WATER SYSTEM
 IS CONTEMPLATED
Believed City Council Would Fa- vor Scheme Under Proper
 Reg uIations

Several members of the city council have been approached with view of learning their at titude towards granting a fran chise for a waterworks system. The council, no doubt, is willing to grant such a franchise under proper restrictions. It is said the inquiries were made in behalf of a local citizen, who for some time back has been contemplat- ing such an enterprise under the old BOurke franchise.
