Statement from Local Board of Health

Charles W. Cummings of North Au-
gusta, will resume his milk route, May
1, next, and it is due to him, as well as
to the public, that we make a state
ment of the conditions under which he
will resume his business.
The quarantine on his house and
dairy was removed April IA, and the
premises thoroughly disinfected by
Health officer Harris, under the drec-
ton of the Board of Health. The herd
of COWS during and since the quaran
tine have been thoroughly inspected by
Health Officer Harris and Veterinary
Surgeon Bakeley and pronounced to be
absolutely free from disease, and have
been thoroughly washed i'm strong dis
injecting solutions several times dur
ing and since the period of quarantine.
and as a result of the treatment can
not possibly convey any disease. This
herd of 20 Jersey and Holstein cows are
young, healthy and in good condition.
They are kept in light, well ventilat-
ed barn; neat and modern in all its
apartments. They are doubtless one of
the finest herd of milk cows in Kenne-
bee county. Every precaution has
been taken to insure thorough disin-
lection and inspection of the house,
barn and herd of cows, SO as to render
it absolutely safe for Mr.. Cummings to
resume his business. 1t is due him to
say that he has acted honorably and
conscientiously with the public and
Board of Health. 1t is also understood
that he has made every effort in his
power to reimburse his customers for
any financial loss they may have sus-
tanned. We consider it perfectly safe
for his customers to take milk of him
on his resumption of his route, May 1,
next.

SAYS WATER PLANT
WILL BE PURCHASED
System Can Be Bought Under
State Law.
BY BEING CONDEMNED
When II Year Hydrant Con-
tract Expires.

On account of a report yesterday that
| the movement to purchase the water
4 works plant by the city or Wichita has
| been delayed too long and that the pur-
chase cannot be made before the expira-
ton of another five years, as per an or
| dinance regulating the same, Mayor Nc
Lean last evening said:
THAT matter was brought up in the
city council in the latter part of August,
1901. The council was unanimous for The
purchase of the plant. y. E. Helm, then
city attorney, was instructed 10 look the
matter up and see what could be done
in the way OF making the purchase. He
was instructed to take whatever steps
he deemed necessary toward the purchase
of the system. He made a report at that
time to the council in which he stated
that The city would have the right to
purchase the water works by condemna-
ton under the provisions of the state law
at the expiration of a contract with that
company for hydrant rentals, which is
October l. 1904.
Neither myself nor any member of
the city council continued the mayor.
has had any idea of buying the plant in
any other way. 1t was the unanimous
wish. and is still, that the system be
bought at the first opportunity. That
was well known to Mr.. Helm at the time.
The council and myself relied on him to
instruct us from time to time. so as to
enable us to carry out the plan. 1t strikes
me that it comes with very poor grace
for Mr.. Helm to suggest that the mayor
and city council have been negligent or
careless in looking after a matter that
he, more than any member of the council
or the mayor. was charged with looking
after. Mr.. Helm, ii L remember rightly.
in his own report to the council said that
the city of Wichita could. if necessary.
procure more efficient water service and
cheaper rates by constructing a system
of its own under provisions of state
law made in 1897, which grants to all
cities full power TO construct such works
and to provide for their payment by
issuing bonds for that purpose when they |
are authorized by vote of the electors of |
a city. l believe that he also said that |
the city has the right, under recent de- |
cisions of the supreme court, and Judge |
Hook of the United States circuit court, |
to establish by ordinance new reasonable |
maximum charges for the use of water |
furnished by Il company &c consumers"
He added: 1T has been the intention of |
the present administration, and still is, |
that the matter be taken up when the |
time comes. The city attorney will be |
instructed to take the necessary steps at
the proper time to purchase the plant I'M
der the state law. None of the rights of |
the city has been lost to purchase the
plant. as above, if Mr. Helms report to
the council is correct"
