Sixty-five miles of wood water mains now being used by the eity water department must be replaced at an enormous expenditure of money within the next few years, the department of water having already started the work on a small seale, according to Commissioner Fassett today. The proposition opens up one of the most serious connection in some time. probable, says with the water department, presented Mr.

Fassett, that the cost of these new mains can be assessed to the property served, as other new mains are now installed, because the consumers using them already have water and under the law undoubtedly can not be made to pay. The cost, therefore, must be taken out of the water revenue, now overburdened with extension and interest charges. Besides this phase of the problem, protests against the replacement of the mains out of the revenue will probabiy be made in large numbers, on the ground that this method of financing the replacement places a double burden on those consumers who during the Just two years have had to pay for new water mains by assessment. Besides direct1y paying for their own mains they will indirectly have, to pay for replacing mains for other consumers, since the cost will be paid out of the water revenue. must be realized." said Commisaloner Fassett today, "that the mains to be replaced, mostly on the north hill districts and in Lincoln Heights on the South Side, are now paying a good revenue, which not the case in regard to mains put in under the assessment system since that plan of extension was adopted.

While It inevitable that certain Injustices will result from a change in the system of paying for water mains, this phase must be considered." LATTER SAINTS MEET AT SALT LAKE April SALT LAKE. Utah.
