SOMEWHAT N1TTLED OVER THE MATTER Kaadaea Saya He Will Meet Con - aaerelal Vlmh Jaat th 8aaae and ' Preaeat Hla Praaed g. latUa of faaestlca. The announcement that Councilman Knudaen, member of th special water work committee, had a proposition to of fer which he bellevea will prove a aolutlon for the .Water worka problem,. Councilman Wallac. chairman of th commute, de clared yeaterday waa newa to him and likewise to th other two member of the committee, ha believed. The fact that Councilman Knudaen had ' some ' plan to propote without consulting him as chair man of the apeclal .committee, I waa evi dently, somewhat dlspleaain to Mr. Wal lace. councilman Wallace Insists that mu nicipal ownership of the water work plant is still feaalbli The fact that th city council, when fixing th last tax levy, failed to make a levy for the sinking fund for th purchase of the water worka waa taken aa an Indication that that body had com to th conclusion that the ac quirement by the city of th plant toy pur chase waa not under existing conditions feasible. Councilman Younkerman, al though admitting that It Is time that the city council did something In the matter, declared yesterday that the council la committed to municipal' owWrah'lp and that he for one intends to redeem his pledge to the people. ' ' "W have already apent aeveral thousand dollars on th water worka problem, look ing to It acquisition by the city, but to day we ar no nearer to atom arrange ment thaa w were three years ago. It's time for tanrlbla results or a complete change of method or procedure," said Mr. Younkerman. Wallace Net Advised. Councilman Wallace also denied yeater day any knowledge of the proposed confer ence between the apeclal water worka committee and the executive committee of the Comnierrlal club . tomorrow " afternoon. On the other hand Councilman Knudsen declares ' that he wfl be there ready to aubmit hla pro position for, a settlement of th question, whether the other members are present or not. That the business men of the city 'are growing Impatient over' the" inactivity of the city council In th matter of the water works question. President McDonald of, the Commercial club stated yeaterday was very apparent, but It apparently did not make any Impression on -th- member of that body. "It 1 not that th city council haa not done this or ' that, or the .other thing, but that It has don nothing at all. Is what the business men complain of. Th business Interest of the city demand some Immediate action and thla the coim cilmen should realise. Th proposition ap peara to me ' as -it doe to other business men, perfectly plain. It Is a mere waste of time arid words tq talk, of municipal ownership. The city Is going to continue, getting water through the, praaent plant and th present plant will continue under piivat ownership. The failure on th part ot tha authorltle to recognise thla U preventln. the aecuring of tenalona.' Personally, 1 fall to sea how the report of Expert Kterated can possibly alter the vitally Important condltlona," said President McDonal4. , ., Manager Hart of the water work com pany declined yeaterday to. dlacuai th mat ter further, aaylng that hla vlewa on the situation had already been- made public, but h reiterated that hla company waa prepared to make the Improvement de manded by th business Interest of the city -the moment th city council mad It possibl for It to do so. - - Ender'a -dollar safety raaor wtU ahav th toughat beard.
