PUTTING ON METERS.
The City Receives the Balance of Those
Ordered.

The city has received all of the
meters recently authorized to be pur-
chased, and the BILL $780,. so, was Or
dered paid by the council Friday night.
Twenty of the meters have been
placed, and the remaining thirty-four
are to be put up this month. Already
quite difference in the amount of
water pumped has been made The
city does not derive any additional
revenue by reason of the meters being
put on, for property owners stop the
waste of water as soon as they get
their first months bill under meter
rates, and after that they generally
pay less than they did before. The
benefit to the city comes in the saving
at the pumping station.
The only just way of charging for
water is by means of the meter.

WILL STRAIGHTEN THEIR LINE.

The st. Peter Journal says that
while in conversation with general
officer of the Omaha road few days
since, it was informed that that road
has determined to strsighten it's line
between st. Peter and Ottawa early
next season, by making a grade
straight down the river from the pre-
sent depot to point just this side of
Ottawa. This will obviate the long
horse shoe curve and shorten the dis
lance a mile and half.
