bonds for a waterworks system ,
which appears to have been begun
and the proposition is being ad-
vertised. At present they have
no means of fighting fires except-
ing with chemicals and a bucket
brigade. They are discussing the
propriety of a reservoir on the
hill , built of cement , and we think
they will wisely choose this plan
if some representative of a steel
corporation doesn't make them be-
lieve that it can be built cheaper
of steel , but in that case the tank
would probably be located on the
hill for the benefit of the wat < ? r
pressure or force for fighting fire.
There is some division of senti-
ment in this as in other cities re
garding plans , but in the main
they are for the bonds and for fire
protection. '
,
Wood Lake has a school build-
ing of commodious proportions
and located on the elevation east
of the depot or center of town and
it is necessary to have the reser-
voir considerably above this to se-
cure proper water force.
There are several general stores
in this village , a good hotel , two
livery ; stables , a blacksmith shop ,
mpat market two hardware lum-
ber and furniture stores two pool
halls two banks a coal dealer ,
two M. D's and and an opera
house. . - .
