Copper In Water Kills Germs.

In looking to the publication of the
water supply, either the local farm sup
ply or the water for a great city, re-
markable results are announced from

destroying heterogeneous in water,
which was discovered about year ago

Bureau Of Plant Industry at Washing
ton. 1t consists simply in dissolving O
certain quantity Of copper sulphate in
the water to be purified. Fortunately
| the dilution can be made so large that
mo deleterious effects are produced up
| on the water intended for drinking
purposes. One part OF copper sulphate
to eight million parts of water Is the
proportion generally used, and 1t Is
pointed out that, In order to obtain
any effect OF copper from such a mix
ture man would have to drink forty
gallons of the water.
During the latter part OF 1904 more
than fifty sources Of water supply in
the United States we're treated by this
method with gratifying success. Not

stroyed but the green growths that fire.

confident OF his ability to manage his

the heavy wind that kept back all the

were We in watching the uncanny move
ments OF the strange boat that we did
not observe the confusion on board the
Frederick, nor ON the others that were
successfully visited. LeFevre noticed
the great ships settling low in the
water, and spoke of it TO me. There
was something terrible about this de-
stroyer. Inside of fifteen minutes every
vessel in that fleet had been stung, as
1t We're, by this great hornet of the sea,
and every one was sinking. The sea-
men were throwing themselves off:

SOME lNSURGENT INCON-
SlSTENcIES.

The following from the jamestown
Alert is apt as showing the incon-
sistencies of the "insurgents,' with
whom preaching and practice are
widely at variance:
State Senator Crane of Gr;ggs
county is candidate for reelection
to the legislature. He is very much
1nf1amed against the machine" and
the gang" as he calls it. The
Cooperstown Courier states that Mr.
Crane has been member of the leg
islature twice before; that he voted
once against the primary election
bill and once for it; that he accepted
an appointment on the agricultural
college board at the hands of the
governor nominated by the very
gang he denounces, and rode to Far
go on pass; that he voted for the
capitol commission bill proposed by
the gang" adm voted to confirm the
capitol commissioners, appointed by
the governor of that terrible gang:
that Mr.. Crane afterwards roasted in
the press the men he voted for know
ing them as well before as after. The
question arises is Mr.. Crane wiser
and purer now than then? The
Courier commenting on Mr.. Cranes
fighty course further says:
CAS- a reformer he seems to work
hand and glove with the gang, and
then he stands off at distance and
yells gang at somebody because they
don't support him for reelection.
If his votes on these two occasions
were mistakes then all we have to
say is that if he goes back we had
better send a guardian back with him
to tell him when and how to vote"
This instances, of the reform
methods displayed by leaders of the
state insurgents, is given at some
length, not merely to show that Mr..
Cranes is a single case of jumping up
and down to attract attention, to get
reelected to the legislature. His case
appears to be type of a good many
other benefciaries of the party who
assume to be leaders of the "good
government league" +. T.:
The sense of gratitude for past
honors and profits at the hands of
their party seems never to have en-
tered their souls. Rank partisans
themselves when h the Darty shields
and benefits them, shouting for and
voting for and stumping for the ina
chine" and it's methods when they
are on the ticket, as soon as they are
rotated out of the job on the wheel
of "a square deal for alp they COM
mence to denounce the very power
that gave them all the honors and
profits they have ever had.
