Superintendent Gasser is busy fixing
the water rate preliminary to the work
of the council providing for the regula-
tion OF the waterworks and the water
supply. The matter of water rates has
been an inextricable tangle ever since
the city came into possession. Under
private ownership carelessness and neg

to adjust themselves in an unequal and

were not paying in proportion to the
water used, but merely as the accident
OF accounting forced or permitted them

made to pay in strict accordance with
the water used. While this will raise

raised rates should remember that tbey
