brie! resume of the water works. of
the city and stated that a practical lil-
ter had been favored .hy the compile.
sinners and the special committee ap
pointed by Mayor Dow to investigate,
filters. He brought out the point that.
the fee would not Interfere with a
covered acreage filter and that it would.
be the most practical kind. There is
plenty of sand .within a short distance
of the rcservbir which could be used In
the construction of llitpr. Mr.
the
llatch showed that there would be a
very slight loss of water bead resul-
tant from the construction of a filter.
He showed the fallacy of the city's
buying Individual filters as has been '
proposed by some. There are over
1000' families In the town and a illicr
for each family would entail considera-
ble expense and necessitate much
work;
Commissioner Swarts then described
the proposed filter saying that It would
be practically a building covering an
acre and a quarter and about twelve
feet high with roof over it. This would
be filled with trap rock, gravel and
sand leaving about six feet for .wat-
or. it will be divided Into five sec-
tions and. two men can clean the five
sections In one month. There will
also be a secondary. filter whichmiil.
be used four months during the sum-
mer. The cost will. be $60. 000. and
the cost for ma'lntenance will be $4, 000
per year. The water department sur-
plnsI of Income last year was 811,600
over all disbursements.
This would still leave $8. 000 ”to the
good" for extensions of the water sys-
tem and repairs. Mr. Bwartz said
tliatpeopie have not had tbeIr money‘s
worth. and the plain truth is that a
filter.is.ti.ecessary. "We will give you
good water and you can vote on it one
way or the other.” He closed with
a round of applause from the meeting.
Nelson Taylor took the ground that
the matter should be more fully gone
into. He believed that it should be
carefully looked, up to see if the filter
would really do what is claimed for it,
whether it would remove disease
germs and if it could be built for the
amount of money asked. ,
Tillman answered Mr. Taylors
quostions stating that the city of Ai-
bany had built a filter at a cost of
about $40,000 an acre. which is the
accepted cost of construction. He al-
so showed that the filter-would do the
work.
Robert Pierson called attention to
the fact that New Haven is building
it send filter at a coat of 8260.000. A
private company and a monopoly ls do-
Ing that for the beneilt of its custom-
ers. .. Certainly the city should do as
well by Its customers. .We havo .a
monopoly here and we should build
this filter. I am glad to see that the
commissioners have come to their 4::cn-
ses after ten years of -waifin,. (Apr
plausel
He further said that the city was
not treating Its customers honestly. He
believed that It should be voted as
quickly as possible.
Water Commissioner Smith then
read a letter from Pittsburg, where
such a filter as is proposed here is to
lag Mr. Taylor that the committtoe had
gone very carefully Into the matter of
cost and that the filter could he built
for the amount salted. He called at-
tentlon to a number of 'eaperlmpnts
which have been made, ahowi that
ltratlon mmoyea the odorau aIu tho
nplor as well as disease germs.
Mr. Swarta stated that the contrac-
lor who Is building the New Haven fil-
ter had offered to build the filter for
550. 000. A bid has also been received
(rein Indianapolis, offering to build it
for 860, 000.
Charles E Hoyt and Herbert A.
Mathewson were appointed tellers and
the ,hailotting commenced. When the
slips of. paper were counted it was
found that 190 ballots were cast. of
these 96 were necessary for a choice.
Those voting In favor of the filter num-
bered 186 and those opposed to it 6.

priating $6,000 was then read, a so one

author of the resolution to explain the

need of having a dumping ground for
garbage. He said that the present
dumbing grounds are used up and be:
coming a nuisance to the adjoining
property owners.. They insist that a
change be made, and some other place
chosen. He described the LOWIIdOB
property which It was proposed to pur-
chase. The land is ninety feet front
and over 1,000 feet deep. It would
take ten years to exhaust this as a
dumping ground and bringing It up to
a level. There Is a dock on the prop-
erty which is somewhat out of repair.
lie thought that the city might as well
improve its own property rather than
be improving private property. The
wharf. is favored by the electrical com-
misisoners. as . they will eventually
have to movenesrer the water. so that
they can secure coal more economical-
ly. The street commissioners also have
been compoliedIto waste thousands of
dollars by not being-able to store stone
for~ the streets. Dr. Kendall believed
that the city should buy the property
at “.000, even I! the people did not
see fit. to go ahead with the Improve-
ments at this time. The cost of putting
the wharf in. shape would be 85. 000
more.
Christian Swarta then spoke in fa-
vor of the proposed purchase. bring-
Iug' out the point that It is the most
available placelor dumping ground in
the city. and that it In much needed.
Councilman Wright called attention
to the fact that there isno road to the
wharf and that the expenditure almon-
ey for repairs to the wharf might not
be necessaryfor some years to come.
..lobn Ii. Nicholson spoke against the
resolution. He called attention to the
fact that while the garbage Is used for
filling in private property. It also
makes taxable property. He. also
stated that the distance of hauling the
Io ds would entail greater expense. lie
as d that stone could be brought here
more cheaply by freight cars than to
store It on a :wharf. He believed that
the city could get all .the dumping
ground necessary gratis.
Dr. Kendall minted some of Mr. Ms-
Mahon's arguments In regard to the
cost of crushed atone, 'There who con-
siderable argument over the matter.
Joseph Tammany said that theeity
property in the past. and had neglect-
ed. to do so. This same property has
risen to many times the original val-
no. and he called attention to the fact
that the city is curios private persons »
for wharfagie, and why should it not
own dock property and rent it to pri~
vale parties. and make a little money
on; the deal? He did not want to see
money squandered or taxes raised. but .
he did want to sea the city own a . .

he resolution to appropriate 36. 000
was then read and seconded. This did
not contemplate spending the addi-
