From our exchanges received week
by week we gather that in sister coun-
ties and in all other counties of the
State in fact, there are hosts Of candi-
dates willing TO serve the dear peo-
pie inpublic offices, while 50 far as
the columns of the Herald show, and
there is no other paper published in
Prince Edward, no one is asking for
county place or county pay. This is
unusual to say the least Of it, and is
indicative of one Of two conditions,
either that there is profound indifler-
euce on the part of aSpirants or that
the people are so well satisfied with
thing, as they are that even a Sugge,-
ton Of change is not in order.

timely one, for shortly after the pro

The Proposed Dam.

The Daily Times, in discussing the
matter of the proposed new dam, says:
A committee of the city council has
visited Milwaukee and Racine to look
into the sewerage question which may
confront the city of Watertown by the
construction of dam at the old Boom
er site in the southern limits of the city,
but what the report will be is not known
for publication, but it is rumored that
it will be adverse to the passage of the
bill in the legislature granting the
privilege. II is claimed that nc height
of dam is specified in the bill, and we
believe at the outset that this should be
taken into account. 1t is probable,
however, that the company will not
construct dam Of height sufficient
so as to Interfere with persons owning
and operating Misunderstanding estab-
lishments at the new dam between the
Touring mills. Therefore the height
should be stated pproximately at least.
With regard to its effect on the sewer
age of the city is another thing If
dam is to be constructed which will
create cesspool in the river south of
present main sewer, it is certainly OBJ
jectionable and the bill should meet
with opposition, 1t is possible. how
ever. that dam may be constructed
which will not interfere with the sew
age disposal. If suitable sluiceways
are made part Of the dam, through
which water may readily flow during
the high stage Of the river in the spring
months, the sewage will be carried off.
At other periods during the summer
the sluiceways could be opened to give
the necessary flow, acting like flush
ing process, IN use in many cities.
This should be left under the control of
the board of public works and board Of
health. who could order such sluice-
ways opened when they deemed it nee
essary for public health and good sani
tation. So far as the interests Of the
city lie the matter should be investi-
gated thoroughly, and it might be pos
sible to arrive at an agreement with
the company asking for the passage Of
the bill, whereby the city will not be
put to any danger or financial loss in
the matter. We welcome any improve
ments, but not at a direct loss to the
people of the city as regards public
| health.
