THE PURE WATER PROBLEM.

pttter water h a we are now uslng.
IL certainly behooves Wheeling 20

That was the statement made TO a
representative of The Inteliigencer
BY Mr.. John Coleman. the analytical
chemist OF this city. and an acknowl.
edged authority In his line Of bust.
ness. That Is just what The Iutelli-
geneer and all advocates OF filtration
have contended for-"any kind OF
filtered water would be better than
the water we are served with AZ pres
emit" And Mr.. Coleman again agrees
with The Intelligencer when he sue.
gests that we should apply business
principles aud exercise economy" IN
making the selection OF a system to
provide Wheeling with pure water.
II was the extravagant cost that de-
feated the bond issue for a certain
system favored in a popular vote So
cured by purely selfish motives and
inhuenceG Wheeling can AFFORD a
filtration system for a reasonable
cost II cannot afford TO make an
experiment with a system that has

particular method Of securing whole
some drinking water. but they are
eager like The lntelligencer, to get
that kind OF water as soon as DOS
sible. Therefore they are backing
the test well TO get at the facts. Mr..
Coleman's testimony to the character
OF the water furnished by the well
