| Show C OUN partington THE ivarea AND AD THE POOR FOOR councilor partington has baa aken umbrage at what TIIE THE JOURNAL said concerning ilis his plan for increasing tao watt water cupply and presents his in this issue of the paper why ho he should have done so eo we are unable to tell as tur TUE utterances were commendatory of tho spirit he had manifested but took exceptions to 0 hit methods surely mr partington Parting tou is not infallible and if not why not permit a of his unfortunately for mr partington Parting tou tim THE objected to his plan be bc cause it did understand it As far theory goes it as aff mr mi v well ell but it is a theory and instead of mr partington Porting Parting tou being the man to help the poor he hap pe acus ts to be the very kind of a man mail who will do no such tiling thing his proposition is to help a class tim THE JOURNAL ato benefit all in tho the first place mr partington wilfully or ignorantly forgets the fact that the canal through r yia which this city receives its water supply is not owned ly by logan city a fatal objection and it could not carry all the water mr part in antons ing 0 tons increased pipe and pressure would put into it besides the lie says it will cost to carry out his theory lie ho hns has to secure the right to enlarge tho the canal and then to enlarge it that is an additional cost then the canal still is owned by others than the city the water has to be turned out periodically that the canal may bo be cleaned and while this is done where do all water takers beaure their supply from tile filthy ditches and surface water wells of courtl every time there is a break iu in the canal the supply is cut off the Tho of water occasions a loss lose by evaporation nand and leaves the alic water open be filled with filth as is now done at tho the point where the water turns to enter cuter the reservoir conduit but mr fr partington v removes all tecc objection ho he lias has till still to confront lum him we the tact that the mains of the present agrenot are not farenbough farenough far enough in ill the 1 ground round to protect them thein from being 0 frozen and the supply cut off liy by this rea eon and tu to spend more inore money in a ayt teni as unfavorably ly environed ann cnn ironed as this is bould ix be worse than folly it would lie he a i deliberate robbery of the public trea treasury surN when mr Parting tort says av the people paid for the water that goes into tile house of tile lie editor of this paper hu it says what is not true mr partington Pirt ington can get the water just jua as the did for liis his dear little ones iy ay ry putting 0 his bis liand hand into his bis pocket and paying 4 for it ind awl then paying a lic heavy avy tax for the luxury sir partington may have haar I 1 gained a little brief knowledge of hydraulics but it would hucin to lie ile sulli cien tonly to show him hijii clearly how hrcan a get the paying payin 0 out any money per personally anally on ally if lie knows anything at all he knows that lie he could not supply aids city and the poor thereof with water through the arcs chit s system astern of mains make the pres burc what lie likes but ho he could supply tile neighborhood which centers around main street and which in it itri limits would include tile of the honorable councilor therefore the talk about dwor and children drinking impure water is is so enuch clap trap trail sir mr partington is ih not lot tile the f fir detinan to sock seck a little cheap abeal notoriety by harping about ami the farmer and i till riving giving then them no employment the plan proposed by tim bovit tovu NAL AL ws was big enough to give water to all mr Parting tons is the oll ono to furnia h enough for nic me and mv my vi fens four and no more amen of court c it will co cost st money and who will bear tile brunt of if it I 1 the rich or tho poor the rich 0 of f courech because they own alic wealth but mr partington would tal take the taxes of poor poo r and rich alike and squander them in patching up a practically and worth leaB which can call only be made to do service for a fuw few and will levo the poor father away than ever from a supply of pure water because their money has ban been spent in patchwork it is about time that eliat this per petuel rot is as to rich and ami poor in tins this city cease it may bring a pleasant unction to tile the souls fouls of such as mr partington Parting tort to feel that hio t they satisfy every call of the savior in behalf of the poor by pr praising and pretending to benefit them the luan inan who blesses and benefits the poor is the man who spends spend the means that god has given him it in furnishing honorable labor to liis his fellow men and since mr par ington hington hab gone out of his way to call attention to the financial condition coni colli of the editor lie I 1 cannot take umbrage if we remind him that ho he is not counted to bo be among those that have given all they haul had to the poor and followed the gospel lie ile is ia not a sufferer sun erca in the w worl orb I 1 if ift common repute is if to roberc be relied on it is a 1 singular thin thing that a man mail of mr Parting tons years cannot discuss a himple proposition without creating 0 a casto caste and ap appearing pearin c to throw his whole lot with the poor or we 0 began to think lie ile told tho the truth when lie he said his election sis as a mer member ilber of the city council wasa was a mistake if lie he cannot discuss and act on oil business propositions like a remembering that he is F opposed to speak for tile the interests of a city and not to make classes lie is certain certainly y the wrong n man in tho the place lie ile had better be getting gattin on oil tho side of peace and brit ging r his fellows and brethren to together 0 ether rather than widening C the rift bv creating a class feeling these colu columns are open to mr partin I 1 n ton to any extent within reason but 0 o will give loo to tile poor if lit lie can call prove what lie lic says is the cabe caba that his plan is in the interest of the poor if lie will L give loo to tile poor on oil his failure faili ire to prove it and then we ive will give to the poor if we cannot prove that the plan of JOURNAL is the real one that will give an any ise assurance urance of relief to tho the I 1 poor provided lie will give t to to tile poor if we ave do not prove it thus mr partington Pirt ington can have a chanch to air his love for tile poor in in a practical manner alq if lie is hot s alii fiad with V this tur JOURNAL JOI will ra give five to the poor if lie 14 i 1 4 nut not worth twice as much as its edito if lie ho employs employ one third as many bread winners provided lie will give aloo to the poor if we ave prove this to to bo be the cae if we are arc to show our love for the poor let us do 0 o as men if we are arc talking a lot of rabbi h as we ave to be tile the case with mr partington let n ii ni i tile ilic fa fat fart t clear |
