UNDER WAY
Plans for Water System
 About Complete

The plans for the municipal water system are about completed, and the for bids on the ditching will be published soon. It is proposed that the work shall be completed before the first frosts of winter shall appear, and the city will provide for it's own protection by taking bond for specific performance of contracts from those who may enter into them.
 Some changes are being made in the contract with the railroal which pro- vided that the same might be cancelled after six months notice upon the city. The new provision will require the railroad to do the pumping for one year anyhow, after which time the six months notice clause may become oper- ative.
 The departare of J J Daly for Seat tie to buy the material for the plant, as has already been reported in the Daily Alaskan, was reported to the council last night.
 The intention is that the water rates will be as low as consistent with good service and the expense, These will not be higher than at the present charged by the Northwest Light & Power Company, and they might be much lower. That is matter about which the committee has no disposition to commit itself at the present time, as it depends so much upon the result of the amount of business that might be secured.
