A. Waddell and Edwin Porter, al
dermen.
1t was reported that only a
small number of people attended
the mass meeting Tuesday night.
One of the major issues in JEFF
ferSon now is the water system,
which presents quite problem.
About half of the homes in the
town are supplied by a private
water system, owned by Emmett
McNeill and the others have in
dividual systems of their own.
The Mcneil system is said to
be about worn out and badly in
need of repair and modernization.
Mr.. Mcneil has given notice sew
eral times that he is going to dis
continue the service as the reve-
nue. which he receives out of it
does not justify big expenditure
for improvement.
What effect this issue will have
on the ensuing election cannot be
determined at this time.
