STILL ANOTHER VIEW
The Water Storage Question Attracting
 Attention in Wisconsin

Chicago and Northw5 Railway Co.
 Ashland Division.
 Office of the Master Mechanic.
 Kaukauna, Wis. Aug. 13. 1900. To the Editor of the Republican:
 Sir-Your recent editorials on the sub iect of water storage would seem to in dicate that the drought of the past season has awakened the people of the Salt River valley to a realization If their urgent need of a better water sup ply. Just so long as moderate prosper ity was experienced under existing con ditiOns many perhaps were passive or indifferent in the matter, thinking that external agencies would in time solve the problem for tn m. But a time of disaster haS a very potent influence in causing serious reflection in regard to a remedy against recurr- nces. The writ CT and others here are interested in lands in the Salt River valley, and doubtless would have made their homes there-or at least improved their prop erty-had We been able to convince our selves that the water proposition was all right; but the element of uncertain ty regarding the water supply has de- tered us from risking this expenditure ana probably will continue to d,3 SO un- til conditions are more favorable. You are undoubtedly on the right track in advocating that the people themselves should at least have an interest in the project of building a reservoir. and in that way have some voice in the man agement. It might even be prcticabe to g. a step further and have the sole ownership vested in the consumers A stock company might be organized and after the people at home had sub scribed to the extent they desire, thf balance could then be placed on the outside market. With a charge of $1 per acre (additional to the present water rental of S1.25 per acre per year), the investment in stock should prove a profitable one, to say nothing of the enhanced value of the land, and which would doubtless be from fifty to one hundred per cent over present values. Should the consumers b. able to handle the controlling interest they would then have the operation and management in their own hands and not be at the mer- cy Of soulless corporations or capi- talists. Your plan to have the county assume one half of the indebtedness w uld be feasible. provided the majori- ty of the electors in the county would be benefited and therefore willing to have their taxes incr5asd to that ex- tent; but if not, the m asure would nec- essarfly fail. By the formation of a stock company, however, the taking If stock would be entirely optional and the plan therefore could meet Wi'th no GppO- sitiOn. excepting perhaps from few who may be so circumstanced that they are in no pressing need for more wa ter and would therefore object to the imposition, from any source. of any addition to their present water rental.
 Yours truly.
