Briefly described, the plan proposed
with MIL creek as a source. would be
to bul4u a gravity conduit. which VIII
carry the waters from Mill creek TO
the city, deliver it to a filtration bed
and thence to a reservoir TO be lOca-

extended about miles up the stream

extension of the intake pipe up the
stream to a suitable point in the foot
hills, near the source of Mill creek,
on Sec. IS, Twp. 6 n. R. SO E., would
be the most desirable location for the
point of diversion and would furnish
whole some water for domestic use.
If the point of diversion can be eX-
tended to this point about II miles
up stream from the reservoir, the ne
cessity for filtration plant would
probably be done away with, thus
making the system much simpler and
less expensive to operate.
The water shed of Mill creek and
its tributaries, above the point of d.
version, should be under control OF
the city of Walla Walla, thereby in
surfing a clear stream, free from CON
tamination. l am informed that the

with the uncertainty of success in OBJ
tanning a strong permanent flow. it
is my Judgment that this proposition
is too much il the nature of a chance
to receive serious consideration. ex-
cert as a last resort.
Mill creek seems to be the only re-
liable supply at hand, within a rea-
sonable distance from town. 1t is MY
judgment that Mill creek is the most
logical source of supply for municipal
water works purposes for the city of
Walla Walla
At low water stage, this stream
flows 2S,000000 gallons; about one
eigth of,the low water flow would be
required at a time when Walla Walla
has doubled it's present population.
The general fall Of Mill creek is 65
feet per mile westward, making it
possible to locate reservoirs at any de-
sired elevation.
From Mill creek it is possible to OBJ
tain a gravity supply for the city,
practically from a mountain source)
which is plan of too common a char
acter to require special comment.
That it is preferable and cheaper OF
maintenance than any system of sup
ply from pumps, goes without saying.
If the intake pipe can be extended
far enough up stream, | have no doubt
it will result in obtaining a pure sup
ply of water with little danger of
contamination.
The city of Walla Walla should Sc
cure the rights to use not less than
100000 gallons from this stream for
municipal water works purposes by
purchasing enough of the irrigation
and power rights heretofore acquired
by other parties. This is the cheap
est, most available and only source

The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1903-09-24

Statistics show that the amount OF
water actually used is about two and
one-half times the quantity actually
needed; that is to say that 60 pei
cent Of all the water used is wasted
while only 40 per cent is actually re
quired. From this it would follow
that for family of five the consump
ton would actually be 500 gallons, OF
zoo gallons per capita.

Not Seeing Evil.

To allow the mind to dwell unon
or to look often at low things is 70
uncosciously lower ones standards
and the tone of ones character, To
say that the contemplation of evil
and it's consequences is valuable 90
a warning against wrong-doing is
true; but it is a question if such
consideration of wrong is not some
times harmful. Old as Pope's coup
lets are, they point a truth which
we do well to take to heart:
Vice is monster of so frigbtfuI
mien,
As to be hated needs but to be seen:
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her
face,
We first endure, then pity, then
embrace.
To keep the mind on good and
strive after high things is a surer
way of progress and of develop
ment than to keep constantly look
ing for the gins and pitfalls. Keep
your mind on the true, the beautiful
and the good, so shall you incorpo-
rate all these virtues into your char

Habits in the Child.

The following is taken from a pa
per on Habits and Will, by Mrs.
Theodore W. Birney, in the Delinea-
tor for September: "The habits Of
reverence, gent1eness, courtesy, hon
esty, courage and patience, like their
opposites, are absorbed by the child
from those with whom he is most
closely associated. It is in these
attributes that an ounce of example
outweighs a ton of precept. It is a
charming custom to lose no oppor-
tunity either in reading fiction or in
the circumstances attending on
everyday living to express an enthu-
siastic appreciation of the good, the
noble, beautiful and true, but Valua-
BILE beyond and above all discussion
of these virtues is, "To be as nearly
as we can what we wish our children

What We Read.

The Howells said in "Silas Lap
ham" that our civilization came
mainly through books. Nothing
could be truer. It is but a modicum
of culture that we get by open pre-
cept or by word of mouth. We alb
sorb u ideas about life and our
ideas for both art and life from
books. This being the case, nothing
is more important than the sort of
books we read. We should see to
it, above all, that they be healthyS
above all, sane. Books which tend
to pull down ones faith in life or
in mankind are not for us. Sweet
ness and light is a thing to have in
front of us. We want our civiliza-
ton to tend toward these things,
and we will do well to test our read
ing by them.-September Woman's

Happiness in Human Relations.

Cladius Clear, writing in the Brit
ish Weekly on the cart Of Life"
gives some sensible, practical adj
vice about nurturing family happi-
ness. He says:
Chat there is an art of life which
needs to be cultivated may be shown
by various examples. Especially
the need is clear when we turn to
life's most intimate relations. We
are apt to take for granted that
natural affection will make them all
that they should be without thought
or painstaking. A man and m
marry; they are heartily in love with
each other. What more is necessary
for a happy life? Much more is
necessary. Happiness is neither a
vested right nor a self-maintaing
state. What is necessary is to make
sure that love shall not only last, but
grow stronger. 1t is not a matter
of coUrse that this should come to
pass. 1t takes skill and science to
maintain life through life's various

A Capital Story.

Another capital story going
around is at the expense of Gov
ernor Aycoek. Be fore he was Gov
ernor he appeared in a trial in Will
son County, and with his usual ar
dor was pressing the examination of
a witness. He said to the latter;
care you marriedg" The witness
replied; eyes" "Whom did you
marry?" GA woman" was the instant
reply. The Governors next ques-
ton was: "Well, did you ever hear
of any one who did not marry a
woman" To this the witness re-
piled, with his broadest grin: eyes,
my sister married a man." 1t is
said by people who were on the spot
that it was five minutes at least
before any more business could be
done. Even the judge roared and
put it down hal it was the best
thing he had heard since he had
been on the bench. AS for Gov
ernor Aycock, it is said that he
treated the entire outfit to water

INA SHOWER OF GOLD.
Four Million Dollars Received at Baltimore
Clears the Financial Atmosphere.
(By the Associated Press.)

(By the Associated Press.)
Baltimore, Oct 20-Four millions of
dollars which arrived here early this
morning by express from New York, Phil
adelphia and Washington cleared the
financial atmosphere, and at the closing
time of the various monetary institutions
this afternoon there was every confidence
that the crisis in the financial district
of the city had been safely passed. Every
incoming train during the afternoon and
evening brought packages of money to the
banks and trust companies and tonight
it is estimated that there is at least
$8.0O0OO0 of currency in the vaults of the
financial institutions of the city.
Conferences were held during the even
ing between various interests, and it was
stated late tonight by a prominent bank
er that no further trouble among the
banks or financial institutions was prob
able.
The directors and the receiver of the
Maryland Trust Company, the first u
close its doors on Monday held confer
ence to lay and discussed ways and means,
but late tonight Receiver Allan McLane
said he had nothing to make public
though he expressed the opinion that the
company would in the near future be in
position to pay dollar for dollar to de-
positors and creditors.
The directors of the Union Trust Com
pany also held a long session during the
day While the statement of assets AMI
liabilities of this company is not ready
to be presented to the courts, Receiver
White expressed the opinion that the
company will in a few days resume bust
ness.
Other banking and trust companies have
been we'll fortified with currency, and no
further trouble is expected from any
quarter.
