When the proposed commissi


charter goes before the people for ad-
option it should
Let Them have a provision to
Finish the job. the effect the pres
ent water board
shall remain in authority until the
gravity water system is complied.
To take from the water commission
its authority at this time would be
neither business-like nor fair. The
water commissioners started the Job,
let them finish It. II was On their
recommendation that the people voted
the water bonds The commission Sc
lected the Thorn Hollow project and
let the contract They should be al
lowed TO see the thing through. Then
If there is praise they viii get the
praise; IL there Is censure they VIII
have to stand the censure
There is no necessity for abolishing
the water commission at once. There
is every reason why it should remain
in control until its present task is fin
1shed. There Is an old adage that one
should not trade horses while crossing
a stream. and it applies to this case.
II the proposition were a private af-
fair no business man would think Of
taking such step as some people pro-
pose. The water commissioners know
all about the water problem. they
know all about the contract they have
made. they know where to be watchful
in order to protect the city. It would
be silly to take these men off duty
now and place raw recruits on the
job.
II the water commission is abolished
at once the situation viii be thrown
into turmoil There win be cance
for 3ugglery and no one will know
what 70 expect The water system
may be still further delayed
The charter makers should make no
such blunder as this. II they do they
win place the cause Of oommisson
government in jeopardy.
