tricts, may lead to extensive I'M

and many Of our property owners
are signing them, thus signify ing
their willingness to be taxed for the
the carrying out Of the plans sub.

which include the issuing of twenty
year bonds for the initial expenses
The plan proposes the putting in
Of twelve miles of sewer and nine
miles of water mains, many OF
which will be Of six and eight inch
pipes. Both the sewer and the wa
ter ways have been SO planned that
all growing sections adjoining the
city may be easily connected later,
There will be 81 fire plugs, The res.
ervoir will be of concrete construc-
ton and will be located on the top
of the highest hill east of Crooked
Creek, 1t will have a capacity Of
100000 gallons, giving a pressure
Of eighty pounds in the business sec
ton Of town and 20, pounds at the
highest point, Septic tanks will be
placed below town.
Public sentiment varies much on
the proposition, and should be given
an opportunity to form ntelligcntly
