And Then Put Through Last

Won't Stand for It.

The publication in The Press

tive heads at the city hall, in the
matter of the Lincoln Heights
reservoir, was the first intimation
the public received of nice
scheme that has been Matching for
some months.
he real reason of John T. Huet-
ter's delay in pushing the reservoir
work is at last unfolded, and the
public will now get another chance
to look on the inside of some more
masterful juggling at the city hall
The plan is to have Huetter re
tire from the present reservoir con-
tract, which he will gladly do, as
he has already learned that he has
bitten off larger chunk than he
intended to for the money in sight.
With Mr.. Huetter out of the way,
up pops Fife Brothers mud-fill res
ervoir, which the honorable gentle
men at the city hall says will save
$4,000.
Here are the facts: The solid
concrete wall type of reservoir is
approved by the most eminent hy-
draulic engineer in the country,
Professor William ii. Burr, to
whom the city of Spokane paid
81 600 to go over the Reuterdahl
plans. Professor Burr is on record
with the statement that the solid
concrete wall reservoir is much
preferable to the mud fill type, and
is the reservoir that is now being
built most generally over the coun-
try. The old reservoir at Ninth
and Grand, which is as good today
as when completed five years ago,
is of the solid type of construction
Fife Bros. injected their plan
into the reservoir debate year
ago as outsiders. They wanted
their bid considered, without the
water commissioner having even
passed on their plans. The ques-
ton of the two types of reservoir
