ident oil tho Board it affords me pleasure
to turn over to the citizens Of Martins
Ferry what may be considered az complete
in the country for the money expended.
The Trustees started to build these
works with the sole intention Of making
them fret class in every particular.
Tho power house Is amply largo enough
to accommodate additional machinery to
supply e population Of 60,00O people, bas-
ing the daily consumption ut so gallons
per capita.
The reservoir can also be doubled in
capacity at q comparatively email outlay,
by simply building the entertainments,
higher, for which proviaion has been made
in the building Of the same.
The pipe system can EASILY BIO enlarged
by laying the additional main down Sec.
ond street, and using the present Front
street main 40 distributing one.
But in my opinion tho works, barring
extension Of pipss, will be sufficiently
large enough to anaWer oil purposes for
twenty years.
Not wishing to encIoaCh upon your time,
% there are persons here who arc more
able to speak upon this subiec!, l will con.
clude by saying that the works Themselves
will demonstrate the wisdom OF tho truB.
tees and engineer, and that our city has
been very fortunate in securing the ssr-
vices Of such an able and eminent engi.
