ney annually expended under the head of Street
Cleaning" in the City Of New York, forms serious
tax upon the property owners and is besides fruit
full source Of fraud and corruption. With the ex-
ception, probably, Of the Aims House contracts there
is more Juggling, chlcanery and favorism connect
ed with the street sweeping department, than with
any other branch of the corporation business
Most Of our citizens will recoect that about twenty
years ago, the street sweeping OF the city paid for
ITSELF or at least II cost nothing in the shape of tax
alton The owner or occupant of each house was
compelled by corporation ordinance to sweep the
street opposite his house to half the width OF the
street. While that ordinance was in force the streets
were regularly cleaned before six O'Clock in the
morning, and before the business of the day COM
menced, and that, too, without taxation. Now,
when we consider that for number of years past,
this business has cost the city on an average quar-
ter Of million OF dollars, without the work being
half done, we think il would be advisable to re-
trace steps, and 60 back to " first principles"
II that ordinance were restored the street sweep
ing of this city would bring "a large annual profit
into the city treasury. A cord Of street manure,
spread on a farm in this neighborhood, is worth
from one dollar to one dollar and quarter, and is
good investment at that. Thirty loads of this ma
nure to the acre, would make barren land fertile,
and convert the sandy shores Of Long Island into
gardens. Contracts could be made for the sale and
immediate removal Of the dirt, after being swept
into heaps, and the money received would 60 to-
wards diminishing the enormous taxes that are le-
Wed annually on our property owners.
We throw out these suggestions, not in the hope
that the ofocos will profit by them, but merely
tor the consideration OF the Taxpayers.
