Row Over Water Works Plant
Causes Supply to Be
Shut Off
PRESENT OWNERS WON'T PLAY
Plant Has Passed Thru Many Hands
Since Its Construction Fifteen Years
Ago-Has Never Paid Expenses But

Enters Into Situation.
Special to Times-Republican.


Indianola, March 2.-Indianola Is
aroused over the action of the water
works company, which today shut
down the only source of water supply
in this city. The order came from the
Missouri company of capitalists, who
recently gained control of the plant,
down by the council when represent
tative of the company made certain
demands upon the city clerk, which
they refused to grant
The water works was constructed
here about fifteen years ago, at a cost
of $4,000. An injunction was issued
against its construction when the first
shovelful Of dirt was dug, and since
then, altho it has changed hands sew
eral times, 1t has never been out OF
the courts.
The litigation threw the plant back
onto the shoulders of George G. Nor
gan, of Chicago, the contractor, and
ruined him financially. There was
never anything wrong with the plant,
the quality of water being the cause
of the greatest kick. When Mr.. Nor
gan turned the plant over to the bond
holders, it was again turned back to
the city to operate and was offered to
the city at $4,000 less than the first
price.
The city would not accept it and for
a few years it was operated by Ed II.
Hunter, of Des Moines. who was APP
pointed receiver. Later the Chicago
people allowed this city to run the
plant, which they did without giving it
any particular care or attention, and
about two years ago local company
took it over and spent several thous-
and dollars in improvements. They
were met with all injunction by land
owners on the river, who objected to
a dam being built to guarantee suf-
ficient water supply. and were also CIV
