Local Water System Compared With Other Cities
FOREWORD
(I am presenting this article with
out any apologies. Let it first be
undertod as coming from the presl
dent of the oil company, we have no
well to sell. If the city wants it the
price Is $8000. or a well on another
location drilled to the same depth
with ten Inch diameter In bottom.
It the city does not want It drilling
will be resumed, probably late in
March. As a loyal citizen of Her­
miston I am Interested In a pure
water supply for our city. As re­
presenting 400 stockholders and
owners of land under lease to us we
are Indifferent. My hope Is that
through this Information the citizens
of Hermiston may be awakened to a
deeper investigation of the water
problems and possibilities confront­
ing them. Owing to lack of space
In The Herald, the most Important
part of the article will appear next
week.— E. P. Dodd.)
