Leave all existing franchises as they are so long as they are carried out to the letter of the contract. In the future I favor an income to the city on all franchises. I believe all contracts with the city should be carried on promptly and up to the contract WATER SYSTEM I do not favor going to the expenso of remodeling our entire water works system, as I think the machinery and pipe lines are ample for the present needs of the city. The fault lies in getting pure water from the ground to the pumps. With my practical experience in getting water I feel competent to remedy this, and have clear water all the time. If in sympathy with my views I will greatly appreciate your support ふ ふ ふ decide on a Choice! For Member School Board. Hon Charles K. Holliday was forced into the race for member of the school board.
