WATER RATE QUESTION.
Ordinance Providing For Reductions
Will Not Be Pushed.

Mayor Drew said this morning in a con-
versation relative to the ordinance reduc-
ing the rates of the water company: THAT
ordinance was passed two years ago and
was the result of the report of a COM
mittee of which 1 was a member. The
committee thoroughly investigated the
matter in all its various detail and recon-
mended a cut of substantially ten per
cent. The water company went before
Judge Williams, who was sitting for
Judge Foster. and he granted a tempo
rary injunction without hearing our side
of the question.
For different reasons, one the illness
of Judge Foster, we were never able to
get hearing before the court. 1t was
to have come before the court in Leav-
enworth the last term, but for some rea-
son, which I have not learned. it failed
to come up. The time is so short now
before some action will be taken on the
water question, that 1 hardly think the
matter will be pushed.
''Judge Hook will hear the arguments,
if the city attorney will appear. before
him in Wisconsin, but l think that the
expense of the trip will hardly justify it,
