The Water Question

What is considered by many the
most important proposition which
the voters of Friday Harbor have
had to consider. will occur Decem-
Der 8. when the matter Of bonding
the city for the purpose of install
ling water system will be decided.
There are few. if any. who do not
believe that system of some kind
would be of great convenience, q
safeguard in case OF fire. and an In
centive to prospective industries,
settlers or investors.
The objections which are heard
are, in the main, THAT "they''
haven't gone about it in the proper
way. 2-That the system cannot
be installed for the amount voted
for. 3-That the water isn't fit for
domestic use.
Of course there are other reasons
of a personal nature which would
impel some to oppose it. There are
private wells. and private water
systems capable of supplying many
families which have been installed
at considerable cost, and it is not
reasonable to suppose that owners
of these would be very enthusi astic-
ally in favor of that which would
hinder their business and add to
their expense.
But to those who haven't wells,
or systems, and who feel that public
veal is more important than private
concern. these objections are not
good and should not stand.
And as to the first objection that
''they" didn't start the matter
properly. it may be stated that no
individuals could carry out a pro-
ject of this kind from its incipiency
without mistakes and to the salts
faction of any great number of peo-
pie. 1t never has been done, nor
could it be, no matter who the
'they" might happen to be.
And as to the second objection
the cost-there are those who stand
ready to bring the water to the
foot of Spring street for an amount
less than the sum to be voted for.
And as to the purity of the wat
err. it may be said that it is as clear
as crystal and considered by those
who have seen and tested samples.
| to be much better than water being
used by many cities to-day. Bell
ingham is using Lake Whatcom
water, which is not so good by far.
and yet is satisfactory.
The fact that the system will be
self-sustaining from the start is a
factor which should also weigh with
all voters.
The ordinance which has been
prepared was submitted to Judge
Jeremiah Neterer of Bellin ham,
who says unqualifedly that the city's
rights in the matter are certain,
and says that by act of the legislat-
ure cit is lawful for any city or
town in this state to take. condemn
purchase, acquire and retain water
from any public lake or water
course, within the state. +"
He further says "the ordinance
seems to comprehend all the re-
quirements of the statute"
/ So that from any viewpoint OF

The Mass Meeting

The meeting at the Court House
Tuesday night, for the selection of
candidates for city councilmen and
treasurer, was the most largely atten-
ded of any public meeting of like nat
ure for many day. It was without
doubt due to the interest which is
being taken in the city's affairs, per-
tanning more particularly to the mat
ter of obtaining permanent water
system, which is taken to also mean
city lights and more industries.
The first three names suggested
for councilmen we're DIR. L. A. Rudow,
Leon Little and Harvey Baker, and
no further nominations being made
they were chosen by reclamation.
Van E. Sargent was tn: only NOM
ination for treasurer, and he was al
so chosen by reclamation.
Many were present expecting a
discussion of the water proposition,
but no one seemed anxious to "start
anything" and as the business for
which the meeting was called was
finished, a motion to adjourn was
carried
Since the meeting some have talk
ed frame up, ETC., but everything
was done quietly and in order, and
each person present was given equa
opportunity for nominal ions and for
speaking, so that criticisms after
adjournment were entirely out Of
place.
