ership Of Prof. Turner, under whom the menu

WATER WORKS.
Facts About the Holly system,


In reply to inquiries made by us of, the
city authorities of Canton, Ohio, as to the
success OF their Holly System of water
works, they send us the report of the chief
engineer of their water works which cost
them but 100000, water brought two
miles from lake. He says of the system:
The Holly machinery in use here is
equal to any heretofore built by them, and
was promptly delivered and put in work
ing order, long before we were ready to use
it; compliments are unnecessary; it is the
system for general use, and will be the
popular plan. At the time 1 reported to
your City Council in favor of its introduc-'
ton here, it was publicly printed in papers
in this State, that mo Engineer of any
ability would endorse that system" 1
took the risk, knowing the principle was
right, and can not now point to the cities
of Dayton and Columbus, Ohio; Indian
apolis and Connersville, Ind; and Cow
lngton, KY; which are under contract for
the Holly machinery. Some thirty sets of
different sizes have been built or are under
contract, and the experience of every place
using them is, that they are perfect sue
cess"
The Holly engines were put on this con-
tract, "that the water engines should be
capable of throwing 100000 gal
Ions in twenty-four hours-that with
ten feet head on the turbine wheels, the
engines should throw three simultaneous
one-inch streams eighty feet high through
hose attached to hydrants 5000 feet dis
tant from the works, the machinery to
cost Sl2,146 when set up in the engine
house." - -.-,fn .',r-W "A 8
These engines have performed their
work. Such powerful pumps would sup
ply us with water all over the city at the
cost of the engines and pipes. Our City
Council should at least make full investi-
CATION into the merits of this system.
