Could get Water Frorrj Wells . I ' EDITOR'S NOTE: ; (The following is an article contributed by B. ; W. Macy, .'at torney at law, of Salem, who dis cusses the water question with recommendation of wells? ' as a source of supply. ; r Qn the front page of the Hol lywood Press' of the Issue ot Sep tember - 25,: under the heading. "Wells .as a Source of Supply are Proven unsatisfactory"; is; an article on municipal water sys tems, which is so full of misin formation that onn can mot heln but wonder where thS author got his f dope", : provided! he obtained it from any source! other, than from his . - own 'imagination. Among many erroneous ; i state ments found in that article is the following: " : .1 "There are plenty of cities In the s country which started with wells and which later saw their mistake and switched to gravity systems. Spokane is one city, if or instance, which has ; Some ot j its first wells still In use; as adjuncts to its main system,! but when ad ditions are necessary, Spokane does not dig more wells. On the contrary. Spokane Is right now spending millions for additions to its gravity, system, after having tried the well system and found it Inadequate, undependable, and unduly ex'jTtensive to j operated in comparison with gravity sys tem." Having spent twelve ) of the best years of my life In Spokane, being . there when three of the wells were dug, I feel Qualified tb speak ont the nerlts of Spo kane's water, and I know I can (and will terj the truth about it. I . .... . - . M . Any; one woo aas uveu u djiu kane within the past 25 years, will concur In my statement that Spokane has better water ; than any . other large city bn the Pa cific coast; and every drop comes from "unsatisfactory, undefend able" wells. I - i f : Favors Municipal System , As I favoria municipally owed water system, and knowing What wonderfully fine water ; isf; fur nished by Spokane's municipally owned plant at very i reasonable rates, I recently wrote to j Mayor Leonard Funk of " Spokane for data on its water system. Under date of August 24, 1 received from Alex i Lindsay, IsupeHniteii dent of water, a complete history of the 'Spokane water sysif m. with pictures, of thai plant, pumps, rci'prtnir and a table of rates charged by the city owned; plnt. Since 1907. every drop- or wa ter furnished In ! spoaane nas come from wens, u spone n not now, and never has had a gravity system, aid Is j not spend ing any money on, one. In the face of this exnression of the truth. Just read and consider the j above quoted article j from the Press. The Spokane water sys tem was initiated in 1883 by a nrivate coSlpany. ; In 11884. the city issued bonds" and i purchased the plant. ! Since ;tnat time, an extensions, , improvements ' and betterments have beenj paid for out of revenues from the, system, including thet original bond issue with interest! and several subse quent bond Issues with interest, wheh were Issued to pay for Sex tensions and betterments. It can h trnthfullv said I that the Spo kane water system, has never cost the taxpayers of the city a eenu History of Well Told ; Up to the year 1907,1 all wter was pumped irom m apuanuc river. In ; that year tne j ursi well 28 feet In diameter was dug. A test of this well showed that pumping from it at the rate of 58 million gallons: per i day low ered the water level Iii th. Well only 44 Inches. In t910 two more wells, each 30 feot in piam- eter, were tdug. In lszsr two mom wells, each 4 5 leet in aiam- tr. vr dnr. These! wells ra only five miles from Howard nd Riverside, the heart of the city. The present Installed I pumping capacity of the Spokahe-, system Is 154 million gallons! . per day. The wells have a probable addi tional capacity of 75 or 80 mil lion gallons per day. In 1931, the maximum pumped In any one day' of 24 hours was 83 million gallons. , ; - I' ? The depth of tne weiis is noi elveh." but it is 85 feet down; to the 1 water level. The f wells are dugj down to an- ancient river bed DR. B. H. i WHITE Ar OSTEOPATHIC : I 'A PHYSICIAN AND -.;, ,'.

Max Gehl bar In his big ten gallon hat is the governor for the week. The fair got off to a good tart, both as far a weather la concerned, and as far as attend ance. - Early predictions were that the opening day would ex ceed previous opening days. Not only are there thousands of people present, but the are all over, at the rodeo. In the exhibit buildings and mt Mon key Island continuously. j Well, the parade went, as was predicted, with several - of the more prominent missing but en ough pretty girls were found to take their places, and it was t good thing some of the news- hounds overtrained. One of the queens mentioned- thrived on training, as she was seen' leading the riders. Nice work, Virginia Best. And the Seaside girls band. The members not only sound ed good, but looked good. Hun dreds who lined the street dur ing the parade saw several fine looking young women in the or ganization who could, easily compete with the pretty local horsewomen for queen of the fair. Better stay longer than today, girls. Music along with rodeo stunts and free fireworks, and the Four H club day, will feature Sunday at the fair grounds. The fireworks will be shown in the evening. If present weather Indications pre vail for the week, the 1831 fair will set a good precedent. Horse races and the horse shows will feature next week. . Eleven of the 12 counties of large gravel and boulders. The flow is inexhaustible, and the temperature' remains constantly at 48 degrees Farenheit. The water is , soft'',,; and is unex celled for domestic use. Their slogan is, "Spokane's water ia pure, not purified'. The domesU tic rates- for water in Spokane are both Interesting and illumi nating: The minimum is 50 cents per month for 625 cubic feet, and eight cents for each ad ditional 100. cubic feet, or .major fraction thereof. Less than one third the rate In Salem. Salem has at her door, a sup ply of good water as pure and as abundant as Spokane's. It was my purpose tb discuss this source ot supply in this article, but space will not permit. The mis leading article in theTress lm pelled me to devote more time to the Spokane system than I had intended. Next Sunday, I , will discuss Salem's available sources of supply, including the much touted Little North Fork of the Santiam river. - . B. W. MACY.
