Claim That Village Charges
Too Much for Court
House Water.
COMMISSIONERS REFUSE TO Al
LOW THE BILL In FULL.
Councilmen Claim Bill Was Too
Low as Originally Sub
mitted.


The city and county fathers
are at outs on the question Of the
water supply for the county
court house. The county COM
missioners claim that the water
rate charged them is too high,
while the council asserts the rate
is much below that given the
residences. 1t is the contention
of the former that the court
house and court house grounds
are ornamental to the village, a
good advertisement and a benefit
to Bemidji, and that for this
reason a very cheap water rate
should be. given. The city trus-
tees state that several houses
about town are also ornamental
and a good advertisement and
Z there is no more reason why
they should pay for the water
used than should the county
authorities pay for court house
water.
At the last meeting of the
county board the water bill was
acted upon. The bill charged
at the rate of $50 a year for all
the water used about the build .
inc. and grounds. The bill was
allowed at Is yer cent. This
action of the board was not made
known until this week, otherwise
the water at the court house
would probably have been turned
off, the same as would have been
the -case-ii a private family had
refused to pay. The county
board will not meet again until
Oct. 20, so that no further action
can be taken on the bill till that
time. AS this is court week the
county will be allowed to use of
the water, unless the councilmen
decide on some other course.
After the adjournment Of court,
however, it is said that the water
will probably be cut off. Street
Commissioner Pogue says that
this would have been done be-
fore if it had been known that
the water bill was not allowed
in full.
At the meeting Of the council
last night Mr.. Pogue submitted
figures showing that the county
should really be charged S1O9
year water rent, where they are
now charged only $50. This is
figuring at residence rates, and
does not count several eStr |
:swater fxings'' about the build
ing. 1t is said that the bill as al
lowed by the commissioners will
not even pay for the gasoline
used in pumping the water.
If the city finally decides to
shut off the court house water
supply the county commissions
ers say that very interesting
developments will follow.
