Water Works, it has been a bone of
contention, and until Mayor Van Ors

When the water works were first
constructed, Dallas voted $12,000 bonds

the money derived from the sale of the
bonds was turned over to him. - After

the city for $1 a year for 20 years. At
the end of that time, the city had the
right to purchase for any amount that
a board of arbitration might fix as its
value, deducting therefrom the pay
ment of 112.000. A schedule of water
rates was fixed by the city. With the
increase in population these rates have
become unreasonable, declare water
