WHAT OTHEB PEOPLE THINK ]

$T Hydrants and Typhoid. * * -To, &» Editor 0* The; Journal,

The main h a s t been repaired and the E a s t Side pumps stopped; the water from the reservoir has been tes ted and found a s pure a s Glenwood and Indian Spring water , and yet^ there HB typhoid on the Southeast side* Where . is the trouble? i f i t is in the water at \ ,a ir ft i s in the hydrant. The ftydrani^ on Sixth s treet S E ' and Sixteenth tfvenue, a t the end of the main until this year, h a s -not been flushed s ince September. There have been t i m e s w h e n i t h a s not been flushed for more-than a year, and then only w h e n com­plaint has been made. J. a m told by those w h o l ive a t other corners in this v ic ini ty that it is the same w i t h other hydrants .

W h e n these hydrants are flushed the cap i s removed and the filthy water leaps across the street. Many people will, *io doubt, aga in drink c i ty water, a n d ' t h e hea l th of the cbmmunlty will suffer. I would l ike some 6ne to 'set c i ty w a t e r in a pail for s ix months or a year, even tho that pail be kept running over, and analyze the dregs. This is about the s ta te of t h i n g s w e have in the hydrants .

Fair Play for General Brlstow. To the Editor of The Journal.

The a t tacks being made upon Fourth Ass i s tant Postmaster General Br is tow by certain congressmen are undignified, in ­consis tent and unfair.

They are undignified because they are couched In the language of m e n w h o are supposed to be gent lemen. They are in ­consistent because they are a imed a t a subordinate official who has s imply obeyed the orders of his superiors, and received their commendat ions for the manner in which he has pet formed the service com­plained of. They are unfair because they impugn mot ives and condemn methods by a reasoning which has no support save that which ex is ts l a their own inflamed a n d disordered, imaginations. W h y such a storm about nothing? W h y should members of congress be afraid to trust the discriminating judgment of the people concerning reports Q£ public officials cov­ering the administration of the affairs of the postal service? After such a display how can they expect that a n invest igat ion conducted by themse lves , concerning the s a m e matters , will be accepted a s moreJ

worthy of public approval than that w h i c h has been made by the postal authorit ies?

The public is well informed concerning the pract ices which have prevailed among congressmen of all parties from t ime out of mind in the thr i f ty - seek ing after de ­partment favors for * const i tuents , a n d especial ly for political creditors. The temptat ion to trade these favors for sub­stant ia l support makes a case aga ins t d e ­partment officials and members of con­gress which has long been a m e n a c e to good government , and which all good cit i ­zens wil l be glad to s ee destroyed. Those who have jus t c laims aga ins t the gov ­ernment should have easy a c c e s s to the offices which audit and pay claims, w i t h ­out the intervention of congressmen.

Congressmen might favor friends and hinder enemies in the prosecution of c la ims pass ing thru their hands if the mat ter of favor is to be governed by discretion rather than law. General Br l s ­tow has possibly reached a l itt le further than w a s necessary to convict specific persons of specific offenses, but he has pricked a boil on the body politic w h i c h has long needed such attent ion, and the rant ing of mad congressmen wil l be abundant ly countered by the approval of the public.

Congress i s a great power in (he land, but the people who make congresses are a greater power. W e are indeed m a k ­ing headway wi th the idea tha t public office is a public and not a private trust,

1J68 a l l d w e w u l reach the realization o f that

,One of the largest checks ever drawn was used in completing a deal in Klmberley mines. It was drawn up by the De Beers, for the round sum of $25,000,000. At the nime.lt was sup­posed to be the largest check ever arawn, repre­senting more wealth in the smallest possible form than any other object in the world. Since the drawing of the De Beers check, however, several new records have been made, Including a check for $50,000,000, drawn upon the Bank of England by the Chinese government in settle­ment of the Chinese-Japanese war indemnity.

Some carious instances of the physical defect of "word blindness" are given In the Lancet. The disease is, fortunately, uncommon. In one case the sufferer, an Englishman, 84 years of age, who know Greek, Latin and French well, suddenly lost all knowledge of English tho be could rend and understand Greek perfectly and Latin and French in a rather smaller degree. An­other and almoAt more curious case was that of a man who lost the power of reading at sight. This patient was able to write,, accurately from dictation, but was completely unable to read what he had written. Word blindness is appa­rently akin to color blindness, but is cer­tainly attended by much more Inconvenient con­sequences.

Soldiers' Pensions. To the Editor of The Journal.

The practical effect of the law of 1893 is to shield the board of trustees of the Soldiers' H o m e from criminal prosecutions under the laws of the Uni ted S ta te s g o v ­ernment, and to prevent a recovery in civil act ions for amounts taken from soldiers' pensions.

N o part of the money taken from the members of the Minnesota Soldiers' H o m e has been expended for the benefit of old soldiers' or their dependent ones, outside the Minnesota Soldiers' Home . If it is taken, i t Is done in violation of the cr im­inal l aws of the Uni ted S ta tes government . A s evidence that no part of the pension money taken a s ment ioned i s appropriated is that Mr. Towler, president of the board of trustees of Minnesota Soldiers' Home, w h e n pressed to the wall, s ta ted to a joint legis lat ive commit tee of the last legis la­ture assembled, that no part thereof w a s taken and donated for outside relief. The Uni ted States government donates for the support of each v e t e r a n , i n the Minnesota

Soldiecs' H o m e $100 for h is year­ly support, less one-half the gross amount taken of his pension. The practical effect of which i s that it t akes 52 of the old veterans' pensions that $1 m a y be fumbled by the board of trustees . I t m a k e s the proud s tate of Minnesota a pensioner^of the national government, and i t exi les and banishes from the s ta te the old pioneers and veterans and compels them to seek protection of their country's iflag outside Minnesota and sepulchre a m o n g strangers. The s ta t e loses b y the above practice, a s est imated, $7,000 yearly, or in gross amount be tween $80,000 and $100,000. % _ A > Q s
