ALLRGHENY's BAD WATER.
Some Suggestions Offered-work for the
Women Of tho Northside.

Soiho ouRSosAons Ouered-Work Tor the
Women Of the Northside.
To the Editor of The Dispatch:
1 have often observed the filthy condition
of the water supply of Allegheny City-the
sewerage, the tan-bark solution from the
tannery vats and blood and offale from
theHerr'sIsland plant and wondered how an
intelligent people could endure such distress
year after year.
l believe that several lines of 8 or 10 inch
wrought-iron pipe could be laid very rapidIy
on the bed OF the river from the water works
to the same point where our works receive
their supply. A sufficient number of lines
can be screwed together from a barge very
rapidly, and as good supply be had as that
which we now have. Ours is above all Pitts
burg sewer.
believe that if all the wa ter works in this
county would add simple device that
would permit solution of alum in proDor-
tion of one gallon solution to 80, 100 gallons
of water to be drawn in by the pumps and
delivered with the water it would precipitate
almost all foreign matter and render the
water clear and good. The Allegheny folks
should have some get up about them and
quit drinking filth when it is so easy to do
better.
would suggest that the women of ALE
gheny City organize general parade and 20
en- masse up River avenue to the vicinity or
their water works to see for themselves the
kind OF stuff they are compelled to USE
Then walk up all the way to Herr's Island
and size up the situation. I'll bet there will
be more "chinning' done on the subject
than has ever been known before, and the
probabilities are that they will just simply
make the men get there without much red
tape. Then and not till then will Allegheny
City have such a supply of water as she
shou Id and can have. JOHN NJ. BRUCE

GIVE THE LAW a CHANCE.

The questions which are likely to arise
under the construction of the Baker ballot
law now reported to prevail among the
authorities will not be the fault OF the law
but the inability of people to agree on a
common-sense construction. There is
much about that enactment that is faulty
End some points that are evidently vicious
but with regard to the form of ballot there
Is no difficulty, if ordinary intelligence Is
used, in arriving at the intent of the law.
The law distinctly provides that in the
case Of nominations by parties s'the names
OF ali the candidates so nominated by such
political party shall be arranged in groups
as presented In the several certificates of
nomination" etc. In the case of nomina-
tons by nomination papers 1.-The names of
the candidates for each office shall be ar
ranged under the designation of the office
IN alphabetical order" There is little
that is difficult TO understand in this. A
different treatment is prescribed for party
and independent nominations. The sep
aration Of party nominations into groups
of State, local or national offices NAV be
possible under the law, but it is by no
means imposed by it.
Perhaps the Baker bill NAV have virtue
enough in the direction of ballot reform
to make it important for the politicians TO
confuse and obstruct its workings Other
wise We see no reason why straightfor-
ward, reasonable adoption of the pro-
visions concerning the form of the ticket
should not be satisfactory to all parties

Now since Peck is an eminent example

HOME FROM THE ARCTICs,

NEWS of the safety of Lieutenant Peary
and his brave wife, with his party, will re-
joice all hearts.-Ne,O York Telegram.
THE Peary expedition was a success. So
was the relief expedition. Does this mean
g few new lecturers and authors?-Bu6alo
Inquirer.
The announcement that the Peary expedi-
tion is safe in Newfoundland will carry joy
to thousands beside the personal friends OF
the lit tie party Washington Star.
THE return of the Kite with Lieutenant
Peary and party is a matter of universal in
tere5t, and so is the success of his expedi-
tion to Greenlund.-NeU York Tribune.
LIEUTENANT PEARY's Arctic expedition was
a splendid success. At the highest northern
point yet reached by civilized man he un-
furled the Stars and Stripes and brought
home with him material which will add
many new chapters to what we know about
the frozen North.-NttO York Recorder.
LIEUTENANT PEARY has been triumphantly
successful. His exploits place him in the
foremost rank of the Arctic explorers OF the
day, If his single-handed achievement does
not entitle him to be fiji st of the heroic band
which begins with Baffin and Frobisher and
ends with Greeley and Peary.-IhttddeEphi
Press.
IT is a great satisfaction to record the
rescue of Lieutenant and Mrs. Peary, for,
however one may admire their exhibition of
faith in themselves and their pluck, this ad-
miration is coupled with the reflection that
Mrs Peary, at least should not have ex-
posed herself to the dangers attending such
an philadelphia Ledger.
The Peary expedition doubtless has &C
complished at least u large part of the pur-
pose for which it was fitted out. Scientific
knowledge has been increased in measure
by the observations ofthe polar party among
the glaciers and ice fields. Beside this, the
possibility of sustaining life and conducting
researches in a very high latitude has been
Bulletin.
THE expedition places Lieutenant Peary
in the highest rank of explorers; he has not
only accomplished what he set out to do,
and proved the value of his ingenious
theory, but he has accomplished all this at
far less cost than other explorers of the
North polar regions. America ought TO be
proud of Peary, and it is probably safe to
say she is.-Brookiyn Standard UIston.

THEIR MONEY DON'T TALK.

The New York Press declares the in
dorsement of the Nicaragua Canal project
by the bankers convention at San Fran
cisco as extremely important. "For, %
says the Press, money talks"
All right There is one way for money
to talk, and that is to put itself up. If
the bankers at San Francisco wish to put
their own money-not their depositors' or
the Government's-into the Nicaragua
Canal project they have perfect right to
do so. But money does not talk to the
value of an oId-fashioned copper cent
when the monetary powers indorse pro-
ject and urgently advise that it shall be
built by other peoples money than their
own. The American bankers may be
very good judges of commercial paper,
but when they propose that the United
States shall invest its credit thousand
miles away from its borders while more i'm
portant improvements in its interior are
left untouched they show themselves

THE SUGAR COMBINATION.

The combination being formed to con
troll the price of sugar by the wholesale
trade is an admirable illustration of the
way in which monopoly at the source of
any diStributive trade extends throughout
its ramifcatons Assertions that the
Sugar Trus: does not support this project
can safely be received with credulity. The
Sugar Trust furnishes the agency by
which it is enforced. Without that COM
bination it would be impossible The
same scheme was proposed in virtually
its present form once before when the
Sugar Trust had control of the supply,
but the moment that competing refineries
made themselves felt the wholesale COM
binatiOn went to pieces. The Sugar Trust
being restored to power, the plan to ad-
vance wholesale prices makes a new ap-
pearance.
The proposition is simply that the liberty
of wholesalers to make their own prices
to their own customers shall be taken
away. The man who commits the COM
mercial crime-fr0m the trust point of
view-Of selling sugar cheaply is to be
punished by cutting off his supply. Of
course the small merchant is Disseminated
against to an extent which will make it
impossible for him to compete with the
larger one who can afford to buy sugar in
hundred-barrel lots.
OF course this is notoriOusly against
public policy and has been declared to be
against the laws time and time again. 1t
is one of the gravest features of the Trust
era that leading merchants, all of whose
interests are on the side of maintaining the
law, are ready to set the example of break
ing it down for the sake of an extra profit

A RLoT on CIVILIZATION.

There is public satisfaction in the knowl-
edge that the military forces of New York
State viii be employed in reducing the
re5elli0us and c0wardly mob in the
vicinity of Fire Island to subsection to the
laws There was the same need for the
assertion of the supremacy Of the law in
this case as at Homestead or Buffalo.
1t has often been said that public peril
brings out the nobleSt and the basest
qualities in man. The people of Babylon
and the Great South Bay district in Long
Island have taken pains to enroll them
selves in the latter class. The men who
could drive off women and children to a
night on stormy sea for fear of an infec-
ton which has no existence and which
could be controlled and limited by the re-
sources of science belong to a class which
it is base tiattery to dignity as men.
A mob is always cruel and cowardlv,
but the Long Islanders managed to COM
bine both qualities to an extraordinary
degree in the same action. The relieving
feature of the case is that they will be
taught the lesson that they cannot defy
both humanity and the law with i'm

EMPEROR WILLIAM MAY COME OVER
His Visit to Chicago Next Year Depends
Upon European Politics.


Upon European n Politics.
LONDON, Sept. 13.-The Standards CORE
spondent at Berlin says: Emperor William,
in his interview with MI. Stelnway, gave
that gentleman the impression that visit
by him to the Chicago Fair would depend
upon the state of European and home poll
tics. Mr.. Steinway was surprised at the En-
peror's knowledge of the position of the
Germans in America. Referring to the fight
against the cholera and the supremacy OF
the Washington Governments over the indi-
Vfdual State, the Emperor remarked that he
wished the same system was fully in force in
Germany. 1t was so, he said, reg arding ami
mails, and it must soon also be so for the uni
form treatment of human epidemics. He
begged Mr.. Stetnway to convey mis- kind re-
CARDS to Mr.. John Bigelow and his regrets
Tor Mr.. Poultney Bigelows illness.
w hen, some months ago, the Emperor
limited to his private circle his desire to visit
Chicago, it was suggested that secret visit
be made, while somebody personated him on
tour to the North Cape, but the suggestion
found no favor. Many people here think
there is no more objection to be made to the
Emperor gong to Chicago than there was to
the Cars visit to the Paris exhibition in
1867.
