ed to thoroughly examine and investi-
gate the possibilities. Instead local in
dividuaI wells are taken TO indicate the
result-stop one momnt to tank OF the
necessary result. First we find the indi-
vidual well has been located upon the
necessarily limited area OF the owner,
without any cnance for the water expert
to exercise judgment, and, secondly, the
result Is taken as an indication of the
value of the experts opinion. Perhaps
the result Is satisfactory for the intended
uses, bat II SO, II Is simply business
matter hampered by its own conditions,
of little value in determining the posi-
bilities OF a general supply.
The only locations seemingly valua ple
for city supply in the vicinity OF Provi-
dence are upon vscant land where the
well man finds no employment, for there
are no business interests to demand
water. Until the city fathers decide to
experiment with wells, as they would
any ordinarily promising improvement
in the city's affairs, or until some land
holder experiments as a means of ad
vancing his own valuation, no man,
however we'll acquainted with his sub
ject, can determine the best location for
the best water supply.
The existing conditions of water sup
ply ore proof enough as to the knowledge
OF the owner, whether an individual or
community, and as long as water plays
SO important part IN the life and health
OF man, we must say that unwholesome
and dangerous conditions of supply are
hut evidences of ignorance upon the part
OF those interested, or else complete
lack of suita BILE sources.
recently patented method of artiic-
tally producing a gravel bed where none
bad previously existed, thereby OBTAIN
ing water from fine sand strata without
trouble from the sand itself, has been
employed at the Darling fertilizer works,
Gorham silver works and at Norwich,
New Haven, Fall River and other places.
The underground or buried river Is out
the fancy of writers, who use the excel
lent results obtained from artesian and
driven wells upon which to base their
story, but the story OF the wonderful
river tends 10 incr ease the public's in-
terest in the underground waters.
In closing, i should like to correct
your article as regards Professor Dem
toms death. Ho did not die In South
America, but in Java, while ipvestigat-
ing earthquake causes and effect.

HIGH PRICES.

How long has IT heen since Democratic
speechmakers advocated high prices?
II we recall the campaign of 1892, we
are reminded that the Democratic can
vass was made on an issue, demanding
low prices.
in word, what were called "high
prices" the prices of commodities under
protective tariff. were the especial OBJ
ject of attack of the Democratic cam
paign. The laboring man was then told
that he paid too much for the things he
wore, the things he had in his house,
and the things he mad to eat-all because
OF a protective tariff. Tho people had it
repeated over and over again that the
CONSUMER paid the tax" snd so paid
prices higher than he ought to pay.
And now, here comes BILLY BRYAN and
tells us that we don't pay high enough
prices for the necessities and the luxu-
ries OF life. "Prices are too low" is the
slogan of the Popocratic campaign.
What are we TO believe? What is the
laboring man-who is most all OF us-to
believe? 1t is all very confusing.

The observation, "tbe bravest man we

THE MAYOR AND THE CURRENCY
ISSUE.

"Alayor MCGuINNpss OF Proyiience is
so busy trying To set at work the thous-
ands of victims OF the gold standard that
he hasn't the time 10 make declaration
OF his position on the currency ques-
tion." observes the woonsocket Call. We
don't know as to the "thousands OF VIC
Tins OF the gold standard, We doubt
IL there are thousands" unemployed
berea bouts, and II they are "victims" We
feel pretty sure that il is not the 'gold
quite so dreadful as that we are sure.
Neither is IL quite true that Mayor
MoGUINNEss has not "the time to
make declaration OF his position
en- the currency question" The
Mayor has had both time and OPP
portunity. lie always has the time,
and an inquiring NEWS reporter
has on two occasions given him the OPP
portunity. On both occasions, however,
Mayor MoGUISNEss occupied the time by
declining TO declare himself on the all
important issue that is just now concern
ing his fellow citizens. We don't know
what the Mayors reason can be for
thus withholding his views at this crisis,
for the opinion of the chief official OF
the important municipality of Providence
ought to be of value and would be
believed to be OF influence at this
time. We suspect, however, that seeing
his party divided on silver, the hosts OF
the Hon. HoRATIUs JACK CoNLEY and
of the Hon. RICHARD BUNooMBE Con-
STOCK on the one side and the phaianxes
OF tho Hon SAM BULLOCK arrayed on the
opposite side, the Mayor believes that
his own personal and private political
keeping quiet and letting the procession
60 on without him. We cannot believe
that Mayor McGUINNEss Is n free and
unlimited silver man, for we believe he
is possessed OF too large possession Of
average intelligencu for that. We con-
clude, rather, that in the present con-
dition OF the Democratic party he has not
the coursge OF his convictions and, like
B'rer Rabbit, prefers to lie low and mark
out his political fortunes on the broad
and inviting highway OF non-partisan.
ship and reform, of any old kind, or any
other old thing.
And SO, all he axes Is to be lot alone
on the subject.

THE following verse and chorus are
from the most touching OF the Bryanite
campaign ballads and are accordingly
worth printing as a matter Of record
"You shall not press the crown of thorns up
on the toiler's brow.
This we affirm in freedoms name with pledge
and solemn vow
You shall not cruelty mankind upon cross
OF gold.
The time has como when freemen true shall
not be bought or sold"
Then comes the chorus:
"No crown-ycs. no crown: OF tborns-no, OF
thorns
Shall press the toil-er's brow: Ier's brow
No oross-No, no or oss: of vold-yss, OF 10 Id
Shall crue-i-fy this poor man now.

composition OF the author of the charming
little ditty entitled: "Ob, Do Not Drive

LIKE THE SEA LEVEL.

khe Supply of Gold Keeps Even All Over
the World Where Gold Is Standard.
The inflow of gold into this country
ON account of the tightness of our mon-
ey market is affording sensible relief
to business undertakings of all kinds,
and if these are not disturbed--as there
is every reason to think that they will
not be---by so terrible catastrophe as
the election of Mr., Bryan, it is not i'm
probable that in the coming winter and
spring we may witness the advent Of q
prosperous condition of business affairs,
compared with that which our country
experienced in the year 1880. Ii may be
well TO point out that we arc now hav-
ing gold sent TO this country because we
arc upon gold basis. If, year or two
ago. we had descended TO silver basis,
and there had been for any reason a
contraction in the currency, the relief in
gold that we are now receiving could
not have been obtained. We are now in
touch with the great mass Of gold which
forms the basis Of the worlds circula-
tion. II for any reason we need moro
gold than we have-and this is deter
mined by its earning powers, the rate
of interest--and assurance is given that
there will bo no departure from gold
standard, the yellow metal will come
to this country just as surely as water
will run down hill. Other things being
equal, the worlds supply of gold is
available for all gold using countries to
make good local deficiency in supply,
so that, like the water of the sea, there
shall be substantially a uniform level

But 1t Failed to Have Exactly the Effect
Desired.
The stereopticon has become an i'm
portant factor in political campaign
work. Pictorial arguments appeal to an
audience with u force and effectiveness
which can be secured in no other way.
But wise discretion must be exercised
in making illustrations which are easily
understood and capable Of only one in
terpretation.
A Prohibition campaign orator the
other night undertook to show by stere-
opticon views the terrible effects of
whisky upon the human system. He
threw upon the screen large disk filled
with wriggling monsters and remarked:
Here you see a magnifed drop OF
water-ordinary drinking water. You
will observe that it is teeming with life.
l shall now add little alcohol to the
drop of water, and you will observe
how il affects animal life even in the
lowest forms Of existence. This will aid
us to understand its effects upon the
higher animals and man himself.
WhercupOn the alcohol was intro
duced into the experiment, and the
squirming animRlcules ceased to wrig-
gle and tumbled to the bottom of the
disk, dead. Before the orator could
make any applicat on of his illustration
an old man standing on the curb in
quired:
Say, mister, was that drop of wa
tCr-just such water as we drink every
day."
Eyes, SIR" replied the illustrator.
"Chuck full Of snakes and things1"
GAS you saw moment ago; yes. "
And whisky knocked 'em all out
stiff and cold?'
Precisely. Alcohol is terribly de-
structive to animal life.
"Well, remarked the old man, with
an emphatic snap, II never have used
the stuff, but if that's the way it works
I'm never going to drink any more wa
ter without adding little whisky to IL
first to make it fit to drink. '-Chicngc
