AN INSUF-
FICIENT
WATER
SUPPLY.

anu Vi luuiNIUudl NDE-
gressrncn not members of
those committees from tfe beginning OF
session even unto the last hour OF the
same. One would think that these cont;nr.-
GUS representations made by citizens, Off
Gals OF the District government and Off
GERS of the engineer corps of the army
should have had weight enough with lcgis-
lators who had made no special study OF
the subject to spur them TO action; but all
that has been done year after year has been
in the nature OF makeshifts. No account
has been taken of tie constant and rapi,
growth of the city, and it is not surprising.
therefore, to find that today we are no
better off, IL no worse. than we were six
years ago.
Capt. Burr, OF the Engineer Commission
er's office, who has special charge of water
distribution, states. in his annual report.
that the supply for private consumers has
at times been very inadequate. He says
that since tie censi ruction of the forty.
eight-inch main, in L $50, the growth OF the
city has been such that already there is
n marked d;niuution of the pressure in all
localities, and in some the condition OF
things is very little better than it was six
years ago. Capt. Burr recommends the
speedy completion of the Lydecker tunnel,
an undertaking which. in his estimation,
will require two years. and he urges that the
resumption of work on this notorious ''Eolc
in the ground be authorized without dclay
OF course it is to lie assumed that Capt
Burr does not intend to be understood
as conveying tile idea that the completion
OF the LyCccker tunnel Will suffice for al.
the needs of the District in the matter of
water supply. either immediate or remote,
but merely that il VIII help to cure Il great
which should b. met as promstly
as possible.
There should be an end of this pi!dlns
policy of providing for the legitimate wants
of a great city like Washington. 1t is
neither dignified nor economical in the end.
On the contrary, it smacks of tic back
woods, and-is decidedly vasteful. Besides
it is unjust to the people of Tie District.
They pay taxes enough to demand tia,
every department OF the.r local government
shall be complete. and there is "A sufficient
surplus in the United States Treasury to
the credit OF the District to meet all reason
able demands, if Congress would but allow
Il to be used. 1t is to be hoped that Wash
ngton's city council will. at its next meet
ing, not again turn Geaf ear to the Just
of its local constituency, and do
what is right and proper in the premises.
IT IS exceedingly unpleasant to deprive
any class Gf people OF their Lobby, even

NO
CARNIVAL
OF
CRIME.

growing worse, mankind
more depraved and crime of every kind
spreading. Itisnot SO: on the contrary Y quite
the reverse. The world is getting better all
the time, m an more moral and crime de
creasing. At the National Prison Congress
last week this subject was under discus
sion, and it was the opinion Of majority
of the speakers that there has been no car
nival of crime n this coi.>.try, nor is there
likely to be. They expires scd the belief that
crime is steadily giving way before the
ever-growing moral strength of the people.
Our pessimistic friends make great
mistake when the V conclude from the more
complete records of rimc that crime Itself
is increasing. They fail to take account OF
the more perfect methods for the detection
OF crime or of the minute accuracy with
which the press Of the country records
every violation of the law. AT the same
time no one will deny that the administra-
ton of the law in ttis country leaves n
great deal to be desired. While in theory
all men are equal before the law. in reality
such is not the case. The rich and the in
fluentiaI are mere favored than the poor
and the friendless, and in this direction
reform is eminently desirable and ncces-
sary. From this fact however, the de-
duction must not he drawn that crime it
self is increasing. 1t is a good old wcrld
and getting better all the while.
