J J -. J in loas mi, w. u. nuntor was ap proached and asked to buy th Falk springs now in controversy at the price of $1,400.00 by a gentleman who said he thni held an option on them at that price. Whdgets the other $1,600.00 if 'they can 1e sold to the city at the present prka of $3,000.00? Perhaps Mr. Oilman can U 1 us. Then after the Falk springs are pur chased what will we have to pay to get the several springs on the Schilling land? I am told that the price of th Schilling place is $6Qq0.opi (ft this is so w would not have much : oney left for th piping of th water to. th rsrvoir, , . . i Then perhaps Mr. Oilman can tell us What h riM.Tnam mniilH say if w should decide to absorb all, this water supply. I remember that only few yerg6'thy fought and wbrr this vary sam water supply and they would not be likely to sit idly by and see us of th Nw Town ' absorb - all thsir water supply without a protest, in fact 1 know they would object very strongly and they would be orbtected In their rights.
