Show BBB Compromise. H Tlio Lchi I rlgntlon nml tlio North BBB Center DItcti companies Bhould make BBB their best endcaorlo compromise the BBB water question. They can como nearer BBB what Is just nml lljht to both companies BBB than any court In tlio territory. There BBB nro men f judgement and experience BBB belonging to both Hoards whom the H larger majority of tlio clock-holders are H " ' willing to trust this matter with, wlth- BBB put calling n public mcdlng to votoon BBB' the (iticstlon. Tho two Hoards can meet BBS and tall; over, nnd discuss all tho points BBB connected with tho suhjcc'i in n calm BBS ivhuro Eomo persons nlwoys go wild BBS whenover tho question of water is BBS broachud. Such persons 0110 weuld think from tho manner In which they cxprcM themselves, don't wish nnother person to como to our city, nor bo tho possessor otono drop of water. Tho Idea seems to , bo because they woro fortunate enough f, to como hero (list, that every lluko ol , P'""v "i mi's upon tho mountain toj is theirs. SccmiiiKly to forget how bucIi expressions betray tlo idea convnved, when thoy tell how tho waters hnvu In- creased du ilng tho past 25orC0cnrs. BB Tiierouroiiinttein that nro very klgnll- tantly connected win, tlilsqueitlon of ter, that much could be said and written on the subject. Our Jncreaso of population is one which throng itself BBJ before us, for instance wo liavo nearly BBr 800 young jicoplo betueon thu ago of U A 18 years.

I J tto feel there is no question of more BBJ Importance to the people than tho one J 01 iiow to provide lnenns whereby the BBB J'outh of our city nnd Uioho who como I irom othor lands can mako 11 living H nnd have homes of their own. To do I J,,,!,l,;c1 1,elJo "ust bo generous enough o divide up what thoy June, or to put BB H'r means together nnd inercaso tho BBB water supply. Bo that tho sage brush enn bo uprooted, nnd in its jdace beaut- tul homes, thorecn verdure, the golden BE SMlu and tho SHCet scented iloHers. 't if it does tako a few- dollars from BBJ tl'oso who hnve it, to increase our water supply, thcro is more pleasure in doing for this piirKBe, than ((ponding It in tho com Is w hlcli neither gives us water homes, farms nor good fellings.
