THE subject of water works has again
been taken up by the city council, and
seems to be in fair way of consumating
into reality. To allow the valuable and
magnificent property of this city to re-
main unprotected any longer would be
criminal, and 1t is . question of doubt
whether any of the stately blocks would
be rebuilt very soon should they be de-
stroyed by fire. With the contracts in
the hands of such reliable and enterpri-
sing citizens as A. Klaus s. Son, 1t is res-
sonsble to expect that system Of water
works can be secured which will be q
source of pride to the city, and at the
same time free of any jobs or steals OF
which 80 much dresd has been manifest
ed in attempts in the past. Another lm-
portsnt benefit at this time will be the
employment this will give to laborers Of
the city, the wages they can earn the
coming summer amounting to more than
the taxes they would pay in life time.

ty, because of the larger diameter of the
bore. This we'll yields water enough fol
ten cities the size of Yankton. But il
has value beyond this. 1t is available
as power for moving machinery. This
means great deal in our prairie region
where fuel IS expensive and IS brought to
us from long distance. 1t is probable
that the new we'll affords a water pres
sure Of rot less than two hundred pounds
per square inch. Confined within a tur-
blne wheel even six inch flow will give
power enough to turn the machinery of a
large manufacturing establishment. The
same flow which furnishes this power can
be reached with larger wells and 1t IS
possible to secure volume of water of
equal pressure foot or foot and half
IN diameter. There IS hardly limit to
possibilities IN this direction should the
artesan supply be utilized for manufac-
turing purposes. No scientific test of
the power of the flow from the we'll can
yet be made, but the judgment of the
men who made it IS tolerably accurate,
because they have had previous expert
ence and draw their conclusions from
comparison with other wells, the force Of
which has been measured. The Aber-
den we'll possesses q pressure of l60
pounds to the square inch and the COL
umbia we'll pressure of ls5 pounds to
the square inch. The force of the water
from the Yankton we'll is greater than In
these wells. The we'll at Fort Randall
gives 210 pounds pressure and it Is esti-
mated that the Yankton we'll is about the
same in force as the Randall we'll. The
attention of our manufacturers will be
Immediately drawn to this cheap and ef.
fectlve source of power and the discove-
ry just made on arteslan hill will un-
doubtedly revolutionlze the manufactur-
