use of the public nt tho filler plant
of tho Oregon City water works. The
iiiutnlu stands In a hollow square
near tho main building at the filter
hint, nnd Just off Mnln street but
nndy to pedestrians who are at hirst.
At the top of a handsome shaft Is an
electric tight globe, which will shine
forth In nil Us glory on dsrk nights
to guide weary, thirsty and fool-soro
pedestrians to a source from which
jno'a thirst may be quenched. Ar-
