G. W. Giffen moved to table the amendment but subsequently withdrew his motion. Mr. Carr made a strong speech in defense of his contention.

It is stated that at Angels Camp water is being sold at ten cents a bucket, that at Valley Spring twentyfive cents is charged for watering a ton Mail is told by a man that. on the Fourth of July he hadpaid a dime fora drink of water in one of the foothill towns. = The cause of this state of things is said to be twofold, In the first place, where there used to be twenty feet of snow in that part of the mountains there were but two feet last year, and the water supply is consequently searce now and will be until the rains set in. Besides this, a water plant is being put in near Jackson, Amador county, which will consume a large quanity of the flow coming down the ditch there, and is is expected that the price for water will increase. According to the story told by the Mokelumne Hill man, the people think it is a good time to accustom themselves to high prices. Tonight’s Band Concert.

It is stated that at Angels Camp water is being sold at ten cents a bucket, that at Valley Spring twentyfive cents is charged for watering a ton Mail is told by a man that. on the Fourth of July he hadpaid a dime fora drink of water in one of the foothill towns. = The cause of this state of things is said to be twofold, In the first place, where there used to be twenty feet of snow in that part of the mountains there were but two feet last year, and the water supply is consequently searce now and will be until the rains set in. Besides this, a water plant is being put in near Jackson, Amador county, which will consume a large quanity of the flow coming down the ditch there, and is is expected that the price for water will increase. According to the story told by the Mokelumne Hill man, the people think it is a good time to accustom themselves to high prices. Tonight’s Band Concert.
