The city council lias under advise
ment a proposition for enabling the
people of Valdez tc build a substan
tial breakwater across the llat above
iown, which will divert ail of the
water of the glacier stream into the I
Fake stream. The plan is to secure,
if possible, the passage of a bill
through congress allowing the town
fco issue bonds fo^ an amount outti
fienttodo the work properly next
Meason. It is thought such a bill will
meet with no opposition, and as the
cost of the work will not exceed $15,
•00, the bonds can be retired by the
town within ten years without plac
ing any great burden on the tax-pay
ers. The glacier stream work costs
the city annually more than $1500,
and by the expenditure of the lump I
mini next summer there would be no
necessity for further oxpenae, and a
large part of the townsite which is
now unused, would become valuable.
The plan is a sensible one and every
property owner should sign the p«ti- ;
feion to congress asking for the pas
of such a bill.
