S BANK LONDON NORRIS OUTWITS HOWARD ffi DEMOCRATS IN SQUARE DEAL REPEAL FIGhT Aided Rullnn of Vice-President, Ne-; Father of Medford Appeals to Ceun hraskan Has Forced to Point of j ell In Behalf of Fair Water Rates Vantage Resolution Reaffirming Sovereignty and Rights of United States Over Canal Zone. WASHINGTON, June 0.

Democratic leaders, after- canvass ing the situation, aro said (o have found that the Norris resolution, now in a strategic position, where it com mando a voto before the repeal bill Itself, or other resolutions pertaining to it, has enough votes in its support to make It a dangerous quantity to their program. Confronted with such a situation, republican supporters of tho Xorrls resolution say tho democrats are preparing to offer a resolution of I their own, substantially the same, and that Mr. Norris has practically agreed to accept It. GENERAL PEACE PLANS DISCUSSED BY MEDIATORS NIAGARA FALL!?, Ont., June fl. For Hie first time in four days the American delegates conferred today with the hoard of mediator-.-. The general pence plan wu- under discus, .-ion, as it had been decided us much progress as possible should bo made while word was beitis n waited from General Carrunzn on tho subject of eou-iitutionuli-t representation. Af ter the conference Ju-tice Lamar said: ''The ilisous-ion todav was on the same points which we had before us last Tuc.-day and before the Carrunzn incident arose." Tho justice ndded that there was siib-taulinl ngreement on the points disou-sed today. He said he had no word from Washington about the at titude of the cou.-titutiounlists. It wus generally understood some phase of the land question and method of treatment in thu protocol were considered today.

I lie wuler xupply In cillzcim of that, beautiful mibtirh mhI of our city ha been the subject of (Hunted criticisms and I Hunk both hides hnvo failed In observe the old maxim, "Let ii rea son together." I think the present council is about the best all-round Hint we hnvc ever had. They are sjendin most of their time in n thorough investiga tion of all matters pcrtainim; to tho city; slopping leaks and making a record for an economical ndminis trntion, and have been tryinjr to reg ulate the water system lo do equal justice lo all. For instance, when the north nml cast parts of the city were nil irrigating nt once, the peo ple in the south nml west parts ot the city had n Inck of pressure, and therefore unable to get their share of the water, not because there wn any lack of water supply, but be cause ono waler main from tho ers ervoir would not supply fast enough, so when tho reservoir wus full nml overflowing the parties farthest away could not get their supply. So the council made n very sensible regulation, that part of "the people should use the water one dny and the other on tho nlternntc day, which gave n plentiful supply to nil. Council Acted Hastily Tn the meantime the citizens east of the coqiornto limits had been al lowed to tap the main pipe and use water without much system. Some wero charged a nominal sum for a large nmount, and others charged the full limit. So tho city council has promulgated regulnlioiis nnd es tablished prices regiilatimr tho same. We think they have acted hastily without due consideration of Iho sub ject. The price of 'J.'i cents per 1000 gnllons is certninlv prohibitive. Wh when we had to pump tho water we only paid S cents per 1000 gallons. Now the price of 'J.'i cents jwr 1000 gallons, in addition to tho cost of tlio meters, will .-imply put those peoplo out of business. If the council would confine each individual holding to u three-quarter inch tnp nml make a flat rate cor responding to the ralo in the city, I think it would be mo.-t just, for rec ollect we hove 300 feet inoro pres sure than those on the eights, and therefore a three-quarter inch pino hero would deliver about twice the amount Hint those ou tho Heights would get, so in that wav they would be paying twice ns much for water than we, incousidernto of the largo nmount of wnter wasting over tho (Continued on pago two.)
