MASS MEETING TONIGHT.
Has Awakened Much Interest and a
Large Assemblage of Citizens is
Assured-The Mountain
Water Question to
Rt. Discussed.

This evening at the Auditorium. at
the hour of eight o'clock, the mass
meeting called by the president of
the chamber of commerce at the re-
quest of number of citizens, for the
purpose of discussing and obtaining
information upon the question of
constructing a mountain water sys-
tenn and the issuance of 100000 in
bonds, will be held and 1t is safe to
predict that one of the largest ga
therings that has marked mass
meeting held for any purpose in the
city in several years Will assemble at
the Auditorium tonight.
Although those in opposition to
the mountain water proposition ask
ed for the meeting and objected to
the chamber of commerce calling up
on the city council or the special
water committee to make an official
report or statement at this meeting
those who are supporting the bond
issue and standing by the council in
It's action have. in every instance eX-
pressed themselves as being willing
and pleased that mass meeting has
been called.
The meeting will be presided over
by ATTORNEY Henry h. Rhone. who
was selected for this purpose by the
chamber of Commerce and there is
no question but what Mr.. Rhone will
make a satisfactory and impartial
chairman.
The call for the meeting. made by
the chamber of commerce and pub
lished by the Sentinel last Saturday
states that no vote shall
be taken upon any motion or resolu-
tion for or against the proposed
water system or the source
of supply of water therefor. Further
more no personalities shall be allow
ed to be INDUCED in by any person
or persons and all addresses shall be
limited to five minutes.
All taxpayers and citizens interest
ed in the city's welfare should at
tend this mass meeting which promis-
es to prove one of the most interest
ing gatherings of its kind ever held
in Grand Junction.

CAN YoU HESITATE?

There are more reasons than one
for the assertion that Grand Junction
must have new water supply. The
turning of the best waters of the
Gunnison river into the Gunnisbu
tunnel may be the leading reason but
there are others.
These same reasons argue most
eloqucntly for mountain water from
such n source as the city council de-
sires to secure It..
Some of these self same reasons al
so make plain that TO change from
the Gunnison to the Grand river, as
some citizens strongly desire, would
not be bettering conditions to n very
great extent.
Have you stopped to think during
this mountain water campaign, that
every spring there comes TO the
health authorities complaints regard
ing the carcasses of dead cattle and
horses and sheep in the Gunnison
and Grand Rivers?
For instance, about three months
ago DIR. Tlindd Parker, the county
and health officer. receiy-
ed II letter from the secretary of state
board of health Informing him that
the board had been advised by a
citizen of this city that one mile
aDoNe Drtnu junction in the Grand
River there piled carcasses of 500
sheep, and also that in the Gunnison
river between Delta and Grand june
tion there were Mt least fifty carcasses
of cattle. The state board declared If
such conditions existed the health of
those using the water for drinking
purposes was menared.
:. This condition prevails to a more
or less extent nearly every year. of
course the rivers are cleared of such
carcasses as speedily as possible but
you rather have the city
water supply corpin, from source
where such conditions could not pre-
vail?
Isn't this reason in itself sufficient |
10 convince every citizen that to vote
against the mountain water bond |
issue is voting against the city's best
interests?

LITTLE BOY INJURED.

Yesterday afternoon about four o.
clock the little son of a Mr.. Jack
son. who resides on Hill avenue near
Sixth street, was seriously injured in
rather peculiar accident The
boy who is about nine years old had
been playing with some other child
ren near Sixth and Gunnison. About
four o'clock lady noticed a boy lay
ing in the ditch in which there was
no water running, apparently life
less, she with several of the neigh
bors ran to the boy and found that
he was in an unconscious condition
and efforts to revive him were fruit
less. He was found laying directly
under a rope swing which was tied to
tree over the ditch and from which
he had evidently fallen. The child
was carried into a residence and the
father summoned. 1t was quite a
while before the boy was partially
revived and an hour or more till he
was completely restored to conscious.
ness. He was badly bruised about
the body and had evidently struck
the ground on his head being rem
dered Unconscious. He could not
tell how the accident happened. AL
though there We're number of child
rem in a yard nearby playing none
saw the boy fall from the swing and
he did not utter acry. He has not
fully recovered.

HERES ANOTHER PROPOSITION

One of the leading business men
and one of the best known citizens of
the city and valley in an CONVEX
sation with the Sentinel man this
morning that he sincerely believed
1t would have been a good idea for
the city council, before 1t definitely
settles upon a source of supply for
mountain water, to spend a few hun.
dred dollars If needed, in an investi-
cation of the amount of water thai
could be secured from subterranean
springs under the rimrock of the
Grand Mesa. The gentleman is of
the opinion that council would find
that these springs would afford an
unlimited supply of water the purity
and quality OF which would be abo-
lutely above question. as it is well
known that such water is never eX-
celled in quality and purity. From
personal investigations the gentle
man believes that such water is there
in abundance and he believes that
Grand Junction could secure the nee
cessary rights, erect pipe line and
system that would bring that water
to the city for a cost not to exceed
$3.50, 900 to 100000. He states
that he has personal knowledge of
towns in New Mexico and other stat
es that secure an Unlimited and salts
factory supply from similar sources
that he does not believe are near so
favorablely situated as the springs
under the Grand Mesa rim rock.
Ouray, Colorado gets her water
supply from underground springs,
having found the supply much more
than that secured for a
time from an open stream.
The gentleman suggested that
Grand Junction and Palisade might
go intogether and get water from
these subterranean springs.

to the Fourth street side Of the room,
and is surrounded by "coops''
. Beginning at the first window on the
left, a tax statement may be obtained
and pursuing his way around the cor
