Tin so are only a few of the many things that

not appreciate the progress that has boon made.
This advancement has U-on stxMirixl without any
hardship and there are quite a groat many
things that Middleburg should have and their
usi fiilm s is so groat th it we can not allord to
neglect them. Chiel among these is
W.VTF.K Wokks.
It is high time that tho Horn Fat'. us awaken
to a sense ol duty and provide sonic means to
supplv this want. In the first place, there is an
absolute necessity tor this for the protection ol
our homes and projxTty against the ravages ol
tire. In the svond place, wo need it for con
venience of our homes and for the protection of
our drinking water from the germs of disease.
There is an absolute demand on the part
of our citizens for this protection ami
convenience. If the Council needs any
evidence of this demand outside of the clam
oring of the citizens, let them observe how
many citizens have already provided themselves

One large user of water, the Middleburg
tannerv, lias lecn allowed to provide his own
supply; the Washington House and a nunil)er
of private citizens are thinking of doing the
same thing. Are the members of the Council
going to turn a deaf ear to all these requests.
Give us pure mountain water and a sewer to
carrv e9 the filth. Our wells are contaminate,!,
because the drainage of the manure yards, sta
ble? and cess pools on the hill are wafted into
our wells and unconsciously we swallow the
germ ol disease and entire families are thrown
