PXfJE E TO TIT
CITY 10 BUILD
NEW RESERVOIR
IN EARLY FALL
Council Decides to Construct
Reserve Reservoir in Sep
tember Or October Lid Is
Clamped Down Hard On
1 Water Law Violators.
The lid was clamped squarely
down by the city council on the per
mitting of further violating of the
water regulations last night, every
councilman 'and the muyor ordering
that arrests be made from now on
of all water violators. The
council is back of this promulgation
to a man, and the orders are to ar
rest, and rearrest as often as neces-
nary all offenders. The council, ev
jery member of whom, .Messrs. Lums
den, Keene, Gaddls, Antle, Miles and
Dress'er were present, and Mayor
Gates, are determined to break up
the water stealing and give nil water
consumers In every part of the city
as Bquare a deal as possible.
To this end a change In the water
ing hours mude. which It Is
thought will give tho poople of the
WeBt side,-especially In the south
Iwest portion, more water.
Hereafter water users In the Bec
t'on of the city east of the railroad
trucks on their regular wator days
can only water from 4 n. m. to 11 a.
ni., and Instead of staring In again
at 4 p. m. and watering until lip.
m., must not begin until 7 p. m. and
then can water until 1 1 p. m. Thus
three hours of watering Is cut off
from the east side wator UBers, be
cause they have a belter water pres
sure than on the west side, and the
change will work no hardship what
ever on them, the council figures.
This three hours cut oft from the
eust side, will give all parts of the
west Bide a much needed pressure.
The water hours on the west side
of the railroad tracks nro Just tho
same on their water days as hereto
fore, except that west of Oakdule
avenue, and south of West 12th
street, the water users who because
of their extreme low pressure have
boon' allowd to water every day at
any time, must water during the
hours assigned to the remulndor of
the West side.

shirtsleevcd counciltnen began to dis
cuss the water question and the steal
'.rig of water, the temperature grew
warmer as Mayor Gates and the
councilmen, one by one, related the
evils ot water stealing. Many dark
and dastardly deeds of this kind were
related, and Instances told of where
a number of water users have ha
bitually used water as they pleased
regardless of hours and required
hose nozzle, actually defying the city.
The council means business at last
In this enforcing of water regulations,
and is unitedly back of those charged
with the enforcement. The owners
of commercial gardens with their
lines of sprays must walk chalk from
now on, and will he closely watched
by other water users. It developed
after the council meeting lust night
that one of the largest commercial
gardeners of tho city, after the coun
cil recently curtained use of water
by commercial gardens, had been go
ing ahead using water as usual, with
permission, It is said, from a coun
cilman. No councilman has author
ity to grant any one permission 'to
violate any ordinance of the city, the
rest of the councilmen say, and they
won't permit this man to violate any
longer. "Treat every water consumer
alike," Is now tho slogan of the city
government.
Jluild Second Reservoir
Councilman Lumsden voiced the
sentiments of the council and mayor
when In the beginning of laBt night's
discussion he earnestly declared that
Medford has plenty of water for all
consumers. If steullng of water were
only stopped. While the city fath
ers were still heated up on the water
question they said It was futile for
v.nter consumers to expect to get suf
ficient water In their homos for the
bath tub, etc., while at the same time
they had one or two hose nozzles
playing on - their lawns. If they
would shut off tho Irrigating on
their lawns, plenty of water In most
cases would pour Into the house.
Councilman Antle brought up tho
question of the city starting work as
soon as possible In building an addi
tional or reserve reservoir, and the
mayor and every councilman was
heartily In favor of doing this In the
fall. Plans prepared by Olen Arn
splger, former city water superin
tendent, and Fred CummlngB, the
district water commissioner, many
months ago for the building of such
a reservoir, estimated that the ex
pense would be fiom $20,000 to $23,
000. The city council will look up
these plans and confer with Messrs.
Arnsplgcr und CummlngB at tho next
council meeting, and propare to start
the work of construction September
1st or October 1st, next. Tho money
for such building will be tuken from
the city water fund.
TAX ON SMOKERS
"What la It you hnvo on your
mind, Bcn?M BWoetly inquired Chas.
E. Gates, present mayor of Mod ford,
to B. F. Lindas, who wants to be the
future, mayor of Medford, an the city
council went Into Hetmton lust night.
Then the future mayorallty ami
rant, who filed aw a candldute re
cently, started In and made a plea as
attorney for the Medford Athletic
club that tho council throw off or re
duce the $30 ItceiiHO fee charged for
all fimio exhibitions when tho club
plves Its woekly amateur bouts every
Friday night.
Tho council uKrocd to cut tho fee
to ?1B, on tho stipulation that those
woekly exhibitions bo, confined
strictly to amateur bouts, approved

that any tlmo a professional bout Is

Jewell V nuts IPeaco
A strong willingness. to grnsp the
olive branch of pence was expressed
today by 11. M. Jewell, president of
the railway employes' department of
the American Federation of Labor.
A statement Issued by Mr. Jewell
referred ,tp a letter acnt him yester
duv by Bun W. Hooper, chairman of
tho United States railroad labor
board In which Mr. Hooper said the
"board has been protecting the In
terests of the striking shopmen."
"Though the letter Itself has not
reached me," said Mr. Jewell, "I can,
on the basis ot press reports, say that
tho declaration that the organiza
tion of employes who have declined
or who may decllno, as is their legal
right, to accept the. dictates of the la
bor board, ore not to be 'outlawed'
does not remove or annul the offi
cial action of tho board. The lan
guage ot the resolution clearly means
that the shop crafts organizations are
to be supplemented by organizations
of what may be termed 'whitewash
ed strikebreakers.'"
Any reply to Chairman Hooper's
letter, Mr. Jewell's statement con
tinued, will be determined after
"careful consideration."
The statement concluded with a
reiteration of his willingness to sit In
negotiations with anyone who bos a
proposal "up his sleeve." ' i

to the sheriff's office, I passed the

county clerk for the petitions, and 1
referred him to that official for the
Information he requested. Tbis was
my only connection whatsoever with
the matter. The informant of The

There probably is no period in a housewife's life more
dreaded than preserving time. The excessive heat of the
kitchen; the tedious watching of the precious ingredi
ents in the kettle and on top of it all the uncertainty of
the results. Nothing can be more exasperating than to
find, after the jelly is prepared, that the tumblers, into
which it is finally poured, cannot be properly sealed.
The VPRKSSIT Jelly Tumbler eliminate all that un
certainty and worry. It eliminates the need of paraffin
