BETTER SERVICE NEEDED,

There is always to be made an
allowance for the troubles which
come to the operation of large
corporations, especially in this
country, whore it is so far from the
source OF all machinery supplies,
and where competent labor is so
scarce. Yet with all due allowance
there comes a time when forbearance
and patience ceases to be a virtue
and that time has about come with
the citizens Of Amarillo, in connec-
ton with the service rendered them
by the Amarillo Water, Light &
Power Co.
Some time ago, when the company
broke a pump, and had to await
inexpensive arrival of a new pump,
the company notified its patrons that
they would be without water only
during certain hours and they
provided themselves and waited
patiently for repairs.
An entire month has passed since
this accident, and it was reasonably
SUPPOSED that the company was
prepared TO furnish water regularly,
but for the past week, water has
been SMUT off any old time, without
warming to patrons to the great
Inconvenience of the general public
which In this city has come to use
city water almost exclusively.
Tho Daily Panhandle is not a
Kicker, but it thinks the time has
arrived when the city authorities
should step in and demand regu-
lar and adequate water service for
the sonyenience and necessities of
Ithe people, Of the Water &c Light
! Co. II the present company is going
to be unequal to the necessities OF
the growing city, then other ar
rangements should be made for
sufficient storage of water to last
the city for some time. when
accidents, which will occur have to
be met,
Something should surely be done
and that at once, to remedy the
present trouble. s.a,......,e 4,
