about the new pumping station, and

tion a reporter put to Mr. NJ. Pollock.
well, I think we are in a position to
settle it Monday evening. AS for my
self, am in favor Of staying right where
we are, at the foot of Eighth street. The
estimate we have been given by Mr.. De-
crow foots up $4,000, and from that,
taking into account the way they at
tempted to charge us for the ground,
FOR rights Of way, ETC., think we would
not get out OF # under Sl4O,O 600 or $780,
600, I am in favor Of staying right
where we are, and building an entirely
new power house. Then we can run a
sewer up along the river, to catch GER
iain drainage, and be in pretty good
shane. We had trouble about getting
the ground, then we would have TO buy
the lease OF the man who is using il,
then we had another right Of way 10
buy, and the Panhandle Railroad Com
pany showed symptoms Of intending 10

Another thing. The pipe would have
TO be laid down on the county road, and
10 is so narrow for a considerable dis
lance that 10 would shut of all travel
from Up the river while we were at
work. I think 10 had better be given
up, aud proceed upon the original plan
OF OF remaining at Eighth street, but
put put up an entirely new building"
