In speaking of the new ditch to be
taken out on the west side of the
river to irrigate the mesas, gentle
man who is thoroughly posted tells
us that the uplands are better for al
falfa than the river bottoms, as it
does better and there is less likeli-
hood of its running out. This new
ditch would then give us many
thousands of acres of good alfalfa
land.

The committee out with petitions
to Hon. John w. Noble, asking him
to survey that part of the grant he
holds to be public land, met with
good success yesterday. There were
only few who declined to sign the

who did not see the petition.

the Garfield property next to it. An 81 600
option was secured on the Wiles property
yesterday. which fronts eighty feet on Del
aware street. The Garfield property can
be bought for $1,000. The Central Christian
Church property was sold some two weeks

to put into the new edifiee. which
will probably cost $4,000 or $4,000. The
board Of officers were unanimously in

chased at once. John Davidson and O. S.
Dale were recommended to be elected elders

INDIANA'S FAIR BUILDING.
Volunteer Work Will Be Permitted Method
of Concentrating Donations.

Executive Commissioner Havens, OF the
Indiana worlds fair board, returned from
Chicago yesterday, where he went to take
q final look at the plans for the Indiana
building which are being drawn by archi-
tect Cobb. Mr.. Havens says that the ma
terial for the building, both outside and
in. will De of Indiana production SO far as
is practicable. Many concerns have OBJ
tainea permission to perform certain work
with their own men and material for
the advertisements it will be to
them. These petitions are granted in so far
as the board is assured that the work will
not be done with the single eye to display
ing it as an advertisement. None of these
volunteers will be allowed to post con-
spicuously their signs. but the board has
conceived the happy and artistic idea of
having the names of all donating trades
men carved In a solid white-oak panel to
be inIaid over the old-fashioned fireplace
in the reception-room. This will serve
even a better purpose In that 1t will at
tract because of it's artistic merit. and will
not prove as offensive to the eye as a fla
grant painted sign. Ten sets of the plans
have been made and will be distributed
among the ten largest cities of the State.
The building will cost from $50. 900 to $40,-
600. including the value of the donated
work.

GENTLE HINT TO THE BOARD

HARD ON THE BOARD.

Members of Council Think the Private Con-
sumner of Water Should BE Heard.
Last evening O Journal reporter inter-
viewed a number of members of the
new City Council regarding the con-
tract the Board of Public Works
has contrived for the indianapolis
Water Company. The specific question
put by the reporter was whether or
not the member interviewed thought the
board should have looked after the inter-
est of private consumers as well as after
the interest of the city.
Mr.. Lynn think the board should have
seen to it that some schedule was made for
consumers. / have not read the contract
and am not prepared to talk about it.
Mr.. Ryan-Has the board right to make
q schedule for private consumersf If am
on the contract committee Will ask that
citizens be beard in the matter.
Mr.. Rassmann-I read the contract as
published. and noted that there was no ref
erence to prices to be paid by private con-
SINNERS. 1t seems to me that is q very i'm
pOrtant matter. The matter Will be in
vestigated thoroughly.
Mr.. Cooper-Prices for private consumers
can be adjusted at any time The prices
cannot De Increased.
Mr.. Laut-It appears to me that the mat
ter of arranging prices to be paid for water
by private consumers should be attended
to.
Mr.. Schmidt-My opinion is that sched-
ule should be arranged for private con-
sumers.
Mr.. Colter-I have not thought of the
matter yet 1t should be done, how
ever. 1t has been attended to in natural
and artificial gas.
Mr.. Murphy-My understanding is that
the water company's charter provides that
the board or Council can at any time fix
the rates, If not satisfactory. To the same
prices that are paid by other cities of SINH
lar size.
Mr. Gauss-I think private consumers
should be considered.
Mr.. Puryear = The private consumer
should be cared for. The Council should
see to it that he is not gouged.
Dir. Gasper-If we make a new contract
with the water company the private con-
sumner should be considered and recog-
nized as we'll as the monopoly.
Mr.. Allen-I want to look the contract
over before / express an opinion.
Mr. Young-l have not read the contract.
Mr.. Olsen-It is the same thing recon-
mended when chairman of the old water
committee. To the question as to whether
the private consumer would be cared for
