Members of the city council direc tors of tho Chamber of Commerce and other ij.tlzens met last evening to disciiBs a drainage proposition that would roBitU in taking care of the water which Hows from tho west through tho city both north and south of the railroad tracks. The solution of this water problem seems to bo the construction of a drainage ditch west of tho second ('oily Addition running north under the railroad track and emptying into the Irrigation ditch at a point west of the cometory. Tho south end of tho ditch would be at a point on a parallel with a con tinuation of A street. The co3t of tU'.B ditch would not be less than $15,000 to which would need be added the purchase of right-of-way. A ditch for a similar purpose was constructed a number of years ago and seemed to servo tho purpose dur ing Hood times, but as those Hoods did not occur eacli year tlio ditch was not taken care of and eventually drifted full of .sand and the company filled i the culvert which had been placod undor tho track. Whether this ditch will lower the water level and tond to keep out the inflow of water into basements is a dobatablo one, some .insisting that is wUl, others that it will not. .It would seem probablo that If this Hood water from the west is kept from flowing through the street ditches, a portion of which undoubtedly sinks into tho ground, it would havo some "uffect on the water lovol.
