PUMPS OR PIPES?

1t is stated by authority, the compe-
tency ofwhich cannot be questioned, that
the difficulty with our city water works
is not. in incapacity of the pumps, but
that it resides in the insufficiency of the
pump lines to carry the water; that if
twenty new pumps were added the serv-
ice could not be materially improved.
This is mechanical statement, and the
proofs of its soundness are such as can be
made clear to a child. In fact, the truth
of the charge has been demonstrated over
and again, and was done with emphasis
at the recent fire on / street, when hy-
drant burst, for the very reason that at
the hydrant the main is sufficient, but
presently tapers to such small dimensions
that the water pressure is packed and
cannot find relief
In addition, it is charged by engineers
of entire capacity that because of pipe
insufficiency there is an enormous per-
centage of fslippage-fully one-third. This
SSAi4S DOs III Vic 11lSoI SlShLSSu years GHe
actual money waste in creating power
has been in the neighborhood of 100000.
In the face of these charges, we warn
the Trustees that they will betray their
trusts if they expend a solitary cent in
the purchase of new pumps, until it is
shown beyond contradiction that the
charges we state are untrue. If there are
pump men who must sell or starve, they
should find some other victim than Sac
ramento
We do not believe that any new pumps
are needed, but are convinced that radical
reformation of the main pipe lines is an
Immediate necessity. If the bondholders
have relaxed their claims to allow city
revenue to be applied to water works i'm
provement, let the contribution go to en-
largement of the water mains. If, how
ever. the string to the grant is tied to a
pump, it will be better to let the 90 per
cent. go towards discharge of the muni-
cipal debt rather than the purchase of a
new pump.
The case is much like that of one who
attempts to push rod through hole
smaller than the rod. The more power
applied to force it through the worse for
the rod and the power.

THE Provisional Government in Chile
has acted wisely in declaring that it's
policy will not be one of vindictiveness
toward the Balmacedists. Judge Montt
says that the full objects of the revolu-
ton have been accomplished, and that
the Provisional Government will neither
interfere in the approaching elections nor
will it follow the leaders of the defeated
party in spirit Of revenge. On the con-
trary, the purpose is to restore tran
quillity to the nation by peaceful and
gentle means. This official declaration
will go far towards quieting the fears of
the people and giving healthy tone to
business which has been so long dis
ordered. Certainly the death of Balma-
ceda has had a direct and potential in
fluence upon the policy of the Provis-
ional Government. 1t has now nothing
to fear from the Balmacedists, since their
chief is dead, and it is therefore wise to
exert itself to win the respect and fealty
of those who were so lately in arms

corning the best time to stop adver-

received:
"When population ceases to multi

"When you have convinced every.

you have better goods and lower
prices than they can ever get any
where else"
"When you perceive it to be the
rule that men who never advertise
are outstripplng their neighbors in
the same liue OF buriness."
"When men stop making fortunes
right in your very sight solely

mighty agent"
"When you can forget the words oil
