large factor In the comfort Of tho citizens
and their visitors and patrons. That any
lingering echo Of tho late unploasansness
through which tho city passed In It's siren

should manifest itself in such . malicious
injury to tho whole community seems
hardly bslievabis. The fact that the city
administration was Just now rejoicing In
tho sense Of difficulties overcome In the
matter Of our city water supply. may
have aroused the dormant enmity Of
some Individual who could not forgive the
publie's interference with easy access tc
his favorits beverage. The city govern
