SiO0k THE WAIER KETER DEAL.

As The Eagle expected and more
than once predicted, the waterwOrks
deal has again bobbed up serenely.
The injustice which such a scheme
would work to the public, and partic-
Nlarly 10 the property owners Of Chi
cago, has been dwelt upon and fully
discussed Ia the columns of The Eagle
in the past. The people are acquaint.
cd with the facts, and they should
use every legitimate means to defeat
the proposition.
In Tuesdays daily papers the pub
lie was calmly informed that compul.
sorry installation of water meters by
all property owners at their own ey-
pense has been recommended by q
subcommittee OF the Council Commit
tee on Water Department. The rec
Gmmendation came In the form of an
amendment to the present water Ordl-
nance.
The main features are that meters
must be placed in apartment buildings
and residences having fifty feet of
frontage. and In all restaurants. hotels,
boarding houses and saloons. Hitherto
only the big factories and other bust,
ness concerns have had water meters,
The cost Of these meters will range
from SO to $40. and the total ex'
pense to the people is estimated at &c.
10000.
This announcement should arouse
every property owner and taxpayer In

the difficulty the fire department ex-
perlences in reaching certain portions
Of the city. As a matter of fact there

The City Council of Phenix, Ariz., was somewhat nasty in its action in changing the name of Roosevelt street to Cleveland avenue on the strength of mere rumor to the effect that the president is in favor of joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico. Some pains should have been taken to ascer- tain whether the rumOr was true or false before action so dreadfully pre- cipitate was taken. If it should ap- pear upon further investigation that even Grover is not wholly sound on the statehood question, the city ceun- cilmen of Phenix would be left in a rather awkward position, and they might be compelled to fall back on Dr. Mary Walker, or allow the street to go without a name.-Los Angeles Times

"'What is a iMissouri Democrat?" is the suggestive caption of an article in the Globe Democrat. Looking at him from this distance, a Missouri democrat is an individual who be- lieves in boodling and public graft ing, and who is willing to "stand in'' with all boodlers and grafters gener- ally. To illustrate the answer, refer ence is specially made to the members of the supreme eourt of that state, who embody the highest ideal of Mis- souri democracy.
