A large number were In attendance last eve ning at the mass meeting which was culled by E. P. Dodd, president of the Hermiston Commercial club for the purpose of looking over the plans and specifications of the water system, which the people will vote on next Monday. Mr. Dodd opened the meeting and acted as chairman, G. H. Upthegrove, secretary of the Commercial club, acting as secretary. City Recorder Mc Ken.le was also present with the maps and drawings. A discussion took place among the pioperty owners In regard to the wa ter system, the main objection seemed to be the 15,000 feet of 2-inch pipe which the plans called for, and also the location of the lumping station, which the plans show Is to be In the center of the city, on the triangle piece of ground next the O.-W. It. & X. railroad tracts. Mr. W. H. Skin ner objected to this for the reason that It was so close to the business center and to the church that It would not be desirable on account of the noire and would not look well In the business district of the city. I City Engineer Walter Hinkle was called on several times to give his j opinion, as was ulso City Attorney Warner. ltohert Allen stated that he j was of the opinion that the city coun cil had "railroaded" the measures, as all three had been voted on at one time instead of each separate. The four measures are: The nonds for a water system, not to exceed $25,000, j for the construction of a water sys tem; the second being an amendment which would authorize the city coun- ell to Issue bunds not to exceed $4000 for the purchase of a city park and to condemn property for this purpose: the third being to limit the indebtedness to be incurred for the acquisition of any public utility, to gether with the existing bonded in debtedness to fifteen per centum of the assessed value of all leal and per sonal property in this city. Mr. Allen staled that the council had voted on a!l of these at ne vote T iv" ;!?!! uny. and therefore' he c.in- sideied that the water system had I ! i n l allrnaelcil. Mr. Iteiii stated that h- was at the council at the time of the voting and that tills was correct. Mr. Thomas t'ampho'! stated that if til u:v Hie he did not think tile j.roi i i dint!.-: Hotc I.itM and that it would be hard to dispose of the lv. nds u hereupon Mr. W. II. Skinner made the motion that the proposed charter amendment lie let p ' de fault and that another be drafted. The city attorney stated however that as this uas Jiow advertise. J it would ne cessarily have to come to a vot- of the peopfe. It is now the opinion of a great many that the entire amendment will be voted down en next Monday and that another plan will be voted on in th" near future. M. W.
