GLEND1vE has rejected her
waterworks system and Engineer
E. S. Bear and his associates are
apparently in a position to lose
some money on the contract which
they took a year ago. A test
showed the total leakage on the
system to be 1876 gallons Of water
per hour, and the city council, act
ing on the advice Of their expert,
L. P. Wolff, has ordered the con-
tractors to uncover a large portion
of the wooden pipes in the city
and either replace them or so re-
pair the joints as to reduce the
leakage to the limits required in
the contract. 1t is evident that
Dickinson is not the only place
experiencing delays in the COM
pletion of its. waterworks system.
1t is not believed that wooden
pipes will ever be very satisfactory
and herein, too, Dickinson will
be a long ways ahead of Glendive.
