern War Cloud.

The prospect Of peace between Rus
STA and England is not at all improved
by late advices. Both Powers continue
their warlike preparations, ard it be-
comes more apparent every day that the
war party in each nation is on top. ln-
deed, it may be said that, compare
lively speaking, there is now no party
in either but the war party. Even Mr..
GLADSTONE seems to have concluded
that Russia is trihing with him, and
has taken determined stand while In
st. Petersburg, there appears to be ne
effort to conceal the fact that koMA-
Rolf is the hero Of the hour, and that
the Government is simply playing for
time. 1t is true that some show of
correspondence between the Russian
and the English Cabinets is still kept up,
OF has been kept up to this writing, but
when we consider that Russia did not
resort to her usual game Of ostensibly
oensuring KoMARoFF, but openly COM
plimented him and is now sending him
reinforcements, and that Earl DUF-
FERN is moving troops to Quota as fast
as transport facilities will allow, further
diplomacy begins to look like child's
play.

Coon WATER.-ln boring forn natural
gas at Morgantown, West Va, the other
day, a heavy stream Of soft water was
tapped, which, from the position Of the
well, can be piped throughout the town
and give the place good and much
needed water supply.
And it will always be pure water, the
well being about 1000 feet deep. 1t
is in fact an Artesian well. No con-
tsmnatien of water will ever trouble
the Morgantown people, whether they
have sewers or not. Norgantown is
one Of the most beautiful Of towns.
Sweet Auburn, lovellest village Of the
plain
we applied to it some years ago. lthas
four or five thousand inhabitants, yet
one Artesian we'll may supply all the
water it needs for cooking and drinking
purposes.
