THE WATER QUESTION.

IL the year 1900 there were 10 wafer
plants in operation in the United States
one OF them in Boston was under public
management and the IS in other places
under private control; and now IA ofthe
IS private works have given away TO pub
lie ownership. In the year 1897 public
water works out numbered private by
about 200 the whole number Of publicly
owned works being s3,2 per cent. OF the
enormous total Of 3Io6 plants. In 1897
of total oil 7o water works in Mary land
public and 20 private. two have
changed from private to public owner
ship. In recent years very few it any,
private works have been constructed on
account oil the recognized value OF public
ownership and the difficulty OF private
parties being able to secure franchise,
the cities and towns recognizing the i'm.
portance OF municipal control.
In the face Of the facts and the exper-
fence OF the past. how deplorable it would
be should citizens OF Annapolis through
lack Of interest in this matter permit the
control OF the works constructed. out OF
taxes levied upon them. and built by the
cooperation OF the City ard the State
pass into the hands oil a few private stock
holders who have been entrusted with
the management Of the affairs Of the
Company There are now two bills
pending before the Legislature that should
receive the united support Of all citizens.
who would look to the welfare of the city
and the taxpayers. BY a provision Ct
the charter Of the Annapolis Water Com
pany the city is forbidden to own more
than sac. 900. OF stock and thus could
never have control OF its water supply.
The bill before the Legislature is simply
to remove this Limitation and put the
city on the same plane as the private ciii-
zen. who could purchase controlling
interest; and the bill further provides that
the question Of municipal ownership shall
be submitted TO a vote of the people at
the next election for Mayor. Counsellor
and Aldermen. The other bill prohibits
the state from selling its interest Of $780,
600 dollars until the voters OF Annapolis
have determined their interest in the mat
ter.
The lesson OF two years ago, where
syndicate was secretly formed among
our own citizens to secure control. should
open the eyes Of the citizens of Annap-
oils to their interests in the matter of
ownership. The same influences are now
in operation before the Legislative Com
mittees,o deieatthe privilege asked for the
people viz: that they may vote on the
Question Of municipal ownership.
The value OF our interest may be seen
from the four Mayors Reports. The
$4,000 of stock owned by the city has
been used to balance accounts and TO
cover up the excess OF expenditures over
receipts to the amount OF $4,000. IL
has been doing double duty. viz as debt
due to the City and as an asset also.
Now the Report Of this year 1900 regards
Il as "debt due to the City only, and
1t has disappeared as An asset altogether.
The improvement committee appointed
by the City Council made use OF it in the
same way in their Report making tap
pear that the d, BITS due TO. exceeded or
balanced the debts due by the City.

Biackfeet Advancing.

A. 3. Clements, who has returned
from visit with Major j. H. Monteath,
the BlaclKfeet Indian agent, tells an in
teresting story of the result of his obser-
yations upon the reservation:
The tribe'is rapidly dying out owing
chiefly, l think, to the close inter-mar-
riage OF tue membtrs OF the tribe" says
Mr.. Clements. During my visit there
| noticed ole peculiar feature which
illustrates the remarkable development
Of the west. The old Indian agency at
Piegan is a ssoclade or fort consisting of
a cluster of log buildings built as pro
lection against hostile Indians. Tae
new agency at Browning is built more
on the order OF city residence. There
are no loopholes for Winchest3rs, and
no pretense at protection from savage
foes. The Indian is 40 longer at war
with the white man or the neighb0ring
tribes. His occupation around Brown
ing is that OF stock raising. While
there is no land IL severalty, il the In,
dian will care for and cut the hay he
will be allotted hay meadow, which he
must fence and irrigate and the govern
ment will purchase his product.
Thomas Dawson, the half breed who
married Isabella, the accomplished
daughter OF Malcolm Clark, has beau
tiful home on the reservation which is
the rendezvous for all the rich sports
men who visit the reservation every year.
Dawson is the son Of a Scotchman who
went TO live ou the reservation years ago
as the agent of the Hudson aBay com
panN After the death Of his squaw
| mother the lad was taken to Scotland
and in'ignorance Of his Indian blood. re
ceived fine college education. Years
after he drifted cut West, learned Of his
birth and then took up his home ON the
reservations He married Isabella Clark
also half breed and sister OF Helen
Clark who is now the agent for the allot
ment of lands in severalty TO the Indians
of the Indian territory. A son of Nal
colin Clark also lives on the reservation
