Tho Capital City lins started In on u campaign for a supply of puro mountain vntcr for tho use of the pcoplo of this city and suburbs and otnto institutions. This is tho larg est ami moot , Important undertak ing that lins over been started In this city, and one that will tax tho best efforts of the men who have been onlintcd. The committee of 15 tlnt mot with Uovornor Chamborlaln "Wednesday to consider ways and moans to bring about this desidera tum comprise the bet and most public spirited citizenship of Snlom It comprises men from nil walks of lire, from the highest public offi cial!) to the man of ordinary means who works at his trade for a liv ing.

The personnel of tho rommltteo could not bo bettir nor of higher character. Of course, It Is understood Hint tho work of this commission will only bo preliminary.

More liunplo will como hero to live nnd moro homes will be o'tabllshod here on account of this movement. Let us not underestimate tho value of this proposition from a home-building standpoint. Many a man Is do lor red from making thle city Ms homo becnuso some one has told lilm thoro Is not the best drlnklu wnter hero.

Henco tho biggost boost we can give our city is to let In n stream of pure mountain water by a gravity system. That should and mu3t be done within tho next eight months. A LITTLH MATHK LIKE KEEP ING PLEDGES. The movement started by Scott, Fulton, ot nl. at Portland to re-loa-o membors of tho legislature from their pledges Is not making much headway, although many sign ers are being secured, without re gard to their politics. "The move incut nwakens new Interest In lh political situation, and will precipi tate a hot fight over the speitrker shlp of the house nnd president of the sonnite. It Is now apparent thnt tho Statement N'o. 1 members, who nro In tho majority In both branches of the legislature will be able to or ganize both branches of tho legis lature. Tho presidency of the sen ate lies between Sonntor Kay of Marlon nnd Sonntor Soiling of Port land, both nntl-machlue men. Tire spcnkorehlp lies between Pntton, Jones and Campbell, or n Portland mnn If tho president ,of the en- ato goes to Kny. It Is n good sign of harmony between those who have any regard for public pledges that any one of them K willing to got out of the way for the other, pro forrlng principle shall prevail, nnd placing faith with the people above personal ndvnuatge. Thoso who advocate pledge breaking are losing ground morally every dny. After tho Fulton hnuquct Saturday night at Portland, ninny who nro opposed to Stntomont No. 1 .took tholr Btand with Dunlwny, snylng thoy believed It wns In tho true Intcrost of tho Republican party. What do men like Stephen A Lowell, Donjamln Franklin Jones, Henry 'E. McGinn, nntl Willis S. Dunlwny moan by ndvocotlng thnt Republicans keep tholr pledges .to the pcoplo? Don't thoy know thnt thoy aro llablo to bo clnssod ns 13ry nnltos nntl .traitors to tho Republi can party? Members of tho loglsla turo who took Statement No. 1 or Stntomont No. 2 should hasten to Join tho plodgo-bionkors' organiza tion nnd got Into Harvey Scott's An nnnlns Hand Wagon If thoy want hon ors nt tho hands of tho machine In future. Tho hlghost duty of a Ito publlcnn ropiosentntlvo Is to bronlc his party faith and decolvo tho pco plo undor all clrcumtancos, nccord Ing to tho rovlsed vorslon of Abra ham Lincoln, Lowell, Jones, Mc Ginn nnd Dunlwny should bo kicked out of the party, according to that angpl of purity, Chuuncey M, Dopow, who Is now the Idol of tho Oregon-Inn. How do alleg imI polltlclnns In Or-; ogon export to do biisluoss with tho people whon itlulr chlof assent and Mock In trndo will bo n rocord of vi olated plodgos? Tho pooplo do not trust thoni nny too woll now. How much los will thoy trip t thorn when they have further ofllclnlly gono up on rocord for n gonornl public do cept'on of tho pooplo? Why, ns n rule politicians will not oven trust ono nuothor unlois plodgos aro kept. In politics you never have anything but n mini's word for anything, nnd what will any mnn's word bo good for If his wrltton, publicly made, sworn 'to and subscribed pledgo is violated and trampled In tho dirt of repudlnt'on? Why It Is a propo sition thnt .a whlto mnn should bo nshamed to mako to a cannibal snv ago. If n man 'took Statement No. 1 lot him stay with it. If ho.took Stntomont No. 2, let -him stay with It.
