Mr.. Editor.
1t seems as though the people of
Honesuale pay enough watei rent to
ENABLE the Water company to have
someone to inspect the hre plugs all
over the town once a week 1t is
claimed BY several members OF one
hose company that If the fire plug
opposite Erik Bros. store had not
been frozen the fire could have been
pat out ten minutes after it was dis

not afford" to do 1t, 1t would be a
paying investment for the town coun-
ell, in the winter time at least. This
one lesson ought to be enough.
A KICKER.
Says All Lights Were Not Out.
Mr.. Editor:
| would like to state in regard to
the electric lights being all out ten
years ago, during the flood, as men
toned in a recent issue of the
Wayne Independent, that the electric
lights were not all out. They were
burning south of Park Lake dam.
A pole was swept away on the green
with the uptown wires, which ac-
counted for the lights going out
there. There was a 6x4x6 duplex
steam pump running under feet of
water In the cellar at that time. If
the pump had failed to work, then
the plant necessarily would have had
10 shut down, which was not the
case.

TIE AMENDMENT ELECTION

The result of the special election
held to. vote on the amendments to the
city charter is the best news that Hood
River has received in a long time. The
result clearly shows the practically
unanimous demand of the people for a
better water system and for much
needed Improvements. Their ballots
cast at the polls show that they are
behind the city council in its endeavors
TO better conditions.
The history of the endeavors to Sc
cure municipal water here covers a
long period, but the sentiment for it
has been constantly increasing until it
has reached the place as expressed in
Tuesdays election. On numerous
occasions the city has made efforts to
dispose of bonds for the purpose of
securing funds to install the water
plant, However, the brokers, their
attorneys finding defects in the char
ter, have always managed to see it
to turn down the purchases of the
issues. Now, the charter amended and
remedied wherever these defects oc-
CURED, it will be possible to dispose of
the bonds without trouble. The 500, 600
issue for the municipal system will be
taken care Of and the city council can
