CONTINUED From Page ~

local plant for number of investors
and rejected the plant as financial
proposition. He said that Burlington
pumped about 100000 gallons OF
water daily for its supply to some
$500 patrons, while Ottumwa pumps
10000 gallons for 1,7O0 users. Rela-
tive to the old mains In the streets,
he said that they were about thirty
years in the ground and his expert
ence with similar pipe that had had the
same length Of service, showed 1t nee
essary to Gull out about twenty per
cent in relaying.
Wants Voters to Know.
w. T. Harper asked number OF
questions of the various speakers In
order that the public might have the
advantage of knowing all that could
be obtained regarding the water ques-
ton and thus be able to vote intelli-
gently when the matter will be sub
5mitted to the voters. He looked at
the proposition from the standpoint OF
purely a business transaction and
questioned the ACCESSIBILITY Of taking
the step proposed by the city council.
( The amount Of bonds necessary to f.
nance the proposition he thought
would bring the city to almost its
legal Indebtedness and said in that
event, some accident or unlocked for
happening might cripple the city to
handle the water works after purchase
without heavy taxation. He did not
view the matter as q safe business
proposition, but would not ally himself
A opposed to the project II it could
be proved to be safe. He urged the
securing OF expert knowledge from
hydraulic engineers other than what
hass been secured to the end that
nothing Of Importance to be known
of the matter be withheld from the
voters. Such report he urged should
BE made public before the matter Is
submitted to the voters.
Mayor Hartman said that the council
thought best that these figures should
not be made known until the contract
IL signed to protect the city ii legal
proceedings that might arise, and be-
cause it was desired to keep from the
water company any knowledge secured
about the plant, which the owners
claim they do not know of. After the
council meeting next Monday the de-
tails will be made public.
Foster Favors Plan.
q. D. Foster was called upon and
stated at the outset that he was in
favor OF municipal ownership OF the
water works from principle. He said
that he believed 1t to be a wise policy
and urged reasons why he favored
such q proposition. He commended
that to his idea of business tagacity
IN such an important matter, the coun-
eli did q good act and obtained the
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1910-10-13
