PURPOSE OF WATER BONDS
EXPLAINED IN DETAIL
Mayor Shaw and Councilman Pamerton Show
How the City Council Plans to Use the
Money in Case Election Carries

The following communications
from Mayor Shaw and Councilman
Palmerton deal with subject of
great Importance to the residents of
Pullman and contain information
which every taxpayer should study;
To the Citizens of Pullman:
deem it advisable, if indeed not
my duty, to place before you what
/ believe to be a perfectly impartial
statement of the facts surrounding
the present water supply of our city
and the proposed Improvement
thereof, that you may be in position
to vote intelligently on the question
of the bond issue at the forthcoming
election. There are possibly many
among you who do not rightly APP
preciate the fact that today the best
residence district of the city, that
along the crest of College hill, is
practically without service of water
for fire protection. The same may
be said of Military hill and any of
those districts that are at a consid
cradle elevation. 1t was the fact
that the pumping station at the old
well by the city hall was pumping
about as much air as water into the
mains that led your council last year
to seek for a better supply of water,
which was found in such abundance
in the new well which was bored.
II is to avail ourselves of this abund
ant supply, to put our residence dis
tricts beyond the danger of destruct-
i've conflagrations and, as is expect
ed, to furnish the general service of
water at less cost, that your pres
ent council deems it advisable to
obtain the means for carrying out
this development and Improvement,
by obtaining the money through
bonding the city for $4,000, or such
portion thereof as may be necessary,
for this especial purpose. The fol-
lowing are the carefully estim ated
items of the cost of these improve
ments, the figures being compiled
from the market cost of the needed
material f. o. b. Pullman, less dis
counts; and the cost of the labor
etc., being estimated upon last years
experience.

Tom was allowed 20 leave the sani-

Doris took him 10 the little home she

Mills saw them together and started

tentions.
While there he saw a message say
ing the superintendent would be there
that afternoon and being just in the
mood for revenge he set fire TO the
trestle. Doris discovered the fire and
while Tom held Jake at the point OF
a revolver, rushed down the track
and made her way over the blazing
timbers on the trestle. Arrived at the
other side she staggered up the
track, and tagged the train just in
time. The grateful superintendent
readily fOrgave Doris for her decep-
ton. and appointed her husband and
herself TO a far more important posi-
ton. Tomorrow two three reel spe-
Gals will be shown "In Defiance Of
