Tho meeting was productive of much good, as facts were brought out by tho different speakers that have never been given to the public before. Govern! of tho spnkors showed how the council had been misrepresented In all matters per taining to the establishment of a municipal water system for several years past and facts iind flguros wore produced to show what tho members of the council Individually and the council as a body had done every thing In their power to promote the bett welfare of the cltiir.ens In work- !
