An actual measurement of the sup.

Saturday, after the well had been con-

showed that the estimate of over one

conservative. Actual measurement
makes it considerably over that guam

reservoir today. The other two wells
will now be piped and tested, and
made ready for regular service.

Elsewhere in this paper will be
found communication derogatory
to Westrumite. OF course it does
not reflect our position, but as the
Review is ever open for discussion
of any public question we give it
place. The argument II advances
has been threshed out and it is a
waste of space to refute it. We do
not blame the Bitulithic people for
making the fight of their lives for
the business supremacy they now
enjoy, particularly since it was
while experimenting with Bitulithic
that Mr.. VanWestrum discovered
the happy combination which
makes Westrumite so much SUI
perior, IL is claimed, to Bitulithic,
and endangers If properly promoted,
the business prosperity of the lat
ter. Anyhow Westrumite has won
out aud the time for argument is
past. II doesn't take many dollars
to secure testimonials and statements
from some people. We have more
confidence in Our own citizens than
in any letters that might be written
by eastern parties at a competing
company's dictation or otherwise.

follows:
The council of the city of St. Johns,
having ascertained the cost of improv-
ing Chicago street from the easterly side
line of Jersey street to the westerly side
line of Portland Boul. in the city of st.
Johns, as shown by the resolution
of the council of said city dated on the

St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1911-03-31

This city is making a grave mis-
take in not having a sewer inspec'
tor constantly on the job, Five
years ago Il cost the property own
ers more than $1,000 because a com.
petent inspector was not in evidence,
That was a small job, aud the pres
ent one is a big one. With un.
skilled laborers laying pipe under
tunnels, where II is easier To lay
pipe little out OF line than il is to
lay il straight, who knows what
we are getting and how soon II will
have to be torn upl II would not
be surprising il all or a greater por-
tion OF il will have to be relaid
within the next few years, Every
thing is left to the honesty of the
contractor, Surely an Inspector is
needed right NOW Gentlemen of
the council, don't allow another
meeting to pass by without making
arrangements for one, Don't let
the sewer be laid on Jersey street
until this is done,
St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1911-03-31

We believe the council acted has,
tily aud without due consideration
when they passed an ordinance
Tuesday night compelling all prop
eTty owners 10 connect with the
sewers laid within 90 days from
date of notice, The time is toe
short. To connect all property
with the sewer pipe in 90 days
would mean to lay more sewer
pipe in 90 days than has been laid
all winter and last fall, Those en-.
gagged in laying sewer here could
form trust and boost the price to
81 per foot. There would be more
work than all could do, because
most people, on account OF the low
state OF their finances, would put
the laying off until the last minute.
The bonding act cannot be taken
on connections, Portland gives
only a short time to connect after a
sewer is completed, but in that
city competition is greater aud the
whole city does not have to connect
at one time as is the case here.
We believe Councilman Dobie was
right when he held out for six
months instead of two, but he was
alone in the contention, IL will
take an average of about 90 feet OF
pipe per lot to connect up, aud it
costs money to fill the old cesspools.
Can the people make arrangements
for this in two monthsl We can
not very well see how discrimina-
ton can be made in giving notice
TO connect, AT least very little
difference can be made in time.
Perhaps we do not look at this from
the right point of view, and our
views may be wrong, but it seems
TO us that il is giving the sewer
layers too much power, and the
owners too little chance to
raise the money.

Some of the street contractors in
St. Johns are making themselves
liable for suits for damages on ac-
count of depositing old stumps on
private property without permis-
sion from the owners. A party
from Portland, who was injured in
this manner, is getting ready to
make trouble. Contractors should
exercise a little more care in this
regard in the future. They have
no more right TO deposit debris on
private grounds than has the dray-
man.

The city engineer has waived his
objections to having Westrumite
laid on Jersey street. This was q
wise move on his part. While II
would have been better to have
done this sooner, the delay occa-
stoned by his rebellion is not dan.
gerous. Westrumite will be laid,
in accordance with the wishes of
the property owners, Mr.. Andrew
is to be congratulated upon chang.

Pile. His reputation will not suffer
in the least whether Westrumite is
good or bad.
