Woman Forced to Garry Water
Mrs. H. F. Bracey, 04521 Martha
street, pays the penalty of having
to carry water from a neighbor
because of having incurred the i'll
will of Jones. She was cut off for
alleged violation of the water rules,
and when she refused to pay the 81
fine the water service to her resi-
dence was severed. Yet the Jones
company continued to accept her
money and permit her to get water
from the home of a neighbor, and
her water rent under this basis is
now paid until October /.
Hauls Water From Spring
H. ]. Mason, 1907 East Hoffman
avenue, who was cut off and his
service dug out because he would
not pay what he calls an unjust
fine, now has his water hauled
from a spring at the river near
Minnehaha, two miles away.

son. During August he shut off
101 consumers and made them pay
fines of 81 each, making a nice
thing for the company. This was
done under a plea of having used
water out of hours, when at all
times the water was inadequate
for lawn and domestic use, even
when the force was at its best.

when Mayor Pratt was running
for office last April he promised
the people of the Cannondale dis
trict that he would give them city

and we are beginning to think that
Jones has more influence than the
people of Cannondale."
Keep Still or Be Fined
Henry Knepp, E152S South
avenue, says: The manner in
which we people are treated by
the Jones water company is an
outrage, but we are powerless to
. help ourselves. If We say word
some iniquitous fine is imposed
on us, which we must pay or be cut
off entirely from water. Jones
knows this and consequently he
feels that he has right to ride
roughshod over us. Our only hope
is from the city, but they are awful
ly slow in getting started"

the fact that A. d. Jones, in tearing
