The Water Company Case.
Corvallis, Or, March 4, 81.

ED. GAZETTE: -,
The Times in last issue states
that Judge Fullerton had decided
the case of the Water Company
against the city in favor of the
Water Company. If that state
rnent is true to its fullest extent,
then it would appear that there
is nothing left for the poor tax
ridden property owner of this
city to do but dig up $28, 900 and
give it to the Water Company.
Where is to come from? How
are we to get it? Our chs .er pro-
hibits the city from selling bonds
or incurring any greater indebt-
ness than $40, 900, and that for
a city hall. 1t further prohibits
greater levy than S mills tax
for general purposes for any one
year, and mills street tax.
When this pretended contract was
made, the great body of taxpay-
ers thought it was so inequitable,
one sided and unfair that they
instituted legal proceedings to
prevent it being enforced. Now
this same contract which pro-
poses to give the Water Company
at least double what their proper
ty was ever worth, is resurrected
and made the basis of suit
against the city for a specific per-
fornance. The property has
never been assessed for more than
$6, 600, and is not worth more
than from $I2, 900 to $I4, 900.
Why the council ever undertook
to make such a contract is one
of the things thata are past finding
out. Perhaps the manipulators
of the old Job bank could tell
more abont it than anybody else
But the Times is slightly mis-
taken. Its article goes entirely
too far. The Water Company
has not got its clutches on the
throat of the tax payers yet.
"We shall see what we shall see. !"
