While the southern streams ale
bank full and in many cases pour
ing their floods over a thirsty coun-
try, the Father of Waters is dry as
a convention politician at the close
of an all night session. This shows
that there is little valley drainage
there and that the drouth is severe
where in general there is abundant
rain. This is but an indication of
the difference in the streams of
prosperity that flow in each region.
That of the southwest is bank full
and running over, that in the
region farther north is drying up
and daily growing more and more
indiscernible. 1t is a long lane
that never turns and it is a long
drouth that does not turn up it's
toes to the daisies.

The Paris Advocate charges
treachery and cowardice in the
settlement OF the tariff question by
Congress. There is no question
of the cowardice, but as to the
treachery there is nothing on record
to carry out this idea. Where
there is no principle and no pledge
there can be no treachery, and it is
well known that the Democrats as
a party have no tariff creed, nor
the semblance of one.

THE SEWER WORK.

The action Of the Joint standing
Committee on Sewers, in unanimously
knocking the contract fever out OF the
Commissioner of Public Works and his
astute and willy assistant, is TO he com
mended. It was only yesterday that
the writer discussed the question OF
contract sewer building in the city OF
Providence with the Overseer OF the
Poor of that city and the latter de-
clarcd without hesitation or equiyoca-
ton that that system Of doing the pub
lie work there was the curse of his
city. A horde of Italians are imported
10y every new contractor, who are Of no
practical value 10 the wealth and bust
ness of the city and the Legitimate
residents were crowded out, and many
were forced 10 apply 10 the Poor De
partment for aid when, il the work was
given to the bona iide residents, it
would be the means Of relieving many
of them of the necessity of seeking
aims.
This goes 10 show that the Sewer
Committee here has acted none too
soon. Had the contract work got
foothold il would have been hard TO
drive il out. But it being prevented
from entering, il will be the easier TO
keep clear of the pernicious system.
OF course il would be ensier for the
Commissioner and his assistant TO su-
perintend the building Of sewers by
contract and drive around and look at
them occasionally, than 10 have the
responsibility Of their construction on
their own shoulders
II they are unequal 10 the occasion
they know that there is way open to
relieve themselves of the task. But
while they are paid for their services
they are expected TO do the work as
signed them by the City Council, and
not shift il on 10 other shoulders and
hold their indemnity bond and then
point with pride" TO their early pru-
dence and forethought.

there are hundreds of laborers in this

residents and taxpayers of this city see
with regret that the city government

making of certain sewers, which action
means that the contractors for the
work referred to will employ thc

at the present time means the importa
