and it was roforred back to tho com
mittee and city engineer .

to the same general tenor and effect.
"I am sorry to have him quit, but
hope he will do less talking," inter
posed Councilman Manning, and
then Councilman Johnson leaped tn
his feet and submitted a motion that

with Instruction that he use his In
fluence to prevail upon him to re

Councilman Greenbaum then
gained tho floor long enough to say,
"I hope he will reconsider; I would
hate to lose him," and after Coun
cilman Eldrldgo had stated that he
had not expected "all those bou
quets," and assigned as his reason
for resigning that "old age was
creeping on and also Infirmities,"
tho question came to a vote.
The vote was not .unanimous, but

CITY COUNCIL WILL GIVE COM
PANY A CHANCE TO REDUCE
PRICE OF PLANT BEFORE
SUBMITTING PROPOSITION TO
A VOTE.
Because it desires to submit to
the people the best offer that tho
Snlem Water company can make In
relation to the salo of Its water
plant to the city, the city counc 1
last evening after considering the
proposition of a mountain water
Bysleni for the city as outlined In a
report on the subject submitted'ly
Engineer Whistler instructed the
water committee to again wait upon
the water company and learn -If It is
not desirous of making a bettor
prlco on its plant.
The question was the last matter
to bo considered "by the council and
It resolved Itself Into a committee of
the whole With Alderman Green
baum in the chnlr for its considera
tion. Mayor Rodgers then gained
the floor and proceeded to give an
outline and history of the work done
In an endeavor to secure for the city
a mountain water system. He
stated that three propositions were
now open to the city that of pur
chasing the plant belonging to the
Salem Water company that of se
curing a gravity sysfem either from
Breltenbush Springs or from tha
North Fork of the Sant'am. river,
and that the subject had now re
solved itself down to a matter of
procedure.
' Submit But One Question.
He had advocated the submission
to the voters of but one question- -and
that was as to whether they de
sired to purchase the plant of tho
Salem Water company as to submit
any alternatives with it would prob
ably result In confusion and such a
division of tho vote that the wholo
subject might go down in defeat.
Under tho charter he explained, it
was mandatory to submit to the
peoplo tho proposition of the pur
chase of the present plant before ac
tion could bo taken looking to the
installation of an independent
pant, and that should the people
vote down tho proposed purchase ot
tho Salem water plant, tho council
would then bo In a position to sub
mit to tho voters tho considerations
of othor systems.
He stated he was not satisfied
with thj3 price submitted with rela
tion to tho plant, nnd that ho be
lieved that the regular water com
mittee should wait on the company,
and ascertain whether It would not
make a better offer before tho ques
tion was submitted to the people for
their vote. After considerable dis
cussion of tho subject the council
voted to do so, and a report will he
submitted by the committee at tho
next meeting of the council.
