Show again the sentiment of the people of provo is for wa and for a good system tha step is an import aaa one anac rab move should be I 1 mada in the beginning first it should be known n hatkins of a boin will be best edited to the needs of the city now that the people have waited BO long they ought to hava the very beat waterworks water works that hey can afford the different differ ant systems should be studied with care and the of waterworks water works should be made the order of business from now on until the work is under way public sentiment seems to be ad verso to any private company con broling tha water system the very beginning that made with WITCHES JONES has led them to do aire that the city might have full control not only of construction but of the management when the system is completed the citizens can remove a lad lot of offiC bM if their actions are not pleasing but with the water works in the of a company re dross would ba hard to obtain furthermore ther more the mami can be extended at tho will of the city as many hydrants can bo os abolished ablis hed as the city may require and the fullest satisfaction given with abo funds at the disposal of the council THE is fully convinced that granting a franchise to any com pany especially mm whom the people are not acquainted with would be an ovil which in time would cause much trouble to the town we are convinced of this by tho experience tho city has had during the past year and by eur observations of how much trouble neigh borio cities aro having with waitr companies brovo must bo independent in the control of the water which belongs to the city and the must bo under the direction and fu 1 control of the government anything will not please the public the danger tha thousands of dollars worth of property is in the high rates of insurance and the great needs felt for waterworks water works in general mako it a necessity that work lo 10 commenced on edmu system as soon as possible becco we make the the suggestion that the city council do not mis now while tho iron is hot that i the question of waterworks water works should ba uppermost until tho city is supplied with a complete system
