Glenn of North Carolina forcing the
railroads to respect railroad regulation,
Governor Swanson of Virginia compell-
ing the railroads of his State to reduce

not. But certainly the large land hold

New Orleans, Aug. 81. 1907.


The New Orleans Item. Daily States
and Shreveport Observation-Disclosures
The Daily States of last evening con-
talns an article signed by three citizens
of Eunice in which they declare that the
Soutern Pacific railroad refused to fur
nish them with special train on tender
of $Ioo. and that the motif of the rail
road IN its action was to keep away
from the Sanders barbecue at Crowley
MANY people who would have been there
had this train been furnished. The mat
ter was referred to Mr. Gushing. divis-
ion superintendent of that railroad
who promptly denounced the parties re-
ferred to as falsifers and gave excellent
reasons for his refusal to furnish the
train, which reasons were published in
the Tmes-Democrat and Picayune of
this date
The gentlemen, friends of Mr. San
ders. have attempted to make political
capital out of the incident by stating
that the Southern Pacific railroad was
behind Mr. Wikinson's candidacy. and
that Mr.. Wilkinson was the candidate
of corporations. The entire letter reads
like the returned manuscript of a
would-be jokist
These gentlemen in Eunice perhaps
are not aware Of the fact that Mr.. San
ders upon request, had the Illinois Cen
trail railroad stop its through limited
train. which was thirty minutes late, at
Carrollton avenue, SO that he could meet
an automobile there, which conveyance
brought him to the Texas and Pacific
railroad, which road held its limited
train twenty minutes, SO that Mr.. San
ders could make connection and attend
the Marthaville meeting the next day.
Mr.. Wilkinson would never have placed
himself under obligations, political in
every sense, to two railroads. and the
fact that a train thirty minutes late was
stopped at Carrollton avenue to accom-
n1odate Mr. Sanders, and another held
twenty minutes SO that he could catch
it, is strong evidence that the railroads
are favorable to his candidacy, and will
do what they can to assist him.
The two railroads | have mentioned
have favored Mr.. Sanders by permitting
him to attend barbecue at which it is
only fair to presume he made some
friends. If elected. will these railroads
expect Mr.. Sanders to reciprocate their
kindness? | never saw railroad i'll my
life that would grant favor and not
expect twice as much in return. The
Texas and Pacific and the Illinois Cen
trail have no records as public bene
factors.
| believe if the two incidents are to
be compared, the Wilkinson incident at
Eunice. if it can be termed Wilkinson
incident, bears no resemblance to the
open favoritism shown Mr.. Sanders by
the Illinois Central and the Texas and
Pacific railroads. Very truly,

PURE DRINKING WATER.

There is not more nor purer drinking
water to be found anywhere in North
Louisiana, where many springs abound
that are noted throughout large COM
munity for their GOODNESS and pleasant
taste. and where there are many pretty
running streams.
The waterworks furnishing Shreve-
port with water supply are fed by a
canal which reaches springs in series
Of high hills. All of the city's supply is
filtered by the latest processes. As seen
from the tables of analysis in the office
Of the Parish Board of Health. practi-
cally 100 per cent of the suspended mat
ter is removed from the city's water
supply. or i'll other words, this supply
is, for all practical purposes. chemically
pure President J. c. Egan of this board
in discussing the pure water supply.
said:
Approximately 60 to 70 per cent Of
the coloring matter is removed. Eighty
six per cent of the heterogeneous organic
material, in living condition, is re-
moved, as shown by the difference in
the amounts Of abuminoid ammonia
Ninety per cent of the first products of
decomposition of heterogeneous organic
matter is removed, as shown by amounts
of free ammonia. Seventy-6ve per cent
of the carbonaceous organic matter in
the water is removed by filtration.
About o6 per cent Of the iron is re-
moved, and about % per cent Of the
bacteria are removed.
Taking tip the analysis of the filtered
water. we have only about two-thirds as
much albuminoid ammonia and say one
tenth of the free ammonia that is al
lowed by the Michigan standard of pur
ity of water supply. This standard be-
ing about as high as any in the United
States Practically all of the iron is
taken out and IS per cent of the color
ing matter. About 90 per cent of the
bacteria. which are principally ordinary
water bacteria, have been removed, SO
that the water company is furnishing a
filtered water which is clear, practically
coloress, with small numbers Of BAG
terra. and with small amounts of or
ganic matter. Many samples of raw and
filtered water have been examined, in
order to obtain, if possible, the germ
B. Coli Communis, which occurs i'll
great numbers in sewage and focal dis
charges. This bacteria, however, has not
been found in either raw or filtered
water, in about fifty samples. So this
test shows that there is no sewage in the
raw water. In general, it can be said,
that if we get good reduction of or d.
nary water bacteria, we are very safe in
assuming that there are no disease
germs in the filtered water; as they are
less resistant than ordinary water bac-
teria being out of their natural environ
ment So we would expect to get a
better removal Of these pathogenlc
germs than of ordinary water bacteria.
This filtered water is Of medium hard
ness. but is a satisfactory water for or
binary domestic use
