J. WESLEY DURHAM who has charge of
the artistic end of the Quay campaign, says
that he had superintended the distribution of
about 5000 buttons containing the portrait
of the Senator. Of this number he has sent
$4,000 to Allegheny, and he said the Quay
demand for Quay buttons throughout the
state is so great that enough cannot be had to
satisfy it, and he points to this as indicating
that no one else would have show for
President in Pennsylvania if the choice were
left TO a popular vote.

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for any
season, but perhaps more generally needed in
the spring when the languid exhausted
feeling prevails when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of a tonic and altera-

has often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act more

Improving the Water Supply,

whole matter resolves Itself into a ques-
ton of dollars and cents on the one hand
and the health and comfort OF the people
on the other.
1t is true that all sorts of assurances have
been given the people OF the District as
TO the hea aithfuhness of Potomac water and
Potomac mud. but none the less. there is a
prevailing prejudice in favor. first. OF TAX
ing water and mud unmiXcd. and second,
III hd wing the former as pure and as free
from baciih and bacteria as possible. Wash
ington is a healthy city. Its rate of NOR
tllity is not excessive. In the matter OF
diseases, it is principally afflicted with
those that arise from maiBriai conditions.
These are largely originated and propa-
gated by impurities contained in the water
used for driu king. A sand filter would re-
move the Ia ST trace of these impurities.
Opposition is made in Official quarters
to the filtration plan. II is held that pre-
cipitation will answer every purpose. Men
who have made a close stud Y or the matter
say it will not remove impurities, though
IL may clarity the water to a certain eN-
tent. 1t Is essential to have pure water as
well as clear: hence a filter is not only de-
sirable. but necessary, as a part of our
water works.

Dry Docks ard Naval Stations.

them where access is easy and n suffI-
cient depth OF water 'can be had at all
times, and they ought to be as fully
equipped for the work that is to be done
in them as any navy yard. A navy with
out dry docks is Ike a wagon running on
three wheels.
Another need of the new navy is naval
stations. or these the United States has
none. Nearly all our large battlcships and
cruisers have but comparatively limited
coal capacity. Few of them can steam at
full speed more than ten days or two
weeks without being compelled to recoal.
AT present, when on foreign stations. they
have TO get coal wherever they can. In the
event of war they would be embar-
raised beyond all description.
While Great Britain has encircled the
globe with naval stations and has formed
a Gordon of them around the United States,
we have rested supine and remained indif-
fcrent TO the danger that lies concealed
In such policy. We have rejected every
opportunity that was offered us to acquire
such stations, and still are making no effort
In the direction of obtaining them. 1t is
worse than folly TO thus invite what might
turn out 10 be a national disaster and
another policy ought to be entered upon at
once.
The evening times., 1896-03-28

Though the Indiana has at last been sue
ccssfully floated into the dry dock at
Port Royal, 'he fact remains that the con
ditions of tie water there are such that
a large war vessel can only enter the
structure at certain times. The delay in
docking the Indiana has been exceedingly
expensive and it is calculated that the
whole operation will cost not less than
S100, 900. AT that rate the appropriations
for our naval establishment would have TO
he increased very materially.
Another remarkable fact is that the
men and the tools for the operation of
dry docking the Indiana had to be brought
from the navy yard at Norfolk, and it also
develops that at none of the government
dry docks are the necessary appliances
within hundreds OF miles. Such condition
of affairs is simply absurd and calls for
immediate rectificat ton. A dry dock with
out men and means for docking a ship
might as well be at the bottom of the
ocean Us anywhere else.
% If-the country is to have an effective
navy the necessary accessories should also
be supplied. First and foremost among
these are dry docks, where the vessels can
be cleaned and repaired. There ought TO
bc not less Than three or four OF these on
the Atlantic coast and at least two on
the Pacific. Care should be taken TO locate
