"W'HAT SHALL NE DO FOR wArER?n
is a question which is likely to bother the Trus
tees OF this town, and may Prove topic fol
every household. 1t seems that the supply o
water Is threatened to be cut off By scvera
tncaus. First, the suctiou-pipe Is out Of order
| and liable to be chokcd up with ice or sand, Of
both. The accumulation Of ice prevents its
being repaired at the present time. II tue
| pumps should be stopped for short time from
that cause, or any other, there is danger Of the
mains freezing as soon as the pressure is taken
of. Second, it seems that the Village Of Hyde
| Park and the Town Of Lake arc liable to have
the title to the site on which the watcrworks is
] situatcd Wrestcd from them. il they ever had
Any any title at all in any case it is likely to cost
! them more to sustain their rights than a new
site would cost. IT they should succeed in per
fcciing their title they Nrc still tebarrcd FROM
right OF way to the lake BY another claim.
10 make matters worse, Ill the trouble and
litigation will come just ut the time when new
Boards Of Trustees a{e to be elected in the town
aud village. 1t is q fact that may not be gen-
orally known that the Town of Lake has
larger population and uses more water, than
the Village OF Hyde Park, although, the latter
has MUCH more tcrrltory than the former. It is
becoming question of Importance whether it
would nut be advisable to extend the city limits
to Forty-thlrd street, SO Us to take in the
Stock ] artas. The traffic anl business between
that it is getting TO be a burden u1l tile Town of
Lake to keep the streets in repair. 1t would be
an advantage to uuye the Stock-fards ami pack
ing houses in the vicinity under the surveillance
of the city authorities.
