The Disposal Of Sewer Waters
Presents Knotty Problem
City Dads Face Many Problems :
Bond Issue is Likely
No Decision

The matter OF the disposal OF the
sewerage waters OF the city met with
a full discussion at the called meeting
Of the City Trustees last night and
brought forth discussion sufficient to
have the entire matter laid over until
:; future date The more the. city
fathers look into this matter the more
the question presents itself as an ex-
Ceedlngly important one and possess
cd of kinks heretofore unheard Of.
BRIEFLY summarizing the happen
ings at last nights meeting one bid
was returned together with certi
fed check One bid was from
large property owner in the line of
the pipe through which the water will
have to be conveyed and through
whose land such pipe will have to
run. 1t offered to take certain po--
ton of the water and pay therefor
the sum of one hundred dollars iii
cash, and for another portion to pay
from three to five hundred dollars by
means of certain work in the con
struction of the pipe line. This bid
was to give him the use of the water
for fifty years. and to this long time
there was an objection by certain Of
the Board. Another man has had

ill bid offering twenty dollars per
year for the use of the water for 4
term of ten years, but it developed
last night that this party could not
obligate himself to care for the wat
Ell during the winter months.
AS the carrying of the water to the
point of disposal will entail an ex-
pense upon the city of at the very
least $l7OO, the Board is anxious
to perfect some arrangements where
by the matter OF sewerage may De
disposed of for all time to come and
source of revenue to the city, and ii
looks very much now as if the whole
matter will have to be gone over and
condemnation proceedings taken up
whereby the necessary land may be
obtained and used or the pipe line,
then the land leased out or rented at
a price that will pay good interest Oh
the money invested.
The matter has many points OF in
terest and will probably result in the
Board calling for bond issue, there
being resolution introduced at last
nights meeting looking toward the
adjustment of the matter bv what
looks to be wise solution.

of the sugar interests, both beet and

deal of money has been spent by both
sides to influence public opinion and
through it the vote of congressman on
the subject of free sugar. Henry T.

the American Beet Sugar Co., testified
before the committee that he esti-
