WATER
Is What the People of Ogden Need and Must
Have.

Is What the People of Ogden Need and Must
Have.
No business of any Importance was tran
sacted by the city council at its last regu-
lar session on the 10Th The burning
question of the hour is the scarcity of
water for domestic uses. Weeks ago the
water question was brought into great
prominence by the submission to the city
council of proposition by a local syndi-
cate Of real estate owners, and later on by
the bringing to public notice of what is
known (Or was at the tilne) as the Bear
River Canal Company's scheme. Since
then the question has been ell
aborately and thoroughly dis
cussed by the public press, the
people, ana the city council. Afterwards,
the proposition submitted by Mr. Both
well (the Bear river was conditionally ac-
cepted by the city council, and the city at
torney was instructed to frame a contract.
This was done, but the contract has not yet
been signed.
Regardless of the pushing and crowding
of some of the newspapers and few of the
bona tide citizens of Ogden, the council
very properly has taken its own time for
deliberation in matter of such vital inter
est as the giving over of the water supply
to private control. 1t may be that this is
the best way and only plan available to
secure water supply at the
earliest practicable moment, and assure a
taadv and copious flow of the aqueous
sH1id through the city mains for all time to
CUme; put it is by no means certain that
this is so. Hence, the members Of the CITY
council are justified in making full and
Iearching investigation before binding the
city in any contract which does not abss-
lutely protect the people against future
robbery or trouble of any kind in regard to
the water in the future. 1t is not likely
that the members of cur municipal legisla-
ture will be moved to indiscreet and dam
aging action by the ill-disguised sneers of
TIC Commercial. which may or may not be

Plenty Of Water.

For about week, the residents on the
bench have had a superabundance of water
for domesti; uses and lawn sprinkling,
where but a short time before there had
been a dearth. The secret of this crafty
ing state of affais was cleared up by the
statement of the superintendent Of water
works, who stated that since the leaks in
the pipes and the stealing Of water had
been stopped the reservoirs were full and
running over. This shows that notwith-
standing all the talk to the contrary there
is yet water enough for all necessary pur-
poses when it is properly taken care of.

Assaulted the Warden

Warden Reedy had quite thrilling ex
perience with Johnson, the Streator lunatic
awaiting removal to Elgin. at the County
Asylum on Thursday morning. johnson
was committed to his care on Tuesday, and
being dangerous, was placed in cell in the
insane ward. He was very peaceable on
Wednesday and the warden anticipated no
trouble with HIM, but on Thursday morning
when he opened the door of the insane ward
was struck on the shoulder with an iron bar,
which Johnson had welded with great
force. Just as he was preparing to strike a
second time he was overpowered by the
warden and placed in his cell with manacles
on his wrists. He had, with the cunning
and ingenuity so often found among the in
sane, brok en- out of his cell. and by main
force broken bar of iron foot and half
in length from its fastenings and had he
been able to overpower the warden he might
have made his escape. The warden's nerve
and presence of mind alone prevented him
from being at least badly hurt. The bar is
a wicked looking weapon, and in the hands
of young and powerful man like Johnson,
could easily have been made the instrument
of death.

OHICAGo's PROPOSED OUTRAGE.

1t is always satisfaction to find ones
opinions confirmed by scientific authority
and that satisfaction the FREE TTADER
feels so fully that II is induced to repub.
fish an article from the Bujiding Budget on
the subject of the proposed Chicago drain
age outrage; since this paper has always
maintained that no amount of dilution can
ever so purify Chicago's sewage as to be
harmless if turned into the Illinois river.
While the FREE TRADER is morally GER
tain the outrage will be perpetrated by the
Legislature, the promise of what will fol.
low by the digging of the ditch and the
use of the river AS a sewer, is none the less
interesting. The Buildimg Budget says
If the drainage bill should result In be,
coming law, and finally be carried into
execution, il will further be the cause for
many an anathema TO be pronounced upon
the heads of its promoters by the inhabi-
tants Of the river valley through which the
sewage will flow, polutlng the waters with
which II will be mixed, and throwing oil
its etlluvia into the nostrils of every liv-
ing animal with which IL comes In con-
tact. To provide great waterway which
will answer the uses of navigation, con-
Meeting the lakes with the western rivers,

the drinking wafer of the lake, is an enter
prise which should be strongly advocated
by every citizen of Chicago, and seconded

The Presbyterians Will hold no services in
their church tomorrow, nor on the two
succeeding Sundays. The church is now
undergoing extensive repairs preparatory for
the Rev. Harris II. Gregg, jr., who has &C
cepted call from the church, entering upon
his ministry. The audience room will be
re .frescoed and re-carpeted, and the outside
walls painted. New steps will be built, the
fence taken down and the lot filled in and
sodded. The Sunday school room, pastors
study and kitchen will be thoroughly reno
waited. The Presbyterian people are very
fortunate in securing Mr.. Gregg, He is a
young man Of great promise-thoroughly
scholarly and of pleasing address. This will
be his first pastoral charge and the people of
the city should extend to him every encour-
agement possible. The Presbyterian church
heretofore has not been strong either in
members or wealth. but under Mr.. Gregg's
charge and with practically new place of
worship, together with most excellet choir
there is no reason why it should not pros
per. If there is any one thing above another
worthy of the community's support, it is
weak and struggling church. With the in
creased growth and prosperity Of Ottawa
there is certainly room for Presbyterian
church.

A DISTURBING DECISION.

The Supreme Court Spreads Consterna-
tion I'm the General Land Office.
WASHINGTON CITY, May 2l.-The decision
of the supreme court of the United States in
the case of the United States VS. John d.
Hall in which the court decided, in effect,
that oaths taken by United States officials In
land cases before state notaries public were
OF no binding force, has created consterna-
ton among the officials of the general land
office. The decision was a subject of inter
ested discussion yesterday by the principal
officers of that bureau, and various opinions
were expressed as to its scope and meaning.
Thousands of Cases Affected.
1t was pointed out that there were now
pending in the general land office thousands
of cases which would be affected by the deci-
sion. In committed homestead and pre-smp-
ton cases, in timber culture cases and in
final homestead cases the practice Of the gen.
eral land office has been TO allow final proof
to be taken before clerk of a court of rec
ord or clerk of county court In mineral
cases proof could heretofore be made before
state notary public. None of the officers
named are United States officers
Serious Questions to Decide.
Whether the practice of the general land
office must be changed, and whether in cases
now pending, the proof already taken before
these officers is worthless in the eyes of the
law, are serious questions with Commissioner
Stockslager and his immediate advisers. 1t
is asserted that in nine out of every ten of
the mineral cases now pending in the general
land Office, final proof has been made before
state notaries public.
Commissioner Stockslager has asked As
sistant Attorney General Shields, of the de-
partment of the interior, for an official opin-
ion defining the scope and and actual mean
ing of the Hall decision.

An Attack on Rome.
Renewal Of the Church Fight
at 'the Hub"
A VIGOROUS BLAST AT THE POPE.

''The Sword Drawn and the scabbard
Thrown Away" - The Press Declared
Gagged in the Interest of the Propa-
ganda - Church Councils - What the
Presbyterians Are Talking About -
Woodrow's Case Under Discussion.
BosToN, May 21.-There was a brief echo
yesterday morning of the religious war that
disturbed the serenity Of the Hub last sum-
mer when Professor Townsend, of Boston
University, renewed his attack upon the
Roman Catholic church at the meeting of
Congregational ministers The newspapers
Of Boston were the special subjects of attack,
and the professor berated the managers in
round terms.
The Newspapers Attacked.
I'm Boston" he said, reports of Protes-
tant meetings are often suppressed and those
OF Catholic meetings Haunted before the
public. There is not one of the large news
papers Of this city that has not been working
slmost constantly in the interests of Roman
ism during the several months of the late
Protestant-Jesuit controversy. This conspr-
aoy OF the press of Boston to cheat the public
OF news and facts to which il is entitled is
reproach our civilization, and deserves the
derision and scorn of all honest men,"
War to the Knife Declared.
The speaker went on to claim that a Jesuit
ical inquisitor stands at the elbow of the
editor-metaphorically Or really. The press
was gagged. But" said the professor in
closing, "the sword has been drawn, the
scabbard has been flung to the winds, the
bridges have been torn down, and this con-
troversy cannot come to an end until the
hand of this foreign power no longer shall be
felt pressing with its whitening touch upon
journalism and all the free institutions of
this country, which are as dear as life itself
to every true American citizen
