Our Water Supply.


Last week we stated the plan water
Superintendent Brown considers the wisest
and surest for making the City water supply
just what it should be-whoIesome at all
times.
One of our readers writes us that he con-
siders it backward, rather that step in
line with up-to-date methods. The scheme
of pumping up dirty water into reservoirs,
there to be filtered, he says, is preposterous,
when pure water, free from contamination,
and run through a natural filter, may he
procured at a fraction of the cost of the me-
thod proposed by the City Superintendent.
Artisan water, he AYERS, may be found
is ample quantity to make up the present
deficiency in our present supply, or for a
full supply. Wells may be sunk in Wood
bury or ght at the present pumping plant,
and the water forced into the mains, by di-
rect pressure, or into basin, if desired. The
cost of two such wells he says, would not
exceed 81 500, and full supply could be
procured at cost of about $4,000
We are informed that the artisan plant,
at Westville, is great success, aud readers
will be surprised to know that the two six
inch wells yield 400 gallons of water
minute, and that 1900 gallons are placed
in tank, 100 feet high, at total expense
of one cent These wells are 112 and 113
feet deep, into which q six inch pipe is
sunk the suction is four inches. The
water is never tainted, always pure and
wholesome.

Victory For the State.

Hon. w. o. Temple received this
telegram last evening from the secre
tary of the state board of railroad
commissioners
"Judge Garland decides the case in
our favor"
This is the famous Maximum rail-
road rate case," that Las been so stub
bornly fought in the courts for over a
year.
The state railroad commissioners fixed
the passenger rates at &c per mile and
made horizontal cut Of 20 per cent
on freight rates. This the railroads
objected to and pooling their issues, by
agreement test case was made with
the Milwaukee as plaintiff A tempo.
rary injunction was asked for and
granted, restraining the commissioners
from enforcing the new rates. The
history of the case is familiar to every
reader of the state papers. The testi-
mony in the case comprises thousand
printed pages, and the case was finally
heard on it's merits before Judge Car
land at Sioux Falls on June 27 to Goth
Hon. w. o. Temple, of this city, and
I. II. Noll, of Huron conducted the
case for the commissioners and opposed
to them were the local and general
attorneys of all roads doing business
in the state. IL is worthy of note that
this is the first decision of the kind
ever rendered in any court in favor OF
the people and against the railroads,
although it has been before the courts
of nearly every state in the Union
Other states have had better cases, but
have lost them. The railroads will no
doubt carry the case to the U. S. court
of appeals -Pioneer-Times.

William r. Hearst, of the New York

error Of his ways. He went to Cuba

thoroughly converted. le doesn't be.
lieve any more that Cuba could be
cleaned up in week, he speaks of the
landing Of Gen. Skaters army OF $l6,-
900 men without loss as almost mira
Gle. and says: "The spirit of the army
is high. The officers have the full con-
troll of the men. There is 70 apparent
clash of authority, and it is now obvious
not only to military critics, but to lay
men, that Mckinley wisely chose not
to send these thousands of men into
this scorching, blistering jungle until it
was an effective army well balanced and
adjusted, and fit to fght desperate
enemy under a tropic sun. The army
got here neither too soon nor too late.
The stroke was timed with sure iudg-
ment. Now that am here on the spot
can actually see the difficulties and
peculiarities of this campaign. l am
satisfied that Mckinley was right in de-
Gliding to attack Santiago rather than
Havana. With. good water and high

Of the 30th ult., the appropriation for
the Hot Springs National hospital, with
a number of other amendments in the
civil sundry bill were disagreed to by a
vote of III ayes to no nays, voting to
stand by the conferees. While it may
not have availed much to demand a
diyision of the question on the disagree
ing vote, it would have brought to the
attention of the house question which
has been uppermost in the minds OF
South Dakotans for years, namely, the
establishment of branch hospital for
disabled soldiers at Hot Springs. Rep

The whole trouble over the Indian bill
rests in an amendment insisted upon
by Senator Pettigrew and others in re-
lation to free homes.

mean he can cure himself right away

cine tones up the whole system, acts as
stimulant to the liver and kidneys, is a
blood purifier and nerve tonic. 1t cures
constipation, headache, fainting spells,

restores the system to its natural yigor.

Railroad to Hay Creek Coal Fields.

Messrs. Fred S. Harris an w. S.
Heckart, of Deadwood, have the con-
tract to build Is miles of railroad from
Belle Fourche to the coal fields. The
contract calls for grading the road bed
building the bridges, laying the steel,
and putting up the telegraph line. The
company selected the right men for the
right place in this case, for no other
men of larger experience could have
been found in the state. Mr.. Harris in
1890 was in charge of laying the iron
from Edgemont to Deadwood for the
Burlington Company, very difficult
task, requiring strong executive abil-
ity. Mr.. Heclart at the same time had
a grading contract on the same branch,
through one of the most mountainous
sections Of the road, which he finished
promptly and with satisfaction to the
company.-Mining Review.

New Rule ais to Passes.

The following circular letter has just
been prepared by the state auditor, says
a Pierre special of the End inst, and
will be sent to all parties drawing funds
from the state for services rendered, for
their guidance in rendering their
accounts. 1t will be a decided depart
ure from past precedents in this state,
and while it is undoubtedly for the good
of the public service it will not in all
probability be exactly satisfactory to all
parties concerned:
OiHce of State Auditor, Pierre, S. d.,
June 80. 1S98.-Dear Sir. On January
6, 1897 this Office adopted rule requir-
ing receipts for money expended but
until now an exception has been made
In the case of railroad fare. on the
ground that transportation furnished to
individuals might be considered as in
dividual property. With this exception
the rule has been strictly adhered to and
has greatly improved the service. An
experience of eighteen months has de.
monstrated that the service would be
still further improved by making no
exception whatever to this rule, and
hereafter passes will be treated as court
estes to the state instead of to the in
diyidual. Therefore, beginning with
the new fiscal year, July /. 1898, all
parties desiring to draw public money
for railroad travel will be required to
furnish receipts showing that the money
has actually been expended. Hereto.
fore some of the public institutions have
sometimes drawn on the maintenance
fund to pay salaries. In urgent cases
