Water Works.

Understanding that the question of our water works will be submitted to the Common Council at its next meeting, we to-day take up a large portion of our columns in presenting to our readers what is thought of the Holly WaterWorks where they are in active use. These opinions will certainly be read with great interest by all of our citizens, for there is a very great desire that Water Works shall be completed at as early a day as possible in this city. The heat and dust of last summer told plainly how much we needed water all over the city, in order to make us all more comfortable, and more secure against fire. It is high time now that the company organized to build these works were actually at work, if we are to have the advantage of Water Works this summer and fall, and we are glad to know that steps are about to be taken to push the matter.

THE fossilized, fossiliferous fossil on the corner of Sixth and Ohio, amuses itself this morning by ridiculing Schurz and Trumbull. Sumner escapes, thanks to all the gods at once.

From the Toledo Blade.

THE HOLLY WATER WORKS.

Valuable Statistics and Reports from Cities that Have Them in I se. In compliance with a resolution of the Water Works Committee of the Toledo City Council, Geo. W. Merrill, Esq., the City Clerk, addressed a circular to inquiry to the clerks of city having the Holly Water Works in

use,

and has received re

sponses to his questions as given below. This information is very full and complete, and embraces all the points upon which our citizens can desire information to enable them to vote intelligently. We commend the reports to the careful attention of every voter:

Cost of works and miles of pipes: Peoria, III., $440,000, 2o.} miles, 200 double hydrants.

Cumberland, Md., $99,864, 6 miles, 47 hydrants Ogdensburg, N. Y., $135,000, 11 miles and 1,300 feet of pipe, 66 hydrants.

Binghampton, N. Y., $180,000, 19 miles of pipe, 128 hydrants. Saratoga .Springs, N. Y., $200,000, 11 miles of pipes, 99 hydrants.

Laporte, Ind., $95,000, 5i miles of pipe, 52 hydrants. Connersville, Ind., (cost not given) 3J miles of pipe, 32 hydrants.

Norwalk, Ohio, $95,000, 9 miles of pipe, 70 hydrants. Kalamazoo, isych., $.80,000, 10 miles of pipe, 70 hydrants.

Buffalo, N. Y., $42,000, (amountofpipe not stated,) 106 hydrants. Uovgrneur, N. Y., $16,000, -f miles'of pipe laid.

Ver«ennes, Vt., $27,000, 2 miles of pipe laid, 23 hydrants. Evansville, Ind., $300,000, 13 miles of pipe—works uncompleted.

Dayton, O.—The cost of the works'to. January 1st, 1872, was $362,000. Number of miles of pipe, main and distributing, said to January 1st, 1872, 22 miles and 209 hydrants.

Minneapolis, Minn.—$110,000. Have about five miles of pipe. Auburn, N. Y.—Cost about $175,000. About 17 miles of pipe—12,10, 8, 6 and 4 inch use the iron and cement pipes, of Water Pipe Co., 91 Liberty street, N. Y. 155 hydrants.

Lockport, New York.—About $20,000. These are the original Holly Water Work, and comprise but one rotary pump and water wheel, with necessary connections, and 50 hydrants.

Columbus, O.—$353,309 23 miles of main and sub-mains 154 hydrants. The annual cost of running the works

Peoria, 111.—$12,000. Cumberland, Md.—Estimated, $8,500 —have not been running a year.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—$2,500, being $1,200 for salaries, and $1,300 for contingencies. Binghamton, N. Y.—$12,000, including salaries.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—Works in operation six months—no estimate. Laporte, Ind.—$5,000.

Connersville, Ind.—Water powejjJooO Superintendent, $150 total, $700. Nonvalk, O.—About $4,500—have not been in use a year.

Kalamazoo, Mich.—About $6,000.. Buffalo, N. Y.—About $7,000. Gouverneur, N. Y.—$150, for attention to machinery and pumps.

Vergennes, Vt.—$150 for a man to take charge of machiuery, &c. Dayton, O.—$15,000. It will average this amount.

Minneapolis, Minn.—About $2,000. Auburn, N. Y.—About $4,500—use water power.

Lockport. N. Y.—About $1,500. Columbus, O.—About $1,600. Its comparative value, based ou your experience, as a protection against fire, and its economy as compared witli a fire department, which will be equal to it in effectiveness? Answer:

Peoria, Ills.—Far superior to any Fire Department. We could not have a Department that would equal it in effective•ness, only at an ernormous expense.

Cumberland, Md.—The fire protection „wof the "Holly" excels steamers,hand-en-gines, &c. Cannot be excelled.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—It is the most effieient contrivance ever discovered "to •rifight fire. Comparative value cannot be ^estimated. •*v Binghamton, N. Y.—-We think it the1

most perfect protection against confla- tary—200 men. Now 30 men—$1 for first

gration, of any mode known heretofore. Saratoga Springs, N. Y., cheaper. La Porte, Ind., there is no comparison.

Connersville, Ind,, don't think any other system equal to it for fire protection. We have saved property now more than its cost.

Norvvalk, O., can turdly compare the two systems. Every hydrant is equal to two hand engines.

Kalamazoo, Mich., its efficiency is greater than any Fire Department that use.either steamers or hani-engines. A Fire Department with engine to approximate the effectiveness would C03t fully 50 per cent more.

Buffalo, N. Y,, the cost of running for all purposes, is about equal to the cost of maintaining one steamer as effective as two or three.

Gouverneur, N.Y., We had no Fire Department before the erection of the works.

Vergennes, Vt., We don't estimate its value in figures—would not do without them. They paid for themselves in less than one month' after starting.

Minneapolis, Minn., We think it is far more effective and -much cheaper. Dayton, 0.,The value of the works as protection from fire is difficult to estimate. AFire Department to be equal to it in effectiveness would exceed the works in cost.

Auburn, N. Y.—Vastly superior to steam engines. We have put out fires this winter when so cold it's doubtful if any engine could work.

Lockport, N. Y.—At least five times. Columbus, O.—Properly managed, they are of great value, and are much more efficient at fires at less cost than a regular steam fire department.

The percentage of increase each year over the first year, from receipts of rents, etc?

Peoria, 111.—About 50 per cent. Cumberland, Md.—Estimated for second year over 100 per cent.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—Went into operation Nov. 1868—only a few consumers that year. In Nov., 1870, had 336 in Nov., 1871, had 468.

Binghamton, N. H.— Receipts in 1869, $3,671.14 receipts in 1870, $8,554.00 receipts in 1871, $12,976.13 receipts in two months of 1872, $3,733.23. Total, $28,934.00.

Connersville, Ind.—$2,000 to $2,500 by another year. Kalamazoo, Mich.—Second over first year, 50 per cent—will probably increase 30 per cent, ensuing year.

Dayton, O.—Receipts for nine months in 1870, were $3,160 for twelve months in 1871, $9,960.

Auburn, N. Y.—Receipts for first year about $9,000. The capacity of each hydrant, the height to which water can be thrown through them, and the number that can be worked at once effectively for fire purposes

Peoria, 111.—Each hydrant is equal to a steam fire engine. We have thrown thirteen streams of one inch at one time over 100 feet in height, and could throw more if necessary. Six 1J inch streams have been thrown on a fire at one time. We have to guard against damage by water nearly as much as damage by fire.

Cumberland, Md.—From six hydrants at the same time, it will force an inch and a half to two inch stream 150 to 170 feet perpeudicular.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—Each hydrant delivers two 2| inch streams. They are located'that four hydrants come within a radius of 700feet 100 pounds pressure will elevate all these streams 120 feet high, and even have the power to supply the pressure.

Binghampton, N. Y.—We have double and single nozzle hydrants. We can throw six streams and maintain them for any length of time. Have had seven at work at one time, throwing streams of 1 and 1| inch to an altitude of 125 to 150 feet.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y. 2J- inch streams 200 feet high. We have used twenty hydrants to good purpose at two fires which happened at the same time.

Laporte, Ind.—1st, the same as a steam fire engine 2d, we have thrown 135 perpendicular feet 3d, about 8.

Connersville, Ind.—Each hydrant has two openings for hose can throw water 100 feet high, through inch nozzles.

Norwalk, O.—1st throws two streams 2d, with iuch nozzles we have thrown six streams at one time from as many different hydrants to the height of over 100 feet.

Kalamazoo, Mich.—Single hydrant 4 inch openings double hydrants double the capacity of single single stream through 1J- inch nozzle has been thrown perpendicular 195 feet. Six streams through same size nozzle used simultaneously, 100 feet perpendicular. From 5 to 8 can. be worked effectually at the same tine.

Buffalo, N. Y.—One double or ttfo single dydrants are more than equal to a steamer. One hundred feet or upwards. Our works, which are of the size usually put in-for supplying cities of from 8,000 to 82,000 inhabitants, good for six effective fire streams.

Governeur, N." Y.—Use 2} inch hose, 1 inch nozzle, and can throw four streams over any building we have, the highest being 44 feet.

Vergennes, Vt.—Hydrants throw 2 streams, each 2J inches. Can throw from the highest point in town 100 feet high easily. Have to force the water about 75 feet to our main pipe to get up to the highest point. We have never used more than two hydrants at oue time, that I remember Of.

Dayton, O.—Water can be thrown 100 feet high. We have frequently worked effectively from six to eight hydrants. Could work more if uecessary.

Minneapolis, Minn.—We can throw six to eight streams 100 feet high, one inch nozzle, with ninety pounds,pressure.

Auburn, N. Y.—We have used five at time, and always forced water over the highest buildings. Have seen streams forced as high as 150 to 175 feet.

Lockport, N. Y.—Water has been thrown 120 feet perpendicularly. Each bydraut is as good at least as three hand engines. There has never been more than tcn. pt eleven used in this city at once.

Columbus, O., each hydrant has connections with the main by a four inch pipe, and will throw equally as far as by any other not more powerful. There has been thrown not over 12 streams at one time, but the capacity of the works will allow some 16 or 18 streams thrown on a fire with good effect.

The great distance from the source of supplp water is forced for fire pnrpose? Peoria, 111.—Nearly 4 miles.

Cumberland, Md.—Two miles, but can be much greater. Ogdensburg, N. Y.—About miles.

Binghampton, N. Y.—About 2 miles, straight line. Saratoga Springs, N.Y.—About 3 miles.

Laporte, Ind..—Oue and a half miles. Connersville, Ind.—Can carry water through 1200 feet of hose—all we got.

NorwalKf O.—About 2£ miles. Kalamazoo, Mich.—Two miles.. Buffalo, N. Y.—About 2i miles. Governeur, N. Y.—Five-eighths of a mile, can be used any distance we require.

Vergennes, Vt.—Two hundred rods is the farthest we have any hydrants. Dayton, O.—Three miles.

Minneapolis, Minn.—One and a half miles. Auburn, N. Y.—Two and a halfto three miles.

Lockport, N. Y.—One-half mile each way. Columbus, p.—About two and a half miles.

The annual expense of your fire department previous to the construction of the works, and the present annual expense?

Peoria, 111.—Previous to construction, about $15,000 now $5,500. Cumberland, Md.—$900, and now about the same.

Ogdensburg, JT. Y.—Before* volun

hour and 50 cents for each subsequent hour at a fire. Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—$1,500.

Laporte, Ind.—1st, $4,000 2d, $2,000. Connersville, Ind.—1st $900 2d, $350 Norwalk, O.—Department was volunteer.

Kalamazoo, Mich.—$3,500. Buffalo, N. Y.—No change, as we occupy new. territory.

Dayton, O.—This caunot well be ascertained. Auburn, N. Y.—Am not able to state. We only had hand engines before these works. Expenses not more than onehalf as much, and our city largely increased.

Lockport, N. Y.—The old fire department consisted of three hand engines. There is not mu'eh difference as the companies have been kept up for use beyoud the territory protected by the Holly" system $3,000 pftr annum is the expense of the department.

Columbus, O.—$19,849.24. No report for the past year. An approximate estimate of what would now be the cost of your fire department without Holly Water Works?

Peoria, 111.—$20,000. Cumberland, Md.—$900. Binghampton, N. Y.—The interest on the bonds would about equal former cost of running the fire department.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—$2,500. Laporte, Ind.—$2,000. Connersville, Ind.—Our old system was two hand engines.

Kalamazoo, Mich.—$1,600. Buffalo, N. Y.—Not applicable to our case.

Auburn, N. Y.—If steamers were used, think it would cost at least four times what it does now.

Lockport, N. Y.—$11,000. Has any serious accident happened to your works or mains since their construction, and ifso, the cause?

Peoria, 111.—None. Cumberland, Md.—None, but a defective cog-wheel at first, which could not be discovered before a trial.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—None. One pump has been on the go for summer use since the opening of the works without a fortnight's rest to date.

Binghampton, N. Y.—Not the slightest, or at least nothing of account. Saratoga Springs, Y.—Several street mains have bursted, probably owing to defects in pipe.

Laporte, Ind.—None. Connersville, Ind.—None no expense. Norwalk, O.—None. Kalamazoo, Mich.—None, except at first fire after introduction of the works, when hydrant was broken by an inexperienced hydrant man.

Buffalo, N. Y.— None. Governeur, N. Y.—The pipe through the river broke from being improperly put down. No further accident to mains or works.

Vergennes, Vt.—None. Minneapolis, Minn.—None. Auburn, N. Y.—None. We have been ready for every fire.

Lockport, N. Y.—None. Columbus, O.—No accident has happened through imperfect work or material.

Has your experience in it satisfied you that the system is one which can be enlarged and extended, so as to provide for the future wants of your city as well as it does for present ones

Peoria,.111.—It does. Cumberland, Md.—Yes, sir. It will supply water in quantity for 6 miles.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—It has. Binghampton, N. Y.—I don't know but it can be extended without limit. We have extended two or three times.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—Experience so limited caunot say. Laporte, Iud.—Yes.

Connersville, Ind.—It will answer, in my judgment, for any sized city. Norwalk, O.—We can see no reason why it cannot.

Kalamazoo, Mich.—Yes, to a capacity of its use by 30,000 inhabitants, its intended capacity for this place, with its prospective increase." The size and capacity of engine and pipe (mains) should be greater in a place or city your size, but which would not probably increase the running expenses of the works.

Buffalo, N. Y.—Yes Vergennes, Vt.—If you have pumps oft sufficient capacity, tbey can be largely

extended.

Dayton, O.—Yes. Minneapolis, Minn.—Yes. We think

the Holly systsm can be enlarged to almost any extent. Auburn, N. Y.—It has:

Lockport, N. Y.—It can be extended to an almost unlimited extent. Columbus, O.—In cities of large popu lation the system would do by using more machinery.

Is the system generally, popular with your citizens, and has it met fully the guarantees of its builders, and the ex pectations of the advocates of the sys tem

Peoria, 111., Very popular, and is all that it was guaranteed to be, Cumberland, M-d., It does but at first our citizens were prejudiced against it on account of being a new system.

Ogdensburg, N. Y., Extremely popu lar. It has hot dn enemy exceeds ex peetationsaf its warmest friends.

Binghamton, N. Y., In efficiency, in deed, in every particular far exceeds the highest expectations of our citizens.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Yes, it is gen erally popular, butwe have hardly had a chance to try it yet.

Laporte, Ind., Yes. Connersville, Ind., Ifc has no one to condemn it.

Norwalk, O., We thin'k'it hks fully. Kalamazoo, Mich., Yes, fully. Buffalo, N. Y., With those supplied therewith, yes. Guarantees all fulfilled

Gouverneur, N. Y., Yes. Vergenness, Vt., Nearly so, with the exception of our service pump.

Dayton. O., It has. Minneapolis, Minn., Yes. Auburn, N. Y., It is, and has, and more than promised us.

Lockport, N. Y., Is popular, and has met the expectations of all. Columbus, O., As a general thing it gives satisfaction, especially to large tax payers.

From what source do you obtain your supply of water? Have you connected with it a system of flitration? and if so, does it purify the water so as to make it available for drinking and culinary purposes

Peoria, Ills., From the Illinois river. We do not filter the water, although we have a filter bed in connection with the works. The water is, very clear, except about a month in the spring.

Cumberland, Md.—From the Potomac river. Yes, we have a good and thorough double system of filtration, which purifies the water.

Ogdensburg, N. Y.—From the Oswe gatchie river. No system of filtration consumers filter for themselves, and pronounce it excellent

for

drinking purposes.

Is quite,soft. Binghamtotl, N. Y.—We have two wells 24 feet deep and 20 feet in diameter, located on either side of the engine house, and the water flows into them, from what source we do not certainly know. The wells are about 200 feet from the Susquehana river, gravel formation.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—A mill stream. We have a filter, and the water where used much is clear and pure we don't drink much of it, but it is good to cook with( I

Laporte, Ind.—First, from a lake second, yes third, yes. Connersville, Ind.—Our supply of •water is now taken from the hydriuilrc canal.. We expect to sink a well this Bummer.

Norwalk,. O.—So for from a small stream emptying into Huron river. The water is filtered into the well or resorvojr which so purifies it that there is no better drinking Water in the village.

NO MAN KNOWKTH HIS DESTINY."

In this young and growing couutry a firm that is true that the interests of the people, and breaks loose from the old damaging Western custom of "High Prices and Big Profits," and throwing itself upon the bosom of the loving, earnest, wideawake people of the West, distributes its merchandise fairly, honestly and cheaply we say any firm thus pushing forward, cannot tell where such a great mercantile reformation will carry it. Its members must only be true to every duty of the present, have faith in the times in which they live, and leave the rest to the development of a people and a nation that cannot be matched the broad world over.

The More Stores we Hare the Cheaper we Can Buy and Sell Our Goods.

HIGH- CARPET MEN,

We are bound to do the Carpet Trade. We can undersell you 20 per cent. We have large capital aind the very best credi t. We are buying five pieces of carpets to your one. It costs us nothing to sell carpets. It costs you £0 per cent..

You stand no chance at all of competing with us. You must bow to the inevitable and give to us the lead.

During the past year and nine months we have bent our energies chiefly to the development of our Dry Goods business. ^Having put that beyond the reach of all competitors, we now turn our attention to the Carpet Trade, and we start out with the assertion that in a very short time we shall be selling a larger amount of carpets than is sold by any retail firm in the State of Indiana. When we propose to do a thing that settles it. Everybody knows it will be done, and

We do Propose to do the Carpet Trade!

Our Carpet Room is over our Dry Goods Store, and so costs us nothing fox jjent Ifc is twenty feet wide and one hundred feet long, and is crowded with a magnificent stock of goods. Thousands of yards and thousands of dollars worth o.f -new OAR PETS, OIL CLOTHS, MATTINGS, &C., in elegant styles, for the Spring trade, hav just been received and placed on sale.

We warn the public against Bhoddy makes of Carpets, pushed off on castofflters as "Family Carpets", "Hand-loom" Carpets, fcc. "Hand-loom" Carpets are rag carpets. You could make a fine, smooth, pretty Irigrain or Brussels Carpet on a "hand-loom" about as easy as you could make a watch with a sledge hammer. "Hand-loom,"

applied to any other kind than rag carpet, simply means SHOIVDY—a carpet to

no manufacturer will put his name. If you wish only good "Power-loom
