COUNCIL CALLS ELECTION
FOR AUGUST 10 TO VOTE
BONDS FOR BUYING
OR BUILDING.
IT Is NOW UP TO PEOPLE
Municipal Ownership, Or Not, Is
AQuestion Soon To Be Set
tied In Dodge City.

The city council has taken definite
action on the waterworks proposition,
to the extent Of calling an election to
vote bonds for purchasing or con
structing works for supplying the
city with water and light. This act
ion was taken at an adjourned meet
ing Of the council on last Thursday
night. The time for holding the
ele.tion will be on August 10, and it
is now up to the people to have their
say in the matter. There is, appar-
emily no doubt that the bonds will
carry. The amount asked Tor is
100000, or SO much OF that sum as
may be necessary, the bonds to be
pay yable in thirty years
No further action has been taken
in the deal with the present water
company. The company was not
represented at the last meeting, and
the matter stands as il did with
$4,000, between the council and the
company on the purchase OF the
plant, Wheather the council and
the water company will get together
on the deal remains to be seen. Ii
the bonds carry, ii will then be up to
the council to decide whether to pur
chase the present plant or build a
new outfit Mr.. Theis, at a meeting
OF the council sometime ago stated
that he would be willing, on agree
ment with the council, to bring a
friendly suit, so that the court might
decide as to wbeather the company
has a franchise or not. II the coun-
Gil should buy the present plant this
would not be necessary, but ii they
should not buy it, such q suit would
have to be gone through with and it
would be advantageous to the city to
have the matter settled as quickly as
possible.
The official notice OF the election
appears in this issue, giving the vot
ing places for the different wards.
The citizens have talked great deal
in the past about the matter, and
they should take an interest in the
election and vote for what they be
lieve is for the interest OF the town.
From the expression heard for
some.months past. the sentiment ap-
pears to be strong for municipal own
ership. The citizens will have from
now to August 10 to study the
matter and decide how they want to
vote.

ANOTHER NICE RAIN.
This Year Is Certainly Making A Noise Like
Real Corn Year, In Ford County

Another fine shower Of rain came
last night, keeping up the record Of
just enough and not too much for the
corn crop. The weather beareau re
ports the rain Of Tuesday night .92 Of
an inch, and this will make the corn
boom for another two weeks. The
corn is in tassel in some places in the
county, and every where it is looking
very healthy and growing rapidly.
The prospect is better every week
for that 100000 bushels Of corn for
this county. that this paper has been
talking about.

COUNCIL ACTS FAvoRAeLY
IN WAY OF CONCESSIONS
Grants Low Rate'For Water, and Fixes.
Valuation at Equitable Figure For
Period Of Five Years - Promoters
Now Await Only Suitable Site Before
beginning Work. ~

The city council went on record in
special session this forenoon as favor
ing manufacturing institutions by the
granting of any CONCESSIONS within it's
power. BY it's unanimous action, with
but one absentee, the council made it
possible for the National Denatured
Alcohol Company to build in Marshall
town, and members of the new COM
pany said following the meeting that
all that vast now awaited, before be-
ginning, building operations, was the
selection and purchase of q favorable
site.
In a letter addressed to the mayor
and council, President Robert "A. Ely,
of the company, set forth the requests
of the company of the city. The COM
pany wants a cheap rate for water for
a period of five years, and an actual
valuation fixed of not to exceed $780,
900 for a period of five years. In re-
turn the company agrees to build a
plant for the manufacture of denatured
alcohol that will cost between $4,000
and $4,000.
| The concessions as requested were
granted on motion of Mr.. Hull, council
man at large. Mr.. Psenicka was abb
sent.
| Councilman Clark was the only mem
Der of the council who. appeared to see
anything at all out ofsthe way in the
city encouraging new manufacturing
industries by offering cheap water
Mr.. Clark, as chairman Of the water
works. committee, sees in the near fu-
ture an enlargement of the municipal
water works. because Of the constant
ly increasing demand for water. He
1 isn't able to figure out where the city
will land if there is very much more
of a drain on the water works. The
other members of the council hailed
with delight the coming of any, day
when, by an increase of manufacture
/ ing institutions, the city would be
compelled to enlarge its water plant.
i Mayor Ingledue urged the council te
4 take a broad stand in encouraging new
manufacturing institutions, and ex-
pressed himself as willing at any time
to give anything the city can legally
and within reason to help any new
