each office be conducted upon BUSH
ness basis just as the candidate would
carefully curtail all unnecessary ex-
pense In his own private business.
No office holder has any more right to
wilfully waste funds of the county
than has an employee Of a private
corporation to make extravagant ex-
penditures of his employers money.
The question of politics should not
enter into the county affairs and the
whole county should be considered
as a cooperative concern with the
officeholder as manager and trustee.
1t is matter of little moment to any
body but the politicians whether a Re-
publican or a Democrat fills the office
so long as it is filled capably.

1t is not the purpose of any OF the
citizens to unjustly criticise the city
council about the condition OF the
water system. Everyone feels that
the members Of the council have
problem on their hands, and for that
reason a great deal of patience is be-
ing shown with the necessary delays
toward improving the waterworks
system. All that the people ask is
that instead of temporary make
shift improvement that when the i'm
provements go in as they surely must,
that they be such nature as to pro-
vide for the future of the city no mat
ter what it's growth may be. But the
first thing that enters the mind Of the
taxpayers is what kind of water is
to be delivered and whether it will
be of continued purity There has
been some talk of the company being
allowed to run pipes to the high line
canal and take the supply from there
line canal Such a step would not
do away with the complaint to more
than a slight degree. When the Sal
mon River irrigated land is under Gull
tivation the high line canal will prove
the same menace as the low line TO-
day, the drainage of waste water con-
terminating the city's supply. Sooner
or later the city must provide sup
ply of water, pure beyond a suspic-
ion of a doubt and the time to do 1t
is now. If it means the condemna-
ton of the present system, do it now
| before some of our homes are visited
with sickness due to our neglect. he
people are in mood to vote any
amount of bonds that the council may
call for in order that the frightful con-
dition of the present be cared fo1
promptly.

Neither side will have place on the

ON WAY
TO BRAZIL
FLEET OF REAR ADMIR-
AL BOB EVANS.
FINE APPEARANCE
AS 1T STEAMED ON
ITS WAY.

Port Of Spain, Trinidad, Jan. 1.
The American battleship feet
weighed anchor at o'clock Tuesday
afternoon and steamed for Rio Janeiro
Accompanying the fleet were the sup
ply ships Culgoa and Glacier. Early IN
the morning the signal went up from
Rear Admiral Evans flagship, the Con-
necticut, to prepare for departure at
8 a. m, but owing to the delay in the
coaling o. the battleship Maine from
the collier Fortuna, it was necessary
to change the time of sailing.
Long before the hour set myriad
of small craft, chiefly launches ana
steam yachts, moved up and down
along the lines of anchored warships,
the merry parties aboard shouting
farewell to the departing vessels.
Thousands of residents climbed the
surrounding hills to view the great
ships as they moved outward on their
journey of 5000 miles and more, while
boatloads of excursionists went to the
small islands in the gulf and others to
the floating dock to catch the last
glimpse of the ships that were SO
royalty welcomed to this port almost a
week ago.
The fleet presented a magnificent
appearance as it steamed out in four
columns, with the supply ships trail
ing, distance of 400 yards separating
one division from another. With the
Connecticut in the lead, the battleships
headed for the Booas and steamed ma
jestically through the Grand Booa and
thence along the northern coast Of
Trinidad. An average of 10 to II knots
an hour will carry the fleet to the end
of the second lap of the $4,000 mile
journey in about IL days, and it was
announced by Admiral Evans before
his departure that he expects to reach
Rio Janeiro January 10.
During the week of their visit. here
the American officers and men re
ceived every courtesy at the hands OF
the residents. Sir Henry Moore Jack
son, the governor of Trinidad, Colone
Swain and other high officials, gave
dinners and garden parties in honor
Of the commander of the fleet and his
officers, and there were scores of ex
cursions and entertainments for thu
men. all of whom enjoyed more thar
the ordinary amount of shore leave
The newspapers here and the residents
are unsparins in their praise of the ex
emplary behavior of the men, and the
papers compliment Admiral Evans il
the warmest terms, expressing to hin
and his men the best wishes of the PEG
pie of Trinidad and the hope that they
will soon return.

THE OLD RED CRADLE.

Twas just a little old red cradle
That used to stand against the wall,
Twas worn and marked and badly bat
tered,
Though once the nest of baby small
It had no bows or knots of ribbons,
And little, too, of carver's art,
But once it held a precious baby
That won a place in every heart.
His eyes were bright and blue and pretty,
His dimples, too, a wee, wee speck,
little hair, but soft as velvet
With pretty chin and fair white neck
And he could kiss. o like fairy,
There never was so sweet a mouth,
lie really was an angel being,
Sweeter than zephyrs from the South.
But, now the old red cradles empty,
The hand that rocked will rock no
more,
It's place is now a dusty garnet.
With useless things and such like store !;
o. are-thee-well you old red cradle.
No one will care as days go by.
Md. yet, the cutest babe Of babies
Years gone within you used to lie!
Horace Eaton Walker.
