SjT. Johns Wants Lower Water Rates.
St. Johns citizens want lower water
rates and will voice their demands to
night at a general meeting to be held
at , the old City Hall. The annexa
tion campaign was fought out largely
on the claim that with consolidation to
Portland the people of St. Johns would
receive the same rates paid for water
in Portland, but they are Btill paying
the same rates to the St. Johns Wa
ter Company. Commissioner Ialy has
made some inquiry as to the price the
owners of that plant want for their
property, but It seems that no prog
ress is being made toward acquiring
the plant. The old town of St. Johns
offered fl30.000 for the property, but
the company valued their property
higher. The people want Portland to
either acquire the plant or install Bull
Kurt water. .
