The Water Problem.

1t would pay the people of this town
to set in motion demand for pledges
from candidates for Mayor and Council
to adopt a system for installing metres
in all places where water is consumed
1t would twice pay them, both as
people and consumers, because it would
make cost of water uniform.
1t would thrice pay them, because
every consumer would then become an
economist in the use of water
Owners of property where water is
consumed should own the metres, so as
to relieve the town of so much care,
but, like all other water regulations,
they should be under town oversight.

Everybody for Water Tranrporta.
tiGn.

The Rivers and Harbors Congress
that IS in session in Washington
this week has had quite love-feast.
1t has been addressed by tie See.
retary OF State, Representative Burt
on OF the Rivers and Harl oYs
Appropriations Committee, and ly
James J. Hill of the Great Northern
and Pres. Finley of the Southern.
The railroad men beth spoke the
river men fair and said that the
traffic OF the country was frankly
beyond the capacity of the roads to
handle and they would welcome
anything that could he done in the
way of creating an efficient SYSTEM
OF water transportation. This at
least put them on record as being
friendly to the aims of the Congress
and that ought to help good deal.

Farewell ReceD:ion.

The ladies of the Cemetery As
sociation entertained in honor of
Mrs. Hugh Stokes, Tuesday after
noon at the home of Mrs. F. NJ.
Crosby. The gathering was com
posed of the members of the Associ-
alton and some of the intimate
friends and neighbors of Mrs. Stokes
numbering about thirty. 4 short
program under the direction of Mrs.
F. F. Dean was rendered during
the afternoon, which consisted Of
piano solos by Mrs. H. NJ. Bartlett
and Charles CARRIER vocal solos by
Mrs. Fay F. Dean and Mrs. L. r.
Whitelock and a reading by Mrs.
Brown. After the program, sand
wiches, pickles, cheese, cookies and
coffee were passed by Mrs. Crosby.
Mrs. Mckain, Mrs. Carnahan. Mrs.
Dean and Mrs. Soth. The ocasion
was enjoyed by all and yet tinsed
with sadness at thought of parting
with Mrs. Stokes, who has been q
faithful member Of the society and
also member of the board Of
trustees and it was with deep and
sincere regret that the goodbyes
were said. Mr.. and Mrs. Stokes
leave the first of the year for Cali

Considering Currency Relief.

The report of the Secretary of the
Treasury submitted this week is
long document, too involved in its
multiplicity of figures to make in
teresting reading for the average
layman. But Secretary Cortelyou
has few things to say for himself
on the subject of currency relief that
are well worth noting. There has
been good deal of criticism of the
Treasury Department for the
method it took of relieving the
money market when it issued Treas
ury notes and sold Panama bonds
to bring the coin back into circula-'
ton. Mr.. Cortelyou points out
that there was urgent necessity for
some action to avert a serious panic
and that while the Treasury was
much handicapped by law in the
relief measures it was able to take
1t did the best in could under the
circumstances, and it is rather un-
generous now to blame it for giving
the very help that was so clamor-
ously demanded at the time. He
says that the responsibility for the
situation rests on Congress, and
while he has no specific plan to pro-
pose, he recommends urgently some
Legislation that shall put speedily in
to the hands of the Secretary of the
Treasury means for financial relief
that will not be open to criticism.
1t appears to him, says Mr.. Cortel-
you, that something should be done
while Congress is debating over ul-
innate legislative remedies.
One of the first things done this
week was for the House Committee
on Banking and Currency to get to-
gether and appoint a subcommittee
to draft a Currency Reform bill.
This looked tolerably well on the
face of it, but there is far cry be-
tween the appointing Of sub
committee and the passage of legis-
lation. 1t is known that Chairman
Fowler of the committee is bitterly
opposed to the measures Secretary
Cortelyou has already taken for the
relief of the money market. Mr..
Gillispie of Texas, one of the men,
bers of the subcommittee is opposed
to Mr.. Fowler without being in ac-
cord with Secretary Cortelyou. The
next meeting of the Currency Com
mittee is a week off and it is not
thought even then that there will
be any bill reported. After the bill
gets into committee, it will be long
time in being eoorted to the House,
and what snags it may run against
there before it comes to a hearing
can only be surmised, but probably
they will be plentiful.
