The completion of this line, which
cost the city 150,000.00, Insures us
plenty of water for domestic and manu
facturing purposes for years to come.
Our six Inch line Is able to deliver
plenty of water for domestic use, but
could not supply water to meet the
growing demand for manufacturing
purposes, as the big mill alone requires ,
tOO.OOO gallons of water daily. With
ithe two lines in operation however, we
are ln a position to supply water to
jail comers, having plenly cf water to
