A STRAW MAN.

The New York World alleges
that George B. Cortelyou, chair
man of the Republican National
committee was soliciting cam
paign funds for the great trusts
and mergers under promise that
they should escape the pains
and penalties Of prosecution
under the antitrust law.
No thoughtful person can fail
to see that this is only mere
partisan 'lnud-slinging." Not
for one minute would President
Roosevelt permit any thing Of
the sort, and no one knows this
better than Mr.. Cortelyou. Such
a promise would be worthless
without the assent Of the Presi-
dent.
The is little doubt that the
mass of men having capital in
vested in legitimate business,
desire the success Of the Re-
publican party and are con-
tributing literally to that party's
campaign fund; neither is there
any doubt that those asstrusts
which fear the courage and
earnest purpose Of the President
for themselves, are contributing
to the cause of the opposition
and working for the election OF
Judge Parker, They know where
their interests are safest.
It is curious, however, to see
how every little obscure Demo
cratic sheet fairly rushes to the
assault on the Worlds man Of
straw. The unanimity ano
heroic zeal they display, gives
occasion to think, after all, it is
but the device of the pursued
and fleeing pick-pocket who cries

oped in that party by long prac-
tice.

The city council, Monday
night freely discussed the sub
iect of the city's water supply.
All the members understand the
absolute necessity of an abun-
dant supply of pure water, and
that action toward securing 1t
must be no longer delayed. They
are willing to aid in every posi-
BILE manner any properly-made
effort to give the city pure water,
and admit they must do so, for
the people demand better water
and more of it. 1t is not un-
reasonable to hope that the coun-
Gil, aided by the Citizens League,
will find practical solution for
this grave questi, n.

of the city appear to be carefully
guarded by the conditions OF the

All is activity just at present,

from the desire to push work to
