ELSEWHERE in this issue will be
found the program for the celebra-
ton Of the Fourth Of July at
Enterprise. Although new town
and handicapped by all the obstacles
that usually beset the denizens of a
newly settled district, Enterprise
seems to contain some good fresh
blood that is full of bright crimson
cor puscles. and effervescing with pa.
triotism, and this year will set a
worthy example to many of the
larger towns of southern Utah. A
town that is too dead to celebrate
Liberty day is a back number and
unworthy of a noble ancestry!
Enterprise does not come within
this category.

ABOUT THAT RESERVOIR.

As we have heard considerable
fault finding in relation TO the res
ervoir that the city is constructing
at the head Of the water system, we
decided to visit the spot and judge
for ourselves in relation tc the matter
before we had much to say either
for or against the work-an example
that we think is worthy of imitation
by the critical portion of our fellow
townsmen, and women also as far as
that is concerned We found that
basin had been made against the
side of a ledge of rock, by blasting
off the lower portion of the ledge in
order to make the side more per-
pendicular than nature had formed
il. and building, about thirty-five or
forty feet away from its base, par
allel wall of rock about fifteen to
eighteen feet wide at the bottom,
and eight or nine feet wide at the
top, about twelve feet high and
over hundred feet long, with a
similar wall at the lower end. The
bottom of the basin is mostly rock,
with the exception of the side mex,
TO the wall that we have been de-
I4SSsg, which is composed of earth
me Net this quantity Nof ella,
and shase rock has been introduced
which it is the intention to mix into
mortar ia the bottom of the basir
with the expectation that it will
when properly tramped in, rende
it comparatively water-tight. The in
ner side of the wall that has beer
built, has been laid in lime mortar
aid it is the intention to plaster i
with cement; for which purpos'
nearly five tons have been procured
and il it is found that the bottom
cannot be made secure without, i
also will be cemented.
We see no reason why that res
ervoir should not be success i
the water is introduced gradually
and its effects closely watched as i
comes in contact with the wall ant
the bottom.
There is no doubt that better jot
could have been made il the city
had been in possession of a longei
purse, but under the circumstance
1T is doubtful if the job could have
been bettered. The site is par
ticularly good one, and we predic
that when this system gets in opera
ton not the least of its benefits viii
be the nice, cool water which The
pipes will afford during the heated
term, when a drink of cool water i
luxury to the thirsty citizen who
has not the wherewith to. supply hi
family with ice.
One OF the difficulties that w
think will have to be met will b.
the liability of the ditch that convey
the water to the reservoir 10 b'
filed with debris that will b,
washed down from the hills aloni
which it is made. and especially vii
this be the case wl-SNe small ravine
intersect il. However, It is not L
be expected that everything vii
work smoothly on the start, bu
ultimately there is no question tina
the difficulties will all be overcome
1t is the duty of US all TO give GU
public servants our support, and i
this is done all will be well.
We learn that it will not be man!
days before the water will be tnrne'
