WATER SUPPLY.
FIFTH. In the event the pres
ent water capacity as it now ex-
lists, to-wit, the water now flow
ing from the various springs into
the reservoirs at the pumping
station, and from the present
artesian wells located at the
pumping station, shall be found
to be insufficient and inadequate
to meet the demands of the city,
and the present water supply @by
reason of the increased popula-
ton and demand for water con-
sumption, or for any cause what
ever, is insufficient or inadequate,
said party of the second part is
to develop whatever water is
needed or required for water ser
vice, either by developing other
and new springs, or by boring
additional wells, or otherwise,
the entire expense of the same
to be borne by the party of the
second part, and the water so
developed, if by springs, is to be
delivered in, or as near as practi-
cal, to the reservoirs at the pres
ent pumping station site, and if
other artesian wells are to be de-
velOped, same must be as near as
practicable to the present artesian
wells and present pumping sta
ton. The intention and agree
ment being, that the said party
of the second part is to furnish
water to the party of the first
part at or near the present pump
ing station for water service dur
ing the continuance of this con-
tract, at the expense of the par
ty Of the second part. In the
event, however, the water sup
ply in the future is deemed in
adequate, and it shall be more
practicable for the City to furnish
the necessary water at a reason
able cost to it at some other loca-
ton other than the present
pumping station site, satisfactory
to the parties Of the first part, a
reasonable and equitable adjust
ment of the rights of both par
ties to this contract shall be
made.
1t is further agreed that in the
event it is desired by the parties
of the second part to sink other
artesian wells at or near the
present pumping station, the
parties Of the first part agree
that the water from the artesian
wells is to be pumped or lifted
by the parties of the first part.
