 Water !?

We assune that you are using something besides the ordinary city or town water supply. as it is now generally recognized that water as it comes direct from the mains is too Impure for drinking. Are you using spring water? If so, would you not be- glad to reduce your water bill to a small fraction of what it now is. and save tha annoyance of handling bottles or ccrboyss obtaining at the same time equally good un fact frequently better) water?
 If you are using some system of hltrass tion, are you satisfied with its results7

A Significant Cart )oI.


The cartoon appearing in The New
York Herald, Of Saturday last, labeled
"Are there not some things worse than
the bad dolar?" suggests a significant
trend of thought
The New York Herald has always
been extremely conservative on the side
of the moneyed interests, and has taxi
en- but very little stock in the popular
agrarian movements occurring within
the United States. During the rise and
continuance of the silver discussion, Inc
Herald has done its part in standing by
those who upheld the gold interest. In
doing so, however, The Herald is not
to be accused of any wrong meaning
but simply of a mistake in policy ana
Of having chosen bad bed fellows IL
has always been we'll known that the
origin of the gold movement came from
the shoddy bond holders of 1868, VINO,
having fleeced their government in the
name Of patriotism, still used that con
turing word to fleece the people at large
out OF their hard earnings and to double
the value of bonds which they had pur-
chased at heavy discount They We're
willing to trade upon the necessities OF
the government in time OF war, ana
equally ready to prostitute the name OF
patriotism N time of peace From
their efforts to double the value OF
bonds. they were lead on to that other
effort to displacc all the remaining forms
OF money by the sole use Of the gold
standard, In this way, the shylock in
terests of Europe and the shoddy inter
ests of the United States became com
bined. and it is this double conspiracy
against the welfare of the nation which
has throttIod its legislation ever since.
What was more natural, therefore,
than when another war began, these
people should be in the midst of the
place where contracts were to be let,
and where money was to be coined out
of the blood and suffering Of the men
at the front?
The Herald, therefore, in acknO|i-
cdging that there are some things
worse than Organism" simply lifts the
cover of the condition Of things which
have existed ever since the late civil
war between the states The men who
make money out Of the suffering Of our
soldiers at the front are the same peo-
pie who have made money out OF the
suffering Of the people during the last
thirty years; and it is out Of their OPP
,,rC.sions that the necessity for "BrVan-

senator Foraker and the Cubans.


Those newspapers ana people VINO
are leading in the movement that has
as its purpose the building up OF puEiic
opinion against the Cubaas, have resort
Cd 70 many devices in heir cn1e2ForS
to carry thei1 point, even gong 50 tar as
to openly misrepIesent the attitude OF
public men On what has become most
important QUestiCn.
1t is important particularly because it
will deVOiVe upOn congress to provide
temporary government for Cuba and
to say how long that government shall
be permanent; whether The CuOans who
have struggled so CALAMITY for their
freedom are to have il, or are to he de
priYed Of that freedom through the ma
chinations Of those who would have this
government step in and take Cuba unto
itself
That the ultimate fate of Cuba should
be annexation to this country all true
friends Of the isle and of the inhabi-
tants thereof will agree, But that
this country having gone to war with
Spain to free Cuba from the yoke that
has for 50 many years CALLED her so
notwithstanding entered upon this war
through the highest feelings OF human
ity-shCuld turn around and gobbe up
the island, putting Itself in the attitude
OF simply fighting Spain in order to be
able to step into ner shoes, must be alb
hOrrcnt to every man in whose heart
there is justice and love for liberty.
When. therefore. they see what can
scarcely be called anything else than a
conspiracy whose object is to belittle
the Cubans in the eyes Of the world for
the evident purpose of giving color to
the scheme to gObblo up the island
it is natural for those who love right
and Justice to rebel 1t is not only
natural that their sense Of justice should
be shocked. but it is natural that they
should with ali their might, resent such
a movement to put q stigma upon the
good reputation of this nation
In their effort to give strength to their
contention that the Cubans have been
proven unfit for self-gOvernment, these
anti-Cubans have endoavored to create
the impression that most. if not all Of
those who favored recognition of the
Cuban ropubli" in congress, have been
converted to contrary way of thinking.
It is true that there may be few men
HN>'''N'
hand have allowed themselves to be
fooled by the showing made by these
c0nspirators in the press and out of it;
but no man whose advocacy of recognt-
ton was the result Of a study of the
subject has changed. This clamor
against the Cubans ought to fool no.
body. and has fooled very few.
It was announced with blare Of
trumDets q few days ago that Senator
Foraker of Ohio. had declared that he
was wrong in advocating recognition,
and that he, too, had been converted to
the anti-Cuban way of thinking. This
would have been important, if true, for
the senator from Ohio had made close
study Of the conditions in Cuba and had
been in consequence. one Of the strong
est supporters of recognition upon the

candidate for governor presents in MS
character and career the very essence or
the democracy that the people love.
Consequently, to save themselves from
utter political humiliation, they have
played the dangerous card of negro Goa
lition. Like all cards held up the sleeve,
it represents a swindling scheme. The
victims of it will be the white farmers
in the remote settlements, as the result
OF a like coalition in North Carolina has
shown. In the black counties, should
the coalition be successful, the negroes
will have the whip hand, and, as in
North Carolina, they will take charge OF
the county offices and proceed with the
work of corruption.
But, from all indications, the populist
voters do not propose to be led into
any such trap; they do not propose
to sacrifice themselves in behalf of the
