CITY IMPROVEMENT.
Council Discusses Putting in System of
Water Works NexbSpring.

Monday evening the city council gave
the first reading to an ordinance grant
ing a twenty-five year franchise to the
Langdon Telephone Exchange Co., and
; alta special meeting called for next
Monday evening it is expected that the
measure will be given its final passage.
The members of !he council all expressed
themselves as being in favor OF the
proposition made by the company and
t he knowledge that the people of the
city have obtained OF the convenience OF
telephone service since the long distauce
system was put in here has made the
necessity felt OF having local wire.
The Langdor Telephone Exchange Co.,
which is entirely a local concern, offers
to put in service which can be connect
ed with the long distance phones and
will extend their system to the residence
as we'll as the business portions of the
city. Their plan is to have the new line
in operation not later than Nav 1st.
The matter OF more adequate pro-
lection against fire was taken up for
discussion by the council after the regu-
lar business OF the session had been
disposed OF. A plan which the council
views favorably is one similar to that
adopted at MayvlIe since the fire that
swept that town some two years ago.
1t consists OF centrally located water
tower, 100 feet in height. supporting q
tank capable of holding 1000 barrels
and supplied by a gasoline engine pump.
Together with stand pipe, water mains
and hydran,s complete, it is esti-
mated such a plant could be put in for
less than $6,5OO. 1t is just what Lang
don needs and must have some time and
the sooner the better
