Curious Customs.

In many parts of England there ex
lists even today a very curious custom
which makes it imperative for the girl
friends of bride to drench the door
step Of her home with boiling water II
they wish other marriages to follow
very quickly. At the wedding. there
fore, great kettles of hot water stand
ready for this strange ceremony, and
long after the rest OF the guests have
dispersed the young girls of the party
may be seen keeping the threshold
warm as long as the water supply will
last. Likewise, in Iceland. where va
rious interesting and fantastic super
stitions abound, there is an ancient
custom that every bride must invite
all her friends to a dinner in her own
home, and every article of food must
be prepared by the bride herself. III
she succeeds In pleasing her critical
guests she achieves not only praise for
her own skill alone, but she helps along
her own younger sisters, who are then
assumed to he equally well instructed

STILL PROMISING.

The speech of President Roosevelt delivered in Washington on Saturday contained nothing in addition to what he has said many times. He deals lot of pretty generalities concerning the duties of citizenship. He speaks of the capital combinations and their need of regulation, but he makes no specific recommendation along that line. He speaks of the pending rail road rate legislation. but makes no ef- fort to maintain his original recon mendations on this subject. He mere ly mentions it as one of the efforts being made to remedy existing evil. So far as his remarks about the man with the "muck rake" all will agree that good citizenship is found in the man who condemns wrong and up- holds right in conservative and de termined manner. We think the president is over cautious in warning the people against becoming too radi- cal in their condemnation of the pres ent evils, which have grown up in our system of government under the fos- tering care of the republican party He evinces great solicitude about these evils being accused wrongfully and asks for them the tenderest hand ling.
 The president, in pointing out the character of the muck rake" individ- ual, seems to forget that he has de- scribed pretty closely the republican party which, during the last quarter of a century, has been unable to see but the one class in this country when matters of legislation were up for consideration. He does not point to the fact that the evils now so appar- ent in our government are the result ci republican legislation to protect one class of our citizens at the ez- pense of another and much larger class. He says nothing about the fac, that the trusts and their attendant evils have been fostered by republi cans, and that in return for this fos- tering care the trusts and great mon jed interests of the country have filled the republican campaign coffers to oyertiowing- The republican party in it's attitude towards the trusts and the money power is typical muck rake" in that it has devoted its time to the fostering of their interests and has been unable to see the interest of any one else.
 President Roosevelt has been long on promises since he reached the White House, but when it comes to performance, he has fallen far short of expectations, and while for a time he was able to win applause by his promises and threats of the 'big stick" the time has now arrived for him to make good or rapidly decline in public estimation.

WHAT WILL THE COUNCIL DOT

The appearance in the city this week of the officials of the Hiuachuca Water company, who came with the avowed intention of giving to Bisbee an additional water supply. will no doubt take the shape of an application to the city council before the clocs Of the present month for permit to lay their pipes in the streets of the city. A permit to lay their pipes in all parts of the county, and particularly along the road leading from the Hua- chuca mountains to Bisbee, was granted by the board of supervisors last week.
 No doubt if the Huachuca Water company makes the request of the council the same will be granted. Bis bee needs little more competition in the business of public utilities and ne ce ssities. But. before the council grants any permit of any nature the council should require the Huachuca Water company or any other company to deposit a bond that the proposed new water system will be built and operated. That would bind the bar gain, and if the Huachuca Water company means business this time they should not object to this stipula- ton being inserted in the permit.
