Water Charters Refused.

The publication of an erroneous dis
patch in the Oil City Derrick fell like a
pail over this community last Thursday
morning when It was stated that the
State water supply commission had sp-
proved the applications for charters 10
dam Tionesta creek, and until later re.
ports were received stating the very
opposite to be the case, that is, that the
commission had refused the applications,
the comments by a unanimous citizen
ship were very severe and bitter.
The Derrick's report came through an
error in the transmission of the telegram
from Harrisburg, the word mot" being
omitted from the message. The mistake
served to show the intense feeling that
exists In this county against this gigantic
looting of the water rights, and the build
ing of a horrible death.trap over our
heads, and the correction caused a won
derful feeling of relief to the people, who
stand ready to fight to the bitter end a
project so foul and destructive in its
every aspect.
The commissions refusal 10 approve
the charters is based on the ground that
the project would divert the water from
the stream through tunnel to another
power project, and that the scheme would
be against state interests.
Itis hoped we have heard an end of the
whole scheme once and for all.
RENEWING THEIR EFFORTS.
BY notice of application for charter
published in this issue it will be seen the
same parties are going to try again for
charter grants. 1t behooves our people
to be on the alert and redouble their ef-
forts toward frustrating the schame
