that an exchange Of lrrigating water
from the citys canal with the farmers
who secured their supply Of water from
the streams mentioned was the only
feasible plan, and the committee then
proceeded to secure options from as
many of the farmers as possible, and
it succeeded in thus tying up one-half Of
the flow OF Big Cottonwood and part
OF Mil creek and Little Cottonwood.
Bond Issue Fought.
The question Of securing sufficient
money with which 10 carry the plan
into execution was no small matter,
and Il was determined to ask the citi-
Gems OF the city 10 vote on a bond
issue OF 100000, OF which amount
$3.50, goo was to be used IN the water
scheme and $4,000 for providing a
sewerage system for the southern part
of the city. Accordingly the commit
tee reported TO the council on Nov. II,
1904 recommending that n special bond
election be held on Dec. 20, The report,
which also contained a lengthy account
OF the work OF the committee and OF
the plan proposed for the Intended wa
ter and sewer improvements, was OPP
posed most bitterly by some OF the
councilmen, and every possible attempt
was made to defeat II, The fight re-
suited IN the report being laid over un-
III Nov. q, upon which date II was
adopted after the date of the election
had been changed to Jan. 3, 1906. The
