WATER-WoRK eXTRAvAGANCE.


From a man who is close to the in
eide Of the present administration Of
city affairs. and who certainly speaks
us though he understood the situation
he describes, the News" Is supplied
with some evidence calculated TO
strengthen the claim that non-partis-
an city government looking to the ex-
tinction Of pet place-holders and
rank extravaganza in spending public
money is in the highest degree timely
and necessary right now. Speaking of
one department alone, the watcrworks,
II is stated that six men are en-
ployed in City Creek canyon. as fol-
lows: Three at the brick tanks, one
at the Goth ward tank and two patrol
men. The men at the brick tanks each
receive $50 per month for hours
work The man at the Goth ward tank
receives the same; though his services
are only really required about three
months In the year, he Is ON the water
works pay roll the year round The
two patrolmen work "a hours between
them. that Is, II hours each per day
day and night shift. Their duties
are to patrol the canyon
and prevent the befouling OF the
stream. the cutting of timber and
hunting ana fishing. The befoullng OF
the stream and cutting Of timber do
not occur much. but hunting and fish
ing are declared to be frequent oc-
currences to select friends Of the pa
trolmen. While their duties are as
above stated. the man doing night
work on his arrival at the high lire
tank house has been known to put his
horse away and go to bed. Now II
his duties can be performed while
slceping, and none OF the laws are ViO-
lated, why not cut him on the pay roll
and save the salaryof such employees,
amounting in the nelghhorhUod OF
81 900 a year. 1t is charged that these
men are the favored pets Of Mr.. Chris
Diehl, chairman of the waterworks
committee and Republican candidate
for the Council from the Fifth pre-
cinct.
Then there is carpenter employed
by the department who could also NIL
the position of blacksmith helper and
hostlcr-the latter, by the way. has
only the superintendent horse and
buggy To look after. why not have
the carpenter iii the position OF black
smiths helper and hostler. and do his
own work also at the same time and
save the taxpayers about $50 per
month? The question is Why don't
the Republican candidate for council
manic honOrs from the Fifth precinct,
who is also the present chairman OF
the water works committee In the
Council, stop this unnecessary eS-
pense?
Then there are two men running
valves who receive 81 per day each,
and also two ilushers who ride around
In wagon whose duties are to open
hydrants at the ends Of each main
one man can do the work as well as
two I'm each Of these branches OF work.
II the driver OF spriukIlng wagon
can open and close down hydrant
alone how is 1t that Mr.. Delhi thinks
II necessary to allow two men to re-
ceiye pay for the same work?
These are questions the taxpayers
are asking themselves II this is the
way he is now protecting their Inter-
csts. Il great niany OF them nre natur-
ally feeling a little shy about depend
ing upon him to give them ny more
OF that kind OF protection.

objections are due mainly to the fact
that the water In which they are placed
in order to retain their freshness rapid
ly forments, rots, and ongenders mi
crUbes, which thereupun find among the
fever stricken and anemic patients OF
the wards a most favorable field for
growth and propagation. of course.
this drawback could be remedied by
