At the regular semi-monthly meeting of the citv council on Monday evening, the water question came up in the shape of a report, with plans and specifications, for a new water system from Killam creek. Engineer W. B. Chase read his report and explained the different features on the chart. His estimate is $42,‘KM) for the complete system, and in reaching these figures he has cut out the reservoir from his previous plans and changed from n Mattison pipe to a steel riveted pipe of only 14 guage. Several members of the water commission had been asked to at tend the meeting, while others had not been apprised that “something was hap pening,” and that the mayor and some of the city council were primed and cocked to saddle a bonded indebtedness upon the city without even consulting the w ater commission or ascertaining whe ther the people approved or disapproved of the project submitted by the engineer. This came up in the shape of an ordinance to bond the city for $45,000. It went to its first and second reading, but be fore it could be railroaded any further Councilman Chase raised an objection s-o that the water commission could be con sulted, consequently the city council de cided to adjourn until the following evening. On Tuesday the city council again met, with most of the members of the water commission, this time by invitation. The engineer again read his report and ex plained the project. Then Mayor Tai mage brought up the question of bond ing the citv bv referring to the ordinance which passed to its second reading the previous evening and which they pro posed passing that evening. B. L. Eddy said he could not under stand, as a business man, why the mayor and city council should take the course they had to bond the city for $45,000, and to tie the city up to a plan which had not been carelully considered. He considered the mayor and city council had insulted the water commission in ignoring it, for. as he understood it, it was the desire of the people of the city that the water commission should inves tigate and decide what it thought best for the city. The water commission had not been given an opportunity to discuss the present plans and decide whether the city could stand $4-5,000 indebtedness. No one knew what the old system could be bought for, and as to the thickness of the pipe which was to be used in the pro posed pipe line, he thought there was not one in the room who understood what kind of a pipe line that was to be put down. The water commission some time ago recommended an indebtedness of $35,000, but now the city council, with, out consulting the water commission, wanted to negotiate bonds to the amount ol $45,000. He thought the mayor and city council were acting very peculiar, and it was an insult to the water commission. C. I. Clough, M. W. Harrison and Geo. Cohn thought if the water commission stood for anything i* should be consult ed and given an opportunitv of examine the plans and specifications. In answer to F. S. Whitehouse, Engi neer Chase explained the thickness of the pipe and how to repair it when it gave out. The water commission had an infor mal meeting and decided to me?t this (Thursday) evening, and when this was made known to the council. Councilman Reynold said ; “We’ll give them until then to decide what thev want to do. I move that we adjourn until Friday.” ❖ V Friction Between the City Council and Water Commission.

As some one mav question the wisdom' of leaving out the reservoir, I will ex plain that reservoirs are for two pur poses. One to store and accumulate water, and the other to protect the citv from a loss of the water supply by a break in the pipe line between the rescr- voir ami the intake. Killam (’reek at its lowest stage flows water enough for a town many times larger than Tillamook, so that storage is not a vital necessity. The reservoir site is 4 3 miles irom town, and 1.5 miles from the intake, so that the reser voir couhl only protect from breaks in the pipe for a distance of 1.3 miles, while the 4.3 is the most dangerous part of the lint But should it ever be considered ex pedient to construct a reservoir, the main !;»»e passes the chosen site, and 500 feet of pipe is all that is required to con nect it with the main pipe.
