Better Pay Your Water Rent.

The city ordinance relative to the
payment OF water rent says that II
must be paid quarterly in advance. On
the receipts and permits the city has
granted ten days grace and the city
clerk informed VS. today that that did
not mean twelve days, nor did it mean
that he would have 10 re-notify them
that their water rent was due.
Hence 1t is, says the clerk, that all
parties not paying their water rent by
l2 O'Clock tomorrow, January u, their
names will be given TO the inspector
who will proceed to shut the water of
from such persons and then it will
cost a dollar extra to have II turned
on again. So, II you have not paid
you may know what to expect.

iected at the intake in order to show whether there
is contamination at the immediate source; and one
of the water collected from the distributing conduit
in order to show whether it is relatively pure when
discharged into the mains
The chief object of this plan is to determine the
efficacy Of the clarifcation system which will soon
be put into commission. The two tests will show
the pecularites of water received at the intake be
fore the settling and aeraton take place. and those
of the clarified water. The analysis will demon
srate the degree of publication realized in addition
to claritication. by simple process.
But the tests should not be discontinued once
they are begun. They would have as great i'm
portance in guarding against supplying polluted
water Unless tests are made periodically it is I'M
possible to know whether the water received at the
intake is fit for use. The monthly tests might pre-
vent serious epidemic. say, of typhoid fever.
The board is to be commended also for recon-
mending that the force in the Psychological Div

| THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION
| An impression apparently exists in Washington
regarding the attitude of St Lotus in the matter OF
the Democratic National Convention this year that
may as well be corrected at once. There seems to
be thought that st. Louis is going to join in
competitive bidding for the convention but it GER
| tainly will not do anything of the kind.
Missouris member of the Democratic National
Committee Senator Stone, has been quoted in dis
patches from Washington advising that st. Louis
should spare no time in agreeing upon the money to
be offered, If any. Yet that is something about
which Senator Stone and every member of the
National Committee is already fully informed
through the formal offer made to the Republican
National Committee in behalf of ST Louis. There
is no reason to believe that ST. Louis will be any
more willing to outbid other cities in its money
offers for the Democratic Convention than. it was
when making its proposition for the Republican
Convention.
St Louis will offer its hospitality to the Demo
cratic Committee 1t will assure the committee that
the delegates to the presidential convention will re-
ceive the same wholesouled welcome that st. Louis
has twice given in past years. 1t will guarantee
the comfort of its guests and it will defray all neces
sary and legitimate expenses of the committee as
well of the convention. including the providing of
proper auditorium. But st. Louis will not attempt
tary offer.
1t is to be hoped that the Democratic National
Committee will make it plain that the amount OF
money profered by city will not count feathers
weight in the balance Quite properly, the commit
tee must have satisfactory assurance that enough
money will be guaranteed to meet all legitimate ex-
penses, but there should be attempt to get more
Indeed the committee should emphatically refuse
to receive Let the odium of this kind of tax
upon hospltable city remain with the Republican
National Committee which initiated the custom Of
inviting contributions in excess of the amount re-
quired for actual convention purposes.
At any rate, st. Louis has intention of going
into this sort of auction. 1t kept OUT of such
seemIy competition in its appearance before the Re
publican Convention 1t will certainly not be found
to have changed its position when its representa-
tves appear before the Democratic National Com
mittee
The St. Louis Republic., 1904-01-07

1t be admitted that there the national capi-
tai among Republicans who keep in close touch with
national politics, doubt the result this year. It
is present and indefinite feeling Of anxiety
rather than substantial fear, When analyzed 1t
to consist largely of the feeling that corporate
interests hostile to President Roosevelt, that
will be impossible therefore, to obtain the necessary
funds for campaign work Many Republicans are won
dering If the influence of the railroads will thrown
against the Republican party this year, 1t for it
1896 and 1900 Other Republicans speculating up-
the part which the labor will play in the next
campaign and anxiously inquiring whether will
be loyal to the Republican party.
