Gregory has recently declared anew that - he favors mountain water.- He is known to j be advised by certain of his con stituents to leave the question of purchasing the plant of the Oregon-Washington Water Service company here alone. These con stituents declare the city should issue bonds for a mountain water system, start construction of the pipe line and then negotiate with the present water company. If the company did not make a price deemed reasonable, the city should construct its own system and let the present company go on doing a competitive system.
