WATER FOR THE PEOPLE.
r7I.sox ~ TIL


SIR: The people in Liverpool and London enjoy
privileges which the boosted freedom of this country
under Democratic rule, withholds from them. Both
of these great commercial cities furnish people with
water to drink at public cost, which New-York,
through its Aldermen, refuses to the poorer classes
The rich man has no need of thus street convenience.
1t is the destitute and needy and especially strangers,
from whom it is vulgar neanness to refuse cup OF
cold water.
The only objection urged against the free hydrants
by the astute and beralzed fellow who dld object,
was the waste it occssioned and the nuisance OF the
thing. What profound wisdom, especially as hydrants
are not necessarily of one form, and those 10 verPooi
waste lass water than some swinsh Aldermen when
thew drink The free hydrauts in Liverpool and Lon,
don are simple and effective, and occupy no room ana
waste nothing They merely stone canal inserted
in the wall of building. Only half OF 1t projects ana
into this the waste water flows and is carried OIL A
sell closing faucet will the water, and furnish an
ample supply for the thirsty people. wA'
