AT THE WATERwoRKS.- wind
mill aud its pump, having been placed
in position at the new waterworks
last Saturday, was let loose and al
lowed to run. Everything worked
smoothly for awhile and quite
an amount of water was carried up.
At present it is not working as some
thing is wrong with the valves Of the
pump. You can form some idea
about the lifting power Of the mill hy
learning that when the valves refused
70 do their duty the pull was strong
enough from the wheel to lift the
whole length of S-1ncl pipe lover 100
feet) up "a few inches. From the end
of the suction pipe i'll the river to the
end of the pipe at the top of the
tower it is over 2l2 feet, and this
shows that it requires some work and
pressure to get the water up there.
&c. Young is now engaged in con-
structing the building just on the east
side of the base of the tower in
which to place the large boiler which
is in use and stands at the foot
of Madison street.

What IL Means.

The sufiragejamendment is defeated
In the state by nearly as large majority
as the prohibition amendment, Phila-
delphia and Lebanon being the only two
counties giving it a majority. 1t was
more widely disapproved over the state
than prohibition, and IL Philadelphia
had not been swept in its favor by the
agreement of the chairmen of both Dem
Aeratic and Republican city committees
70 support il, the majority against suf-
frage without taxation would have been
much greater than II was against pro-
hibition. Upon the latter issue num-
Der of counties recorded themselves for
the amendment, the northern tier going
that way from East to West as far as
Erie, and the western counties also gen
orally giving a prohibition majority I;
but there was sturdy sentiment
against granting the suffrage to men
Who are not willing TO pay u small tax for
tle enjoyment of their privileges as cili
zens. Ii is very sound sentiment, and
we rejoice at its expression, not the less
that il has surprised MS.
The Legislature should take note Of
this feeling and provide efficient laws
for refusing the suffrage To those who do
not pay their own tax. 1t may be that
there should be some increase in the sum
of this tax demanded as prerequisite
for voting, which is now but twenty-five
cents but what is certainly demanded
is that the tax should I've secured from
the voter, and that political parties
should not be permitted to pay il for him.
A penalty of Imprisonment imposed
upon such payment would stop it; as
the working politician would not care to
run the risk of Jail. Certainly no one
will say that this tax has been retained
by the people with view Ia its being
paid by political parties. There is law
now requiring the payment to be made
by the voter, and il is this law that the
people have expressed their desire TO
have sustained. They want every voter
to pay tax and this instruction of the
vote on the amendment cannot be mis-
taken.

The Prohibition Shrek.

State Chairman Palmer seems to ex-
pect the prohibition cause to rise
Phpnix-like from its ashes but il is
always thus with the side that goes
down. Hope is not easily crushed in the
human bosom but one would think
that 20 decided decision as that lust
rendered by Pennsylvania should suffice
to commit the Prohibition party not
only in the state, but in the country, 10
very long sleep. 1t is possible that
another generation may reverse the
verdict but if so il vii! be because the
friends of temperance have not done
their duty. II is they who are on deck
now and to whom is committed the
suppression of the evil of intoXication.
Prohibition as IA remedy having been
rejected, the coast is clear for the trial of
strictly controlled license system, of
which the basis is fairly established by
the present laws. The aim of the law
viii be TO protect society against the
abuse of intoxicants and it will seek 10
accomplish it by confiding the sale of il
10 those only who show their ability and
disposition to observe The law and pre-
vent intemperate drinking.
Mr.. Palmer is very much dissatisfied
with such friends of temperance as
these. He wants 10 take liquor by the
throat and throttle it at once. He would
forbid everyone its Use that some may
not abuse it. And it has been remark
able feature of this contest, that very
many people who use intoxicants them
selves, were prohibltionists. A great
many We're employers Of labor who have
been put to loss by the drunkenness of
their workmen; and many were them
selves workingmen who wanted 10 lie
Kept from temptation. See the vote in
Ciearfield county aud the adjacent min
ing country, In favor of prohibition.
Such results have been surprising their
instruction Is that the prohibition vote
was not the vote of temperance men
only, just as the vote against prohibition
was not that alone Of liquor drinkers. Mr..
Palmer cannot claim 10 have led solid
phalanx Of temperance men. Some of
bis army disliked rum as much as he
does, but big number disliked il only
~ its consumption by Others, or wanted
h.lp from themselves.
There Il big crowd of people in the
world who are ready 10 restrict Others
but unable or unwilling to restrain
themselves; this prohibition amendment

The Chicago POlicc.

The conduct of the Chicago police In
The Cronin case is worthy Of close atten-
t3on. Itwould appear that their opera
lions are directed with stupidity, ras-
Cality or Indifference. They began by
noisy but careless search for Cronin's
body while giving great Importance 10
the hazy riimors that he was yet alive.
Then his body was found by accident in
. place that any intelligent searcher
would have examined among the first.
This seemed to arouse the police and
they entertained the public with n series
Of more or less important developments
and some unimportant arrests. Then
came that Maroney and Mcdonald sem
sation and the absolute failure to iden-
tify the men, following a strange care
lessness in the form Of the demand for
them. Now they have promptly re-
placed that sensation with another from
Manitoba where man named Burke and
troubled with three or four aliases, has
been indicted reluctantly by the grand
jury because he rcsembled a man I'm n
photograph of the Carlson cottage. He
Is said to I've disposed to turn states evi-
dence and may perhaps rival that
voluminous confessor Woodruff, who is
another worn out pet witness of the po-
lice. If the police of Chicago were man
aged by and for the benefit of the enter
prising papers of that city they could
not have worked better 10 keep up in
terest, but the public is growing weary.
II Chicago wishes to hold reputation
~ community where the law Is re-
spected and murder discouraged she had
better shake up her police force. II vii,
not do to trifle with this Cronin matter.
The existence of murderous league
can not be tolerated by free institutions,
for it menaces that personal liberty
which is at the basis Of popular rule.

Compared with the Conenhaugh disaster
the terrible dolugo in the Delaware valley
and its tributary streams in June, 1862,

villages were swept away and nearly 2n0
lives lost in the Lehigh region alone
There were many frighttul experiences
during that nOud,' SAYS an old Wayne
county lumbcrman, land one especially is
still the wonder of the valley. A tramp

lie was intoxicated. lie awoke from his
drunken stupOr To find himself floating on
the haystack down the river in
roaring food This was about four
o'clock IN the afternoon. The haystack was
knocked to pieces against a bridge six
miles down the stream. Riley WAS thrown
into the mass of wrCckagc with which the
river was filled. lie ciung to an outhousc,
which was wrecked i'll Cochecton Falls, "A
mile below the bridge. Riley was borne
along the crashing logs and piles of other
drin for seven miles, and ut Narrowsh
was carried up against one of half n dozen
rams that were moored in Big Eddy at that
place. Before he could reach shore the
RATS were broken from their mooring by
the Hood and swept on down the river.
They were all wrecked in the narrow rap
ids two miles below, aud Riley found him
sell at the mercy of the flood, clinging to
the ragged fragments of the ran he was on.
On this he rode thirty miles, when il was
reduced 10 two tirnhers in the wild waters

III was then dark ciinging tn the LASH

ever encountered. At daylight he passed
through the Delaware gap loo miles from
his starting place, The passage of the
most dangerous place in the river, Foul
Rift, near Belvidere, which only the most
experienced pilots will attempt 10 run
raft through, was made by Riley's float
The rift is three miles long, and RATS have
been known 10 clear ii in eight minutes.
In passing through this rift Riley was sub
merged nearly the entire distance. An
hour and a half later his timbers were
thrown upon pile OF drift against the
Easton bridge, and he was rescued. He
was nearly nude and was terribly torn and
lacerated The distance between Cullicom
