What Does Fargo Get for Its Money? = 2 After analyzing the letter of the City Engineer of Fargo published in last nights Tribune, we gain the following information, The Jatyuary cost (this is a high cost month, the average being much lower) of delivering water in the City of Fargo was 17 cents per thousand gallons. The engineer then atempts fo ar- rive at the cost to property ownérs including cost of mains, etc., and concludes that this would bring the total cost:to 40 cents per thousand gallons to proper- ty owners, Fargo is paying for its plant over a twen- ty year period. After that time the plant will be paid for, and owned free of debt by the people of Fargo. WHAT DOES BISMARCK GET FOR ATS MONEY? Bismarck citizens pay-50 cents per thousand gal- lons for water. This is unfiltered water. It has paid this rate for thirty odd years, and the Bismarck Wa- - ter Supply Company still owns the plant. We can keep on doing this for twenty years and the Bismarck Water Supply Company will still own:the plant. WHAT DOES FARGO GET FOR ITS : MONEY? : Filtered water. Safe water. Plenty of it. Am- ple fire protection. At cost.' Owns its own plant.” WHAT DOES BISMARCK GET FOR ITS MONEY? Unfilteder water. Sometimes unsafe. - “Muddy at: at times. Poor pressiire. At a long price. The Wa- ter Company owns the plant. WHAT IS THE REMEDY?
