We are sorry hp have anyone feel lluU W6 are in favor (if dirty water from any source for it is not the fact. Persons prefer or dislike water and foods and a lot of other things In life for. many and various reasons. ften the feelliiE. whether for or against, is based on pure prejudice Instinct or lack of any reason svluii- tstpr. Sometimes a like or a dislike an opinion is founded on the exercise of Judgment. That Is, one will as semble all the facts he can secure and weighing one fact against an other will decide that this or that is best. A good many opinions or decisions are compromises. One will prefer A over all things else under consideration for some particular quality, he will prefer B for another quality and C for still another quality. When he conies to make a choice, however, he may select I) because of its combination of qualities none of which Is equal to any individual quality of A, B or C. Now as to the water we favor. Thero are four possible sources for u city water supply, that Is. four pla ces where water exists that "could supply the city of Bend. Kali river. Spring river. Deschutes river and Tumalo creek. We have done our best to study these sources as possibilities, to reach an honest opinion concerning them, and to favor the one that for all rea sons combined seemed the best. Spring river is out of the question at once, we would say. because if and when the Bentiam falls reservoir is built It will be fio feet under water. Fall river is good, but the expense of bringing It in Is too great. If Fall river were the only water ir this country, it would be necessary to ; go to it for the city supply no matter what the cost was. It is not the only source, however, so one must begin bringing in other tacts for consideration. The Deschutes is contaminated. The contamination, however, can he ellmlnuted by filtration. The cost of filtration Is well under the cost of going to another source. Tumalo creek Is contaminated in its lower course. Farther up stream it Is safe (although health officials warn that it should be treated to In sure perfect safety at all times). Although safe farther up sir' am, Tumalo creek has a cloudy condition during the summer that makes it tin Batsifactory a condition that can be removed only at considerable ex pense. (See page 10, Dubuis and Koon report.! The south fork of (he Tumalo Is pure. Its water shed could be easily protected against contamination. The cost of going to thai stream, however. Is great. The big difficulty with It. however, Is the fact that It does not carry enough water lo sup ply the city of Bend. The water of Fall river or the south fork is better than that of the. Deschutes. There Is no doubt of I that fact. We favor either over the I Deschutes when we ure wanting a glass of water. But when it conies lo reaching an opinion as to a muni-j rlpal anpply for Bend a matter of! a good many million glasses a day ! we come to a different result. Because there Is not enough water in the south fork of the Tumalo, be cause the main stream of the Tumalo Is unsatisfactory in the summer and cannot be mude right without great oxpense, because going to either stream is costly, becuuse the cost of going lo Fall river Is very great, be I cause the Deschutes, though contain Inutcd. can he made safe by filtration at an expense much less than going' to another source we favor the Das- clnitcs. We suppose lliiil could be laid lo be "favoring the dirty DSBchutSS sva lor," but let's pill the whole state ment in form IhiiH -We favor the dirty Deschutes (Unit can he cleaned by filtration) over the costly Fall river, the cloudy and costly Tumalo anil the costly and insufficienl south fork. If Someone will prove Unit there is euougli water In the south fork then Unit reason fails us land it. ought to be proved before plans to THE GANGSTER Tin1 gtngater's lift) is busy the little time is runs; lu scorches in his Lizzie and shoots mon with his guns. Rut soon, an out-and-downer, ho finds eternal post, and then the helpful crovvner conies up am! holds his quest The gang ster. for no reason that any one can find, is fond of crime and treason and sin of every kind. When he's not wildly riding on errands rash anil vain, in some dark hole he's hiding-, like rodent in a drain. Oh, where is the attraction in such a life as this? How much of satisfaction does yonder gangster miss'.' What anguish lie must suffer, what bleak remorse ho knows, that men may cull him tougher than anything that grows. Ppr chat's the only guerdon that comforts his disgrace: ho boars his ghastly burden that men may fear his face. The gangster oft is gifted, his brain was clear ami bright, before he slid and drifted away from virtue white. He well might be a cutler, dispensing blade and tool, be honored as a butler, be paid for teaching school. Ho might be strewing shavings with honest saw dust blent, and salting down his savings, and drawing four per cent. But ho is nursing grudges against his fellow men. and will until the judges have sent him to the pen. Distempered and misguided, ho hates the wholesome crowd until he is provided with bargain counter shroud. RADIO ro there are made). Then the question comes down simply to whether Bend can afford, ought to afford, to go to the expense of leaving the Deschutes. Here is u chance for a difference of opinion. We think the city ought not to undertake the expense. We think there is no sign today of illness caused by the use of filtered Deschutes water. We know that on the irrigated lands of this vicinity and in the city of Redmond the peo ple can never have anything but Des chutes water and they are using it today unfiltered without any appar ent ill effects. We think that if Redmond and ttu irrigationlsts can do this. Rend would be unwise to spend over 6uO,000 to get something different. We do not like to have subscribers slop the paper, hut we will continue to express our best and our honest opinion so long as we have anything to say in the columns of The Hnlle-tin. COMMUNICATIONS To the Kditor: Six hundred thousand dollars for a water system for Bend! That i.s a lot of money for a city of less than 10,000 people to spend for a water system. During the World war the hundred or more million of people of this country got to thinking in terms of billions in raising money for war expenses. Since the war we are not quite so reckless in spending the publics money. Doesn't S 100.044 seem like too much money to spend for an old water plant and for put ting in a new one? Would any pri vate concern pay the price asked by the Bend Water. Light & Power company for its water plant? This is a matter of very great im portance to the people of this city. Should the city take over this old plant and build a new one at this time? Matters of this importance should be given plenty of lime for consideration. The city council met in star cham ber iviou Saturday. Jul l t i nol a regular meeting ) and called an election to be held 1 1 days later requesting the people to vote to spend $600,000. Why all this haste? Why not give at least Q days" notice for the election so that all the Issues could be properly discussed and the voters enabled to fairly determine what they want and vote intelligent ly on the question. Six hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money t spend on a water system. I a:n opposed to it for a lot of reasons, -tome of which are: The price asked by the Bend Wat er. Light & Power company for the old plant 4s too high. The cost of putting in water from Tumalo is too high. Bend owns none of the Tumalo water. If it should be able to ac quire ft. wh.it would it cost to buy it? The city council do?s not know that it can get the water nor what it would cost if it could get it. Our present water charge Is high, i We are supposed to pay the com pany on a basis of a fair return on the investment. The council's pro posal, if carried into effect, will con siderably more than double the in vestment, which means the water charge will be doubled at leant. Do we want to pay twice what we arc now paying 'or water? If the city takes over the water system it will be taken off the tax roll and the taxes will Ik- according ly increased, and taxes are now high enough. Wn all wt.it pure water, but the plan proposed does not insure It. II. H DK ARMOND.
