J. F. Ketchem of Sell wood, said be

' to the water board have returned In
aa agitated state of mind such as Is
not evea provoked by a visit to the

any satisfaction from the board and
there seems to be none who can tell
us the real difficulty."
It seems to be the opinion among
leading east alders that the
' board, the fire department and coun
cil are all working with different ob
jects ahead of them. Neither seems
to know what the other Is doing and
sldered Improbable, In view of the senti
ment expressed yesterday, that the

The ways and means committee naa,
already made a thorough examination
of the project with the assistance of
the members of the east side business

feasibility of the project for more than
