WATER FOR THE HILL PEOPLE.

The contamination of the sale Of the
Citizens Water company's property and
franchise to the City Water company,
which we are told has been effected, re-
lieves the hill portion of the city
from the urgency which was set up as
reason why the people should vote for
1926, 900 worth OF bonds in order to con-
struct headworks. ETC., to supply that
portion OF the city with water. The
City company can now afford epeeder
relief to those living in the hills than
could be had even with the bonds
voted and work commenced as
speedily as possible by the city. There
is no doubt that the old company with
its facilities can give the hills a large
supply OF pure water in sixty to one
hundred days, whilst the shortest time
we have heard mentioned in which to
secure new supply by the city is one
year. Nothing, therefore, will be gained
by voting the bonds at once. We have
six years in which to prepare the entire
water system of Los Angeles, both for
the hills and the lower levels, and it
would be folly to cucumber ourselves
prematurely with debt of $4,000 for
fraction of the great work that we
shall be enabled to undertake as a
| whole.
Why this bond election should have
been thrust upon the people in the
midst of an exciting presidential cam
paign has puzzled everybody. The
election could just as we'll have been
called for a time when the people would
not have been absorbed in national and
county politics, and when they would
have had their minds free to examine
the subject calmly and carefully.
There is another feature bearing on
this matter in the result of the state
election which ought not to have been
overlooked by the council. An amend.
upon on the 8th of November which will
doubtless result in authorizing cities to
extend the making of bonds issued by
them to forty, instead of twenty years,
dc hOWs AhNt Ac q NOiy Ill pOltdob
ter to the taxpayers, and nothing but
the EXTREMIST urgency should cause us
to fail to take advantage of the probable
adoption by the people of the amend
ment.
Suspicion always attaches to meas.
ure of this kind when undue and inde-
cent haste characterizes the official steps
taken to carry it through. The adding
of over half million OF indebtedness to
the hard-tested taxpayers of this city is
not such trifle that deliberation and
thorough discussion should not precede
definite action upon it. Snap judgment
is always open to objection, and particu-
larly 30 when it involves 30 momentous
a proposition as the saddling of large
debt upon the pnblic.

States with q Democratic successor to
Hiscock already assured from Democratic
New York in the event that California
should elect Democratic United States
senator. Mr.. Pickering remorselessly
points out the fact that Mr.. de Young's
interest in the matter is one part parti-
zan and two parts personal. The ven-
erable editor of the Call must have
struck some elixir of youth, for he is
laying about him in a way to excite the
admiration of all those of both parties
who would like to see an untrammeled
man 90 to the United States senate from
California.

THE Chronicle returns to its "mut-
tons" on the senatorial question. The
Call, to which it has been the fashion
to allude as embodying all the decrepit
and Silurian features OF journalism, is
turning up with surprising vgor these
piping campaign days, and exceling all
its rivals in declamatory energy, with
just enough Attic salt thrown in to re-
lieve its invectives from the common
place. Mr.. De Young epdeavors to place
his anxiety as to the senatorship strictly
on grounds of devotion to the interests
of the Republican party. The vener-
able Pickering, on the other hand,
pricks this bubble, and shows
the true inwardness of things. In
threnody of touching vibrations
the editor of the ''live" journal depicts
the great dangers of loss of the United

ATTORNEY GENERAL HART has had the
grace to abandon an obstructive attitude
which was uncalled for, and could not
be sustained, in the matter of the issue
of 1896, 900 worth Of sewer bonds of the
city of Los Angeles. This official will
doubtless be little more cautious in
future in meddling with the action of
the Los Angeles City council. The sale
OF the bonds stand. Perhaps the attor-
ney general Will remember, in the
future, that it is time enough to give
his advice when it is asked for, or is in
the line of his official duties.

A GREAT many people are asking why
the Board of Supervisors borrowed s75,-
600 for ninety days from the Sta'e Loan
and Trust company at time when there
were 5000. 900 of the county's moneys in
the hands CT the County Treasurer. On
its face it looks like very curious trans
action. Had this anything to do with
the enormous sums which were spent in
furnishing the County Court House, the
original estimates for which called for
only 900, but were swollen to nearly
500 900. A little light on this subject
would be specially agreeable to the tax
pavers

payers.

THIS is perhaps as good time as any
to remind the taxpayers of Los Angeles
that it costs them just SIP a minute to
run their city and county government.
That is, between city and county, they
are charged just two and quarter mil
lion dollars for such government as the
new court house and the new city hall
deal out to them. We believe we have
called the attention of our readers to
this fact before, but we shall refer to it
again before election day. In fact, we
should not wonder if we were to refer to
it frequently.
