TOO MUCH FOR LORTON.

Editor Lorton of the Washtucna
ENTERPRISE is a staunch republican
who usually takes anything his parry
has to offer as divinely appointed, but
he has in his makeup a love for fair
play that sometimes leads him to ell
ter G gentle protest against anything
particularly outrageous IN the CON
duct of his party leaders. The shabby
treatment accorded General Miles on
his retirement by President Roose-
welt and Secretary Of War Root is
nauseating to Lorton and he thus
breaks over the rules Of party discip-
line:
The summary dismissal Of General
Miles without a word of cOmmenda-
ton or a single tribute Of praise for
his long service to his country has
given the democratic press a variety
Of spasms. 1t was sufficient cause
and the only wonder is that the eX-
pressions of disapproval have not
been more drastic. The democratic
press is never at a loss for something
to kick about. but the prOyOcatiOn for
q kick in this instance is sufficient to
warrant the use Of both hind legs.
General Miles has done a great many
things to eXasperate the different adj
ministratiOns under which he has
served and certainly has never over
looked an opportunity to roar, but he
has in most instances had the ad-
vantage at least Of believing that he
was right and the consciousness that
his rOars were the prOmptings of an
honest desire to see the right thing
done, as often as from an inherent
inclination to kick, has caused the
public to regard him with a greater
degree Of tolerance and allowance
than If conditions had been reversed.
1t matters not how many didOs he
may have been guilty of, his match
less courage, indOmitable will, and
long ana honorable service to his
country. entitled him to more than a
brief dismissal upon his retirement
under the age limitation. Whether it
was an act of hOUghtlessness or an
intentional slight matters but little
and in either case censure and dis
approval is equally merited. But it
does not lie within the power of the
president Of the United States to-
withhold from General Miles the ap-
proving homage Of a grateful people,

GIVING WIVES IN MARRIAGE.

Rather a peculiar story Of domestic
infeIcity flows from Chicago. The
man is the case. or rather one Of Them,
allowed his Wife to get a divorce
since she loved another He acted
the self-sacri1cing hero very prettily
and with much grace. But this 10Th
er" failed to come up to the require
ments. After all the disagreeable
forms CT the divorce We're acted, he
backed out of the proposition; where
upon the husband thrashed him
soundly, first breaking a cane upon
his rascal shoulders.
Many a beautiful story is current
of famous men who either presented
their wives to others or accepted such
presents. At least, the facts are
made to appear beautiful. For in
stance. We are not told that the army
officer who decided his wife over to
Robert Louis Stevenson considered
Il q gOOd radiance. On the contrary,
the gentleman is said to have prom
ised her that if ever she found a man
whom she loved more, she would be
free to take him. Stevenson proved
10 be the man. and the officer, though
sore at heart. permitted himself to be
sacrificed.

The report then goes on to estimate
the cost of constructing a gravity

made on a scientific basis and is well
worthy the study of the council. The

wear and it may find it worth while
to republish it in the near future fer
the information Of the people and
their official agents.

THAT WATER REPORT.

The report OF the Spokane hydraulic
engineer upon a gravity water sup
ply, based upon Offnand observations
made during two or three trips up
Mill creek, will come high al five hun
dred dollars. The council has on file
report made by an expert from Kan
sas City. Missouri. in 1893, which
covers every point that Expert Weile
ton and probably a great deal more,
as the Kansas City man employed by
the Roberts administration went
about his work in a scientific way. It
seems, then that the council is TO pa,
the Spokane man five hundred dollars
for something that it already has in
stock of far superior quality
The public expected when an ex-
pert was employed that he would
conduct an exhaustive investigation
Of the sources Of water supply and
everybody knows that this could not
be taken with q birds eye view OF the
landscape. When Expert Weile's re-
port is read 10 the council next Tues
day night it might be interesting to
compare his recommendations with
those made by Expert kiersted to the
council on June ., 1898. The topog-
raphy Of the country has not chang
ed since Mr. Kiersted's report was
made and his conclusions after o
complete investigation are just as
valuable today as they were ten years
ago.
For example. the Kiers,ed report
said; The valley is broad and is
undeglaid with a graveuy subsoil
from which at various points issue
springs of considerable volume The
source of the stream (}till creeO is
in the Blue mountains about twenty
five miles distant The
watershed is composed Of porous sub
soils that are practically free from
lime and other soluble materials
which give hardness to water. These
conditions characterize the water of
this valley as q pure mountain water,
the purity Of which is naturally above
suspicion. The rainfall upon the up
land slopes percolate5 through r0r-
Gus sUbsoils to the gravel beds under
conditions that are most favorable for
publication by Intermittent filtration
These gravel beds become natural
storage reservoirs from which the
streams and springs repleniah them
selves during dry seasons. Such
natural reservoirs have long been re
garded with popular favor as a desir
able source for public water sup
plies. chiefly because they furnish 6
water that is clear, cool and refresh
Ing, and because when the water Is
soft and unpolluted it is most salts

poses.
The usual and most effectiv,
method Of developing n water supply
from such a source is to sink a Ions

the adjoining main drainage streams

FULL OF SYMPATHY.
President and People Indignant Over
the Outrages at kischi,cff.

Washington, June 15.-Thc executive
committee of the order OF the H'Rith,
today, waited on the President and
Secretary Hay and made representa-
tions to them regarding the massacre
of the Jews at Kischineff ana the treat
ment of Jews in Russia generally AZ
ter the interview with the President.
Mr.. Simon Wolff. n member of the COM
mittee said:
1--WE have had an important and very
satisfactory interview with the Pre1i-
dent. While committing himself to no
line of action he has promised to take
our representations under cOnsidera-
ton.
A statement was given out at the
White House, tonight, concerning the
conference on the Kischineff affair The
statement consisted of n memorandum
submitted by the B'Nai FIRTH on the
massacre in April, a tentative draft OF
n petition to the Car and the procur-
ing n reply thereto and copies or the
replies of Secretary Hay and President
Roosevelt to his callers. The memo
randum says the facts concerning the
Einchineff massacre as officially re-
ported by the Russian government have
appalled, and Mortified not only the jews
i'm Russia and elsewhere. but the whole
American people, who want something
done. and whose hostility to Russia. if
nothing is done. will become intensified
and fixed. The Jews, 1t says, likewise
likewise are fearful of the future. They
are constant propagandiSts against
Russia and the memorandum says the
result Is to undermine the traditional
amity between Russia and the United
States.
II IS declared to be desirable to end
this state of things without breach of
Diplomatic etiquette or embarrassment
TO our government and one or both of
the subioincd methods therefore were
submitted for consideration:
IA petition To the Car to which
the BNai FIRTH will get the sigma
lures of the leading mon in the various
states. Our government to assist UNI
officially or semi unoflicially in secur-
inE the delivery of this petition to the
Car and in procuring a favorable re-
ply thereto. either by direct COM
munication or some other form of pub
lie expression.

recent incidents of more or less similal
nature as grounds. an official invita-
ton by the United States addressed
to all powers. to an international con
ference to consider prosecutions ant

orandum called attention to the crue

During Day at White House.
Expressed Indignation at the Recent
Outrases at kischineff.

Baltimore, June ia vast assem-
blage was present in Armory hall, to-
night, to listen to the grand concert of
the Northeastern Saengerbund. Every
one Of the 900 seats in the auditorium
was occupied, 5000 singers were on the
stage and standing room was at pre-

magnificently decorated box and his
appearance was the signal for I'M
bounded enthusiasm and prolonged APP
plause.
After the delivery of a brief address
President Roosevelt spent nearly an
hour listening to the choruses ana
solos.
Beside the President there were n
number of other distinguished guests
present, including President John Wal
ter Smith and staff, Admiral II. c.
Taylor. the Prussian minister of
finance Baron Won Won Rheinbaben
and suite of four, Baron Won Stern
berg. the German ambassador; Mayor
Robert McLain and naval officers from
the cruiser Prairie and gunboat Topeka,

escorted by President Wieman and Con
gresham Wachter to n retiring room:
where he waited the completion of one OF

Presidents box the immense audience
cheered to the echo.
The same method was observed on the
return trip to the Union station. When
asked why such apparently extraordinary
precautions had been taken to guard
president Roosevelt. Marsh"l Farnan
said: There are thousands OF persons IN
the city and it was thought pnsSbl" thHt
some Anarchist or other crank might be
among them. We did not want anything
unpleasant to occur and simply took pre-
cautionary measures.
