Eels i'm London Water.

FAIL MIL OdZ6LLes
The inhabitants of the east end of Lon
don are now suffering from plague of eels,
which comes to them in their water supply.
The fish which the East London company
are distributing to their customers are easily
visible to the naked eye, for somo have been
found no less than eighteen inches long,
and the mains abound with them to such an
extent that the local board of West Han
has complained to the local government
department with the view of having some
remedy applied. Eels are, it is true, a
toothsome dainty, whether SpatchcOcked,
stewed, fried or in the form known to diners
at Greenwich as anguilles a la Toulouse,
but those in East London, instead of full
filling their destiny by being legitimately
caught, skinned and cooked, have fashion
of committing suicide in stOpcOckS and taps.
There they decOmpOSe, with the result as
illustrated lately of causing the water to be-
come horribly putrid, and OF giving some
thing very like typhoid fever to the unlucky
consumers. A whole family has just been
laid PROSTATE in this way, and one or two
Of its members are still seriously ill. The
company have been appealed to with little
result. They say that three years ago some
Of their fiIter-beds burst, and that the un-
filtered water Oh that occasion made its way
into the mains, carrying with it a number
of minute eels and other fish, which have
since spawned and multiplied in the pipes.
The mains have been repeatedly flushed
with the object Of getting rid of the in
truder, but without success. and the COM
pany's engineer is only able to tell the SAM
tary authority that he does not consider
that the water is injured by the eels as
long as they are alive, though he admits
that dangerous nuisance may arise from
them when dead.

GRAND FORKS. Dec. 17.-Your cor

Councillor W. Z. Collins bill for the reg
ulatiOn Of railroads and warehouses in Da-
kota. 1t is voluminous, covering forty-two
pages of legal cap and embracing thirty sec
tions and is maturely considered and well
digested. evidently having been the subject
of many conferences and patient study. 1t
embraces many of the features of the
Massachusetts railroad law in respect to
common carriers and some features of the
Illinois commission. 1t makes the
commission vital feature and gives
the commissioners ample arbitrative pow
ers between the people and the railroads,
with the right to demand and prescribe
remedies for wrongs complained Of A
notable part of it is the right to proceed in
the name of the territory for redress in the
supreme court, or in the district court,
where the complaint is localized, should the
recommendations of the commission fail.
Every contingency is covered. The law in
such case is to be enforced at the cost of
the territory. Due regard is had for all
just rights OF railroads, as WelEaS the peo-
pie. A provision is incorporated saving
the right to common law remedy if an APP
peal to the commission should fail, but
while case is in hearing by the commits
sion. which is invested with the powers of
commissioner in chancery to compel the
production of books and papers and attend
ance of witnesses. 1t prevents discrmina-
tons and has provision against pools, SINH
lar to that in the Cull0m-Reagan conference
bill. 1t is the councillors intention to be
on hand in due time at Bismarck. where he
has already secured his quarters. and to
subordinate all interests to the fortune of
this important measure. Practically North
Dakota looks to him as the leader in this
respect. and he realizes the importance of
his position as representative OF the agri-
cultural interests.

Take the judges of the territory; have they

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-The term of the
Office of the postmaster at Milbank, Oak,
will expire in February next. Candidates
are making their appearance. The Office is
one of the best in the territory. and is now
held by A. II. Lewis. editor of the Grant
County Review. Mr.. Lewis used to edit a
Democratic paper in OwatOnna. MINI. He
could receive a reappOintment if he wanted
it. But he says, in a letter to friend:
This is the only public office | ever held,
and | never want another. When [ am out OF
everything else but my 'printshop' I'll be a
happy lad again." Mr.. Lewis was secre-
tary Of the Democratic committee of the
first congressional district in Mime SOta.
He was known as an active Democrat;
yet the office of postmaster was given him
upon the recommendation of Hon. John B.
Raymond, becauSd he was the best man in
Milbank for the position. He accepted the
office. with the understanding that he
would not be tied up politically by it.
When Judge Clifford was making his can
vass. he referred to Mr.. Lewis as "a rene
gade Republican, But he must have
known all the time that Mr.. Lewis was a
Democrat, and always had been one.
When he was appointed, Hon. Mark
Dunnell
EXPRESSED SURPRISE
that man who had opposed him, in his
paper and on the stump, should receive an
office under Republican administration;
but he said Lewis is good fellow any
way" Thus he obtained the Office un-
sought, being known as a Democrat; and
he has held it until the present. He will
be glad when the time comes to give it up,
so that he may have more time to devote tC
his paper. He has invested 81, in a
postotfice outfit, which gives Milbank one
of the best equipped and prettest Offices in
the territory; and he will probably loose
heavily on that when he retires. Aside
from his desire to devote more time to
his printing business, Mr. Lewis says:
Il want to get out of the office. because
am Democrat. and believe that l can do
more for my party outside of the Office. y
Moreover. he wants to throw back into
their faces the ISLANDERS which some have
uttered that The changed his politics fol
the sake of an Office Among the candi-
dates for this Office the name of G. c. Mid
dlebrook appears. There are, also, on file
in the department certain recommends
tons which indicate that Mr.. Mlddlebro0k
will be the man appointed to succeed Mr..
Lewis. Mr.. Middlebrook has a good rec
ord in the Office OF the superintendent OF
the railway mail service. He ran a pOsta
car for some time, giving satisfaction to his
superintendent. Besides he has been al
assistant postmaster, andwOuldn't commence
work like novice. This much attention
is given to the Milbank Office because it anC
its postmaster have recently been the sub
iect of Republican animadversions and pc
Iitical ISLANDERS. 1t is celebrated case.

there is absolutely no question of the right

he believes that it can be demonstrated
