AS TO INTERSTATE COMMERCE..

'The right of the United States Government TO
regulate Interstate commerce cannot says Mr..
Bryan, abe questioned. and the necessity for the
vigorous exercise Of that right is becoming more
land more Imperative
Yes. little more than two years ago young
right Backed up by an Anarchistpardoning
Governor named Altgeld, he violently and riot
Olisly denied that right 10 the Federal Govern
ment and claimed it for himself. When the Gov
eminent attempted 1.-THE VIGOROUS exercise Of that
right he raved against Federal encrOach-
ments' and organized something very much like
an Instruction The Federal Government sent
some troops to vindicatc its right to regulate
interstate commerce. and had an injunction
issued against Dcbs. epjoin.ng him not further
to interfere with Interstate commerce, and when
he defed the injunction locked him up for con
tempt Of court
And now Democratic National Convention de-
nounccs such use Of force by the Government rs
"a crime against free Institutions" and espe-
cially objects to the issuing of that injunction as
n highly dangerous form Of oppression" And
William J. Bryan "unquatedly indorscs" that
denunciaton and that objection. And yet he
says with his best cocksure grandlloquence:
"The right Of the United States Government to
'tloned. and the necessity for the vigorous exer-
"clse OF that right IS becoming more and more
imperative"

slve bayonets Of the veterans. Desertion, fever
and the machete will make short work with
them.
The Cubans. too are making preparations.
Swift steamers have been busy-more busy than
public news has told. Rifles and cartridges IN
great quantities have been secretly conveyed to
the island. and distributed where they will do
the most good Not a few men have also landed
who will be able to give formidable account
of themselves. The three patriot armies are IN
prime condition, well equipped we'll disciplined
in the best of health. and flied with enthusiasm
and confidence. True, they number not more
than one-eighth or one-tenth as many as the
Spanish army But that is the ratio that pre-
vailed a year ago or less, when SPANS great
est general was baffled and driven from the
island If one Cuban was equal TO ten Spanish
veterans under Campos. shall he not he equai
TO ten Spanish schoolboys under Weyer!
II looks very much as though the end were
close at hand A few months more, or perhaps
only few weeks and Havana may fall. and the
last Spanish flag In Cuba be Fastening nome

the Hudson or TO the far north. Some time ali
New-York will have TO do the same, and it might

initial steps now in conjunction with Brooklyn
The example Of the great British cities on this
point Is an instructive one Glasgow has tapped
Lake Katrne, and without mpairins in the least
the loneliness Of that historic spot has secured
for all time supply unsurpassed in all the
world. London Is now planning to draw from
the mountain streams Of Wales. Surely me-
tropolis almost rivaling London in size. and in
comparably surprising Glasgow, should not hes-
tate at similar undertakings to secure for Its
people one of the prime necessities OF life.

WHAT NEXT IN CUBAf

There Is an OminOus lull in the Ever Faithful
ISLE Now and then the Spaniards commit some
act Of barbarous cruelty. Now and then, too,
the Cubans play tag across one Of Weylers
death lines" and put the whole Spanish army
in n panic But of serious operations in the
field there are none-not even such as might be
looked for In these closing days Of the rainy
season. Just what the quiet means Is not yet
apparent. but one needs rot 10 Overwork the
faculty of imagination to reckon 1t the proverbial
calm before the storm.
There are more reasons than one for thinking
this. 1t IS perfectly evident that the last word
has not been spoken or ratLer the last blow has
not been struck, in the Cuban fight for freedom.
Spain, in her fatuous pride is not yet willing TO
relax her hold upon the much-squeezed orange.
The patriots were never further from abandon
ing their high designs. Moreover each side Is
well known to be making extraordinary prepa-
rations for the coming campaign. Spain is send

BROOKLYN'S WATER SUPPLY.

The water question in Brooklyn is serious
one. The fluid now distributed through the
mains may be heathful and safe to use. The
Health Commissioner says it IS. 1t certainly Is
offensive to the senses. No man likes to drink
or even to battle In water which looks bad, smells
bad and tastes bad. NO. is the official descrp
ton Of the sources from which 1t Is drawn at all
reassurng. Stagnant ponds. vile and sinking,
filed with dirt and dccaying and fermening
vegetation, covered with Shiny, accomplishing
masses, swarming with bugs. Insects and fish,
full of white snaky threads sluggish streams re-
cciving gashOuse refuse and yard drainage and
covered with green scum-such are the deectablc
details. which are well calculated 10 make the
gorge OF the wafer user rise. No wonder the
affairs is dangerous. The wonder Is that it has
not long since proved disastrous. The inevitable
end unless radical remedial measures are taken,
Is clearly indicated in the analytical chemist
figures which show a steady and rapid increase
Of solid matter in the water and In the bacterl-
ologst's. which show a similar increase in the
number Of bacteria.
Various causes will be named for this dcplor-
able state of affairs. More than one of them
will he In some measure true No doubt greater
care might and should have been exercised In
keeping the ponds and streams clean. But the
chief secret Of the trouble is this that the city
