Two weeks ago the Salem water COM
pany sent in bin of S93 to the city
council for the water used in the Nc
Gilchrist Fountain this being the
amount used according to their figures
since last May. The bill was sent to
City Attorney Macy for his opinion,
which was adverse, on the grounds that
the water company by its Franchise of
1891, was TO give the city free water
for q public fountain, designated by the
city The city has never exercised this
right, according to Mr.. Macy and there
fore was entitled to water free at the
McGilchrist fountain, having designat-
ed it as public fountain. The water
company claim the Bush fountain was
the public fountain, although it had
never been designated as such by the
city. The city having refused to pay
the bill, the next move is up to the
water company.
