To the Patrons Of the Glen
wood Spring and the Public:

uoVu OFiHbS 0aIu ttsV U6itvi
The attempt of certain parties, for
reasons that may be obvious, to injure
the business of the Glenwood Spring
by circulating a report that surface
water runs into it, affecting its purity,
calls for plain statement of facts.
1st- There is absolutely no way for
surface water to get into this spring,
as can be shown to the satisfaction of
anyone who cares to inspect it.
2nd-This water boiling up through
q stratum of clear white sand, comes
from great depth as is evidenced by
the fact that there is a variation of
only two degrees in it's temperature
during the entire year.
3rd-Of the hundreds of people who
have used this water, there has been
only one case of typhoid, that of a par
ty who is admitted to have also used
other water
Anticipated analyses of this water
have demonstrated it's purity.
Among the physicians who are now
using it at their homes and offices are:
DR.. w. H. Harris. secretary of the To-
cal board of health; DR.. w. Scott Hill,
DR.. John Moore. DR.. O. S. C. Davies,
DR.. A. II. Sturtevant. DR.. G. e. Friend
and G. C. Sheldon, chairman Board of
Health
This spring water has also been used
at the City Hospital since its establish
ment. There is no purer water in the
State. AT my request the local board
of health has made a thorough inspec-
ton of the spring and has assured me
that not only does no surface water get
into this spring, but also that there IS
no possible way that it can get in. They
have expressed themselves as fully sat
isried with the spring and its surround
ings.
At such a time as this. idle rumors
regarding the purity of water, wheth-
er started with or without a purpose,
are liable to be mischievous if allowed
to go uncontradicted The Glenwood
Spring has a splendid record in this
community and one which not only
challenges comparison but will also
stand the fullest and closest investiga-
ton.
We have read the foregoing article
and fully endorse it's statements.

The annual report of the board of
railroad commissioners is now being
distributed by the clerks of the office.
The report has been fully described in
these columns, but it is not a repetition
to state that the publication is one of
the best and most complete ever issued
by the railroad department.
Another valuable state report is now
ready for distribution. 1t is the report
of Hon. Edgar e. Ring, state forest
commissioner, an abstract of which APP
peared several weeks ago. The book
is the handsomest and best ever issued
by the bureau, being embellished with
nearly so half tone Illustrations show
ing scenes in the Maine timber lands.
The report is very valuable and con-
tains a vast amount of information
concerning the amount of standing tim
Der in the forests of this state. The
book will be sent to those Interested in
the question of forest preservation on
application to Mr.. Ring at Augusta.
