Report of Water Commissioner Welch.
Having been nskfcd as to the conditions of th water department I submit
below a portion of a report upon this subject submitted to the city council on
February 3, 1914. This report coyers the first twenty months of operation
of the water works by tho city, commencing April 1, 1912, and ending Decem
ber 1, 1913. This porfod of time is taken so that a comparison can bo made
between the new and old pumps as all water pumped during tho first ten months
(April 1, 1912 to February 1, 1913) wns pumped by the oid pumps and all the
water pumped durtf6 tho last ten months (Fob. 1, 1913 to December 1, 1913)
was pumped by thii'now pump, based on tho amount of coal used and tho
pressure malntainq'qT'tho now pump pumps water 30 per cent cheaper than tho
old pumps. i'

A plant whethetprivate or municipal, to be a success, should make suf
ficient above operating expenses to pay the interest on the bonded indebtedness
taxes, an onnual payment Into tho sinking fund for paying oir the bonds and
an annual payment into n depreciation nccount for rebuilding the plant when
worn out. From tho above gross profit should therefore be deducted tho follow
ing items and amounts:
Interest on $100,000 bonds at 5 percent $5,000.00.
Taxes ( (estimated from those paid by old company) 1,018.04
Sinking fund to pay bonds at end of 20ycnrs. 3,024.00
Depreciation fund toHtimoting life of plant at 41 years 1,300.00
Total $10,942.04
As wo do not pay taxes and tho Interest on the bonds is paid by gencrnl
taxation, it would not bo nccessury to raiso this extra sum amounting to
$0,018.04 for water? Atets provided tho plant were free of debt, was in first
class repair and extensions to mains were not mado out of tho earnings, or in
other words, wo cou7d reduce water rates sufficiently to wipe out tho above
excess earnings. However, this cannot be dono at the present time nlthough
I believe some reduction can bo mado on water rates aj suggested later with
out materiolly reducing our revenue. Our plant is still in debt due to tho
large amount of new construction, which li being paid for from tho earnings
and it will bo from sjx to nino months yet before this debt will be entirely
wiped out.
Below I givo a statement of all receipts and disbursements made from
tho timo tho city foolc the plant on April 1, 1912, to Docember 1, 1913, n period
of 20 months. Tin's statement shows just where tho earnings have gone and
just what amount of debt still remains to bo paid.
