NEW CITY WELL
HAS GOOD WATER /,
Drilling Is Progressing Satisfac-
tOriIy and Contractor VIII
Finish First Hole
Soon

Contractor ]. T. Phipps, so far, is
meeting with excellent results In
drilling the city well in the north end
Of the city. The drillers are now
down about 750 feet. They have
cased of down below 500 feet, where
the hole is eleven inches in diameter
and are now drilling with an eight
inch bit. Casing is on the ground for
this also. The work was started
seven weeks ago. The well will
be sunk to depth Of from 1000 to
1900 feet, depending on the striking
Of good vein Of water. Water was
struck at 565 feet, a plenteOus flow
which under analysis proved to be OF
excellent quality. There Is little
chance Of missing a good flow Of wat
er.
When the present well Is completed
il is likely that another well Of the
same size will be ordered, although
that matter rests with the council.
The council also has to get out .
new set Of plans to meet the new
conditions and make arrangements
for the running Of the mains over
town before the new system will be
of service to the people. The plan is
to build q reservoir at the well sight,
and a tower tank in more central 10
cation, possibly in the library park.
Such good progress is being made
with the drilling that it begins to ap-
pear that this part Of the work is go
ing to be finished before the council
has provided for going ahead with the
balance of the work. However. the
council no doubt is disposed to move
as swiftly as possible toward prOvid-
ing a better fire protection and bet
ter water service for the city.

Galena Times: Said a well known
business man to US the other day: III
would not hurt you to occasionally
mention our business in the paper. 1t
would help to fill up, you know" Yes
we might do it. We haven't the least
idea on earth that it would hurt US,
and it would, as he suggests, help to
fill up. We might do all this, but at
the same time, thank God, we do not
have to do it unless we feel like 1t. 1t
would not hurt him, either, to come
around and say: "Give me a column
or a half column of space for an ad-
vertisement, and here is the money
for it." By doing this he would be-
come a deserter to that grand army
of deadheads who expect the newspa-
pers to continually note the improve
ments they make, by giving them free
puffs, and for which they never pay
cent. It is high time for all classes
to learn that a newspaper is a busi-
ness enterprise, the same as a dry
goods store or q grocery, run for a
living for its owner.
