spected the source of the supply of water
at Twelve Mile bayou and the country
over which it is conveyed by canal or
ditch to Cross bayou
The trip was by tallyho. En- route one
Of the horses dropped dead in its tracks.
A pair OF mules were pressed into serv-
ice to meet the emergency
The conditions were surprising to
some Of the representatives of the city.
From their observation it may be con-
cluded that Clear lake as supply must
be eliminated. In this lake were many
dead fish resulting from the low stage of
the water and to the deposits of saline
matter draining from the wells in the
gas and oil district
This water question from all eye in
spectlon will give opportunity for an in
telligent discussion when the representa-
tives of the Waterworks Company and
of the city get together to devise ways
and means to secure speedy improve
ment OF present conditions
Mayor Bernstein expressed the Opin-
ion that with an expenditure of 5000 an
adequate supply of water from Twelve
Mile bayou may be obtained for tenn
rorary use.
As to the source of supply there is a
variance of opinion, but at this time The
Caucasian will refrain from its discus
sion. which has already been full on the
subject
II is immaterial where the supply is
obtained, provided it is wholesome. but
it is doubtful il water which is water
can ever be obtained except from els
terms, or from artesian wells. which are
being criticised as undesirable although
these have proven effective and satisfac-
tory in many communities and have been
and are being approved by those who
have tested their advantages in Shreve-
