Water Works Not for Rent Los Angeles Express: Let it be written largely so that none may mistake—the people of Los Angeles will not consent to any plan which will remove the water system from their immediate control. Municipal ownership of waterworks has proved an unqualified success in Los Angeles. The people will not now, nor at any time in the future, sell, lease or otherwise relinquish control of the source and distribution of water in this city. The young attorney who yesterday on behalf of unknown clients, requested that the council submit to the people certain charter amendments that will make possible the lease or sale of the waterworks, merely is wasting his time and breath. The proposition was promptly shelved by the council, as it deserved to be. The people will not "stand" for such a scheme. If the proposal were submitted to the people it would be buried beneath an avalanche of votes. What there is behind the scheme no one seems to know. It may be that it is a mere idle dream, or it may be that some person or persons—name or names unknown—see an opportunity to wax rich at the expense of the municipality, and, relying upon the indifference or foolishness of the people, really entertain a hope that they can secure control of the water system. If this latter hypothesis be correct, the unknown individuals are doomed to bitter disappointment. The people are not so foolish as they may appear to be to the young attorney and his unnamed backers. They know that if private individuals make money out of the waterworks it must be made at the expense of the people, who now own the system. The experience of Philadelphia with secure control of the water system. If this latter hypothesis be correct, the unknown individuals are doomed to bitter disappointment. The people are not so foolish as they may appear to be to the young attorney and his unnamed backers. They know that if private individuals make money out of the waterworks it must be made at the expense of the people, who now own the system. The experience of Philadelphia with the grafters who attempted to lease the municipal gas plant is too recent and too fresh in the memory of the people for them to entertain for one moment a proposition to lease the water system of Los Angeles to any man or set of men on any terms. The Los Angeles water system is run by the people for the people, and it ever must be so. The municipal water plant is not for sale, neither will it be rented. THE Gardner Pipe Works F.

A Punishment Still In Vogue In Many English Prisons. The treadwheel is still in vogue at many English prisons. Within the walls is a little building, built of blue gray stone, standing somewhat apart from the main structure in a corner of the exercise ground and prison garden. On the chocolate colored door are painted in white letters the two words, "Wheel House." As the door opens the dull, grinding sound that we heard outside grows a little louder and clearer. The door closes behind us with the inevitable clash and click of the returning bolt. The house is an apartment some thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide. On the left hand side are the wheels, four of them, in two tiers, divided by a gallery running the whole length of the house and communicating with the floor by a staircase at the opposite end. On the right hand side there is another lower and shorter gallery, on which stands the warder in charge. The wheels are separated by a section of brick wall. Each wheel is divided into compartments, cutting off each prisoner from the others. The object of this is to prevent the prisoners from seeing and hearing one another, although conversation in a low voice pitched in a different key from that of "the music of the wheel" is perfectly easy and intelligible.
