WaTer Meeting. ~
A mass meeting was held at the
county court house Wednesday after-
noon to discuss the city’s \ater prob-
lem. The present situation was pre-
sented by Mayor Miller, who acted as
chairman, after which the meeting
was turned over for a general dis-
cussion by those present. It was
soon apparent that all had been done
that could be done for temporary re-
lief! and the speakers with one ac-
cord, tool! up the question of a per-
manent water supply. Several plans
were discussed one way and another
but the plan which seemed to receive
the most favorable consideration was
what is known as the Indian creek
proposition. Those who advocate this
proposition recommend the erection of
a large dam across Indian creek about
3 or 4 miles north of town.
On motion of Judge F. M. Bowen,
which was duly seconded, the meeting
unanimously recommended that the
mayor and council secure a competent
engineer and make a detailed study
of the proposition and of any other
proposition which they might think
feasible for procuring a permanent
water supply for Coleman.
