ID. M. West Calls II the Best Town
On the Santa Fe Brauct,, S,Ee
Considered,

Rev. d. M. West, preacher,
politician and practical news
paper man, was in the city from
Santa Anna Tuesday. Mr., West
was called home on the account
of the illness Of his wife and,
finding her much improved, in
tends returning to the Mountain
City today. Mr.. West, while u
citizen of San Angelo, owns the
Santa Anna News i'll which pro-
perty he has good paying pro-
position. He thinks that Santa
Anna has the brightest future of
any city ita size along the route
of the Santa Fs branch. 1t has
q problem before it now in the
matter of having outgrown it's
present facilities for procuring
water. The business men are
working on proposition to
organize a stock company for
the purpose of obtaining water.
Two ways are before them. One,
to dig, the other, to pump, Living
creek water is to be obtained only
six miles from the town, and wa
ter is to be found at small depth,
but many wells would have to be
sunk.
Santa Anna has recently dis
posed of the town cow proposition
and now has the matter OF in
corporation under advisement,
Mr.. West is of the opinion tina,
incorporation will benefit Santa
Anna and that that side of the
question will prevail.
The country around Santa Anna
is a very fine farming section
