Would Inaugurate
a Change.

A water consumer, writing to the
Times, makes the following complaint
"Almost every taxpayer of the city
water works system has had sufficient
reasons to complain of the oftentimes
dirty, roity Or sandy condition of the
water supply. During the past few
days the water has been in some dis
tricts SO sandy and dirty that it is not
fit for drinking purposes and is actual
ly dangerous to the health of the men,
bers of the family. do not claim to
know anything definitely about the
reasons for this, but have been told re-
peatedly that the principal cause for
this condition is the additional connec-
tion, changes and extensions OF the
system, which are made from time to
time. There may be other causes.
which, if there are any, | should like
to see publicly explained by some per-
son acquainted with the facts. The
principal sufferers are, no doubt, the
consumers who have a meter connect
ec and who are willing to pay for ev-
cry drop OF water actually used.
Whenever the water is in bad condi-
tion the people in the affected district
will allow the water to run continuous
ly in the hope of at; last securing clear
drit k Of water and it is easy to under
stand that the meter consumer has not
only the Inconvenience and danger of
the bad condition of the water TO com
plain about but must also pay for the
unnessariIy wasted water which has
run through the meter Aud this is
injustice added to the other causes for
complaint. Allow me to make the fol-
lowing suggestions, the carrying out
of which | think will remedy the nui-
sance:
Whenever any alterations or
changes are to be made to the system
in any locality or district, the snperin-
tendent of the water works plant knows
of this sufficiently long in advance to
notify the consumers in the district
which he knows will be affected, and
by this notice chance is given to ev-
cry conrumer to draw enough clear
water for drinking purposes to last un-
til the water is again in good condi-
tion. And after these alterations and
changes above referred to are COM
pleted, every hydrant in the affected
district should be opened and the dirty
water allowed to run out until the sup
ply is again clear and pure. In this
way will not only the consumer be sat
isfed and clear water furnished to
them for their money, but at the same
time the public health will be better
served. The opening of every hydrant
should he done from time to time even
if there are no changes or alterations
made, and who ever has witnessed the
opening of any hydrant and has seen
the accumulation of mud and dirt
thrown out when the hydrant is open
ed, will gladly endorse this request in
the interest of public health. The in
tention of this communication is to
bring about an Improvement in the
condition of the water supply furnished
to large number of homes and not to
find fault with any officer or employee
connected with our municipal plant.

The New York Tribune has COM
pleted a forecast from results secured
from scores of the leading newspapers
of the country. The results obtained
show a number of significant indica-
tions, not the least important of which
is the apparent certainty that Parker
will be beaten worse tnan Bryan was.
The census of 1900 added twenty nine
to the electoral total vote, raising it
from 447 to 476. In 1900 Bryan car
ried seventeen states, receiving 155
electoral votes. If Parker shonld carry
the same states this year his vote
would give 195 in the electoral college.
But conceding him the two states
which may be fairly considered doubt
full. Maryland and Nevada, his total
will reach only 1862, even if he carries
fifteen statess
