wArER.-we have heard several expressions of
charges for water, and would endeavor to i'm
press upon the minds of our people the absolute
necessity Of patronizing the Water Company.
even though high rates are charged. Everybody
is aware that the water obtained from wells dug
In low places near town Is conducive to dis
ease, and that supplied by the water works
is of good quality. Then, should 1t be found
impossible to continue the supply from want OF
patronage, It would lay the city at the mercy OF
n fire at any moment, which certainly would be
o matter more disastrous than the payment OF q
few dollars extra. We trust the company may
make terms as reasonable as possible with the
authorities, and people continue TO encourage
them with their patronage.
