Plan to Relieve It's Water Supply of Aims
house Sewage

The Westchester County Grand Jury and COM
mittee Of the Board of Supervisors made visit
last week to the county almshouse at East View
investigate the complaints made by the city au-
thorites of Yonkers that the sewage from that in
stftution flows into the Saw Mill River. from which
the city takes a part OF its water supply. The
grand jury found that the complaints were fully
Justified, but that the practice had been going on
for many years. and that the present Board of
eCeSSOrS,
The committee on superintendent OF the poor,
which is in charge Of the almshOuse, will recon-
mend at the next meeting Of the Board of Super
viSgrs that the county erect a pumping station at
East View and pump the sewage which now
drains into the river over the hill 10 tho loTILGa.
The cost Of the improvement viii be about $1,000.
and according 10 its equalization Yonkers will pay
Is per cent Of this amount if it is made general
tax the county. The people of Yonkers are not
using the water from the Saw Mil River di-
recty It is filtered first. IT is only in the event
that the filter beds broke down that the water
supply would be contaminated.

THE

THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.
Read wherever the English Language
IL Spoken.

The Thuce-a-Week World was a brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of ap-
proval on the Thrice-a-Week World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritory of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1908, will make
its news service, if possible, more extern
sive than ever. All events of Importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns,
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction,
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest.
The Thrice-a-W Week Worlds regular sub
scription price is only $1.00 per year and
this pays for 156 papers. We offer this un'
equaled newspaper and The SMYRNA TIMES
together one year for $1.75. The regular
subscription price of the two papers is So. 90

Plenty of Gold.

FROM the Providence Journal
The latest reports Of the gold outnut in
the Rand warrant the expectation that the
aggregate for the current calendar vear
will exceed 100000, 600 as compared with
about $S0,0O0.00O In 1904 The ApriI WELD
is put at $S,610,oO0. the largest for any
month since September, 1899, just before
the beginning of the Boer war Indeed. IT
Is not very far below the maximum monthly
output. which was that for August 1899
9.652, 600. The rehabilitation of the Trans
vaal industries since the war has not been
quite as rapid as was expected, but 1t is
now assured. By the end of thu present
year the Rand will have become once more
the greatest gold producing field In the
world. Meanwhile there is every prospect
of considerable increases in the gold prod
uct of both the United States and Australia
sufficient. perhaps. to carry the worlds
product for 1905 above $500, 100000 Indeed
strange as it may seem to the thoughtless.
it is coming to be question whether in
the next decade the world Is not likely to
have too large an addition to its gold sup
ply for the best interests OF business. The
scramble for gold which Mr.. Bryan falsely
predicted would have been bad, of course
a glut of gold might be even worse

employed as counter-attraction to the
Tavern This, we suppose, may be regarded
as the direct fruit of the education move
ment which came into being thirty-five
years ago.
Even the most superficial observer will
hardly galnsay that the village publican
has of late years many rival caterers for
the rustic custom which was once excIu-
slvely his. Then, may not the huge clear
ances OF licensed houses, alleged to be su-
perhuous. that have taken place of late
years, have helped to diminish beer drink
ing! II 1t has not, then the wisdom Of
passing laws to reduce the number of L.
censed establishments is proved to be but
folly after all. 1t Is truly difficult prob
lem, in trying to solve which one may
easily fall into the error of generalizing
upon insufficient data. But II the serious
decline which has overtaken alcoholic
liquors can be shown to be directly attribu-
table to the increased education of the peo-
pie and the expansion of their interests
the necessity for tinkering at the licensing
statutes or of passing temperance meas
ures surely no longer exists. 1t was the
late Lord Salisbury's conviction that the
drink question would eventually be solved
not by the laws of parliament, but by the
people themselves, and events seem to be
justifying the tenacity with which he held
