LAND AND WATER.

The City of Providence proposes to
take, and in fact has already condemned,
l6,6OO acres of land in Scituate and
Foster for storage reservoir. Accord
ing to figures, and it is a very simple
example in arithmetic, we arrive at the
somewhat startling conclusion that this
is one -fiftieth of the total area OF the
State of Rhode Island. In other words,
the agricultural acreage OF the com,
monwealth is cut down that extent that
the people of Providence may have a
water supply that is apparently con
siderably exceeding what they may ever
need. SO the food supply OF the people
of the state is very liable to suffer IN
the possible over safeguarding OF one
city's water supply.

TASKS FOR CONGRESS.

The Congress of the United States
when it has time, should attend to three
matters of public welfare which seem
to us highly important.
lst. To enact some legislation so that
no state, by hasty and ill-advised law
making, can plunge the country into wal
with a foreign power. For example, re-
cent acts of the Idaho Legislature.
2nd. 1t should make an effort to sc
adjust Federal laws so that 1T Will be
more apparent to people of other coun'
tries, who come to the United States
to reside, that they cannot safely have
two countries.
3rd. To devise some plan by whlcl
the present fragrant speculation in food
stufis is ut least curtailed.

POLITICS VS.. CRAFTSMANSHIP.

The transfer of General Leonard Wood
from the most important military de-
partment in the country to one OF the
least on the eve of war, naturally ex-
cites criticism that is wide and unfav-
orable. 1t is difficult to conceive that
the Administration can let so small
thing as personal pique and prejudice
affect the very safety of the nation, but
in looking for motives it is certainly
hard work to trace this very singular
order to any other source.

TOPUT DOWN MOBS
New Government Now Has
Full Support, Say Dispatches
To Mission.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-The Rus
sian Provisional Governments first
threat Of force TO suppress disorders
in Petrograd was reported IN de-
spatches to the Russian MIasion here

spatohea from Petrograd TO the mis-
sion here. showing the full support of

and soldiers, the peasants and all but
the minority radical Socialists, was
given out to-day. The summary says
The resolutions adopted by the Pan
Russian conference of peasant dele
gates and the Council Of workmen
and Soldiers manifested a full agree
ment with the programme Of the Gov
ernment, which thus has the support
Of these strong organizations with the
great authority among tho masses."
Some nervousness was felt In Pc
trograd q few days ago on account OF
rumors OF counter revolution move
ments, which proved without founda-
ton. On that occasion the radical
elements intended TO organize public
manifestations in the street The
Provisional Government proclaimed
that all attempts at violence would be
crushed with all the force Of the
State authorities. At the Same time
the Council of workmen and Soldiers
asked the citizens and soldiers not to
participate in the demonstration. but
to refrain for three days from ali
manifestations.
"The extremists did not carry out
their resolution" say the dispatches.
This event ts considered in Russia
as a great moral success of the Gov
ernment and OF tho nations majority
which supports the Government"
. The Russian Mission will go to New
York July for q three days visit.
The programme will be similar to
those OF the French, British and Ital-
ian Missions.

the priest alleged by Cocchl to have
harbored him on Charlton Street after
tho murder, has convinced the au-
thoritles that he gave tho fugitive
no aid. Although Father Moretto re-
fused to discuss the nature OF the
confession Cocchi made, stating that
this was an ecclesiastical. not a civil
matter, he Let II be inferred from GER
tain statements that the confession
did not include any admission by
Cocchi that he had slain Ruth Cruger.
In pursuance OF the policy formu-
lated by Commissioner Woods as a
result OF the Cruger case Of lnyestI-
gating carefully everything anybody
