To the Editor Of che 1merican:


The following, on the water question, which
is to be decided by tie voters of this city, at
the coming election, has already appeared in
city paper. / send it to you with the sugges-
ton that you give it the benefit of your circu-
lation. 1t is question on which every voter
should think deeply before he votes The
modes of obtaining the water indicated, are
neither Of them so fixed in the writer's mind
that he would not cheerfully give his adhesion
to any other from any quarter that would pro-
mise better results. The only thing that he is
irreversibly opposed to is debt.
The manner in which the question is put to
the voters by the city ordinance, does not seem
fair and direct They are to vote "For the
Water" or, "against the Water" The ques-
ton should be "For debt or, Against debt"
For one, am in favor Of having the water, but
shall be obliged to vote against the water"
because am opposed to debt A mode of OBJ
tanning the water, and only temporarily instead
of permanently increasing our burdens, would
be to get from Congress such an alteration the
City Charter as will cnable the councils to inn
pose an additional tax Of twenty-five cents on
the hundred dollars This will produce from
sixty to seventy thousand dollars year,
and in about four years, If used gradually
as collected, would lay all the pipe and hydrants
we want in the public streets. The tax can
then be RENTED, and the expense Of keeping
the hydrants in repair can be paid from the mo-
neys received from those who may chooseto have
the water brought upon their premises; and If
any remains, it could be applied either to the
school fund, or to the gradual redemption Of
our enormous city debt.
Another mode would be to assess the expense
on the property along the streets in which the
pipe is laid, in the way thatpayements are laid
for IL who did not get It.
We have already funded debt Of over seven
hundred thousand dollars, and an unfundcd one
of at least hundred thousand. On this I'M
funded debt we have been paying yearly for
twenty five years, without benefit to anybody
but capitalists, by affording them convenient
investment Of their money, more than forty
thousand dollars, amounting in the aggregate to
upwards of million Of dollars II is now pro-
posed to add aquartcr Of million to this fund
ed debt, thus mourning yearly payment Of
fifteen thousand dollars interest for an indefi-
nate period. As this cannot be met without
increased taxation, allow me to suggest to those
highly respectable and welLmeaning citizens
who have brought this subject to the consider
alton Of the voters--wbethcr IL would not be
wise TO add at once little more to the taxes
and not to incur the debt.
With Kingdoms, states, counties, cities, towns,
villages and individuals, the custom Of borrow
ing for every emergency has become so much
the rule, that no other mode is ever thought Of.
Let us of this Metropolis turn over new leaf
establish new custom--and pay as we go.
