York City, after careful and unprecedented re-
view of all that can be said in his favor, de-
clares him unfit he cannot ascend the bench
with that popular confidence which alone can
make his presence there creditable to the Presi-
dent. When in spite of all the pressure of the
Western New-York organization TO rally the
Rochester bar in Mr. Hazels interests, the asso-
citation there fails only by the narrow vote or
30 to "a of protesting against the nomination, 1t
must be evident that large part OF the bar or
his own section would be outraged by his ele-
vation When his supporters are driven to
make false statements and disingenuous denials
concerning his work as ship broker, his moral
unfitness for the bench needs no argument A
man of that clear character suiting Judge
does not have one day to masquerade as snip
broker, the next to try covering up entirely his
part in the transaction. and the next to appear
as lawyer who merely performed legal ser
vices In unloading on the Government yacht
at twice its value, taking care not to put his
foot in Il" by letting truth stand in the way of
needed representations.
The elevation of such q man under such cloud
would be a grave discredit to the Adnlinistra-
ton The people who punished Maynard for
playing Il sharp trick on the voters of Duchess
County would not be tolerant of a judge who
played a sharp trick on the treasury Of his
country The President who with knowledge
persists in rewardng such n man need not
wonder If the incident brings to public attention
what has long been an undercurrent of rumor
about tie wholesale way In which the Govern
ment was defrauded in ship purchases by specu-
lators with political pull Doubtless the Presi-
dent did not know what he now knows when he
consented to send Mr.. Hazels name TO the Sen
ate. He can recall II with credit to himself and
benefit TO the country and nominate some man
Of undisputed fitness. Unless he does this,
whatever OF public indignation follows this deg
radiation Of the bench will rest not upon Mr..
Platt-who, secure in possession of his machine,
laughs at elections and public opinion-but upon
the President himself A failure of confrma-
ton in The Senate would save this State from
an unfit judge, but it would not save the Ad-
ministraton from reproach, would frank and
manly acknowledgment of the mistake and
patriotic steps to rectify it.

FEDERATION AND THE UNION.

Australian federation, we may assume. is
now assured. The one point of difference be-
tween the colonies and the Imperial Govern
ment has been amicaby adjusted. That point,
relating to the supreme Court Of Appeal, was
raised by Mr.. Chamberlain, and there were
those who thought he had provoked an mop
perfume and needless conflict. But the astute
Colonial Secretary has shown himself as tactfnl
as he is aggressive. He has effected a compro-
mise which is not only satisfactory to both
sides but is actually regarded by each as more
advantageous to 1t than was it's own original
proposition. By both sides we mean, Of
course, the Government at London and the Aus
tralian delegates. There is no question that the
Government bill will be adopted by Parliament
by an Overwhelming ajority. There Is scarcely
less certainty that 1t will prove acceptable to
the people of Australia. Even if few voters
alenated by the slight changes made in
the Constitution by the compromise-and it is
scarcely conceivable that any will be-they cam
not be numerous enough to endanger the meas
ure in single colony. The vote for federation
last year was nearly three to one. In Victoria
it was sixteen to one. and in Tasmania about
nineteen to one. There is no danger Of It's
being reversed. Therefore, as we have said,
Australian federation is practically assured.
The Commonwealth Of Australia is about to
take its place among the nations of the world
The most instructive and suggestive tenure
OF the case to the American observer is not the
simple fact Of federation nor the interesting
fact upon which we have heretofore remarked
that Australian federation Is being effected
largely upon American lines. Nc, but 1t is this,
that with all their strong-we might almost say
indissoluble-ties TO the parent State Australia
and Canada remain separate States with no lot
or part in the government of the United King
dom. They belong politically TO Great Britain
They rally ungrudgingly and enthusiastically to
her support In war, and likewise In peace as
Canada's diferental tariff testifies. Racially
they are her own flesh and blood, every whit as
British as she. Yet they do not help to govern
her. They are content to remain outlying col
onies. governing themselves subject to her I'M
perial suzerainty, but never for Il moment
dreaming Of taking part in her insular govern
ment. And she cherishes them and protects them.
often at great expense to herself and erects
them TO the high estate of national sovereignty.
but never for a moment thinks OF admitting
them TO a voice in the councils Of her United
Kingdom.
The lesson is obvious, or should be obvious, to
US, and to those who heedlessly talk Of our in
sulnr possessions being necessarily a part Of the
Union and potentially invested with the rights
and powers Of Statehood. The political example
of Great Britain Is not necessarily TO be fol-
lowed by US. Our ways need not be as her

STOP THE LEAKS

The city officials connected with the water
supply from time to time keep issuing reports
and bulletins to prove that we shall have
water famine within few years in spite of all
their efforts They bring tons of proof to show
that with the present rate of increase in outflow
from our reservoirs the supply, present and
prospective will soon be exhausted, and the
intended lesson from their teaching is that we
must Mt once set the Ramapo company at work
on its own terms TO build a reservoir and have
water on hand for us by the time the city supply
gives out.
There is no doubt that if all the hydrants and
faucets N New York were opened and the water
was left to all day every DAY the water
supply would speedily be exhausted, and we
should have to find substitute for the Croton
and Ridgewood systems. Arguments about
consumption based on such q state of facts
however, would not be seriously considered
The engineer would be told to shut the faucets
and hydrants and tell us what water we needed
TO use. not what by extraordinary efforts we
could throw away. Arguments based on the
present apparent consumption worth not a
whit more. Experiment has shown that at the
hour when there is practically no consumption
the flow from the reservoir is only a trifie less
than at the hours of greatest use. 1t happens
that the difference is just about equal to the
actual present consumption of Liverpool which
uses all the water it wants. but has stopped
leaks in its pipes. 1t Is evident that several
times more water runs out of the pipes into the
ground after having been brought here at great
expense. than goes into the houses, hotels,
factories and all other places of use What
folly 1t is to talk of spending millions for new
water supply when we are turning our present
supply into a sieve!
The thing to do Is to stop the leaks. That
ray ha for
new supply. 1t has been done in European
cities when pipes wore out, and was not found
difficult undertaking, but rather simple work
for ordinarily good and faithful engineers who
were trying to do their duty instead of making a
Job" If even the biggest leaks were repaired
we should have an abundant supply for many
years to come.
