IHE MATTER OF A WATER SUPPLY, Hon.
William T. Haines of Waterville. accomnan;ed
by Mr.. Garland, civil engineer, was in the
city Tuesday looking over the matter of a
water supply. Mr.. Haines has returned to
WaterVllle, but Mr.. Garland remains for fur
Their investigation. Mr.. Haines has charter
for company to supply water to the towns of
STOCKTON Springs and Searsport and the city of
Belfast, and owns the Searsport plant, which
obtains its supply from Boyd Lake, as does
Stockton Springs This lake is 1926 feet above
tide water, sufficient elevation to supply this
city by the gravity system, and the water is
said to be exceptionally pure. It is now piped
one mile this side of Searsport village and it
would require five miles of pipe to bring the
water into this city. If Belfast is to be sup
Piled the present s-inch pipe will be replaced
by Pinch pipe to the lake Whether this
consolidation can be effected remains to be
seen, but if reasonable terms can be had from
the Belfast Water Company the deal will go
through. In that event the present pumping
station and reservoir at Little River would be
| abandoned. Mr.. Haines says there should be
| an additional standpipe to ensure sufficient
supply in case of fire, and that might be placed
on the east side. The bringing of the water
across the river he said was very easy under
taking.
