Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1920-01-23

At joint meeting of the Execu-
tive and Central Republican Com
mittee of Fulton County held in the
Court House at Wauseon, Monday
afternoon January 10Th, 1t. Col.
Ralph ID. Cole was unanimously en-
dorsed as candidate for the Republi-
can nomination for Governor of
Ohio.
The request for the endorsement
Of Warren G.. Harding as candi-
date for President of the United
St3ses and also Vas candidate for
u. S. Senator opened up a rather
lengthy discussion. iChairmen from
the various precincts of the county
we're called upon to express their
views and the attitude of the re-
publi1ars in their precincts, this
Symposium established The oonclu-
sion that while each member of the
committee favored thd endorsement
of Mr.. Harding as a presidential
candidate under the "favorite son"
idea and had full confidence in his
ability, from rs to 80 per cent of
the 9oters they had interviewed
Rad expressed themselves as favor
ing General Wood as the presi-
Dental candidate and Mr.. Harding
as the Republican candidate for
Senator. :
The committeeman baked at
the idea of endorsing one man as
candidate for two offices. The pro-
position to endorse Mr.. Harding as
Che candidate for president with
General Wood as second choice
was discussed but did not seem to
meet with the approval of the ma
jcri.y. Another proposition that
was turned down was to endorse
Mr.. Harding as candidate for re-
election as senator and leave the
PRESIDENTIAL candidacy open, with
out endorsement.
The consensus of opinion among
the committeeman seemed to be
Hiat Mr.. Harding has proven him.

are needed by tn Nation at this

Of chief executive, but there was
,Nnt the feeling that there was
at least a strong possibility of Mr..
harding failing to obtain the presi-
GENITAL nomination in which case
it seemed very likely that he would
lac eliminated as "a candidate for
tfhe senatorship from Ohio and the
state and Nation would lose the
valuable service of this states
man in the national councils.
Furthermore remarks made in
the meeting indicated that there
is the belief in the minds of some
peoples that the demands for the
lifted endorsement of Mr..
fIarding as presidential candidate
and also for his endorsement for
both president and senator, do moi
emanate from Mr.. Harding him
self but from the politician OIL

management of his campaign and

The following letter copy of
which is on file in the records Of
the Board of Trustees of Public
mars of Wauseon will be of in
terest to the residents of Wauseon
who may have heard from various
sources insinuations that the plans
for the water supply of this village
as adopted by the Board are not
likely to prove satisfactory in the
matter of furnishing the town with
an adequate water supply.
The letter as printed herewith
is copied verbatim from the letter

Toledo, Ohio.
Attention w. J. Sherman
Dear Sirs:-
We have made an examination
of the partial plans for the pro-
posed new water supply for Wau-
seon, received from you December
10th. We find no Objectionable
features in these plans and have
no suggestions to make regarding
changes in design.
For the purpose of estimating
the adequacy of the supply and re-
servoir development, we have pre-
pared a tabulation, copy of which
am sending you enclosed.
For this tabulation we have as
stunned the drainage area, reservoir
area, reservoir capacity and daily
consumption furnished by you
This tabulation indicates that dur.
i ing an extreme dry year, if all Of
! the flow of the ditch is pumped
during the months from July tt
November, there would be main
tanned in the reservoir sufficien
water to avert shortage. /
does not appear likely however
i that the consumption could great,
exceed 100000 gallons during sucl
a year. On the other hand, W,
tie that during the wet months
of the year there is considerable
! flow of the ditch which will not b
: pumped and cannot be stored un
! less another reservoir is construct
, ed. It would be possible, howeve
: to increase the reservoir capacit,
| to utilize more completely tn
yield of the ditch.
Il We are therefore inclined t
/ view the supply as being sufficien
{ for the reasonable future growt
4 of Wauseon, and we are of tn
. opinion that the development g
t present proposed, including the 70
100000 gallon reservoir, is suf
e. cient for the needs of the villag
t until the consumption exceeds 800
b 600 gallons per day. When thi
d consumption is reached there is tn
= possibility of extending the resel
voir capacity.
