The Water Works Committee "earnestly desire to imprefa upon the minds of the people" the important truth" (important, if true, the Committee means.) "that a vote in favor of Water Works on Thursday, will not add to their taxation." When it comes to paying the interest on 000 in bonds, issued for the coostruo tion of the Wort, the people will feel impressed more decidedly than tbey will be by the "important truth" bo gravely set forth by the Commit tee. Doubtless some of our citizens have invested in other enterprises whoso revenues were to pay all inter est and provide a tinkiog fund for the principal such as railroad and other and know exactly how the thing works.

Those who vole under the iraDrcssion. that the Water Works will never cost ttem any will veto themselves gudgeons of unusual freshness. Water Works. We print, this morning, the Address of the Wrater Works Committee to the voters of Evaosville. Failing to eeea copy of Sunday's Courier, we did not get the address until we clipped it from the Courier of yester day.

The committee, with that free dom from partisan prejudice which has thus far guided it in all its action did not favor us with a copy of tho address. It teems to have been con tent to confine its circulation to the extremely small minority of tho voters of the city which depend upon the thin gruel furnished by tho Courier, for their daily pabulum. The statement of the Courier, that 'we had a copy of tho address before ua, wIicq wc wrote the, article on Water Works which appeared in the Journal of Monday, is falsa in every particular. Tho article for the Jocn-, jjjal was written and in typo on Sat-. urday, while tho Address was withheld i from us for reasons we cannot divine.

yo- iiaVe iko Committee fairly, and the very estimate of Mr. Weir, on which the Committee asked the Council to order an election, we clipped from our files and iurnished tho Committee with the utmost' cheerfulness and pleasure. But wo are not disposed to higgle about irrelevant matters. The Courier knows, and so docs every render of the Journal, that, loog b''-re this question of Water Works assumed so much importance in tho cs-. timation of the Couriir, the Journal took decided ground in favor of the city doing tho work.

This, too, when a Council was in power and C3ull easily have chartered a private Company, had it been disposed do 60. This (act is a sufficient answer to nil the Courier's twadd'o about "heartless monopolies," and "enriching stockholders at the expense of the people." The truth is, the Courier never discovered much necessity for Water Works until it was inspired by shrewder men with the suggestion that a party ad vantage could bo mado to result from their construction. Its zeal then knew no bounds, and it has been blatant ever sinc3. One good ha3 resulted from all this discussion. Wo now have the commit-teo fiirly on the record, as they were not by their report to the Council or by tho order on which tho election is to bo held on Thursday.

On this point the Courier delivers itself as follows Let it be borne in. mind that in voting in favor of Water Works next Thursday tho people only vote in favor of permitting the Council to test the correctness of Mr. Weir's estimates by thorough examination. No contract will to made upon a basis. The Committee say: "If the people voted against Water Works, we should not feel authorized to enter into or to expend a Bin glc dollar in surveys and scientific examinations for the purpose of ascertaining the feasibility of erecting such works." It it is only the wish of the Committee to ascertain the opinion of the people with regard to Water Works, that opinion has already been Both of the political par-tics, in unusually large mass conven- ttoDf, decided in favor of Water Works being constructed by tho city.

Very -nearly or quite one thousand voters of the city were present at these conventions, and were quite unanimous in the expression of their opinion. Why, then, put the city to the expense of an election to ascer- tain an opinion that has already been given and is a matter of record. The expense of an election would almost, if not altogether, meet all the cost of a preliminary survey, if the money were applied directly to that purpose. 1 But the people do not vote on Water Works. They vote for or against a proposition authoi izing the Ci'y Council to contract with the Holly Wer Works Company, for supplying tic city with water, as per plan end esti- 1 I 1IT- II- ujaius suummeu oy tviinam Wlcr, Engineer of said Company, at a cost for eisht 7iis of 2n-, or 'about one-fifth the necessities of tl o'fy.

When the Council applies to the Holly Works Company, it will be" met at the outset as Mr. Flagler in-foiuKd the at "the Court House meeting on Friday cight-by tV i a refusal on the part of the company, to undertake the tunneling and sink ing the well. Then, unless the Committee contract with other parties, at Mr. Wier'a figures fordoing the work. the Council will have exhausted the authority con fe red by the election, and will be compelled to order another lection, or assume all the responsi bility of making contracts and spend ing money in exces3 of the estimate.

So that, view the matter in any light, tho election is premature, or it is an expensive farce. The election cannot bo regarded in Aha light in which tho Committer at tempt to placo it. It is in no sense a "direction to the Council to make suitable investigation by scientific men upon tho feasibility of obtaining an abundant supply of water." It au thority to the Council to contract for Water Works on the Weir plan and estimates, or it is nothing. It is on this question the people must vote, and wo predict that subsequent events will slow that their voting was mere tub thrown to the popular whale, something after- tho stylo of the plebhcilum in France, and just about as The true plan was, for the Council to havo mado the necessary investiga tions, to ascertain just what the Holly Water Works Company would do and what it we'uid not do; estimate the number of miles of pipe required to brin the eitire city within the fire limits, and tho possibility and cost of obtaining a good supply of pure water. Theso facts ascertained, sub mit tno wtioie tiling to the pcopu so they would know exactly what they were doing when they cast their voto These facts, needed for intcUigen voting, could be ascertained tor an amount of money not exceeding that reauired to pay the expenses, of the election faroe on the 12ih iost.

Chief Fire Engineer KoiHngt.worth'i Report. We arc indebted to Colonel IIol liogsworth, Chief Engineer of th Fire Department, for the year ending April 14th, 1870, for a copy of his re port of the operations of his department during the year. This is the Grot report of the kind that Las ever been made in our oity, and for that reason is deserving of notice. The report makes a contrast between the efficiency of the rcnent system for extinguishing fires, and what was known as tho old volunteer sjsiem, with hand engines. It details many of the.

difficulties with which the department had to contend, suoh as muddy streets, worn, out and deficient hose, and difference in the necessary couplings; and also the wholesale incendiarism, which was inaugurated the latter part of Septem ber, when as many as four and five fires occurred in a sicgle night. One of the most remarkable fires which occurred during the year, was thai in the larga furniture establishment of Meyer on. Main Street. We copy tho Eoginccrs ao count of this fire: Ho accident of a eeriou3 character has occurred to any member of tbo Department tho past -year. The same cannot be said, however, of two of our oitizens.

Oa the 13th day of January last, the fourth, story of Messrs. Meyer Bros', furniture storo. No. 42 Main Street, used as a pamting-room, was accidentally set fire to. which quickly communicated with the beozioe, turpentine, varnish and other lnnammablo material mado use of in finishing chairs and furniture, and set the whole of the fourth story on fire, together with the contents, consisting of bedsteads, chairs, alt newly painted.

Tho explosion was eo sudden, that two of tho men, at work in the room at the time, were so blinded and scorched that, in endeavoring to make theirwaydown.one of them mis took tho hatchway for the stairs, and fell to tho first floor, injuriug him so severely that he died in a short time. The other, in the confusion and excitement of the moment, ran to the rear window and sat outside on the window-sill, until tbo arrival of the "Eclipse Ilook and Ladder Company," who rescued him, amid the applause of tho crowd of citizens below. He also died in a few days af ter the accident. But for the timely arrival of the Hook and Ladder Company, he must havo perished in the flames, or elso have met death in al most ns horrifying a form, by throwing himself headlong to the pavement, The report also contains a very valuable tabular statement, giving the date and hour of every; fire, the owner of the property, tho occupant, the location, the business carried on in it, description of building, the loss, the amount insured and the supposed origin of tho fire. By this table it seems that forty-two of the fires aud fire alarms during tho year aro as cribed to incendiaries.

The total loss by firo during the year was In contrasting this with that incurred during the previous year, the Chief Engineer uses the following language: By the foregoing table, it will "be discovered that the amount of loss by fife is much less than the year preco-dirg. Although there was no report of the Chief Engineer for that year, it will be remembered, that the loss at one fire (that of Messrs. G. S. Sonn-ag lo Hardware stock and building) on iirst Street, was about seven-y thousand dollars, while the entire loss for the year just closed, is only thirty six thousand seven hundred and ninety dollars.

This iaot is brought forward to show the improved condition of the present system over the old. It may be said that the fire above referred to occurred at niht. While this is true, the alarm was given at o'clock P. before the time when persons usuallyretire from the streets and quite a large number of citizens and firemen assembled and worked hard, but in spite of efforts, the firo destroyed the contents of the first floor where it originated, and subsequently the second, third and fourth floors. The fire in thei painticg room of the Messrs.

Meyer Bro. on Main Street, which occurred on the 13th day of January last, at 5:03 p.m., may be cited os a parallel case with the Sonntagfire. The one at Meyer orici-nated in an explosion of inflammable oils, quickly spreading to ail Par, (ho a0. attention could be oaid to exhuguisnicg the flamesunt51 the unfortunate men in the ourth story window whose lives were in imminent peril could bo rescued. In doing this, five or eight minutes of valuable time was lost, thereby giving time for the fire to attain much-head way, among eucu combustible material as benzine, turpentine, The oss at this fire on stock and building, was Ices than lour thousand douars, nd the damage mostly by water.

The tcck of furniture was quite large. nl if the fire had consumed the property, an equal to seventy thousand dollars: would have been oat. From the Evansville Courier. Water Works An Address to the People. To the Voters of Evansville Tho fcubscribers were recently ap pointed a standing committee by the Common Oouncu, upon the subject or Water Yv orks.

Afier such investiga'ion as we could readily make, without too much de lay, wo reported to the Council that we were Fatisfied Water Works, upon the Holly plan, could be constructed for the ot SlbS.UUU, in round numbers, including eight miles, of unios and small pipas. We thereupon recommended that the question of the construction of Water orks should bo submitted to a vote of the people, and an election was accordingly ordered for the 12th inst. In ordering this election, we may say that we were mainly governed by this consideration: It the people voted against Water Works, we should not feel authorized to enter into negotiations, or to expend- a 6in-glo dollar in surveys and scientific examinations for the purpose of as certaining the feasibility of crec'ing such works. It the popular verdict was found in fevor of building them. then we would feel authorized to have suitable investigations made, but would not attempt to close a contract, of any character, without being clear ly informed as to the maximum cost ot every separate part ot the works, and unless we eould see clearly that the works were not to be a burthen upon the people in the way of oner oua taxes.

We desire now to say that the ex preesion of tha people on the 12th it lavorable to Water Works, as we hope it will be. will only be re garded as a direction to the Council to make suitable investigation by sci-' entinc men upon the feasibility of ob taining an abundant supply ot water; whether the water of the Ohio River may bo made pure by a process of filtration; the proper site for the works; their entire cost when completed and ready for use; the terms upon which payment is to be made, and the time when the people may tope to be supplied with water. We are satisfied that if the Holly system is put in operation in Evans ville, that it will be so popular an lm provement within the first year there after, tnat the people would not dis pose ot the Works on any account whatever. But, as prudent managers, we feel it to be our duty to guard fgunst the possibility of mistakes, winch mfght otherwise mako what was designed to be a great public benefit, a public And we earnestly desire to impress upon, the people this important truth that a vote in favor of Water Works, on Thursday, the will not, add to tLeir taxa tion, but will only authoriza us to de termine, with uncrrine certainty, the cost of supplying Evansville with pure water for domestic purposes, an abundance ot water lor manutactur icg and water in every part of the city for iho extinguishment of hres when they occur. The present sources of supply for our steam hro engines in case ot fares, our public cisterns, are confessedly inadequate to the pubiio necessaries At almost every fire the water in tho pubiio cisterns, in the immediate locality, is exhausted; and-frequently before the flames are subdued, and before the steamers can secure new positions and the hoso be removed.

the hro will burn with its original fury. To make the fire department equal to the necessities of our growin? city, a large expenditure or money is required. "Additional cisterns are needed, and a great many of them The fire apparatus must be increased. possibly another etoamer be purchased. AU this will make a heavy draft upou our revenue for the present year as time parses the ex pense will have to be repeated.

It becomes a question, then, for citizens to determine whether the time has not arrived for Evansville to secure Water which, in addition to supplying tho entire population with pure water fur the purpose of health, comfort and domestic use, will eupereede the necessity for additional outlays in the maintenance of an inadequate fire department, and will be a certain pre ventative against an extensive conflagration, even in tho most boisterous and tempestuous weather. When we repeat that these creat advantages are to be obtained witbont adding to the taxes of the people any material burttipns. and add that the water rents wilt lessen taxation as well as rates of insurance as soon as the works are in operation and aeain give assurance that -e shall take no step that is found to be impracticable, wo leel that we do not ask too much in solicitiDg the votes of all men, of all parties, in iavor ot Water orks at the special election called for next Thursday.
