Appeals to Mrs. Hart
And let me say for Mrs. r. H.
Hart that I knew by her letter to
the girls, that she never entered
into this clannishness and has proven
to be Il woman of a higher type and

against Senator Ralph Cameron, made

So that the total amounts of addi-
tional bonds permissible would be
S502. 2.45656, and 1t would seem that 1t
is inadvisable to issue bonds so close
to the limit permitted and burden the
town with such heavy Indebtedness
and interest payments, and that the
Wisest course at this time, would be
to limit ourselves to the construction
Of the new reservoir and the improve
ment Of the collecting system. Should
this bond issue be voted it would ap-
pear advisable that it be in bonds
with only the interest charges pay
able the first ten years and the prin-
cipal and interest thereon each year
thereafter, thereby lessening the bur-
den Of the town for the next ten years
during which time 1t would be paying
to the railway company $10,000.00 an
nually as before stated to apply on
the cancellation of its Indebtedness of
$235, 900.

and that therefore the expenditure OF
/ $250,000 above referred to for this
/ work is all that it is necessary to con-
slider at this time However, in this
1 connection it is well to bear in mind
| the fact that only in normal years
when the flow at the springs is boun-
| tiful over fairly long period is it
| possible to fill our present reservoir
and an additional one, and that in
years such as the present one not
| only would it be impossible to fill both

| year the spring would not flow long
enough at It's nigh mark to fill even
one Of the so million gallon reservoirs
by reason of the fact that the present
/ flow line has not enough capacity to
take care of the waeer lowing from
/ the springs and the sur plus goes to
waste. Therefore the advisabiIity of
constructing a new flow line should
be very seriously considered.

in cash for IL 1-2 years, plus the pay
ment of the additional $4,000 by
water deliveries at 20 cents per thous-
and gallons. If this were to be agreed
upon then it would be necessary for
