WALLACE Xormatlon, address J. R.UOOPIER. President AGAIN ! The Expositor Is In Receipt of Another Letter Regarding the Waterworks Ouestlon. To The Yalo Expositor: As this is U very important question, and one in which every taxpayer in the village is interested, whether they realize it or not, it becomes us as citi zens having the welfare of the village at heart, to weigh well every argument, pro and con, and give both sides care ful and intelligent consideration, and so be governed in action relative there to. It is said in its favor, and perhaps with some degree of force, that the village is "old fogy" and behind the times, not having these modern up-to-date improvements; also that it is a very nice thing to have waterworks for the conveniences we could have in our houses bath tubs, water closets, sew erage, etc.: also that, with a good sys tem of waterworks the insurance on our property would be reduced at least "JO to 30 per cent, an amount that would offset the tax required, even if we were taxed, which is claimed we would not be, as the works would be self-sustaining from the start, enough subscribers taking hold of its use to pay the interest on the bonds, and from a sinking fund to eventually pay the principal. Again it is said that it would be a good thing from a sanitary standpoint in getting rid of the sewer age and waste of the village. These are about the size of the arguments urged by those who favor the works. On the other side it is argued that if we had the waterworks it would be necessary to have a sewerage attach ment, which instead of proving an abatement of a nuisance it would create a far greater one, as the main sewer would have to empty into Mill Creek at some point, which it is admit ted would be all right provided enough water came down Mill Creek to carry off what the sewer deposited in it. JJut it is claimed that the creek be comes a stagnant pool during the sum mer months, and especially in dry sea sons is nearly empty, and is getting more so year by year as the upper swamps west of us are being cleared up. That being the case it is asked what kind of a sanitary condition would the. village be in, if, as would naturally be expected, all the cess pools of the village were deposited in the basin below the llapley House and without .any means to move it, while the hot summer sun, days iu succes sion, pours down its rays? Surely.it is said, we would have a pestilence. Again, the objection is brought up, doubts are raised and the Question asked what insurance company will step to the front and guarantee 30, 20, or even 10 per cent cut in their rates? Again, in reference to the statement that enough voluntary subscribers for the U9e of the water would take Jiold of the scheme to make it a paying con cern. Objectors say: Who is going to stand sponsor for this promise and put their names in black and white to that effect? It is also urged in reference to this statement, that it is not enough to say, other villages the size of Vale have succeeded in tins plan, as they can furnish evidence that other towns with far more pretentions, and with more favorable conditions, were ''land ed in the soup' as a consequence of giving too much credence to the glit tering promises of interested parties. nu it is also asked in this connection that if thi3 scheme was a "dead sure" thing and could be made to pay itself, its running expenses and lay by enough each year to get back the principal in a few years, why don't those who are so anxious for the scheme to go through, put up their own cash when such a good thing is in sight? This is looked upon as suspicious and as show ing a lack of commence in their own statements. It is also claimed by those opposed to the scheme that although from 814,000to $20,000 is given as an esti mate of the probable eost, these ligures are given by Mac Walker, an interested party, and no guarantee olfered that it wont take j?."0,000 or even more, as such things are of frequent occurrence and village corporations have found out when too late that they allowed themselves to be hoodwinked by smooth tongued agents who have lightning rods to sell. It is also object ed to by many, that in voting to bond the village it just simply means, we are putting a mortgage on our homes that will have to be redeemed sooner or later. Another argument being used against the scheme is that it will prevent the growth of the village, inas much as excessive taxation is a sure way, not only of keeping out prospec tive industries,' but also have a tenden cy to drive out those already here. Let the subject be ventilated all around and let us hear your arguments on both sides. Another Taxpayer. There Is Nothing So Good.

The bladder was created for one pur pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from carele?9 local treatment of other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womb, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage, is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. Tho error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To tind out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty-four hours, a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the extraordinary elfect of Dr. Kilmer's Swanip-Koot, the great kidney, and bladder remedy is soon realized. If you need a medicine you should have the best. At druggists fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail, upon receipt of three two- cent stamps to cover cost of postage on the bottle.
