(Itedroond Hub.)
The Itedmond Cltv Council Is nnv
confronted with a now 'condition In
the problem of securing water for tho
town. The townslte comnanr has
tackod a new condition onto their
agreement to let the city have w&tur
under tho former's contract with too
Irrigation company. That condition
Is that all tho land within tho city
limits must secure water rlshta from
tho company before any contract be
tween tho Townalta Co. and the city
can be ontered Into, And further
that tho townalta eomnnuv ran rrant
tho city a water right only until tho
yoar 19X7, when Ita contract with
tho Irrigation company ends.
These are tho. principal facta with
which City Attorney Wilcox was
confronted when ho mot tho officials
ot the townslte company In Port
land last week. The Conditions
were reduced to wrltlnr and suiw
ed mooting held immediately upon
his return from Portland. Ba un.

poar to tho council that, City, Engl-

estimate of the cost of constructing
a numnlliK nlaut at tho rfver and

city's present means. Doth engi

for tho entire nlant. Under tho
chartor, tho city's total Indebtedness
Is limited to $35,000 and as the city
la already "in tho hole" something
like $3,000 an additional $31,000
WOUld not bo' local. Thn ni-AHftnt
