Mr.'Haycs Temnrksand the Wet-
ilng was unanimous In the Itollfr
that Iho city's water system had
reached a point where some action
: was necessary If the people were to
continue to have (he use of water
from that source, instead of having
sooner or later lo r-sort tb the an

ply. Mr. Went lie rsponn poi;o at
length on the subject and brought
it forcibly home to t hose present
;of t ho danger that lies in the prob
ability ol the present system being
put out of root mission entirely
through the Insecure condition of
Ihe pipe line now crossing the riv
er. In which event the cost of re
pairs would reach a considerable
isum and the clly utlll be left with
tin inadequate supply of water.

a system that v. out. I meet all re-
qtilrements tf the city for many
