Io the Honorable Mayor aod Council of Hie City of Hood Uiver: Gentlemen : In presenting yon with j'biiwou roi anotber eleotiou on bringing water to Hood River fiom inoKer t spring It may not be oat of Piace to give our reaaooi for tbli so nuu. in. A larger and better supply for ure pioieonon la urgently needed in eveiy pari or tbe city. m. expected growth of tbe city will forre this issue upon as In tbe very near mtare it we do not volun (amy atwiirrie It now. 3d. 'ibe state board nf haalth its last repoit urged upon tbe import suae oi "immediately securing abundant and wholesome aupply water, reoommending munioipal 4tb.

Such a contract would confine another part ui iub cuy io its p repent nnsHtisfao tory water and with uo fire protect lion. Dix men mains, which to proposed in tbe public meeting to use if no oontraot were made with the city, must be teplaoed later by eight moo mains wneu are byrirants are in stalled, thug keeping the streets oon tinually dug up. Fit b. lhis committee, at a consider aMo expense to ouiselves, secured the services or toe most competent en&i neer in tlio iti.te to t" over all tbe propottii i-ldiis and measure tbe water. Mi No ell was for many yeara witb toe u. k. a a. uo. ibe state engl ueer ri'Qumioended hiui to us Ilia le port is us follows: Uu March 9 1 made we'r measure ments ol tbe lucker spring, about six miles soul west of liood River, wltb tbe following results: For tbe weir at tbe main spring, 500 gallons per minute. b'or the weir ah mt 50 yards below, C'V) callous per minute. At neither of these plaoea can tbe entire amount of water be oolleoted and made to pass over tbe weir. At the Bret one a little water can be seen on either side seeping tbrougb tbe earth aud rocks, aud tbe lower weir is at tbe foot of a reoent slide wbiob baa Lacked tbe water up In a shallow pool, tbe level of which we were , obliged still fuitber to raise iu plac lug our weir, so tbut it is reasonable to assume that there was au appreci able amount of wtitei seeping iuto tbe loose, r cky isrouu I at tne ends ot tbe weir. The aino'.nt inea.-uieil at tbe loer weir, 025 gallons per uiirue, would iimouot to 900,000 gull per J.ij. Uue uunureil gallons 1 1 r uay is uu tin'Ple alloi'iince for euili inhabitant I t ad ilo'iiontia purpura; l,m, oon- silerini: tb. laruo amount ot sprink 1 '!!! whioh it is desirable to do lu tbe bummer time at Hood River It might Le adviseable to allow as much a 150 gallons. Ibis supply would suffice tben for COOO people. It is a little doubtful whether fourteen loch pips would carry tbe entire volume of tbe spring on i grade of three feet per mile, as pro posed by Mr. Roberts, but If this grade could be increased to four feet, which it seems tbete could be no trouble in doing, this size of pipe would be ample for tbe purpose. 1 lead Mr. Robert s report over carefully aud while I could not, of course under suob circumstances, make soy check on tbe quantity, yet bis report is full and explicit, aud bears tbe mama of baving been care fully worked out. - As to tbe- polioy of securing a wa ter sudcIv from this- spring for do mestio purposes, it seems to me tnit the Citv of Hood River can make no mistake in seouiing every available supply within reasonable dlstanoe, T ntwloiMinnil Hior ore two other dob sibie sources of supply, namely: Ibe Oreen Point spring and tbe Lake Fork ot Hood River. It either of these is used this pipe is in direct line for an extension and tbe same r'gbt of way would permit pipes to be laid for either ot these sources, if desirable. Yours respectfully, . J. P. NewelL Ctb. The most Important part of Mr. Robert's report, tbe part most favoi able to tbe city, bas never jet beeu published and we would respect fully cell attention to tble art of bis report. Committee. A petition was received, uigned by 105 tax payers and voteiv, asking that tbe council call no more special elec tions for either putting in a water system of their own, or buying the present plant, until such t'u e as tbere was actual need of tbe same by reason of tbe city needing more watei. aud also ashing tbat tbe city nmke a con tract with tbe present water company for a term ot five yenia, lor the in stallation of 21 hydrants, at a rental of $3 per month eaob; thei-orupany to make improvements in th plant in accordance witb tbe nqtiiieiuenta of tbe board ol Are underwrite. Roth petitions were referred to tbe judiciary committee, to report at the next meeting. . .' Mr. Davidson addressed tbe council in the Interest of tbe petition. Mr Davidson said tbat be found. In going around witb tbe petition, that many people did not want their property bended at the present tiuce to put in water. Referring to the report of Lo slneer Newell, read by Mr. Treiber, be said tbat it compared favorably witb tbe Roberts report. Ibe princi pal objection he bad lo tba Tucker spring was tbe elevutiou and also stated tbat tbe amount ot water In tbat spring was no more than In tbe present npper and lower water sys tems. He thought tbat tbe city should not bond for water ontil it as need ed. The company could give more pressure in the hill witb a pump from tbe lower spring than could le ob tained from the Tucker spring Tbey would take care of tbe bill. Ibe time would oome when the city would have to go into tbe water bnsim , nd should tben go to Urceo Point for the water. Tbere was a demand for Ore protection. Many building in tie business district were wooden struct ures and tie city should be protected against a dangerous Hre.
