Man Tailored Suits.

A tailor with a big salary
makes these suits of ours. He
makes suits for other big con-
Germs east and west. That's the
way he earns his money. The
manufacturers can afford to pay
him for his talents, because it
brings to you ariStocracy in
dress at a small cost.
Fine Man Tailored Gowns of
all wool Venetians and Oxfords
in colors of blue and brown are
marked $II.o8 today instead ut
$40. so. Coats are lined in choic-
est taiteta; skirts with good
quality percaline. Perfect in
hang and dip, proper in finish.
All Wool kersey Jackets in
castor, tan, blue and black. All
silk lined, fancy 4-button box
fronts and velvet collars. Really
worth ten dollars. Ought they
not to go lively at $6.oS?

Ions of water each twenty-four hours
for the next twenty-five years. AS
the company has claimed that they
were pumping more than that amount
in the past it looks as though they ex-
pected the city to lose population in
stead of gaining.
Section 3 provides rules for digging
and filling bitches, etc. Under this
section they can tear up and replace
to suit themselves, just as the Gas
Company does, while everyone else
must fill all trenches on paved streets
with sand and guarantee against set
thing.
Section provides for "better-
ments,' as they call all extensions,
repairs, etc. This guarantees the
company they shall not be required
to put up more than s35, 900 in all such
work. We were led to believe the
company was willing to do all neces-
sary work of this kind and would
spend not less than s35, 900, and as
much more as was necessary to make
a first-class plant. If so, why limit
them to this amount?
Section 81 compels the city to buy
all mains and extensions that are laid
under paved streets at the end of this
franchise. AS most of the streets will
be paved at that time this looks like
a long reach ahead to compel the city
to go into the old iron business. This
clause would no doubt at that time
put the city where they would have to
either buy the entire plant or grant
the Water Company another extern
sion on favorable terms to save them
selves. 1t certainly would shut out
competition when the matter of new
franchise comes up.
There are numerous other objec-
tions, but the ones named should GER
tainly kill the proposed franchise
with all tax payers in the city who
are not financially interested in the
Water Company.
Yours truly,
CHAs. PHELPS.
