THE WATER QUESTION - Assuming that the question to be sub mitted to the voters, at the city election March 1 2th., with' reference to the pur chase of ths springs, up Mill canyon, will be thoroughly considered and discussed, the Observer will suggest that the water committee of the council investigate and nake an official statement at to the amount of water the city it using. We believe we are tafe in making the assart.oryfhat there it no one who knowt how much water it now required to sup ply this city. It is an easy matter how ever, have the city engineer measure the city reservoir, then fill it. stop the pumps for 24 or 48 hours and measure the water used, within the given period. The whole question will then be solved. The council now knows the flow of the springs during the last year, the dryest within a period of twenty years. Now let the required city supply be known and the result will form a basis for intelligent consideration. The quality of the water of the springs cannot be questioned. The cost is nominal. The only question it the sufficiency of the supply and that is cer tainly a matter easily ascertained. Its the long pull, the strong pull and the pull all together that brings things par ticularly the pull all together. You can neither help your friends nor punish your enemies in the primary eleC' tion unless you register. Heavy snows throughout the mountain ranges are reported from all sections of Eastern Oregon. These great natural reservoirs will do their part towards the tuccess of bounteous crops for 1 906. An effort it to be made to have the county clerk open a registration office down town. In order to secure a larger registration if possible. If this can be arranged it will make it much more cc venient for the voters in the five La Grande precinctt. Proof it again offered that there lit.le in a name. The name of the new president of the Frence republic sounds like failure (Falliers), but he hat known nothing but tuccest tinea hit birth in blacksmith's cottage among the humblest and poorest of his countrymen. With proper reverence to piintert ink, big posters and enticing pictures at potent agenciea in developing their country, it would seem thai the people, who live in and plan to continue thair residence in the Walla Walla valley have concluded to place greater reliance than heretofore in substantial road making. This newly aroused force is manifest from the fol lowing telegram which says: "When the county commissioners con vene in February they will probably be called upon to act on several petitions for assistance in the building of macadamized roads near Walla Walla. Comm'ssioner NcCaw said today there would be at least Gva such petitions. Among them will be one from the retidants along the road to Milton and Freewater, who, it it said, will make a proposition to build a macadam road from a certain point to the state line, providing the county of Walla Walla will build on into this city. .This would be a great convenience to the peti tioners and benefit Walla' Walla. . !"' rnr r mill rlllHt I UK jniuiii Boston. Mass., Jan. 26. Seventy-five students of Harvard University, members of the Circle Francait de l'Universite Harvard will attend the performance of Phedre" at the Boston Theatre this eve ning.
