and because the lgislature does not
get down to business, members ask
to be relieved from committees for
the expressed reason of i'll health. but
the real reason that neither the SEN
ate nor the house pays the slightest
attention to the recommendations of
the committees to which the bill is
referred.
All this time the republicans of the
legislature are making hay and the
republican leaders who are not in the
Legislature are perniciously active in
helping stack that hay. Even mem
bers of ne federal brigade" are pret-

Gratis are running round in circles
talking about the good of the state,
about the good OF the party, keeping

1t is up to democrats to get busy,
To do some real democratic politics
and do ii right away. Democrats
should be protected where they are
entitled to protection. Democratic
measures promised the people last
lall must be passed to laws and the
petty considerations that so far have

in this legislature should be forgot

This is republican state and if
this Democratic legislature fails to
keep the party promises: fails to
stand together for the democracy of

the party will go down to defeat in

The city water is not to be nut to

BY vote of four TO three, the city

Clark said he dreaded the prospects
of the calamity of a bad fire, and he
suggested that the report of the cit

Herman, aroused by this. declared
"The reports are there if anybody

Intimating. rather than directly
charging, that Mayor Ingledue had
been negligent in securing bids for the
100000 gallon steel water tank for the
city. the contract for which has been
let for $500 and that he had not sup
piled specifications to all the prospec-
tive makers who had applied for them,

advertised the letting of the contract
Councilman George Herman made an
unsuccessful attempt to have the action
of the council in awarding the work
rescinded.
In the attempt the Fourth ward
councilman locked horns with the
mayor. who frustrated his effort by
ruling him out of order. Today Her
man is threatening to start injunction
proceedings to stop the tank building.
Tank Unnecessary, Says Herman.
Hermans arguments against the
tank We're that it was unnecessary, and
was not needed, and that with an eN-
pensive dam to be built the city could
not afford it. He intinated that he
"smeled u rat" in the manner in which
the mayor went about securing bids
for the tank. This intimation he back

duced in council, and in which it was

he gathered up the letters and went

"All right I've no objections to that"
answered Ingledue
Tank Authorized May 10.
| According to the records Of the coun-
Gil proceedings, a resolution, introduced
by Clark at the meeting on May 10, OF
this year, instructed the mayor and
water works committee to select site
and prepare plans and advertise for
oids on the tank.
The same council meeting authorized
the mayor to receive bids for con-
denser for the engine in the city light

At the council meeting of June IA
three bids, those of A. E. Shorthill

could prevent 1t. His resolution recited
that a ditch had been dug in Pierce's
park and pipe had been purchased
without the knowledge of the council
leries, therefore the mayor be instruct
ed to fill the ditch and send back the
pipe.
Clark Gives History.
The request of Good that he would
like to have more light on the subject,
together with his suggestion that per-
haps Clark, the chairman of the wa
terworks committee, could explain,
brought out an explanation from that
councilman's standpoint. Turnout his
recital Clark repeated emphatically
that he did not want the galleries con-
nected with the city mains. and did not
intend that they should be, unless the
water in them was found to be pure
by analysis. He said it all came about
by the complaint of Hans Madsen, the
engineer at the pumping station, that
more water was being pumped from
the reservoir in the day time than
could be replaced at night, and he said
plan whereby the city could get 100000
or 100000 gallons a day at a small cost.
This Clark said was several weeks ago,
and he forgot about it until later.
Visit Made to Park
Still later Clark said. he, Mayor In
gledue. Councilman McCarten and Su-
perintendent of Mains Mack and Mad
sen went to Pierce's park. Madsen. he
said. was still very insistant that he
should have more water, but that he
did not propose to connect the CALLER
les, but only put valve in so that in
case of an emergency the additional
supply could be secured by opening the
valve and getting water from them.
Clark continued that the question of
the water supply was brought up by
him at a caucus, attended by four of
the councilmen. and that it was agreed
that if the emergency arose, such as
a big fire, that the galleries would be
connected
Wait For Analysis.
1t was agreed the First Ward coun-
Gilman said. that nothing should be
done until an analysis of the water WIS
made. He said he saw the mayor after
the analysis was made and he told him
nothing more should be done. for While
thu analysis did not show the water IL
be bad. il was stale. He said Herman
wanted him to sign a remonstrance
asanst making the connection. but lie
refused to do so because the work on
the proposed connection had already
been stopped.
Herman Takes Hand.
When Clark had finished Herman
said. Il see that Clark acknowledge
hat the water is no good. That is
plain enough a reason that the galleries

both the city clerk and mayor the lat
ter had not even replied to the letters.
Makes Motion to Reseind.
Herman, before he made his motion
to rescind the letting of the contract,
said that the city had about $4,000 net
a year from the water works depart
ment with which to pay for a $4,000
dam and an $4,000 tank. 81 thought
continued Herman, "that we ought to
do something-build one or the other
While we can't get away from the dam
we can get away from the tank"
After the motion to rescind the con-
tract entered into by the mayor and
city council with the Des ,Moines
Bridge and Iron Works. had been Of
fered, Clark suggested that 1t might be
all right if the Des Moines firm was
willing to hold off on the contract until
next spring.
Willing to Pay Damages.
Herman. in arguing further for his
motion, said that if the councils action
was rescinded all the Des Moines COM
pany could collect would be it's actual
expenses to date. He thought thai
would not be over 800. Besides" he

Psenicka wanted legal advice, and

Herman had stated the law about cor
rectly, and that all that was collectable
was the actual damages sustained.
"WFo Set Money Aside" Herman.
Good said. "the proposition DOM
strike me a little bit" He was sure
that the city was bound by the contract
and it could not settle for $780, He
wanted a committee appointed to see
the Dies Moines firm and find out If il
| would be willing to hold off on the con-
| tract.
Mayor Ingledue then ruled Herman
out of order, quoting from the city's

have been rescinded by three-fourths

passed Or at the first meeting after
