That the People May Know
This is not an advertisement but
simply a few facts regarding tbo coming
election
First The Republican ticket is try
ing to make this flection a wet cr
dry fight when really there is no
such question at issue All the Citizens
ticket requires of the saloons is That
they conform to the law such ns selling
liquor to minors habitual drunkards
and keeping the proper hours The law
nays they shall dotheae things ood the
Cuizens ticket believes the law should
be enforced
VhCOND The Republican nominees
say if remember that word if the Mc
Cook Water Works Company persists in
violating the ordinances of the City of
McCook and shall not supply water at
rates that are just and reasonable to the
consumer the cityshould atoce enter
upon the installation of a municipal
plant When facts are the McCook
Water Works Company has refused to
obey the ordinances of the City of Mc
Cook and have a suit pending iu the
Supreme Court at this moment costing
the city plenty -of good money that
should bo spent in improving and beau
tifyiug our city The Citizens platform
snys the city should work with all possi
ble speed to instal a municipal plant
sufficient to supply all our people with
water for domes tic use and fire protec
tion because the people said so by their
votes Just spring
The ureenX plant has about 62 000
feet of main laid over this town 37000
feet of which fs 3 inch cast iron Mr
Darrow the water works special engi
neer swore in court that there was no
fire protection procuied through a 3
inch main Thus you will see that over
one half of our fair city is at the mercies
of fire
The Question is
Snail the McCook Water Works Co
consisting of about nine individuals be
orotected in making a bad deal and
leave more thanoue half of our citizen
to the mercies of the fire On the re
verse the Uitiz ns ticket f ays protect
the people Vote the Citizens ticket
and prevent the raid Signed

as to Taxes
They raise their talk about taxes in
creasing in case the new city plant is
built The bonds have been voted and
executed and registered Now if the
old water company gets hold of them
for us old plaut instead of the city
getting a new ample up to date plain
lor the bonds there will be cause for
kicking as the old plant has reached its
limit ot usableness and the next otep the
city would have to take would Oe -more
bonds for rebuilding the old plant
Which will you have the old plaut for
the bonds or a new plant Its up to
you
N w as to the taxes It is true that
the law provides tor the levying of taxes
to protect bonds when they are voted
That is true and that is too only fact
that the water company wants you to
think about The amount required to
s i pHy the iuterest on our bunds is 5100
1 j and thats what they want to rivet your
1 1 attention upon They want ro keep in
i i the hu birr liiiS flm 519 l0 fir oiah ro
I nftints frmn thn ninninis nf th nlnnr
Dont you see where the S5100 will
come from It will come from the 12
09686 Dont foreet that Shoot it
J j back at them
K But as to the bonds It is true the
tax will be levied and it might be that
during the year of building the works
Jand before they begin running the S5 100
might be collected How much will
that cause ou to paj Well if you are
an average taxpayer such as pays an the
I average valuation of 8125 for household
j goods and piano the 85100 would cause
I you to pay exactly 19 cents more for the
contents of your home That wont hurt
I much But dont you think the 12
096 S6 will take caie of the interest But
if it wont and you have to be taxed for
an old or a new plant anyway wouldnt
you rather be taxed for the new ample
and modern city plant than for the old
worn out plant Note the Citizens
ticket and make certain of the new
plant Signed
Citizen Committee
Now Is the Time
The present price of water pipe is
53200 per ton laid down in McCook as
against 84800 figured by Mr Darrow in
h s appraisal of the old plant rendered
January 31 190S Now is the time to
build the plant while the price of pipe
and material is low Vote the Citizens
ticket and make certain the building of
the plant Signed

The New City Water Plant
City Engineer Meeker has complied
with the request of the city council and
submitted plans and specifications for
the new city water plant They provide i
for a system of ten wells as compared
with six wells in the old plant for a
pump bouse equipped with the latest
pumping machinery for an elevatod
tank on the hill northwest of A C
Eberts large bouse and orchard in the
northwest part of the city for a 16 inch
mam uptown to Dennison street for a
12 inch main from there to the tank for
a 10 inch main along Dennison street
for a 10 inch main across the town on II
street along north side of paik for an
8 inch main ou Main avenue or 6 inch
maius on all the other north and south
streets of the city for a 6 inch muiu to
Vst McCook for a 6 inch main east in
S utu McCook to the city limits for 4
incb lateral mams in West and South
McCooks for 600 service connections to
connect consumers to t le new plant
without individual expense ail for the
S8500Ll00 bond voted by the city Does
mat look good toou Wouldnt you
rather have that new ample up to uate
plant ii Hurtling abundance of pressure
as well as actual fire protection than
to have the city pay the S830U0 00 over
for the old woin out and out grown
olaut of the water company with it
seven miles of little 3 inch pipe strung
all over our oit The old plant cuuuot
be extended to outljing districto uutil
the inside lines are dug up and replaced
with ample sizej mains The old plant
never was adequate even for McCook 27
years ago wheu it was built Now witn
a growing city of 5 00 people here
which will contaiu 10000 people within
another 10 years it is to ton
sider the matter of buying the old plant
let that is the plan and the hope yes
atd the expectation of the water com
pany if they can elect the Republican
ticket The Republican onn 1 hiatus rx
press confidence in the water company
We ripclare the confidence is misplaced
and we take no share in it We pxpect
to build the new water works this pres

would have been since Prof Hou o has
