MeNEisH's PLANS O. K.

City Engineer J. $. McNeish re turned yesterday from Fl Paso. where he has been in consultation with City Engineer Anderson, of that city, re- garding the plans and specifications of the proposed additions to the Bis bee water system. Mir. Anderson had little or no criticism to offer upon the blue prints over which Mir. McNeish has worked so arduOusly for the past few weeks. The trip was undenaken at tde instance of the city council. the idea being that two heads are better than one in a matter of such complicated details. IL is probable that the plans will be examined by still other experts.
