These estimates were l.ai, ,1 upon a lb inch pipe, whi.h was ealeulated would furnish a sufficient supply of water for all purposes for a population of lti.nim people At this election in April the people voted for the bonding of the city for the three hundred thousaud dollars, and at the same time voted almost unanimously for the purchase of the present water plant belonging to the Willamette Valley Company at the price of fUiloiin in order to carry out the wishes of the people the council has eut'ered into contract with the present owners of the present plant and has agreed to purchase the plant for the said sum. And the onlv reason not already taken over and paid far is because of a minor defect in the bond proceedings, which is now before the Court. The purchase price, $14ii,ouo, taken from the amount of bonds authorized would leave to the Council with which to carry out the original plan for a gravity system, the sum of $160,000, were no repairs or extensions needed to put the present plant in proper shape to serve the needs oi me people, it is conservatively estimated that from twenty to forty thousand dollars will be required for the Immediate repair and ex tension of the present plant. Deducting say, twenty thousand dollars from the available amount left after the puichase of the present plant for its repair and extension and the Council is left with but one hun dred and forty thousand dollars with which to construct a gravity pipe line. Since the election, by which the Council was authorized to issue $300,000 of bonds for water purposes, and directing the purchase of the present plant at $140,000, the Council has gone forward in its ef fort to determine upon a sou"1 of supply of pure mountain water and to determine the exact cost, as near as can be estimated, of bringing the .same to the City. In so doing the Council believes it has acted in accordance with the wishes of a large majority of the people to havu a supply of pure water from some mountain stream and by means ot gravity. To properly determine the feasibility of this plan it was necessary to employ competent engineers to make permanent surveys, take ac curate measurements of the flow of contemplated streams, etc. For this purpose Prank C. Kelsey was employed as consulting engineer and McClain and McArthur as local engineers. After much consideration the Council has fully alopted the Kitchie Creek as the best and most available source of supply under all the circumstances, and the survey. plans and specifications, and measurements have been made in refer ence to this stream, and other smaller streams immediately below. Mr. Kelsey litis personally superintended the work and has been careful and painstaking in his effort to reach the actual 'cost of con struction of the contemplated pipe line, and while he has not finished his full detaikd estimates, he has for the purpose of this argument, furnished the Council with the following report: Portland, Oregon. August 27, 190S. The Hon. Mayor and City Council, Eugene, Oregon. Gentlemen: Herewith is an estimate of the cost of constructing the proposed water works pipe line from Kitchie Creek to lOugene, based on the survey of 'he line recently made by Messrs. McClain and McArthur. The length of the line as surveyed from the point of diversion on Ritchie io Willamette Street in Eugene is U'4,071 feet, or 23.5 miles. Seme slight changes now being made in the location of the line will probably reduce the distance three or four hundred feet. The estimated cr.s; t f the pipe line is as follows: KSTIM lTi:i ('Of T OF COXSTHl t TIXU TIIK HITCIIIK CKKKK I'll'H MXK.

If the e it v is unable t , , 't permission to cross on one of the bridges at that point, th" additional cost for the Willamette river crossing will be about $10.000.0.

W. Taylor, superintendent in charge ol the plant, show;, that an average of 1.22n,10;1 gallons per day liae been pumped into the stem. d'he greatest amount pumped during any one day be ing 1 . tv.i.Omi gallons and the .smallest amount situ. nop gallons. The estimated cosi of the completed gravity svsteui. including the pri, e paid for the present plant and the amount iieeessai-y lor its bet- J tcrnunt. is the sum of $4 17,4 70. eo. Annual interest on this amount at! Tile greatest rate admitted under the ell. ti ter, a p. r cent, would amount to JJO.1. 7;t..",o. The pipe line under eonstderat ion will, when ciupletod. deliver four millions of gallons of wat.r per day. The com ot operai ing a gravity system amounts to pr.ie! ieally the .saute whether it on veys one million gallons per day or four millions, and is contiueil prin cipally to the collection of I lie lev, lines The general rule for figuring tile revenues of su, h a system i on j the basis of three dollars tor e.., ii inhnbiiant per , ar. l-:ug, ne now J has a population of at,.,. it eight !

In gravity and pumping syswms the storage reservoirs and dis tribution mains and pipes in the city are the same. A choice between the systems involves Hie following question: Is it. safer, more satisfac tory and more economical to keep up pumps and filters and make the large annual expenditure for power, engineering services, and depre ciation of machinery, necessary to raise and purify the water for ten thousaud people, and maintain a pressure sufficient for fire protec tion; or shall the people by the much larger initial expenditure adopt the gravity system and take the pure tnountuin water trom tlui natur al streams at an elevation sufficient to force the water into the reser voirs and use the revenues, not for pumping nnd purification, but with which to pay the Interest on the bonds? Almost every member of the Council has made a personal in vestigation of the source of supply, some of them many trips during the present season: the measurements of the streams have been made constantly throughout the present Bummer with a view of accurately djterminlnE the minimum flow, and the Council is fully convinced that tho flow of water is sufficient to meet all demands of the City for many years to come, or at least until Eugene reaches u population or twenty thousand. Tho amendment to Section 109, submitted, is for tho reason that advertising for the sale of bonds is expensive, and not always brings satisfactory results. Under tho present luw If no satisfactory bid is received and tho bids rejected, the Council must ro-ndvurtlse before any bonds can he sold. Under the amendment asked, It no satisfactory bid be received, and tho bids be rejected, the Council can then receive bids for and sell the advertised bonds in the open market at not lorn thmi par. The interest of the City is carefully protected by this amendment and at the same time greater facility given to tho sale of the bonds. In conclusion, the Council wishes to say that Is has carefully con sidered every possible feature of the gravity and pumping system. l,,,ih nrecenl mi, I future, and feel free to sav to the voters that If they still desire the gravity system, that it can he constructed along the plan tit rein outlined nnd successfully maintained, so as to furnish a most ex cellent miiuilv of nure. cold nnd wholesome water to inn citizens ioi iiiiniv vears to come, and in adopting tho Kitchie Creek as a source of supply tho Council has acted, not nlone upon their individual examina tion but upon the best knowledge obtainable from all sources and af ter full, fair and careful study.
