Libeling Washington's Water.

Some way should be found to prevent
the scattering of such libelous statements
against the Washington water supply as
those that have been spread about
through the mails recently in the interest
of certain spring water offered for sale
The matter has been brought to the at
tention of the District Commissioners in
the hope Of checking this ENTERPRISE
which reflects so seriously upon the
healthfulness of the District 1t is quite
as nbelous to declare without warrant
that community is being served with
impure water TO accuse an individual
wrongfully of the commission Of a crime
or scandalous action. Yet there is no
specific individual who can present him
self as an aegrieved and injured person
All Washington is injured for the state
ment that all Washington is served with
germ-bearing water tends to do harm To
the reputation of the city and to prevent
people from coming here to establish a
residence.
The Washington water supply is TODAY
as nearly pure as ii is possible for II IN
be. The filtration plant is reckoned by
sanitarians and engineers as efficient and
as affOrding a practical safeguard against
disease. Washngton's typhoid rate has
fallen steadily since this system came
into full operation. and at the present
time the District is afflicted only with
typhoid cases that are incurred from
sources arising from outside OF this jul

New York No Longer Safe.

II has for a long time been a joke
of currency that the safest place for
criminal TO hide from the New York
police was right in New York itself
But recent events are tending to dis
prove this cynical aphorism Until
Lefty Louie and Gyp the Blood, after
weeks of immunity from arrest, were
found in Brooklyn, however. it was by
no means regarded as impossible for
a man TO hide indefinitely right under
the eyes of the metropolitan police
Possibly Reynolds Forsbrey, who while
under accusation of murder, escaped
from the Tombs about three weeks ago
through the connivance of his sweet
heart. thought the old conditions still
prevailed despite the capture of the
Rosenthal fugitives. Maybe he thought
they had been taken just as a matter of
political necessity, for public effect and
that he. not being really an important
parsonage in the eyes of the police.
would have no difficulty In retaining
his liberty. Consequently he remained
right in New York, and went about
freely and answered an advertisement
for employment as janitor OF an apart
ment house and was greatly surprised
when he was pulled out from under a
bed last night and placed under arrest
The old town is certainly not what II
used tn be.

Gov. Dix In office has been friendly
with his creator. He has shown a sense
of obligation, and Mr. Murphy would
extend his official service. One good
term-for Murphy-deserves another.
But, asked Prince Bismarck on one
occasion, What has personal gratitude
to do with politics." What, indeed at
this time with American politics? Look
at Mr. Wilson. doing" James Smith, jr.,
in truly "champeen' fashion. round
after round Look at Mr.. Roosevelt,
holding up to public scorn men who
for years served him Loyalty, and de-
nouncing as thoroughly rotten the
party which advanced him step after
step until it bestowed upon him its
highest post of honor, and whose con-
tinued favor he was soliciting only
three months ago What spectacle 1t
is therefore, to see Mr.. Murphy and
Gov Dix under bonds to each other,
sticking together!
In the case of Mr.. Murphy there is
far more than the governorship of New
York at stake His leadership of Tam
many Hall is threatened. If he loses at
Syracuse he may later lose his head
Not, of course. at once. If the state

with Mr. Wilson in the White House,
and an anti Murphy man in the gov
ernor's chair at Albany, farewell to the
Murphy power in the big town.
We behold the Tammany boss with
his back to the wall, fighting for his
life. The air is full Of knives, and his
body full of wounds. Can he hold out!
He has been in close quarters before,
and yields knife himself with skill
and vigor. 1t looks like fight to the
finish, and if the boss proves to be the
one finished the picking of his sue
cessor will be one Of the very prettiest
plays ever presented in New York poll

Mr.. Roosevelt and the South.

Having stirred up the west, and given
many a town and city a fine imitation OF
circus day, Mr.. Roosevelt swings now to
the south, where he will ask support for
his new party.
He will probably draw large crowds.
On the personal side he attracts many
southern men, and particularly young
men, He is good horseman. and
crack shot He loves the chase. lie
has dash and leadership. A combination
of student and man of action. he looks
we'll to those who themselves are the
descendants of men of that type.
On the political side he is Objectionable.
These same men, who will shake his
hand with pleasure and crowd his meet
ings to hear what he has to say, will
vote against him on election day. His
change of base as a party man will not
win their favor. They know him as
republican, and know also that If elected
in November he will surround himself
with advisers who. like himself. have
had their training in the republican party.
That is sufficient to determine their
course. Roosevelt the so-called progress
i've is as little to their fancy as was
Roosevelt the republican.
This time, it is true, Mr.. Roosevelt ap-
pears in the south as an open indorser
Of the disfranchisement of the blacks.
For years he held the opposite view,
and stood with his party on it's promises
to penalize the south for that action by
forcing its representation In Congress to
conform to the Constitution.
But the south we'll understands that
Mr.. Roosevelts conversion on that sub
ject was accidental, and it may properly
question it's sincerity. He tried for the
republican nomination at Chicago on the
old basis. If it had been possible he
would have forced himself on the repub-
lican party with the aid of delegates
from the south, some of whom were
negroes. And can any one question the
statement that had the McHarg ma
neuver succeeded, Mr.. Roosevelt as the
republican nominee would now be as
emphatic a protester of southern cleo
ton laws as he was previous to the in
auguration of the so-called progressive
movement?
The south has no electoral votes for
Mr.. Roosevelt, and he is expecting none.
This tour of his is for psychological
effect" He will point to the crowds turn
ing out to hear him, and claim that they
mean a new order of things in the south
as elsewhere under his leadership, his OBJ
ject being to hearten his followers north.
east and west, and by increasing their
numbers in those sections make sure of
Mr. Taft's defeat. The south is safely
for Wilson, and nobody is better aware
Of the fact than Mr.. Roosevelt.
