Yi.C3:.Do;i close !HUk.sDAY.- SXJLY 21, ises.. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM COUNTY, OREGON. THE WATER WORKS. A peculiar condition appears to fXiBt in Condon, at the . present time, in regard to the proposition of putting in water works and furnish ing some sort of adequate fire pro U'ction for the town. The writer has taken some trouble lately in interviewing representa tive citizens as to their views on the matter, and has found the oninion to be universal that the town should have some protection against fire. Since the , recent de structive fire at Antelope the ex pression that "Condon will go the name- way some of these days" has been, most common, and can be Heard! a often as any one wishes Wh broach the subject. The prom inent issue of the late city cam paign was, if we understood it a lighS, the water works proposition, and there seems to be ho division ia thoity council, at this time, to far as the straight proposition that "the town should by all means lave fire protection" is concerned. Thv trouble with the council seems to be in regard to the best method to be pursued to accomplish the much desired end. and so long as they continue to be thus divided m regard to details it is likely that the same amount of progress will be made as has been made in the pavf, and Condon's water works will continue to be in the dimly. distant future. This difference of opinion is by no means confined to members ot tbe council, but is shared in by private citizens to such an extent that, while everv body wants water works, or some other means of protecting their property against fire, it is possible that if the council were to agree on any particular method of furnish ing such protection and submit the Fame to a vote ef the people, a sufficient amount of opposition would be developed to defeat the measure. The latest phase of the nseiiesn to present itself is an inquiry from private individual, whose business is the construction and main ta.i nance of water works systems, and the sale of water to municipalities and individuals, in regard to putting in a private system of water works, but wfceih.ee this will ultimately a amount to any more than the local agitation has done, remains to be eew. The Globe is not disposed to criticise or find fault with either the council or the citizens on this matter. We recognize the fact that every man has the same right to his opinion about water works that he has to bis opinion about the tariff, the money question, or the annexation of the Philippine islands; but it does seem too bad that in a little town like Condon with not to exceed 50 voters, we cannot agree long enough to swore a public service that everybody wants, when tbe entire nation, with 15,000.000 votes, can manage to agree in every'1' campaign on certain distinct propositions that only about one-half the people are in favor of. The writer does not claim to know much about water works, so for as the details of their construc tion is concerned. We do not know whether the water supply can best be drawn from the Main street spring or from wells to be sunk near the school house. Neither do we know whether gasoline, steam, wind or cayuses would furnish the most satisfactory and economical power. We do know, however, that in case of a fire starting and getting under good headway, a supply of water and an 'adequate fire apparatus would be mighty handy things to have in town and would probably be the means of caving thousands of dollars worth of property. We all have our own ideas abont bow the work can best be dune, bat, as a matter of fact, there is perhaps not a man in town who is absolutely certain that his plan would stand the test of an actual demonstration much less the plan of any of his neighbors and, such being the case, the Globe begs leave to make the following sug gestion: Let tbe city council se cure the service of some competent civil engineer, or other person, who is thoroughly posted in regard to water works, bring him here, re quire him to look over the situation and examine into tbe conditions thoroughly, and then, in a report to thecouncil, recommend the most practical plan by which the town can be supplied with water, with an estimate of the. cost of the pro posed plant. eubmi( the matter to the people to be voted on and let I them either accept or reject it. This plan would cost the city a few dollars, but it would be money well exuended. We would have the benefit of "the experience of other towns, as well an the knowl edge of a man who bad made a study of such work, and it would be infinitely easier for us to agree to the recommendations of a man whom we believed understood his business than it is to cotneide with the views of some neighbor who, we perhaps think, knows lens about water works than we do ourselves. Here in what a nstive Hawaiian paper said about the Oregon troops during thoir recent sojourn at JJon- olnlur ' "No Orceona, he 1000 poe oolea, a mailoko ae o keir fhuina, he 200 aia maluna w ka Ausetere lia, a o ke koena maluna o ke Ku lanakauhale a Sidane." Such remarks are really scanda lous. It's a wonder the Oregon boys didn't 'pi' that editor's form, 'slug' the 'devil' at the butt of the ear with one of thoir 'shooting sticks' and smash the office towel into smithereens on the ink table. Perhaps all that saved the shop was the coarse work of the proof reader, which rendered the item almost unintelligible. It's no wonder the Spaniards are in a baa wav.
