THE WATER FAMINE.
t Was Terminated Shortly After
Noon Yesterday.

From 6:20 a. M Sunday till 2:3O p. m.
yesterday there was no water pumped
into the mains by the city pumps. This
was just thirty-tWo hours and eleven
minutes.
The promise had been made that the
shut down should at the outside not eX-
ceed twelve hours, but the time limit
was so exceeded that in many places
the matter became serious.
There were q number of restaurants
that had to close on account of their
inability to cook food, and the leading
hotels that had provided water for
twenty -four hours felt the famine very
severely.
The work of making the connection
was completed soon after noon, but City
Taper Watt determined to take no
chances. and examined every joint very
carefully before any water was allowed
to be turned on.
Before any pumping was done the
tank on the Water Works. which holds
100000 gallons, was allowed to diss
charge it's contents into the mains, ana
at 2:30 p. m. Engineer Wood started up
the old reliable Stevens pump that had
had it's longest rest since it was built.
1t was nearly two minutes before the
pumps caught water, as the mains were
full of air, but as soon as they had eX-
hausted the air the gauge began to rise
and pressure of II pounds was regis
tered in three minutes. After that every
BODY had slickenS galore.

The Legislature has now reached a
point when it must give especial atten
tion to legislation to permit towns, cit
les and counties to avail of the late
amendment to the Constitution by
which machines for voting may be
used.
Bills sare already in upon the subject,
but to- at least two of them there is
decided and just objection, in that they
name in one case directly, and in an
other by description, certain machines.

eible of fulhIment by but one machine,

The Record Union" has seen several
machines and examined them rather
closely. 1t is prejudiced neither for

Sites. The machine should not be COM
plicated nor be too large. 1t should
be incapable Of dishonest manipulation
without disclosure and alarm, and it
should be reasonable in cost. 1t ought
to do away with any handling of a
ballot by the voter, If possible, though
that would not be an insuperable OBJ
lection in the face Of counterbalancing
virtues.

Rabbi Simon, President of the So

Grating the many instances in which

cluded by asking the Supervisors TO al

a portion OF the salary of the society S
officer or agent.
Mr.. Simon addressed the board In
support of the application, specifying
the cases in which the society has res
cued children from cruel parents and
bad influences. He cited the fact that
the society has no income aside from
small voluntary donations from kind
hearted people

THE RIVER BILL.

1t Is rather singular that the Stockton
Independent should antagonize the
proposition to try the new dredger plan
of deepening the channels Of the navig-
able rivers. 1t is not new thing, but
comes with the Endorsement Of the Fed
eral Government, which has tried the
plan with success upon streams of the
Mississippi Valley.
The independent fears that there
ere bugs in the BILL" providing for the
fdredger; but it has not pointed them out
with such clearness as TO convince
friends of the measure. They assuredly
want no bugs in the scheme. If the
bill is so defective it can be remedied
so as to exclude the bugs; if it is weak
in the matter of safeguards against cor
ruption and waste, it will be easy to
provide them and hedge it about In a

rrento River. If so, it is true that the
greater need exists on the Sacramento

river most degraded by deposits. and the
delta of which most imperatively needs

HIS NAME WAS ENOUGH.

All His Clothing.

George Cornelius Vanderbilt Tennes-
see Goforth went forth to the Governor
of California some months ago and COM
planned that some one had misused him.
The Governor took pity on him at that
time and helped him along. Yesterday
he showed up around the police station,
and as the water was shut off he tore
his clothes into shreds with which to
make a passable crossing to the station
and appeared before the surprised Ser
geant in a state Of absolute nudity.
AS soon as the Chief learned Of his
condition he hunted him up a misfit of
clothes, into which the man with the
many names was allowed to get and
then he was permitted to "Goforth."

The San Jose Herald hits the nail
souarely and vigorously on the head,
when. in considering the opposition to
the rock crushing plant at Folsom. it
says:
All the talk on this matter in the So
called interest of free labor arises either
from demagogy or from the mistaken
idea that there is only just so much
work TO be done in this world, and that
whatever a convict does is just so much
taken away from free labor Common
sense indicates that the more work
there is done the more must be done to
keep the workers going. It makes no
particular difference that portion OF
the work is done by convicts. The
product all goes into the common stock
that is at once the basis and the re-
ward of industry and business. Pre-
sumably the only reason for the special
objection to the use Of convict crushed
rock on city streets is that the labor ele-
ment is more organized in cities and
makes itself heard more regarding what
II considers a blow at its welfare. OF
course there is no good reason why Fol-
som rock should not be used in cities as
we'll as in the country. The same ar
rangement that shows the expediency
of It's use in the one case is equally ap-
plicable in the other.

Precisely the difficulties have devel-
oped in the consideration of the ar
bitration treaty, which formed the ba-
sis Of the Record Unions" objections
to a general court of arbitration from
the very day the idea was born of that
Chicago convention of sentimentalists.
We still hold, and have heard no ar
gument that weakens our position, that
the ratification of the treaty will have
the effect of reducing US TO still lower
levels in the diplomatic world. We are
lust beginning to develop some diplo-
matte independence and skiH-the
treaty proposes to put both to death for
at least five years, when it will be
found difficult to resurTect them. What
we need far more than treaty of ar
bitration is a diplomatic school, and
such broad, generous and complete
preparation for commanding respect
abroad as will insure it. Let arbitra-
ton come in cases as needed, each in
cident standing upon its own bottom.
We do not oppose arbitration sweep
inglv. but do doubt seriously the wis
dom of binding ourselves in advance TO
a, process that will compel US to SUD-
NIT to arbitration, even when circum-
stances arise which would suggest other
and better means to secure peace and
