hydrant was not in good working order
AS taxpayers they claim they are an
integral part of the body polite with
whom the Contra Costa Water Com
pany has a contract to supply water

deemed breach OF. that contract, for
which they would hold the company
responsible.
A general and specific demurrer was
made to their complaint, which the

gave a judgment for the water COM
pany with costs. AS precedent for this
he quoted a decision handed down in
the case of Ukiah City against the

pect clear stream of water all times
of the year from their taps I0r culinary
purposes. Mr. Kelsey VIII be put ln
charge OF the laying of The pipe and
VIII also inspect tie entire waite" IS
tenn and give advice for some time. II
is believed that possibly the council
VIII make an experiment IA the way OF
. Junneling the mountains near these
springs for water, as it is believed that
IL Is just as likely for the city 20 set
water from this mountain As IL was 1or
the coal company at Morrison o. set
that the water from the springs in
question will for time at least, sup
ply our citizens but the desire ot our
city fathers is TO get larger supply
so that possibly the water can BE- used
for all purposes around the homie,
