THE HIGH GROUND WATER SUPPLY
EditOT Star: There has been much said OF
late in reference TO the supply of water for
the high ground of the nOrthern part OF the
city and also Capitol Hill" The remedy
proposed by the "RegistIar" seems to be I'M
Objectionable so far as IL goes. bat the prop
erty holders in those parts of the city will
not be satisfied until much more ecOnOmi-
cal and effective remedy is accomplished,
namely discOnnection of the two mains at
the junction of the New jersey avenue and X
street northwest. Then we can have suf-
hcient water for all demands on the high
grounds. a Z ms N ri oil rho
