MOINES, Dec. 15.—(Spectal.)—The of Des Molnes is confronted with about the hardest proposition ever presented to a city, and it is In connection with the ef- forts which bave been made the last three or four years to have the government build an army post near Des Moines. The latest phase of the case is likely to bring the matter into city politics next spring in a manner to cause much bitterness in the campaign. The government has insisted on the local committee’s living up to its agroe- ment to have city water supplied at the | army post. The water company, which s | now uwned by capitalists in the east, hay 604 Mynster | rotused to lay the mains out into the coun try for the poor chance of selling enough w to the government to pay for the same. The army post committee finally in- Auced the water company (o agree to put the mains out on certaln conditions and in accordance with this agreement the city council was induced to pass a resolution which provides that the city loan the water | company an amount, not exceeding $50,00( that the city is to pay the water company the usual $350 rental per mile for the mains. It 18 preposed to take $50,000 now held in the water fund and use it for this loan and to do this is will be necessary to secure permisefon from the legislature.

Extreme condi tlons, hrwever, were encountered at New Orleans, and the exact method that would prove most successful—first cost of opera tion and excellence of results being all im portant—had to be ascertalned, and both the sewerage and water board and the pub lie had to have ocular demonstration of the practicability of the project neral Suprintendent Earl of the N Orleans seweraze and water board, and collaagues advised that the experiment he made, and planned the same on an elaborate scale. There accordingly, erected a complete laboratory and four small but pe fect water purification systems, with the necosrary pump rnl boller capacity to op crats them. These four systems were op rated continuoudly from December, 1900, to August, 1901, and the exact condition of the water, both chemically and blologically It entered each system, and at every stage of its pazsage through, and again as it lef each system, was carefully recorded.
