The recent terrible calamity
that happened to Cottonwood, by
which the business district was
entirely consumed by fire, is
likely to happen to any wooden
town so situated. 1t seems that
a water system, after a years
wrangle and bubble about
necessity, cost &c, was about"
to be installed. This foolish
bubble about whether a town is
ripe" for a water system
always comes just before fire,
in which at least a dozen men,
individually, lose more than
enough to build the entire
system. -0rofno Tribune.
