GOOD? CHEAP WATER
IN A DRY MUNICIPALITY
EVERETT CITY WATER THAT
WAS EASILY THREE TIMES
TOO HIGH IN PRICE is RE-
DUCED TO THE MAGNIFI-
CENT EXTENT OF 10 CENTS.

The wonderful reduction in the price
of water has at last come. The former
charge of $195 a month for house of
seven rooms has been reduced to $1.S5.
1t ought to be, under municipal owner
ship, about fifty cents. Under socialism
it would be even less as water would
then be delivered as would everything
else at labor cost.
The whole public utilities commission
is a ten-cent proposition-about its real
worth to anyone but Stone, Webster and
itself.
To a man up tree with the hose
turned on him, it would seem that the
Stone, Webster people themselves had
suggested the slight reduction.
We can imagine the following CONVEX
sation between the people concerned at
the banquet table:
Really, now, dear fellow, those Everett
people are becoming peeved about their
water rates. Better drop the rates a
little and keep them quiet for a while" ;"
says Mr.. Stone Webster as he sips his
champagne.
"All right, old chappy, we'I hand 'em
a 1O-cent cut, don't you know" says
Mr.. Pub Utilities as he puffs his 25-cent
cigar.
ooh, you Fakirs!"
