CITY SHOULD OWN ITS WATER
PI /ANT
The statement has been made re-
peatedly in ibis paper that the coun-
cil that grunted the wa'cr franchise
was grossly ignorant or criminally
corrupt and the statement lias gone
unchallenged. Every new develop-
ment proves the truth of the asser-
tion. it now develops that in addi-
tion to the $1,000 per your paid for
tire protection to 1-2 the city and
the exhorbitani charges to private con
Burners for poor water and inferior
service the city must pay $;ih0 or
$000 per year for water for flushing
the sewers.
The more the whole tiling Is stud-
ied the more it looks like a case of
stand and deliver.
a year to the water company for the
fire protection property owners are
entitled to. The Democrat favors
city ownership.

RAMONA, .Tune 2S.—The demo-
cratic club of this town Is outspoken
against the prohibition clause of the
statehood enabling act.
The club declares that ilia afore-
said prohibition clause, to stand for
25 years, “is not in consonance and
harmony with the republican form of
government under which we li\e. It
is subversive of liberty and happi-
ness.”. Of what value is statehood,
with beer outlawed, and rye whisky
$2.tin aa quart? These being our
sentiments, can we refuse to write
lbe constitution to he framed at (.uth-
rie?
If the constitutional convention
I does deface the constitution by in-
, , sertlng the hated prohibition clause
in it, can the first stale legislature
repeal the vile clause? If not, what
will it cost to have the constitution
ses, interest on the investment and i amended?" The above questions will
'lie discussed by members of the club
at their next, meting.
