The views of citizen on the wa
ter system are:
While it is admitted by practi-
cally every citizen of Skowhegan
that the present water system is enc
tirely inadequate, there seems to he
very small amount of interest TAX
en- in the proposed SkoWhegan Wa
ter District. There is no question but
what some change is absolutely ne
cessary. and those particularly inter-
ested are determined that there will
he change. In view of this it wouN
seem very important that the citi-
zens should thoroughly inform them
selves i'll regard to the proposed wa
ter district and be ready when tha
time comes, TO act intelligently. The
change, if made, would involve the
expenditure of Il very large sum "
money. and even though it is desir-
able and perhaps wise to have 4 new
system, it is not wise nor good bus
mess to fight for or against this pro-
ject without being prepared with
facts and figures. These are easily
Obtainable ard are both interesting
and instructive. From present indi-
cations there is bound to be consil-
cradle controversy and perhaps i'll
feeling before the matter is finally
settled. 1t is therefore urged that
when the matter Of the proposed
Skowhegan Water District comes be-
