WATER CONSUMERS MUST PAY THER BILLS OR Wi and it will not be turned on again until all bills are paid and a fee of one dollar paid for again turnll}g it on. This is the mandate issued by the superintendent of the water depart- ment and it is to bé enforced. There is absolutely. no reason why a part of the water consumers of the city ‘should pay their bills and oth- ers not pay ome ‘cent or allow their bills -to_ run for months and years. There is going to be a new deal in the business conduct of the water de- partment. For some years there has been practically no system of collec- tion of bills. In some instances there is absolutely mo meters in service, in other instances the meters are brok- en, and still other instances where water pipes have been tapped by pri- vate individuals above meters and de- liberately. stolen. Bills have not been paidfor as high as three years, and the Tevenue that has maintained the water de- partment has been paid by those who pay their dills. There is to be no more neglect nor instances of ‘‘spe- cial dispensation.” business and consumers will pay their bills or be refused water. Pay your water bills. ILL IN HOSPITAL E.. H.
