Fixing, little village in Sussex, not far
from Brighton, had for long time great
difficulty in obtaining an adequate supply
Of drinking water. \ hilly gathering
ground was near, but nature seemed to have
intended the water for other localities.
All sorts of expedients were adopted to
arrest the mountain streams. but one after
another proved a failure. 1t happened
that Mr.. Ruskin occasionally visited the
district, and the idea occurred to somebody
that he might be able to assist the villagers
in their difficulty. The request was a
strange one, but Rusking began to think
what could he done, and in the end devised
u scheme which has given Fixing as much
water n. it can ever hope to consume.-

A NATIONAL SCANDAL.

New York papers are doing good serv-
ice in directing public attention to the fact
that the fourteen Judges of the two divis-
ions of the Court of Appeals were lodged in
the Windsor Hotel at Saratoga during the
month of June at the nominal charge of SO
day. 1t is said that the judges and their
suits occupied forty of the best rooms in
the hotel. The ordinary charge for single
room is IS, but the fourteen Judges had
forty rooms at about half of ordinary rates.
Judge Hilton rounded off his hospitality
with grand banquet, and it is said that his
well-equipped stables were at the disposal
of the Judges and their families. These
officials are paid ST, 800 year, that they
may be independent of such favors, but
they seem to have jumped at free supper
with as much alacrity as a hungry police
court shys;er would show. The scandal of
the proceeding lies in the fact That sooner
or later the case of the heirs of the Stewart
estate will come before the Court of APP
peas. There may. be no merit in this
case on the part OF the heirs, but
If so Judge Hilton might have let the case
go to the court on its merits. The fact that
he entertained his Judges years in advance
IN Such sumptuOuS manner that the affair
was telegraphed all over the country would
indicate that he had Ii OF much confidence in
MS case. Judge Hilton, as is well known,
Is the chief beneficial ry under the Stewart
VIII. 1t was through the Stewart estate that
he became owner of the hotel which he
seems inclined to use to make fast his hold
on the estate. Judge Hilton holds no Office
and is consequently only exposed to pub
lie censure as an individual. But the
men who accepted his hospitality. knowing
that Hilton's right to the estate would be
tried before them, are public officials The
World gives the names of the Judges who
Jared so sumptuously at Judge Hilton's ex-
pense:
There were fourteen Judges altogether, divided
into the First and Second Divisions OF the Court
OF Appeals, seven Judges TO each division. The
First Division comprised William G. Ringer of
Syracuse, Chief Justice; with Robert Earl of
Herkimer, Francis NJ Finch OF Ithaca Charles
Andrews OF Syracuse, Rufus W. Peckham of
Albany, j. Clinton Gray Of New York City, and
Dennis o Brien of Watertown as Associate JUS
tees. or this division Mr.. GOrham Parks was
Clerk Indeed lie was the Chief Clerk of the
whole august body. The Second Division com
pri>ed David S. Follett OF Norwich, as Chief
Judge, with Charles L. Brown OF Newberg
Alton b. Baker OF Kingston, Joseph Potter of
Whitehall, Irving G. Vaun OF Syracuse Il. b.
Bradley OF Corning, and Albert Haght of Buff
falo as associates. OF this division Edward Ii.
Smith was Clerk.

THE UPPERMosr THOUGHT.

Our ueighboIs OF the Chronicle are still
harping over the idea that THE CALL should
not strive to reduce taxation, for 1t is low
enough when compared with few other
cities, for the Chronicle says:
MIR. Pickering rashiy asserts that the affairs OF
San Francisco are administered in a more lavish
manner than those OF any Eastern municipality.
The only comparative data at hand is that fur
ni>hed by the Census Bureau, in which a list of
one hundred representative cities is printed
together with their expenditures. In this list
theIe are twenty cities whose per capita expen-
dilures exceeded those of san Francisco during
The census year.
The cities TO which references are made.
or at least most Of them, include in their ex-
penses the improvement Of streets as well
as interest upon their debts, whereas in
San Francisco much OF that expense is not
Included in the estimate.
THE CALL only claims what every tax
payer realizes, to wit; that we pay twice as
much as we ought 20 in tina form of taxes.
The Chronicle does not seem to care how
much money is wasted and pilfered, pro-
yiled it can obtain a certain amount of
patronage. 1t is with municipal affairs very
much as it was with the last Legislature.
DE Young seemed willing to excuse any
shortcomings with a Legislature which
would vote for him for an Office or give him
a:iittle patronage The CALL would like
TO inquire whether De Young was ever
known to condemn any act Of men who
would assist him in obtaining a few shekels

ALL BUT REJECTED.

The committee of the Worlds Fair Di-
iectory appointed to consider the charges
preferred against Mr.. Forsythe report that
the charges are of such a serious nature
that his confirmation is not advisable The
Directors, without taking vote on con-
firmation, refer. the charges to the Board
Of Control of the National Commission.
The charges have never been made public
IN specified form, but one of them is un-
derstood to be a constitutional inability on
the part OF Mr.. Forsythe to state the COM
monest facts correctly. Most men remem-
Der such events in their lives as changing
allegiance from the country of birth to one
of residence. But Mr.. Forsythe does not
seem TO know whether he ever made such
change or not. AT one time he considered
himself citizen Of the United States, but
wien question was raised as to the fact he
thought he would go through the perform
ance again. The object of THE CALL in
directing public attention TO the records of
the two men whom M. III. de Young has at
tempted to foist upon the Worlds Fair man.
agement as representative OF C alifornia is
to secure respectable representation. The
Office is not one which De Young should
