Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1909-1915, 1911-09-01

A petition has been issued by the
representatives of the various fire In
surance companies doing business in
Devils Lake, asking that contract be-
tween the Great Northern Ry. and the
Devils Lake Improvement Co., for Per
manent water connection be made.
Some weeks ago the Improvement Co.
connected the city mains with those of
the G. n running from Sweetwater,
but only for temporary use. Such a
permanent contract would be benefi-
cial to the city in case at excessive
water need in time of fire, and it is
hoped the G. n will concede perma-
nent contract The signers were:
A. NJ Powell, R. A Young, George W.
Mooers, c. A. Dodge, Henry Hale, C..
NJ. Fisher and Fred Traynor, who rep
resent several insurance companies
in this city.
