county of their home, then for their town
and lastly for their journals. To such
men and women who know what it is to
face trial and hard work, to live down
eontumely, overcome obstacles and build
up communities, is committed the task of
bringing their brethren of the East to the
State and making their visit satisfactory
to the guests, and beneficent for Califor-
MIA.
The two California associations, which
are working in perfect harmony and cor
dial agreement, ought to meet jointly,
and Immediately upon the return of the
committee they sent to Cincinnati, which
is already en- route for their homes,
they should meet at a point most con-
venient to the Southern Association, while
easily accessible to the other. We should
say Stockton is, of all points, the best for
this special purpose.
The Southern Association, it is true,
has just adjourned, and the State Asso-
citation does not meet in regular session
until March, but their joint meeting
ought to be special and immediate, and
devoted to the one purpose of consid-
ering and adopting ways and means.
1t is vitality essential that the whole pro-
gramme should be laid out in February,
that every member of the national body
be fully and especially advised by per-
sonally addressed communications
touching every detail, the exact cost to
him or her of attendance, the time to be
spent, the rallying points, the routes of
travel, and the like-and all this at the
earliest possible day, since the member
ship must have very considerable time in
which 10 make arrangements to leave
their homes and their work. The earlier
the meeting of preparation the larger will
be the attendance upon the May session
of the national body.

SEWAGE DISPOSAL
The Pollution of the Water Supply of
Many Cities

MANY NlBieSs
The modern movement of population
into cities has produced changes and Gre
ated conditions of which our fathers
hardly even dreamed. In the matter Of
sewage disposal these changes are ex-
ceed1ngly marked, and our urban popu-
latlonS OF to-day are confronted in many
places with the problem in its most ag-
grayated form. The lake cities began by
taking water supplies from the lakes on
the shores OF which they are situated, at
the same time 1rratlonally turning sew
age into the bodies OF water from which
the public supply was derived. This has
leo at Chicago and Cleveland to expensive
extensions of water supply intakes in
search of unpolluted water, and the end
is not yet. On the great inland rivers the
sewage of one city, after flowing a few
miles, is pumped out for the water sup
ply OF another, with the result that the
diseases produced by drinking sewage
polluted water have increased steadily
among such populations in ratio pro-
portlonate to the increase of sewage con-
tamlnatlon. The remedy clearly lies
either in seeking an unpolluted source of
water supply or IN purifying sewage be-
fore discharging it into the running
streams.
In the month of November, 1890, the
Massachusetts health returns indicated
that the number of deaths by typhoid
lever III Lowell lar exceeded that OF the
whole city of Boston. The returns
showed rapid increase at the same time
III Lawrence, and as no similar increase
appeared in other cities the State Board
made the matter the subject of special in
vestlgation in these two. Lowell has a
population Of IS, 900, Lawrence As. 00O and
Boston about 44S,000. Lawrence and
Lowell are both on the Merrimac Law
renee being nine miles down the river
/ from Lowell. Both cities take their
water supply from the river, and the
crude sewage of Lowell is further dis
| charged into the same stream, a short
! distance below the Lowell water-supply
intake. A probable cause of contamina-
ton of the Lowell water-supply was
| found in the discovery OF the discharge
of the objections of typhoid patients into
Stony Brook, three miles up the stream
| from the Lowell water-works intake
1t was found that such discharge was fol-
lowed in proper sequence of time by a
rapid increase in the number of deaths
from typhoid in Lowell, the increase
! there being further followed by an alarm
ing increase in the number of deaths
from typhoid in Lawrence In Deem
Der meteorological examinations Of water
! drawn from the service-pipes in Law
renee resulted in finding the bacillus of
typhoid in the Lawrence supply.-George

ERUPTION of the SKIN c,rea

Ed. Venney, Brockville, Ontario, Can
ada, says:
Il have used BRANDRETH's Pills for
the past fifteen years, and think them the
best cathartic and anti-bilious remedy
known. For some five years I suffered
with an eruption of the skin that gave me
great pain and annoyance. I tried differ
ent blood remedies, but, although gaining
strength, the itching was unrelieved. /
finally concluded to take a thorough
course of BRANDRETH's PILLS. I took
six each night for four nights, then five.
four, three, two, lessening each time by
one, and then for one month took one
every night, with the happy result that
now my skin is perfectly clear and has
been so ever since"

SOME one had the courage to ask the
Salt Lake Tribune to briefly outline the
benefits of adversely. To suggest such a
subject to Woodworking county jour
nalists who have known adversely in
many phases was rather hazardous. The
inquirer might have contented himself
with DR.. Johnson's judgment as to the
uses of adversely, or have read Jeremy
Taylor upon the subject, or have taken
counsel with Bacon or Whatley. All
these hold that trials, the riding of storms
and the breaking of bones with sorrow
tend to produce improvement; are
beneficial in disciplinary sense, and
lead US to think properly of our state"
But the Tribune did not fear the question,
nor to cross blades with the philosophers
and essayists. 1t takes issue with these
thinkers and AYERS that
Adversely is more apt to harden.than soften
hearts; more apt to make people believe that
there is no mercy on earth, no pity in heaven,
than the reYei Sc. We do not believe in adver-
sity as benefcent agent in improving the
Our experience is that the best side of human
nature is generally manifested in prosperity
not in adversely. We believe that the chas-
tening influences of adversely have been over
praised from the first. There is a species Of
false pride CHI adversely will kill, but the
people who are born with that false pride do
not amount to any great deal even when re-
generated.
And we agree with our contemporary
Mere passing trial is not adversely, but
when conflicting winds and black skies
mean wreck and overthrow, and human
sympathy has in it no comfort, adversely
COWS and weakens and puts what is brave
in man in lower state. The benefits"
of adversely have been established in
theory, but there are very few instances
of its beneficence in practical life. All
favoring breezes no man expects, and a
courageous heart is not cast down by
cross currents; but we concur with the
Tribune that healthy mind and honest
heart do not need adversely to develop
them.

AT this writing the outcome of the
Miners Convention in San Francisco is
not known to us in necessary detail, but
the spirit of the convention on its first
day clearly indicated a disposition
amounting to settled judgment to meet
valley and river interests upon level
acceptable to the both. That is to say,
mining interests and river and lowland
Government that it is the desire of each
party that no industry on either side
shall be checked or inhibited, except it is
necessary to prevent infraction of the es-
tablished right and security of the other;
that if engineering or mining science can
devise means for the carrying on of hy-
draulic mining without injury to the
navigable streams and the agricultural
lands, such means ought to be employed,
and to that end the Federal Government
is to be asked to undertake the work of
river reclamation and protection. This
is wise, and precisely the position the
RECORD UNION has held fast to for all
these years. We have unwaveringIy in
sisted that the river and valley must be
protected from the flood of mining refuse;
that hydraulic mining should be re-
strained when it does damage to free
highways and agricultural property; that
when it does not do them injury it should
not prohibited; that the true policy is to
conserve both mining and agricultural
industries by all proper means, and to
welcome any practical solution of the
question that has SO long been an issue.
