THE WATER WOEKS.

Their Purchase by the City—The Absurdi-j ty of the Proposition. Tho question of the purchase of the Water Works by tho city is one that has reached beyond the limits of practical discussion, and all the talk that has been indulged in is mere moonshine. Before a city can actually embark in the erection of water works or to make extensions or improvements where works have heretofore IJOOU constructed the question shall bo submitted to tho qualified voters at a special or general election, upon a a petition of one hundred freeholders and resident taxpayers, and in no case shall the Common Counoil erect, or make extensions or improvements exoept upon a majority of all the votes oast at such election. When this is done the oity may issue bonds to run not less than iive years nor more than twenty years, and tkw bonds shall not be sold for loss than 94 cents, it is ooncoded that the samesteps must be taken where works haye been erected by a corporation if the city desire to purchase. So muoh for tho preliminaries to be taken by the citizens and the City Council. And now comes the provision of thd water works ordinance in which the oompany agrees to

BOU

the plaut to the

oity at the expiration of ten years, which option cannot be enforced until October 19, 1895. The ordinance provides if at that time the oity desires to purchase, the company shall sell. Ju case the parties cannot agree as to the price to be paid each shall select a competent, disinterested, hydraulic engineer and should these two disagree they shall seleot a third engineer. These eng ineers shall be duly sworn to make a just and equitable cash valuation of the property. It shall be optional with the oity to pay cash or bonds, and if bonds, the rate of interest shall not exceed 5 per oent. This option is renewable at tho end of every live years thereafter. It will

bo seen that the city e.auuot

Btep in and buy a water works plant as it would go upon the streot to bay a horse. The oompany owning tho works has bonded them for 8150,000, aud the bondholders hold a mortgage for this sum. Legal proceedings havo been instituted against tho company iu the United States District Court for tho payment of tho interest aud some other debts. The Court has appointed a Receiver, and it is presumed the works will be sold at Receiver's sale. Tho only way tho city could buy the works now, after the provisions of tho statute havo boon complied with concerning an election, is to enter the lield as a ooui-

lms

thoy have been working the the bonds, 8150,000. It would be the hoight of folly and the very acme of

|1 the face of

obsurdity fo. tho city to attempt a purchase of tho works at these figures. Tho proposition would be voted down nearly unanimously. The plant cost probably not more than 8110,000. These nre liberal figures aud to pay 8iil),000 more than it cost is too absurd even to consider seriously.

Andorson, Secretary, and Ben Crane, Treasurer. The company immediately transferred its property over to ttie Water and Light Company of which John S. Brown is President, P. C. Somerville, Secretary, W. H. Ashley, Treasurer, aud Coffin & Stanton, principal stockholders. The receiver's stile of the water works will not occur until about tho middle of April.
