AN INCREASED DEBT.

An additional. argument against mu-
nicipal ownership, and one which is
particularly applicable at this time, is
the great expense connected either
with building new plant or buying
the old one. Waterworks, with their
central power houses, outlying reser-
voirs, dams, and canals, and their
great systems of underground pipes,
are expensive things. They cannot be
bought Or built for song. The sys-
TEN already in operation in Ottumwa
is valued at 100000, and if a new one
were TO he installed certainly the
council would not think of something
poorer and cheaper than that we al
ready have.
The question then is, can Ottumwa
afford an outlay of several hundred
thousand dollars at this time for wa
terworlSs? Certainly not. The city is
already in debt almost up to the legal
limit; it would be folly to add to this
amount another extremely large sum.
If there is one thing more than an
other, that cities of our size should
steer clear of it is a large municipal
debt. And since we cannot have mu-
nicipal ownership without great in
crease in our Indebtedness, let us by
all means do without. If the council is
exceedingly anxious TO have more
bonds to pay, and larger interests to
meet, let them buy something we need
more than we do municipal WATER
works.

rallied for, and appears not
to include it inS the q wonder

party. Mr.. Thayer before he does SO
much shouting should get Mr.. Bryan
off in, a corner and whisper to him.

well the opposition to fusion manifest

they know that Calhoun would never

sore and the real middle-of-the-road
populists believe that they will slough
off from the democrats this year and

place be given on the democratic tick

General Weaver was forced to go and
ask for the railroad commissionership
on the Democratic ticket. And the
only way the populists got it was by
confidencing the democratic delegates.
They realize this and they are getting
madder and madden every day. Hence
Mr.. Weeks claims that his faction con-

his party will be able to WELD power
