Water Supply.
The proposed plan of increasing our
water supply from Parley's canyon will
give but little relief. A carefully pre-
pared plan should be matured for in
creasing our water supply, and when
such plan is shown to our citizens to
be practicable and adequate to meet
the present and future wants of the
city. no doubt the people will cheerfully
render all needful assistance.
"A large amount of artisan water
can be had by sinking wells in the
western and southern part of the city,
which water can be pumped UP into
reservoirs and distributed for domestic
and sprinkling purposes. No doubt
the most of this water can be made
available for all uses, as many cities
east and west depend entirely on arte-
sian water. The project is well worth
the expenditure of a Reasonable amount
of money.
The future issue of bonds should be
kept well in hand by the tax pay
ers and no threat of their public serv-
ants should be held over them, that if
they do not vote bonds their taxes will
be increased. The taxes are all the
people can afford to pay in the high
valuation of real estate.
The people are the source of power.
and create public opinion. Let them
control their public debts and taxa
tlonswhiie they own property and homes
or failing to do so. interest bonds and
incEased taxation will continue to
make public improvements. and when
made others will own the homes that
the people now possess"

Shooting of bradford by Graham
Had Many Eye witnesses.

Mr.. John A. Graham, who shot and
killed Mr.. John t. Bradford, in st. Marks,
Fla. last Sunday. returned to the city
yesterday morning. When he was seen
in his Office Mr.. Graham was not in
cliued to discuss the subject.
It is said. however, THAI the former ac-
counts of the shooting have been in some
measure incorrect. in that they located 1t
in Mr.. Graham's room at the hotel, while,
as matter of fact, 1t occurred on abe
hotel piazza. and in that they stated Mr..
Graham and his relatives were the only
persons by whom he shooting was wit
messed, whereas 1t all transpired in plain
view of a number of reputable citizens OF
the town, whose evidence was given at
the coroner's inquest
Mr.. Graham expressed his regret at the
unfortunate occurrence and the necessity
that forced him TO take the life of Brad
ford He did not think however, that il
would be proper for him to discuss the
subject, and he declined to do so.

HURRYING UP THE CENSUS.
Two City EnumeratOrs Have Fin

SavaRnahs census enumeration is pro-
crossing rapidly BY the end of this week
Supervisor Blum expects that the majority
OF the enumera tors will have eompTs ted
their work. Two enumerators .epo ted
yesterday that they had completed their
districts. The supervisor has not yet
checked up their work, however, ond so
the districts are not officially complete
one or two Others are expected to make
similar reports to-day. the districts COM
pleted yesterday however, were among
the smallest in the city
The reports of the city enumera tors show
that they are taking names at the rate
of from 125 10 $50 a day each. The aver
age rate is about f75 a day. The country
enumerators are making about half this
rate. This is natural as they have a
great deal more ground to cover ami
twice the time 10 do ii in.
Each enumeration district is expacted

ing the basis upon the division made. Some

THE FOURTH TIME ON TRIAL.
Damage Suit of Rebeccn wells
Against the Brush Company.


Against the brush Company.
The oft-tried damage suit of Rebecca
Wells. against the Brush Electric Light
and Power Company was on trial, for
the fourth time, in the City Court yester-
day. In the three former trials, the plant
IF has recovered, and just as often, the
decision has been reversed, and the case
remanded by the Supreme Court.
The plaintiff sues for 5000 damages,
for the death of her husband, who was
lineman in the employ of the defendant
company and was killed by a current Of
electricity, while strlnging wires in the
southern section of the city. The acct
dent happened several years ago. On the
first trial the plaintiff recovered dam
ages in the sum of $500 and $3.50 on the
two trials that followed.
Messrs. Twiggs & Oliver represent the
plaintiff, while Messrs. Saussy & Saussy.
and A. C. Wright are looking after the
interests of the defendant Evidence was
introduced during the entire day, and at
I o'clock. a recess was taken1 until $50.
At this hour. some little further testimony
was introduced.
The counsel for the defendant moved
the court TO direct a verdict, on the
ground that the case, as Ii had been
made out by the witnesses, was con-
trolled by the last decision of the Supreme
Court. Argument was had on this ques-
ton and Judge Norwood reserved his
decision. 1t will be rendered when court
convenes this morning. Should ii prove
unfavorable. to the defendants motion,
the arguments upon the merits of the
case will then be made; should it. on the
other hand. be in favor of the motion,
the case will be ended.
