namo 1.-THE unit stricken out) be added
next season. The present arrange
ment will permit of this without any
sacrifices on the part of the city.
While, as we have said before, the
waterworks system will not be as ex-
tensiye as was originally contem.
plated, yet the more important and
expensive part Of the work will have
been accomplished. The power house,
pumping station and water tower will
have been built and machinery in
stalled of sufficient capacity to pro-
vide for the needs Of the city for a
great many years to come. The ten,
eight and six-inch pipe will all be laid
and connections made with the Agri-
cultural college, the water tower on
Williams street In east Brookings,
and with the old and new stations,
thus making an almost complete cir.
cunt of the city. This, then, will
leave only the 4-inch pipe to be pro.
Yided on the cross streets and which,
we understand, Is not In the market
and cannot be bought at any price
this season. 1t will be an easy mat
ter for the city to make extensions as
fast as it can find water takers and q
few thousand dollars invested next
spring will yield quick returns.
As 1t will be necessary to add an
other engine and dynamo to the light
plant next spring, 1t would be wise
act on the part OF the city to provide
also for putting In all the water mains
that will be needed to supply water
takers, thus completing both systems

ing basis. This will increase the rev.
enues and aid In the payment of all
Indebtedness incurred in installing
the same. In fact there is no good
reason why, by this combination of
the two plants, they cannot be made
to pay every dollar OF Indebtedness.
The board has worked honestly and
conscientiously and in our judgment
have accomplished great results. A
representative Of the REGISTER has
attended all meetings, heard all dis
cussions, looked over the plans and fol-
lowed the subject with much interest
and care and, in all probability, is In
as good position to Judge their work
as the ordinary citizen. We feel like
patting them on the back for this par
ticular job of work because the REG
IsTER believes they have done all
that could have been done under the
peculiar circumstances surrounding
the letting of the contracts. When
the public becomes thoroughly IA
miliar with the situation we are cer-
tain that they will not only commend
their action, but will stand ready to
render all possible assistance in carry
ing the work to completion.
