ASHLAND DAILY TIDINGS
OLD NORMAL SCHOOL GRADUATES TO BE WELCOMED
I The Old Normal School Building
The Lithia Franchise
The Daily Tidings after a study of the proposed
franchise granting the use of the Lithia water in the
city’s springs to private interests for commercial
bottling and distribution, sees no particular objection
to this plan.
In fact, this should prove very beneficial to the
city, as it will provide besides ft financial income, a
wider distribution of this famous medicinal water,
which means that thousands of additional users will
be influenced to visit the source o f this water.
However, there is one point which should be
strongly entrenched in the franchise—so firmly writ­
ten as to be so plain that there will be no question
of its clearness and extent of its application if the oc­
casion for its use arises.
This point is to make certain that the city can
at any time use ALL of the Lithia water it may
need for sanitarium, drinking fountain and other
purposes it may deem necessary or future events
may make advisable.
Ashland’s greatest asset today is its Lithia
water—which is being only partly capitalized—and
it is practical certainty that in the future a large
tutuita rinm will be constructed here which will bring
thousands to the Lithia water health fount. With­
out any intention ot disparaging the present pro­
posed plan nor to question in any way the sincerity
of the men proposing to finance this enterprise—
which we believe to be a puhlio-spirited movement—
nor to throw any doubt as to the dearness of the con­
tract—for frankly we would aot attempt to pass up­
on that phase—we agree with the eouncilmen that it
is a question which should he carefully considered
before any franchise is granted. These points have
probably already been taken care o f at the franchise
contract, for we know Messrs. Butler and Perozzi
want the cWy to Have tW ' fult protection, but The
Tidings considers it .of sufficient importance to em­
phasise It and call the need to the attention of those
who aro handling the situation.
