With such premises in mind at this
time, council advised that it divide
proposition and questions into the fol-
lowing:
Q) The duration of the franchise.
(2) The right of the city to exam
inc into the present books and it's af-
fairs as we'll as in books and affairs
OF any other bidder.
90 Right of city to assign its pres
ent right to buy present system of
water works.
ca Right of such assignee to pur-
chase.
(5) Price to be fixed and what en-
| tiers into same, and
CO. Must city accept either of the
present bids, or could it reject both.
and re-advertise for bids.
And further divisions were made
pertinent, however, to subsequent
stages and withheld for further inves-
tigation and later advice.
Answer to question ONE: The
question Of duration of the franchise
I Is the most serious question confront
ing the city in the present proposi.
ton. AS the city may rest assured
that whether present company holds
or another acquires the franchise and
same is perpetual. such holder will be
prompted to and will take and receive
every return therein guaranteed him
AZ the furnishing Of the commodity IL
. practical monopoly, as the city il
constantly increasing In population
and ~ such population il each day be
coming more congested.

coincident with such changes, the city
should reserve the right to make its
investigations from time to time.
Answer to Questions Three and
Four: In answer to these questions,
same can be answered in one para
graph. The City has right to assign
it's option to purchase of system OF
the present company to another ind1-
vidual or corporation. And such as
signee will possess all rights the City
now has to purchase under the terms
of present contract, and at a price
fixed by appraisers pursuant to terms
of contract. Such assignee thereupon
succeeding to no more rights than
present company and being compelled
in order to enjoy use of such property
new franchise to operate under sub
seuuent to October l, 1912.
Answer to Question Five: The price
to be paid any purchaser, and equally
| we'll as a basis of a new franchise and
! contract, the valuation of the present
system is a matter of particular con-
Germ. In consideration of purchase
the present contract provides method
of ascertaining valuation; but in con-
sideration of contract with the present
company, or with any company pur-
chasing the present property. such
valuation is not SO fixed. The owner
has a right to receive Just and eQuit-
able return upon property by him sub
tected to the public use. but the city
is not required to accept owners arbi-
