The amendment was agreed 10.
Er. Wilson moved N amend by inserting
/ pro'lso that the improvement shall NOT prsju-
dice existing rights; which was agreed TO-
mr.. Noyes offered an amendment providing
fEot the revenue 70 % derived from TIN. in,

| enth Ward
Mr.. n. said that as the central wards were
inclined 70 cast reproach upon the Seventh
Ward for her poverty, they would doubtless
see the justice and propl ely OF permitting that
ward 10 avail herselfo of such sources Of re venue
within her limits.
Mr.. N. u. Larner opposed the amendment.
Mr.. {. Wilson said that the Seventh Ward
had been robbed, hal been made 10 build sea-
walls and open streets 10 accommodate the
center wards. They (the Seventh Ward) did
not want these Improvements and were nat
benefited thereby, and il WAS a id good rea-
son for being poor
Mr.. d. Larner called the gentleman to order.
Such Language was un becoming in the cham
Der.
Mr. Wilson, AK the pardon of The Board.
MIR. Larner denied the charge that the ceutrr
wards had robbed the Seventh Ward
Mr. Wilson asked If the Third and Fourth
Wards had not compelled the Seventh Ward 10
e1pend their money in making improvements
which they had not asked fort They had To
speRd large amount in opening Eleventh
street. Tor the hensh. of other wards Nearly
y
enlh street, but MAE out OF ten tons are con-
sumed In the CITY. They had TO improve Sixth
and Seventh streets, which was no benefit 10
them. You make Us build sea wall to ha,est
the city, and when We ask for little reyenne
you say, 80, no, that NJ ust be paid in the gem
ernl fund"
Hr: n d. IArner denied that the Seventh
" ard had paid their money for the bsnefit OF
the other wards. That ward (the Seyenthl was
IN debt now TO the Second, Third and Fourth
Wards.
Mr W5Isor cont;nn>d
they were made to pay six or eight thonsand
dollars for the improvement of streets which
they had not petiiioned for, there was no won
der that they were in debt
Mr.. M. Larner said that hs came not a. a
representative from the Fourth Ward but for
the city. and he would vote for the ci.y's in
frest, bnt ne thought the remarks OF the gen
tieman Mr.. Wilson) unjust. He would alway
act Tor the beet interests OF the city at large,
outside Of ward lines.
