Saratoga builders are up against it
for lumber these days. For some
time previous to the arrival of the 5.
& E. road there was so little demand
for lumber that but little was kept
on hand. One reason for this was
the lack of local saw mills and the
other was the utter inability of the
railroads to haul lumber in, some
dealers having had orders in for from
three to six months, untitled because
the railroads could not haul it. The
scarcity of native lumber will soon be
relieved for we will have two, and
perhaps three, mills in operation
within the next thirty days, both in
the Sierra Madre range.

In another column will be found an
article on trout fishing, showing the
danger there is that our too enthusi-
astic fisherman will destroy this one
great attraction by we doing the
sport. The Sun is informed that some
of the sportsmen have been known to
make a catch of rs trout from some
of small streams, or the river,
and them throw them away. If this
is true then steps should be taken at
once to enforce the law. W. do know
that some men are such devotees
of the sport that they will not stop
when they have enough, or what can
be used, but continue on just as long
as they can get a rise. Moderation
should be practiced in trout fishing
just the same as anything else, or
Saratoga will find her boosted at
traction fading into thin air.

The Question of Water Works

Saratoga will now have to take uI
the proposition of water works in ear
nest. We must rot only have a wa
ter supply but we must have protec.
tion against fire. The Saratoga
Board Of Trade appointed a com
mitee at its last session, Thursday
the 18th Of July, to frame and pre-.
sent a memorial to the city council
setting forth the great need of water
works. The matter will no doubt re.
ceive prompt attention.
As both water works and a sewer.
age system are needed and as the
council will not be permitted to bond
the property of the town for but one
OF these projects, perhaps it would be
better to arrange with some private
individual, or corporation, to put in
a water system, under contract tc
sell to the town at a certain figure
within a specified time and let the
council bond the property of the town
and put in a sewerage system. The
town can handle one, but not both oil
these projects now. OF course the
time will soon come when we will be
able to swing them both with ease
But it would facilitate matters very
much If the town handled one pro.
jet and some private Individual OF
corporation the other.
