Show The city water system is nob what it sfiould be by any moans. Tho water commissioners rind, upon investigation, t hat the pipes are altogether to small. They recommend to t ho council that no " more small pipes be laid.' The muddy condition of the water, as shown by the report of the watermaster, Is owing to the fact that the banks of City Creek are washiug away. The council promptly ordered steps to bo taken to remedy this matter. It is hoped that the city at an early day will improve its entire water system. It cortainly needs a thorough overhauling, and extensions are needed in every direction. The waterworks should bo made to keep pace with the growth and demands of the city. |
