character who made murderous assault
upon Charles Sansome at Summerland two
weeks ago, making good his escape from

claims against the canal are not settled

the trouble is simply caused by the refusal
of water users to pay for what they get.

the dispute.

SANTA ANA

SANTA ANA, Sept. 11.-(Regular Corre-
spondence.) Since their visit to San Ber-
nardino the city trustees are more than
ever convinced that in order to rank with
other towns of her size in Southern Callfor-
MIA in the way of public improvements
Santa Ana must construct an adequate
sewer system. Their investigation in that
city has also led them to believe that such
an improvement here would not necessi-
tate SO great an outlay as was at first
supposed, and they feel encouraged to un-
dertake the good work without further de-
day. With the information gathered from
the most reliable sources it Is believed
that an outfall sewer system, fully equal to
the needs of the city, could be built for a
sum not to exceed $4,000, and there seems
to be little doubt that a proposition to is
sue this amount in bonds would be carried.
The question was made the subject OF dis
cussion at special meeting held last night
and the board decided to inspect the vari-
Gus districts near town with view to Sc
lecting tract of land suitable for out
fall sewage purposese. Several ten-acre
tracts about a mile and half from town.
near the race track, were viewed today by
a committee composed of Mayor Avas,
Trustees Parsons and Edgar, City En-
gineer Leslie, City Clerk Tedford and
Street Superintendent Nash. The two
tracts which seem best suited to the re-
quirements are owned one by j. p. Brown
and the other by Frank Riverin, and these
| it is thought, can be bought very reasona-
BILE. The trustees will continue their in
vestigations. fully considering all advan-
tageous points in connection with sewer
building as laid before them by Engineer
Leslie, and 1t is expected that their plans
will soon assume definite shape.
