THE CITY WATER.


If you will talk to any of the men who
are trying to purchase the city water
works and obtain control of the water COM
ing into the city he will tell you that there
is no money to be made in the scheme.
The probabilities are that he will prove to
you by figures which won't lie that it will
be utterly impossible to make the money
invested earn interest Some go so far as
to say that they believe the company which
buys the works and the water will lose
right along, as it will be impossible at the
present water rates to get returns from the
capital. Others will make it clear that the
investment cannot possibly earn more than
the expenses for the first twenty-five
years; they think that after that period, if
the city shall grow and prosper, as they
hope it will, possibly they may make little
money.
These gentlemen are either fools or they
assume that their listeners are lacking in
common sense. Men of large means are
not fools, and those who are trying to buy
the waterworks are all supposed to be rich.
These men expect to make money out of
the scheme. They know they will make
money, otherwise they would not think Of
embarking in the enterprise. They know
| they will make big money, otherwise they
would invest their money in other under
takings, of which there are many herea-
bouts, all insuring handsome returns. They
see in the control of the water good deal
more money for the capital invested than
there is in mining, in banking, in merchan-
dising, or in any other investment they can
make. Men do not risk million dollars in
enterprises which promise failure from the
start. Nor do men like those who are
seeking to buy the water permit their
charitable instincts to get the better of
their financial judgment and induce them
to spend large sums of money for the pub
lie benefit. Self is foremost with all these
men, and if they do not repeat the WANDER
BILT expression they think it.
The fact is, there are mighty few
schemes in America that would yield
greater returns on the money invested
than this one. Everybody in Salt Lake
city would be at the mercy of the
water company; everybody would be COM
| PEELED to pay tribute to the company, or
| failing to do this, would be forced to leave
town. The more we think of these propo-
sitions to purchase the water the louder is
our protest against their entertainment.
The council should at once sit squarely and
emphatically down upon the projects, and
thus relieve the people of the nervousness
which has come upon them. The council
should say once and for all that it has nc
water to sell, and thus give the charitably
or recklessly inclined gentlemen OF wealth
to understand that they must look in
other directions for squandering thei,
money.

KATE FIELDS editorial sanctum is a
pretty room in the big Shoreham fiat,
Washington. 1t has an extensive library,
grand piano, two mahogany desks, sew
eral capacious easy chairs and many evil
dences of luxury. KATE will never know
what real newspaper work is until she
grinds out copy with hard pencil, impro-
vises soap box for desk, uses nail keg
for chair and has paste that arouses the
suspicious of the health inspector every
time he comes around the corner. KATE
can never be newspaper man surrounded
as she is.

GOVERNOR FERRY, of Washington, asks
the newspapers to say that under no cir.
cumstances will he accept the United
States Senatorship. He goes further and
says that at the end of his gubernatorial
term be wants to retire from public office
and pass the remainder of his days at his
ease. AS the governor is politician the
Senatorial aspirants will do well to keep
their eyes on him.

The CORRESPONDENTS are wiring from
Washington that the STRUBLE- CULLoM bill
will probably not be heard from again this
session of Congress. We sincerely hope
they are correct in their conclusions, but
the friends of republican government
should not be lulled into inactivity by these
quieting reports. There should be no ces-
sation of effort until the Infamous measure
has been certainly killed beyond hope of
resurrection. Remember, the cunning
enemy never sleeps.

tirely bald-headed; it then broke out on my

The Texas Spring Palace is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources of the state.
1t is not fair, in any sense of the term,
but 'Karporama "a picture of the
fruits Of the soil, the orchard, the gar
den, the farm, the forest, the mines,
the streams-each wrought into form
and shape with great ingenuity and ar
tistic skill. The visitor who attends the
Palace to see crazy quilts, lace handker-
chiefs, embroidery, threshing macbinss,
clothes wringers, ETC., etc, ~ VIII find
these articles conspicuoustofTy by their
absence. The graiRssof the country ne
will find represented by beautiful pic
ture of thesgoddess of the forest, con-
strueted of cereals, and clad in raiment
made of the same material, the whole
presenting veritable picture, beautiful,
attractive and pleasing. Every product
of the soil is treated IN the same manner,
and when finished the whole Palace pre-
sents more the appearance of scene
from Fairyland, than gathering of the
products of the earth.
In addition to this the threshed grains
and other products are presented by
samples in show cases, on shelves and in
glass jars, neatly arranged for exhibit
ton.
The birds of the state are there treated
by the Taxidermist' 3 art, and the fishes
swimming in their native element, in
glass aquariums. There are also the
song birds by the hundreds, whose voices
ill the building with sweet notes, attest
ing their appreciation of the beautiful
scene that surrounds them. II were
futile to attempt a description of this
wonderful work. A few have attempted
it, and we reproduce the efforts of some
of the more distinguished. The Fort
Collins (Col.) Courier condensed the
whole in a single sentence, exolaiming:
''It rivals all the visions of youthful
fancy
The Buoyrus (ohio) Telegraph, recog-
nizing the poverty of the English Ian
guage to do the subject justice, said:
''It is INDISPENSABLE. The greatest ex-
position ever before the people. One Is
dazed by the splendor which greets the
eye"
The Evansville Qnd.) Courier said:
cit is a magnificent structure, built
entirely of products from Texas. It is
grand object lesson, showing the world,
at glance, what Texas is, and what she
has to offer to capital and immigration. -
The st. Louis Globe Democrat made an
effort to enlarge upon it to some extent,
but it found the task of minute descrip-
ton hopeless one, and after founder

Cotton.

The Dry Goods Economist New York; COM
ments as follows on the general cotton condi-
tons at the close of last week, the TT ans
actions at this market having been
about 700 bales. Under the influence OF
light receipts at the ports, large exports to
Europe and steadily decreasing stocks at the
ports and interior towns, prices continue very
steady for spots at II 7-l6c, and contracts about
u he same range. At the ports and interior towns
March y the stocks amounted to 53I $50 bales,
or 2kJ,O59 DaIes less than at the same date last
year. 1t IS this deficiency, with q good demand
from abroad and large consumption at home,
that holds the price where it Is and may compel
higher values as the season advances. Liver
pool reflects an equally stubborn market, and
wlta the sales OF average quantity, prices are
steady at sgd. for middlIng uplands.
Contracts have been dealt in to the extent Of
Z-O.VJO bales, with the fluctuations limited to
i've points, or II 20 to l.. 45 for April deliveries.
me receipts Of cotton al all the shipping ports
for the week ending to-day have been SO, 534
bales, compared with &c, 449 bales last week, and
IS, 5Jt bales the same week last year.
Total receipts at all the shipping ports since
September have been 5.57I, O74 bales. against
80 .z So bales the same time last year, and o.
1876 2gJ bales in 1855
The stocks at all chipping ports amount to
- iVJ bales, against 539, 900 bales for the same
date last year.
The total exports to Europe from September
to March . amounted to {, 353. al bales, COM
pared with ) 9'3, $50 bales for the same time IN
The total cotton that had come in sight from
September to March 81 amounted to 6,9l7 SOP
bales compared with 6,6ll, 057 bales the same
time last year.
Egyptian cotton continues in increased de-
mand by English spinners, and count of the
stock at Liverpool March II disclosed q de-
hciency of 30 per cent. as compared with the es-
tlmated stock, and showed the quantity as less
than at the sems date last year. As finer yarn
