Readings Water TrOubIe

Reading seems to have trouble every
summer with the quality of the water sup
piled to the town, notwithstanding the
effort that was made TO obtain pure water
from the hills that closely environ it, The
trouble seems to have come from the very
source that was relied upon to prevent it,
The Schuylkill was rejected because of its
impurity and the reservoirs were filled from
the spring bed streams of the hills. The
consequence has been that such an
amount of vegetable matter is taken into
the reservoirs as to contaminate the water
in the hot season. The damage may
be more in seeming than in reality, and the
water be more offensive to the senses than
injurious in its effects but it does not
suit the taste of the Reading folk after
all the money they have spent to get good
water they want it. They will hardly get
it without abandoning their present sys.
tenn. Large towns need to be supplied from
good sized streams of running water that
is purified as it pursues its course. Springs
and riyulets will not do. \ basin at the
foot of mountain that is the receptacle of
the surface drainage receives too much
matter that is subject to decomposition
Reading will have to go to the Schuylkill
or flowing stream of some size that passes
along one of its adjacent valleys.

Produce the PrOOt.

We rather thought Mr.. Wolfe would not
hold his tongue over the very serious
imputations cast upon his political integrity
by the Philadelphia Press. He writes this
letter to the editor of that newspaper and
It undertakes 30 make rejoinder
SIR-Yonr paper has in substance charged
me with dishOnorably schening for my cleo
ton az United States senator In 1851 with
having sought the aid of the so-called bosses
to make me a candidate for lieutenant gov.
ernor and with having sent word that
would not oppose Cameron's election. i
broadly and emphaticaliy deny these charges
and challenge you to the proofs Please
publish. CHARLES :. WOLFE.
Lewfsburg, June %, 1886.
The Press is not altogether fortunate in
its essay to respond to Mr.. Wolfe's invita-
ton to produce its proofs.
Upon the first subject it only reiterates
in another form what it said before, that
Wolfe attempted to make an ar
rangement by which the Democratic
| vote should be pledged to him in the
| senatorial contest of 1881. 1t produces no
| testimony to sustain this allegation /; it is
| bound to do so. 1t is not true that " no
| fact in the recent political history of Penn
| sylvana is better understood than Mr..
Wolfe's effort, without consulting his Re-
publican associates, to effect Democratic
combination for his own advancement -
If the Press can prove this it will pinch
Mr.. Wolfe but it must prove it, or go
under.
Nor does it prove that Mr.. Wolfe ever
dickered for the nomination of lieutenant
governor. 1t says he " was the candidate
of Senator Cameron and Colonel Quay for
lieutenant governor in lss2," and asks him
if he was not party to that movement,
but it does not prove he was.
As to the third charge that Wolfe sup.
ported Cameron because he got his mar
made paster and folder the Press answer
is equally barren of proof. 1t says 'Un
less well-known men in this state who
whatever their other faults, are not accus
toned to lying, have manufactured delib
| crate falsehood, Mr.. Wolfe did send such {
| message, and it is certain that the rewarC
of silence was paid in the appointment
Who were the men? The Press does no
say. 1t has not answered Mr.. Wolfe's let
ter; and yet it has afforded him a fin,
chance to come back at it.

Welcome the Issue.

When public representatives in legisla-
tive bodies grow negligent in the discharge
Of their duties, and give easy indulgence to
Jobs which individual members bring up,
there is urgent necessity to fall back upon
the veto power of the executive for the
proper protection of public interests.
As rule, executive officers in this coun-
try have been sparing Of the use of this
power, fearing to seem to usurp the legis-
lative function, and to substitute their own
Judgment for that of the legislators en-
trusted with the power and re-
sponsibility of making laws. The
result has been an alarming increase in
onactments of every kind, especially those
Of local and special character and
strengthening of the tendency to run to
legislatures and to Congress for help of
every sort.
The worst abuse of this kind has been in
the pension business. The most liberal
laws and the loosest Interpretation Of them
have not sufficed to satisfy the rapacity of
claimants and the calendars of Congress
are loaded with this class of bills, for cases
which the scrutiny of the department and
its vast machinery for investiga-
tion have failed to approve. Con-
gressmen give no sincere attention
to these bills. A committee may look
into them, but as rule they are
passed for favor by log-rolling. Presidents
heretofore have signed them as matter of
course. At last we have one who will not.
Mr.. Cleveland long ago proclaimed that
public office was public trust. He showed
his sincerity in this belief when he was
mayor of Buffalo. His ringing veto of a
bounty bill passed by the city councils at.
tracted attention to him as candidate for
governor. AS executive of the state he
kept up his record. His vetoes were the
distinguishing feature of his administra
tion. They exposed him to the sharpes
criticism and were the subject of tn,
greatest laudation. They were bount
up in volume which becam,
q campaign text book, and chiefly upol
that issue he was elected president. Hi
own strong personality, fitness and courage
were the greatest aids to his party in tn,
campaign. lie displays these again In hi
intelligent inspection of the pension bills
his fearless resistance of the buncombt
spirit which passed them and his resolute
disapproval of them. But he accompanies
his vetoes with reasons which the people of
the country will read, and which they will
as a whole, approve. General Logan is said
to have welcomed as great national issue
for his party the presidents veto of a
bill to pension man who fell down the
cellar steps while home on furlough. He
has now got another issue in the veto of a
bill to pension fellow who had the
measles in the army and fifteen years af
terward made the circumstance ground fol
pension. We welcome all such issues
The time has come for a safe appeal from
all this bogus patriotism to the intelligence
Of the country.

THE N4NTICOkE VICTIMS.
Remarkable Petition From Their Relatives to
the Governor.


Governor Pattson has received petition
from the relatives and friends OF the miners
buried in the colliery at Nanticoke praying
him to use his influence to induce the owners
of the mines to resume the search for the
bodies. They say that there may be posi-.
bility of some of the victims being yet alive
but at any rate they want them disinterred
and buried in cnnsecrated ground.
They further state that the company has
not done its duty in regard to the digging
out of the unfortunates, and they beseech the
governor to induce the superintendent Mr..
q. Morgan, of Nanticoke, to make the most
strenuous efforts for the recovery of their
bodies, whether alive or dead. The peti-
TONERS also state that the company, and es-
pecially the superintendent showed an in
| difference in this matter which verges on
| heartlessness. They finally entreat the gov
ernor to cause a commission to be at once ap-
pointed, which is to investigate this matter
| and report the results of their investigation.
Governor Psttison has Written G. NJ. vii.
| liams, inspector of mines at Wilkssbarre,
requesting him to make an investigation
into the matter of the petition and report
| thereon.

THERE was a meeting of the Temperance
Amendment Constitutional association In
wiIliamsport on Thursday. There Wolfe
came also, and it is said some OF the good
people assembled threw cold water on his
presence and gave very lukewsrm applause
to his address. He told his hearers he was
not seek ing political honors and he did not
desire the nomination for governor by the
Prohititionists he would do what his con.
science dictated was right but if he received
the nomination aud thought that he could do
better work at the head of the ticket than in
the field he would run. Nevertheless some OF
the brethren regarded him as a politician and
intruder. There are some OF the ambitious

A Game of BuncOmbe,

Mr.. Reed, of Maine, leads the Repub-
lican congressman to make solid front
against the proposition to accompany pen
sion bills with the appropriation of the
money needed to pay them. The good
sense OF such method in pension legisla-
tion can hardly be disputed, and it is evil
dent that it is not the sensible portion of
the voters that Mr.. Reed is catering to. All
such will agree that Congress should know
what it is doing when it gives away the
peoples money, and should provide the
funds to pay its charities when it votes
them.
The free way in which pensions have
been granted would receive a paralytic
stroke ii the money should have to be pro-
vided when the grant is made; for how
ever acceptable congressman may consider
pensions to be to their constituents, they
know that an increase of taxation to pro-
vide them would not be endured. Lavish
expenditures of the public funds in pensions
has caused no outcry because it has been
understood that there was an overfowing
treasury, and this has been by many consid-
cred to be good way of redistributng the
money. But the propositions now before
Congress to make grants to new varieties of
pensioners will require increased revenues
70 cover them. The Republicans propose
TO grant them first and to let the Demo-
cratic administration provide the money
afterwards or take the discredit of the
oenc't. The Democratic majority in Con-
grees declares to the Republican minority
snat II Will not do this but that if the
Republicans desire the new classes of pen.
s'oners to be established they must toe the
mark and face the necessity of providing
the funds to pay them than which noth'
Ing could be wiser or fairer. The Renub.
licans in Congress are showing their hands
too plainly in the game of buncombe thev
are playing. They are making it too eyi.
dent that they are solely occupied with 3
desire to embarrass their political oppo
nents. They would do better to make
better showing of craftsmanship. Tn
t people are not fools, that they cannot dc
tect their very little game.
