The Capital Water Committee. ap.
pointed by the Salem Board of Trade
and the Salem Business Men S
League, has for the past II months
made exhaustive Investigations into
the needs and possibilities of grayi-
ty water system from the Cascade
mountains to secure pure water for
public and domestic use to meet the
growing needs of our city and the
public institutions located here, and
has arrived at the following conclu-
sions:
/. The committee finds that the
needs Of our rapidly growing city de-
mand that we secure q source of sup
ply that will furnish the purest water
obtainable, and at the same time give
us a sufficient quantity to not only
meet the present needs of our city.

2. The city should acquire by
purchase or otherwise the existing
water plant, or one of sufficient ca
pacity to serve as a distributing sys-
tenn for such pipe line as may be
constructed from the mountain
source.
3. We believe this matter should
at the earliest possible date be sub
mitted to a vote of the people, au.
thorizing a bond issue of sufficient
amount to acquire and construct such
system extending to the Breiten-
bush river.
4. Either the city should at once
proceed to acquire the necessary
rights of way and the authorization
from the federal government to en-

lection of same until such time as

quality as It is possible to obtain any
where. It is an ideal water supply
for a population many times larger
than that of the city of Portland.
Should It be decided to use this
supply we understand that the gov
ernment will protect us in the use Of
the watershed, and that alone is of
untold value to any city, but we are
also convinced that If we wish to
avail ourselves of this supply we can
not afford to daily with the PROPOSE
ton, as It is not unlikely that the
land adjacent will be occupied soon
er or later, and any protection to the
water supply would be removed, or
would have to be purchased at excess
sive cost.
We are firmly convinced that the
water could be piped to this city,
plant constructed and covering the
entire city, without excessive burden
being passed upon the taxpayers. We
believe that the growth of the city
is such that within five years after
the installation of the system, when
the water is flowing, that IL will eth
er begin TO pay for itself or practical
ly SO.
The estimate of construction of the
pipe line to the Breltenbush, includ-
ing reservoirs and purchase of the
local plant, is $1,251,355.
We earnestly recommend immedi-
ate action on this matter, as the good
name of the city is at stake, and
growth is stagnated. Respectfully
