they would meet out to him II they

We would have made it condi-
ton of the armistice hat he should
be delivered alive to General Foch,
and that he be stripped Of his uni
form and be given working clothes.
He should then be assigned to the
steering gear of pick and shovel
and sentenced to serve for the rest
o fhis natural life rebuilding what
he had destroyed. He would be told
that If he could live thousand years
yet; he could not accomplish more
than a jot of what he owed the peo-
pie of the devastated country. The
others to share his fate and follow
next after him as soon as possible
in line of assignments would be Hin
denburg, Ludendorf, Turpitz, Crown
Prince and his brothers, Mackensen,
Cappelle, Bernstorf, and the whole
lineup of officers, statesmen, spies,
and others constituting the militaris-
tic body responsible for the war and
the atrocities. Private soldiers
would also be put to work, but they
could secure furloughs and finally,
pardons, by winning certain credits
for good behavior, and evidences of
good character during years OF SER
vice.

re-, have to keep remodeling.

we have to keep remodeling. AS
proof of this we refer to the fact
that nearly every home in the town
Is remodeled within four or five years
after it is built. Nearly every bust
ness house is remodeled within few
years, and most of them are worked
over In some way for each new ten
an. One of the best banks in town
has been remodeled four times in
fourteen years and the building Is
being reconstructed in the second
story now. 1t is sign of prosperity
and it is also sign Of lack of we'll
defined plans at the beginning, that
result in waste.
Nearly all CT the streets and roads
that have been built at all have teen
built owe. and over again. Prac.i-
cally all If the team scales in he
town have tten rebuilt from one tc
many times ir ten years. Mos. OF
the coal ins used by the dealers are
rebuilt everytwo or three years.
There is hardly a building erected
in town with coal chute that Is not
broken or rebuilt within year or
two. There are only two or three
stores in town that have not tried
having the office in FROM two to four
different places in the store. The
Lity Hall was completed seven years
ago and has been added to or re-
modelled in some respect every year
or two, so hat nothing remains the
same excepting the sides and roof.
The new school building was
blunder as to it's roofing and began
to leak as soon as It was finished.
They built coal bin but forgot to
arrange a suitable way to get the
coal into 1t land had to destroy
strip of lawn at storing time, and
finally tore out lot of paving and
some front wall and made coal
bin with a way to get coal into it.
The fairgrounds operated for fifteen
years and there was rebuilding or
moving Of buildings or fences al
most every year.
The time has come for us to use
more intelligence and foresight in
construction work. A halt has al
ready been called on temporary de-
| vices. We have laid some bitulithic
1 paving that was the subject Of much
careful investigation before work be-
1 gan, and 1t will probably be lasting.
\ Anyhow, nobody has moved it or
remodeled it yet.
i We are about to arrive at some
decision regarding water system,
and this is the time to do some clear
thinking. If we want to revel in re-
pairs, extensions, remodelings, re-
building and an infinite amount Of
contention from year to year as to
what Is best to do next, we can have
all Of those things by buying the
plant that Is now for sale. If we
are to create new system, this is
the time to start investigation, and
follow up with clear thinking to see
how it must be built If we would
have 1t stay built and stay in SER
vice, after it is done. A water main
is of little account all the time the
water Is shut off for repairs or for
investigation to see what is the mat
ter.

the tax payer will be relieved of his
share of this $4,000 year burden.
me tax payer who wishes to have
his taxes slightly reduced can secure
that result by voting for the bonds
next Tuesday. If the burden con-
tinues to be a burden at all 1t will
be shifted to the shoulders Of those
who buy water and pay their monthly
bills and it will not be felt by them
because the water rates will not be
any higher than they are at the pres
ent time.
Make Finer Lawns.
There will be more persons buying
water and in short time the system
will be managed with a little less ex-
pense and nobody will be able to To-
cate any additional expense to them
selves. The increased capacity OF
the pumping power will probably
add Just q little to the cost of cleo
trio current for pumping, and people
who use water for sprinkling will
probably have the privilege of using
more of it than they do under the

cess will pro baby be able to sprinkle
their lawns with the clean water and
keep the grass the beautiful, natural,
bright green color and not have the
disadvantage of the fox-tail and dan
delion killing out the sod.
The present water system pays
taxes of various kinds, state, NUM-
cipal, income and school taxes. The
water committee advise that under
the new system the city will not tax
itself for its water plant and 1t will
not have to pay an income tax. The
school district will not receive any
tax from the city water plant as II
now does and the state and county
government will not receive any tax
from the water plant as 1t now does
The slight loss to the state, county
and school treasures will not be
considered a serious obstacle to the
purchase. The whole tax paid
last year by the water works was
$l,251.46, so it wiz be seen that the
school district could not receive more
than small part Of that amount
and the loss would be hardly felt.
