Ogden, July 30.-The purchasing of
the Ogden waterworks system by the

matters that will undoubtedly be con-
sidered by the city council at it's regu-
lar weekly session this evening. During

freely discussed by prominent citizens
ana public officials and all are unani-
nous in the opinion that the city
should purchase the system.
None of the officials of the water
works company have made any state
ment in regard to the reported sale to
the city other than to say that the sys-
TEN has been offered at a certain price.
II is also intimated thar the price which
Is set upon the system at the present
time by the company is very much
lower than what 1t will be in the flu
ture.
Another report is current that IL the
city does not signify it's intention to
purchase the system that an offer win
be considered from another soufcc.
