a STARTLING STATEMENT.

In another column we reprint an article
from the Marysville Democrat in which
the people of Sacramento are editorially
advised that Marysville dumps thousands
of loads from odorless excavators upon
flats washed by the high waters of the
Yuba River, and that these high waters
riseabove the level ofthe Marysville ceme-
teries. 1t is added that town and city
filth is drained into the Sacramento
River and its tributaries, and that the
flow of this matter is increasing. What
ever the quality of the Sacramento River
water may once have been, it is not now
fit for domestic use in the opinion of the
MarysvilIe paper. We commend the
article, which appears to be fair and dis
passionate, to the class of people going
about and declaring that they have fat
tened on the river water for the past
forty years. Possibly, but where will
these men find warrant for the assump-
ton that for the future the river is to be
as it was at one time in the far distant
past, uncontaminated

FALSE REPRESENTATIONS.

Enemies of the clear water experiment
stand at the corner groceries and shout
and moan: "They are trying to take
away the last thing the city owns; they
are trying to give away the only thing
that is revenue producing Water
Works." OF course, these men know, if
they do not it is their fault only, that
what they say is untrue. No one is try
ing to give away or to sell the Water
Works. The revenue producing agencies
ofthe city are not one whit reduced, or
particle impaired, by the proposed new
supply. We will collect just as much of
water rates, and just as we now do. We
will pay to the bondholders the 80 per
cent. just as we do now; no one could va
cate that obligation even if they wished
to. We will own the Water Works lust
as we do now. The water contractor can
not touch or use them, except in case his
works break or burn down, or his supply
fails, he is to be permitted to and must
operate our pumps under our super
vision until he can make repairs, but
not exceeding six months, and during
that time he is to receive but two-thirds
pay. That provision was put in by the
water committee, not at the request of the
contractor, but to protect the city, and
prevent possible water famine.

CHEAP AND GOOD MONEY.

Has it ever occurred to those who
clamor for cheap money that there really
can be no such thing? Bad money there
may be, cheap money there cannot be.
Because money, if good, is a medium of
exchange of commodities having value.
If the value of the commodities rise or
fall, the medium of exchange does not.
1t. to be good money, must have value
that is not fuctuating, in the sense that
commodity values are.
Men who demand cheap money ex-
press, perhaps unconsciously, the desire
to get money without giving full value
for it, to get something for nothing.
''There is no magic of law or finance,n
says Mr.. Cordley, "by which dollar can
be put into any mans pocket except in
exchange for commodity or collateral"
This is but the restatement of an old
truth in new form. Money is good or
bad, but cheap it cannot be because
cheapness implies the opposite of good
ness in money.
If a dollar circulates that does not
stand for full dollar of labor, commodity
or other value, it is not what it pretends
to be and hence is bad money. To call it
cheap because made of silver is a trick of
words, but not truth. 1t may be conve-
nient money because more enduring than
paper, more easily handled than gold
but in the true sense it cannot be cheap
and good money at one and the same
tin,a

lone afternoon we were having cozy

She hung it up.

and second time the piece bag fell

came OF the hook and dropped on her
head.
'As she picked it up for the third time
she turned toward me with most an

the sottest, mildest, most honeyed and
caressing accents: D that piece bag!'

WATER IN NEW YORK.

New York uses l6O,OOO,00O gallons of
water daily. Her supply is the Croton.
But with all her care and her guards and
her fine stone and steel pipes her water
becomes impure and has to be disinfected.
Yet the Croton watershed is all guarded
most jealously.
So great has become the necessity for
purifying the water that, says HoyDe,,S
Weekly, New York has resolved to disin-
feet the water supply before the stream
comes to the distributing pipes.
But how is this to be done? To handle
so much water with chemicals is ont of
the question. An ingenious device has
been hit upon. We quote from the
Weekly the description of it:
It consists merely in passing the electric c,,r
rent through solution Of sea-water. or
where this Is not available, through ordinarv,
salt water, and decomposing the salt solution.
The hypochlorites formed in this way act
powerfully On al organic matter and -baya
been shown 10 be effective IN the destruction
OF cholera germs and other micro-organisn1s
which give rise TO so many diseases both in
man aud in animals While at the same time
counteracting the enects Of the other noxious
accom- panimentS OF drinking water. such as
The nitrites.
The first plant to carry out the system OF
6islutectants was erected at Brewsters. q town
some sixty miles from New York, and the re-
suits nave proved so satisfactory that an ad-
ditional disinIecung plant has just been put in
operation near he Sodom storage reservoir,
where 6O,o0O,OoO gallons Will be treated
daily. anu similar plant Will be erected at
Tne kensIco storage reservoir.

WILL YOU DRINK TIP
Read What Is Said About Sacramento
River Water.

From the Marysville Democrat
The Trustees of Sacramento are con-
slderlng the question of a supply of pure
water Tor the inhabitants OF that city,
and 1t appears from reading the newspa-
pers published there that there is some
opposition to it. Whatever opinion may
have been formed of the question by past
experience should have but little weight,
when considering the benefit to result in
the future. The time was when the water
nowlng from the mountains through the
several channels and forming one grand
river at Sacramento was in far different
condition than what ii now is. Then the
hydraulic monitor had not caused the
BED OF the stream to be filled to the ex-
tent IL now Is, nor had the water been
polIuled by the wash from the mines and
thotsand farms. Each succeeding year
since then the population adjacent TO the
stream has increased, consequently the
olIaI ana NTH that is the natural result
mas grown IN proportion. The discharge
through sewers of cities and towns GER
talnly add to the impure condition of the
wafer, ana although the amount is small
compared to the volume of the great
stream, the poison thus disseminated will
some of 1t find lodgment in the system
Of the people of Sacramento who drink
the river water. There are hundreds of
loads OF eXcrement taken from the vaults
OF TINS city each year by the use of odor-
less eXcaVators, and the contents hauled
to the sand flats south of the Yuba River
and deposited. When the high stages Of
water come in the winter these places are
secured out by the current, and it is also
true that water rises above the surface of
our cemeteries. To say that this does not
poilute the water and render it unit for
constant use by human beings, would lie
an insult TO common intelligence. Every
succeeding year this state of affairs will
be worse, as is apparent to every person
familiar with the situation. 1t seems
strange that the existing condition at sac
ramento has been endured for so many
years without experiencing an epidemic
OF disease Of some kind. TO say the
least they have been very fortunate i'll
this respect. But it is crime against
nature 10 continue to force such impure
water down the throats of the citizens
when few dollars Will give them sup
ply OF pure water.

THE DISTINCTION.

Let the voters not forget that the people
are not to pass tomorrow upon the Clark,
or the Oak Park, or the Booth, or the
Louisiana, or any other well. They are
to pass simply upon the question whether
OF not we shall agree to prospect for
water being made, and in case it is found
whether we shall take the supply. Those
who talk so learnedly about testing the
water first, should advise the city how it
can test water that is not yet developed.
1t will be time enough to test it when it
is presented for acceptance. If then it
comes up to the requirements we will
take it. If not we will be left precisely
where we are now.

NOT A NEW THING.

The Lakeport 4 UdIdnche says that the
purpose of the approaching Road Con-
vention is ito place road work upon a
scientific basis" Scarcely. That has al
ready been done. 1t is agreed that road
building is business, and should only be
undertaken by those who are skilled in
1t and well informed upon the science.
No. the most the California convention
can hope to do is to devise means to dis
seminate information concerning the
scientific basis upon which good road
sadly wanting in California. That is to
say. the truth has frequently been pre-
sented to the people, but only in a few
Localities have they accepted it. The con-
vention will do the State an lmmeasur-
ably good service, if it does no more than
plan means of educating the people out
ofold and uneconomic methods and into
ideas COMFORTING with the new and eco
nomic systems, which are so nearly allied
to the best there is in civilization and
human endeavor.
1t would indeed be an achievement that
would make California famous for all
time, and deserving the gratitude of all
mankind, were it its privilege to place road
making on scientific basis; but as we
have said, that was done long ago; that
accomplishment came with the growth of
knowledge, the advancement of the arts
and the discoveries in the realm of sci
ence. 1t was not the product of the
genius of any one man, nor the result of
the labors of one people.
