real grievances is not TO be disputed There is
reason to think that the great profits of the
mine owners would some time ago have war
ranted an increase in wages, and that more at
tention should have been given to appliances
and methods for the safety and comfort of the
men. 1t seems clear, too, that if full meas
ure of energy had been put forth at the time
of the recent mine disaster many more lives
might have been saved. NJ. Clemenceau In
deed succeeded in impressing these facts upon
the mine owners and in securing from them q
substantial increase of wages. But the miners
put themselves in the wrong by refusing to
have the matter thus settled by mediation and
by resorting to violence and lawbreaking, and
we must regard that wrong as grossly aggra-
waited by the organization OF a universal strike
in support of that lawbreaking. So far as we
can perceive, NJ. Clemenceau has Loyalty tried
to remain the champion Of the proietariat, but
the extremists among the Socialists and labor
unions have alienated themselves from him by
their law defying course.

IL was q, 100000 tons So that in it's peculiar
field as domestic fuel hard coal Is actually
losing ground. and perhaps only habit and the
anti-smoke ordinances Of our Eastern cities keep
a market open for the smaller sizes against the
pressure of the cheaper htuminous product.
The railroads have hitherto assisted in check
ing the entry of cheap soft coal into hard coal
territory. But as soon as the soft coal opera
tors of West Virginia get free hand IN trans
portation, their competition in this reCion will
endanger hard coal interests. The anthracite
industry has not been managed with any
marked consideration for the consumer. The
operators and miners may wake up some day
to find that by nursing strikes and inviting soft
coal raids they have both alienated popular
good will and driven former customers into new
habits and new alliances.

PROGRESS TOWARD WATER SUPPLY

The report OF the Board of Water Supply TO
the Mayor concerning the work already done
toward increasing the city's supply OF potable
water is essentially a report Of progress, and
on the whole we must regard this as rapid and
substantial progress marked with discretion
and economy. and effected in what seems TO be
the most desirable direction. The need of such
progress is urgent According TO competent
and authoritative engineers, this city is at the
present time overdrawing the safe yield Of the
Croton region TO the extent Of 10 per cent and
is increasing the margin of danger at the rate
of per cent year Last year the daily CON
sumption was 100000 gallons more than the
safe capacity Of the sources. With such a con-
oiuon confronting US. the board does well TO
press Its operations Just as strenuously as tbe
laws delay will permit
Great needs demand great supplies. and great
supplies cannot be secured without great cost

THE CURRENCY PLAN
 HAS SHAW'S APPROVAL
He Will However Make No Urgent Demand Upon Congress in Its Be- half.

Washington. Nov. 17.--Secretary Shaw of the treasury department today authorized the following statement upon the subject of the proposed cur rency legislation: Tn his previous re- ports the secretary of the treasury has recommended currency legislat!on-.but has never recommended any particu- lar plans to the exclusion of others. He is much gratified at the attention given the subject by the chamber or commerce, by the bankers associations and by the committees appointed by each. He has remained in the cabinet largely in the hope of securing some legislation upon the subject, but he has not recommended and will not rec ommend the details of such legislation. That is the province of congress under the advice it may deem wise or it may have the opportunity of receiving. The secretary will be pleased beyond meas ure if congress will adopt every de- tail of the plan recommended by the bankers and business men. He thinks congress will have no difficulty in working out a plan thereby satisfac- tory to all.
 When congress decided to pass a tariff law the Dingley bill was prompt ly put upon the statute books. When 1t decided to pass rate bill no unneces- sary delay ensued. If it shall under- take to add an elastic feature to our present currency system, there is no doubt of favorable results in short order. That such action Is imperative he thinks recent experiences make ap- parent. In his report he will strongly urge that something be done, and may suggest several methods for the con- sideration of congress.
 "The secretary of the treasury, be- ing charged only with the responsibD- ity of administering his department under the law as it exists, and of mak- ing reports to congress, will not assume the responsibility involved in recom- mending the details of the needed leg islation. The subject matter and the end necessary to be attained, he will fully discuss"

4 Hurried Getting Together of the Republican County Central Com mttee.

There was a meeting of the repub- 1ican county central committee yester- day morning. called for the purpose of closing up the affairs of the late cam paign. In the hurry of fair week the matter of giving the members of the committee notice was neglected until almost the eve of the meeting day. The notice to some of them was liter ally of the eleventh hour kind, since the postOffice stamp on the envelopes containing the notice shows that they were passing through the stamping machine at II p. m. on Friday night.
 In consequence of this sort of mo- tificatiOn there were only eleven of the sixty members of the committee pres ent Instead of transacting the busi- ness which had been. described in the notification the matter of continuing the organization was proposed against the protest of five of the eleven mem bers who are supposed tO have not favored such a continuance.
 The usual after-csImpaign business was not transacted in its entirety Chairman MintZ has announced that in view of the insufficient notification which was given the members. thus rendering their attendance impossible, he will issue. call for another meet ing
