According 70 the report Of the railroad
chemists the water from the city's sta
ton on Clay Greek Is the best found
anywhere in the valley, and the only
question to be considered is the sufficien-
cy Of the supply. This can only be def
nitely determined by the expenditure Of
several thousand dollars, and the citv's
finances will MOI permit this unless the
bonds are carried fsvorsbly on next
Tuesday. None Of the money except
what il needed for development work
will be used until q sure &c URGE Of sup
ply is obtained, and we believe that all
taxpaying voters should come out on
Tuesday, July 9th, and cast favorable
ballot for the bonds. The polls will be
open from a. m. to p. m. at the regu-
lar voting places
