WATER RUNNING
THROUGH BIG
PIPE Line


The city has completed the big
pipe line from the gulch dams to
the U. P. tunnel and the water is
now running through it, giving
plenty of water to flush the dirt
down into the gulch under the Pa
cific avenue bridge.
The work of tunnel excavation
is going slowly, however. The
contractors have not yet got all
their arrangements completed for
handling the ground at the mouth
of the tunnel and they are busy
now on this proposition.
A big box will be built at the
tunnel portal to take the ground
and the water will be turned into
this to wash the dirt out.

QUESTION OF CLUB ETHICS.
Officers Should Not Run Against Each Other,
Mrs. De Rivera Thinks

Won1ar's clubdom got considerably wrought up
yesterday when it was noised abroad that MRS
BELLE de Rivera one Of the candidates for the
presidency of the City Federation of Clubs, which
holds its election tomorrow, had resigned he
presidency of the New York Equal Suffrage League
AS there is small but active body OF ann-su1-
fragtsts In the City Federation, and each faction
wants its support the rival faction. headed by Mrs
William Grant Brown Immediately jumped to the
conclusion that Mrs. de Rivera, who has long been
noted as an ardent sufragtst, was playing 10 the
',entis" and the resignation of the presidency was
magnihed into a retirement from all sunFage or
ganizations As the 'antis' constitute mere
handful in the federation this seemed some
what unnecessary Difference TO their feelings. ouI
campaign feelings have reached such a white heat
that both parties throwing reason to the winds
When Mrs, de Rivera applied TO for an ex-
panation she said 1t was fact that she had re-
signed the presidency of the Equal Suffrage League
which has held for half dozen years. but tnat
she had no intention Of withdrawing from It. sac
that she was still an officer of the county organiza-
ton She also denied that her action had anything
to do with the ANTI vote.
1T is simple matter Of club ethics she SAID
II DO not think II looks well for president 10 be
running against TWO of her own officers and of
her members II doesn't look as If We had any
club loyalty. I not critictSng any one else s
stand but I felt this way about 1t. II seemed 10
me that the only thing for to do was TO resign
didn't do this before because it is matter which
concerns only my own club, and not the federation
and I didn't expect it to be known until after the
election. The resignation viii not be read until
the next meeting Of the Equal Suffrage League, on
February 12.'
The officers OF the Equal Suffrage League who
are running against Mrs. de Rivera are Miss Mary
Garrett Hay, treasurer, and Mrs. Alice ". Gf-
ford, secretary, who candidates for sec
ond vice-president and recording secretary on the
Brown ticket, and the member is Mrs Brown her
self. Mrs de Rivera's action raises interesting
question, and which does not concern only the
Equal Suffrage League. for the same situation OBJ
teins in tbs Press Club, Nine Evans Won Klenner

presidency on the de Rivera ticket, while Miss
