Committee plans to open the campaign
for the control of the House on Au-
gust Is. From then until the Novem-
Der elections the contest will be on
in well-nigh every State in the Union
Thus far the work has been confined
to sending out large numbers of
speeches unfolding the tariff law and
otherwise defending the Republican
party. Many of President Taft's
speeches have been sent out, espe-
ciallly his Winona speech. Another
phase of the work has consisted in a
great many talks between Chairman
Mckinley and numerous Republican
members of the House in an effort to
get a line on the situations in the va
vious districts.
It is recognized by the leaders that
the struggle this year will call for I'M
usual exertions on the part of the Re
publican Congressional Committee.
Every effort Is going to be made to
put strong corps of speakers in the
field.
AS has been the case for weeks. the
leaders are hoping and to a large ex-
tent depending on Roosevelt II he
comes home, they say. and takes off
his coat for the election Of a Re
publican House, then everything will
be al right. Otherwise-but they do
not permit themselves to be drawn
into that phase Of IT,
President Taft is expected TO make
numerous speeches.

INSPECT THE
FILTER PLANT
Many Visitors Hear the Pro-
cess Of Purifing Water
Explained

Prominent citizens visited the new
filter plant yesterday where they met
the Water Commissioners. Chief Engi-
neer John A. Kienle and other city Of
hcials, and made an inspection of the
plant The big sedimentation basin
was first shown and then the visitors
we're taken to the building where the
six filters and storage reservoir are
located. The people had a novel ex-
perience as they we're carried down the
side of the building on the big electrical
transfer, which is used TO transfer the
washing machine. This big machine
was operated in order that the visitors
might see how the filter beds are clean
ed Of impurities The raw water en-
/ tering the beds in the course of time,
! leaves a film of mud upon the surface
/ of the sand, and the machinery scrapes
off this mud. the muddy water being
pumped up from near the bottom Of
the beds and is carried off by a system
of troughs.
Glass tubes were filled with the raw
water and also water after it passes
through the final filters. showing a
great contrast.
In the laboratory and administration
building DR.. Albert Robin received the
visitors and the workings of his de-
partment were explained. He stated
that the indications from results re-
ceived are that the new filters are SUI
perrior to any in the country. DIT
Robin also stated that whatever bac-
terra remains in the water after il
leaves the final filters is not SUFFICIENT
to develop in the human system. In
other words the little bacteria left is
not capable of causing disease.
That the final filters are capable OF
producing such excellent results DR.
Robin attributes to the use of an I'M
usually fine quality Of sand I'm the filter
beds. and that it is possible to use this
fine sand successfully is due to the fact
that the department owns a washing
machine. Without such A machine he
says that an unusually fine sand would
not give such good results.
Among the visitors were Mayor j
Harvey Spruance. President OF Council
James L. Banning, several members OF
Council and members Of the Board OF
Health, Charles F. Rudolph, director
of the Street and Sewer Department.
