ATTITUDE ON WATER

The annual report of the Street and

a preposterously long document
Tho portion of it which will be most
eagerly looked for is that which refers
TO the water question. Here it Isl
Our first intention was to make no
reference to this matter, but mature con-
sideration has prompted US to denne our
position, for the reason that silence might
be construed to indicate that we haa
either permanently abandoned considera-
ton of the subject or that the Clique Oh
individuals, not wholly disinterested, was
acting as a temporary deterrent we
are quite alive to the subject. we pe-
ieve that the citizens of this community
want plentiful supply of pure water,
and want it as soon as 1t can De hau.
We believe that a large majority OF our
citizens desire that the source OF our
present supply should be changed. we
believe that the public sentiment OF this
community will sustain US If we afrord
broad enough opportunity to prospective
bidders. and then make award for that
service which best coEprehends purity
and practically unlimited supply, low
price and quick delivery. This being our
belief, we propose to act accordingly, but
we also propose that this city shall reap
the full advantage of any betternent OF
conditions which may possibly result from
action of the present Legislature, for,
while we appreciate the fact that there
is a great desire for speedy action, we
feel that the city should not be manacled
for a long term of years to contract
the conditions of which could not but be
irksome if we failed to have embodied
therein every possible advantage and pro-
lection to the municipality

were more or less bruised and hurt in
a trolley car collision on University
avenue last evening. The cars were
crowded with men and women from
the ball park, and had the cars been
running al a higher rate of speed the
accident would surely have been much
more serious. The injured are:
Arthur Strauss, a clerk employed at
Foot, Schulze & Co.'S shoe store; in
jured internally.
Matt Jensen, clerk in the state
treasurer's office: cut across temple,
right shoulder bruised.

The accident occurred at the inter
section of Kent street with University
avenue, on a down grade. There were
dozen ball trains, consisting of open
motors with trailers attached, in a line
going east from the ball grounds on
Dale street to the city on University
avenue. There were three cars ahead

Strauss, who was the most seriously
injured, was standing on the platform
at the head end of the motor car in

stopped, Car No. 236, Motorman c.

crashed into the rear of Car No. 236

right knee was bruised painfully. The
cars were delayed about twenty min

screams nearly caused a panic. AS

Water Broke Loose,

A sensational telegram comes from
Frankfort over the associated press
wires with more or less foundation in
fact to the effect that the citiz - re
greatly alarmed on account CT -, eat
ened destruction OF the town by an
uncomfortable artesian we'll. Several
ears ago a we'll was put down and
from the date OF striking water, so
much dirt was thrown up with the
water that it could not be used unless
allowed to stand for some time. In
November OF last year q hole cavcd
in around the well, the pipe broke off
about go feet below the surface and
disappeared, but the water was pre-
vented from spreading over the town
by digging large ditch leading to the
jim river.
Thereafter, the ground continued to
cave in until now the hole is about
100 feet inwidth and so feet in length.
In February q sounding was made
and the depth OF water in the hole was
found to be "a feet.
In March another sounding was
made and its depth was shown to be
81 feet. 1t is believed now to be
about 80 feet.
Last Friday twelve feet more Of the
bank caved in without warning.
What causes more alarm than any.
thing else is that the water has brok.
en- out on the railroad track near the
depot, 200 feet from the hole and also
near the hotel, 90 rods distant, in the
center OF the business part OF the viii
lage. The people fear that the town
has been undermined by the water
and that some day the town site will
collapse. precipitating the town into
the bottomless pit. The railway
company is also alarmed, as the water
is washing away its tracks. Experts
will come there at once to ascertain if
there is any danger OF such p disas-
ter.
