Certain parts of the Frisco addition
in the northwestern portion of the
city are bone dry. That fact was
made plain to the city dads last
night by a committee from that sec
ton of town, at that the gentlemen
representing the Frisco addition
craved strong or spirituous liquor.
They wanted water and so they told
the council.
AS represented by the committee,
there were, once on a time, in fact
divers wells in the neighborhood
they represented, which wells gave
forth an abundance of water. That
time, however, is past and gone they
stated and now the wells are prac-
tically as dry as the prohibitionists
could desire of this nation. Where
fore, the committee prayed the city
council to cause water mains to be
laid two blocks north on Ninth street
to Oklahoma avenue, thence two
blocks east on Oklahoma, also one
block on Eighth street. They stated
that some % water customers could
be obtained on the books of the city's
department. by so doing.
Who'll Dig the Ditch.
Councilman Hawn, representative
of the Frisco addition in the council,
moved that the relief prayed for by
the committee be granted. Frank
Scrimager, water superintendent,
stated that the pipe for the job is on
the ground and that by purchasing
sufficient hydrants and Specials" the
equipment would be ready.
The equipment, however, Mr.. Scrim-
ager stated, formed only minor part
of the proposition. The main thing,
ne made plain, is that no ditch for
water mains will simply go and dig
