Reasons Why Water Shares
Must be Secured Quickly

First Because the company is re-
placing a large wooden hume near
the Black Rock Canyon with an
expensive new Maginris steel flume
and must decide very soon upon
the capacity of that fume. If it
lis to supply other lands than those
now under contract larger size
must be built. So in order to meet
the public requirements for the
next few years the company MUST
KNOW AT ONCE how many
more acres want water.
Second-Because the company
cannot supply the ultimate de-
mand and SO many will be dis
appointed at the last.
Some land owners will fail to
see this notice and be left out.
Some will read this notice and
hesitate ard be left out.

political machine II has no equal. The
charges brought last week by Mr.
Fierson against Tammany are of such
a broad nature that they are sufficient
to bring on crisis in the present
campaign which Il really {. fight be-

Mr.. Barnard first attracted the at

his work in putting the Dolphin jute
mills of Paterson y. j., on their feet.
He was then called to the Continental

directly to the ousting of Bingham
from the police department, although
Bingham himself claims this was but
the excuse for deposing him and that

had been opposing Tammany.

keeps close trimmed, is now white.
His eyes are the most remarkable part
of his face. They are clear and
searching and always aimed directly

never looks down or sideways and the
freshness of his manner makes the
steady gaze of his eyes extremely dis
