Make II Definite

The time for connection with the
sewer system on the part Of the
property owners is still in an TIN
satisfactory state. A recent ordi-
nance stated that all must connect
within sixty days after being noti-
fed so to do by the chief of police.
An amendment, or rather, a new
ordinance, giving six months time
after notification passed to third
reading Tuesday night and will
likely reach final passage next week.
But neither provides any definite
time when the chief shall notify the
people to connect. He may do it
this year, next year, or the year
after, so far as the instructions go.
The city attorney states that each
property owner must be notified
individually by the chief under the
provisions of the present ordinance
in force or the one under way of
passage Can the chief discrimi-
nate in this matter2 After one
sewer district is completed is it not
right that each property owner af-
fected shall receive notice to
connect as soon as his neighbor
Can the chief make one hasten and
give the other more timer II is
true that the board OF health can
force any one to connect with the
sewer Immediately il il is found
that his cess pool is defective or a
disease breeder, but many of the
property owners have good cess
pools and are unable to connect on
a two months notice. II is human
nature to wait, in cases Of this kind
until notified before taking any
steps to provide for payment there
of Therefore the extension of six
months is deemed advisable. The
prime object of Fastening the sew.
er construction in the grst instance
was to protect our water system.
The many cess pools surrounding IL
must eventually find passage into
the source of the city's water sup
ply. Can any board Of health tell
when that will be3 And what can
be done after the water supply has
become contaminated 2 No injury is
apparent to the board Of health or
TO any other body or individual un.
III after the injury has been done.
IL Is too late then TO remedy the
evil after disease has become ram
pant on account of contaminated
water, which will ever thereafter,
despite all precautions, be con
stant source Of danger. Now is the
time to get busy The Burlington
Street sewer has been completed,
as has also the Philadelphia Street
sewer. Why not pass the six
months limit ordinance next week,
aud make Il incumbent upon the
chief OF police to AT ONCE notify
the property owners in each dis
trict TO connect up within six
months. Don't leave the time OF
notification indefinite. According |
TO some OF the reports we have
heard, the Burlington street sewer
may not be much better than the
cess pools, yet Il will divert the
the seepage course and prevent the
the sewer filth from communicating
the city water. The matter Is wor-
thy of immediate action.

Another Gusher for Cloverport.

Cloverport KY, Feb. 1.-THE Ohio
River Gas and Oil Company successors
to the Kentucky and Indiana Gas
Company, struck a fine flow of gas

in the West End last week. Mr.. Ia
que, the manager, says 1t is a good
we'll and will be better whom they put
a shot of glycerine down to open DIT up.
which they will do in day or two.
Everybody in this town is glad over
the strike in this we'll. 1t means more
gas for the consumers and more rev.
enue for the company. 1t also means
chat other wells will be put down not
only for gas but for oil. 1t means the
spending of a big sum of money by
the company to thoroughly test the
tMitory.
This new company has faith in
this field. They say 1t is one of the
bast in Kenaucky for both gas and
oil They believe it so strong that
they are going to heat it at the point
of thedril If they have TO go 1000
feet rs..
This town will yet wake up some
fine morning and find herself rich
in gas and oil and many other things
they had not thought of. Here's to
