II the cost of the water works was
over $50, 600, it would still only be a
question of mere time. The Insurance
and tax payer would still more than
make his water tax out Of his saved
insurance rates.
This does not take into account any
income from the water works which
will certainly pay a large dividend
or be different from most other water
stock.
Now when the debt has all been ex-
tinguished by this process, the saving
of insurance still goes on, and is an.
nually~ represented by$12, 500, but there
being no water debt, there is saved
$l2,500, which remains in the pocket
of the insurance payer. The water
debt was only temporary, the saving
of insurance is annually forever,
Now this effects rich and poor alike
according to their taxable and in
sulable property.
But when the debt is retired, the
city begins to havean income with no
corresponding outlay, the result OF
which will be a diminished tax. Here
every tax payer, whether an insurer
or not, receives a direct benefit.
But as the water works are to be

Calhoun's Prophecy.

John G. Calhoun, one of the great
est statesmen this country ever pro-
duced, has been caliedan agitator and
troubler Of the public peace by Radi
cal pigmies, whose little minds can
never grasp the ilIimitable yastness
of his mighty genius. Whether he
vas so, let the people judge by the
following extract from a speech de-
livered before the United States Sen
ate in 1937-oUer thirty gears ago.
Speaking of q state of things which
were then prospective, but are fear
fully realized in the present, the great
GaroIinian said:
"Be assured that emancipation Itself
Icoud not satisfy these fanatics; that
gained, The merit step tCo1id be to raise
The negroes TO q social and political
equality lcih the t0hites, and that being
effected ace could OoH ind the condition
/ Of Ue ttCO races reversed. Ispeak with
full knowledge and thorough exam
ination of the subject, and for once
see my way clearly. One thing
alarms me, the eager pursuit OF gain
which overspreads the land, and
which absorbs every faculty of the
mind and every feeling of the heart.
of all passions, avariee is the most
lbIind and cOmprOmising-the last to
see, and the first to yield to pander.
I dare not hope that anything / can
say will arous the South to a due
sense of danger / fear it is beyond
the power of mortal voice to awake ii
in time from the fatal security into
which it has fallen"
Not even the fearful predictions OF
the prophets of the oIden time were
ever more literally fulfilled than this
prophecy of Nj. Calhoun. To-day
we have the very condition of affairs
governmentalIy, financially, politi
caIIyand socially, which he depreca-
ted, and which, if not soon checked.
will eventually lead to the entire
overthrow of republican institutions
in this country. Let the people pause
and ponder.

TIE WATER WORKS.
THE COST AND THE BENEFITS,

Mr.. EDIToR:-I find that many OF
my friends and neighbors are labor
ing under false ideas about our pro-
posed Water Works, and fear that a
heavy burden of taxation VIII be i'm
posed TO meet the expense, and that
those labOring men, who, like myself,
are fortunate enough to own homes,
will be overloaded with taxes. Such
is not the case, and having made a
few figures to convinee a neighbor,
we were so surprised at the result,
that I wish you would-publish this
communication to disabuse the minds
of those who think they will be To-
sers, instead of what they will be,
great gamers by the Introduction of
the Lake water.
r In the first place, judging from the
water rates of other places, an ordi-
nary dwelling house will not have to
pay more than So OF So a year for all
the water they car use. Pure and
perfectly soft water sent to them un-
der a pressure that will drive 1t to the
attic if desired.
Now contrast this kind of water
supply with our ink tubs of cisterns,
and wells of hard water, situated in
the same stratum of gravel and gen.
orally mixed up with the thousand
and One priVies of this city. What
neat hOusekeeper will use dirty els
tern water for washing clothing
when soft lake water can be hao
cheaper? or cook dinner from Oul
we'll water? but few i reckon. Few
will depend upon wells or cisterns af
ter the lake water can be obtained.
The high-presSure system which j!
to be used, car throw streams of wa
ter as high or higher than the bes
steam fire engine, with no delay in
case of fire but to attach hose to the
hydrant at the street corner; no tir.
ing out as with hand engines; no get
ting out Of steam or sticking in thu
mud as with hand engines, but an in
eXhaustible supply from as many
hose rs you can muster. The Bing
hampton N. Y.lRepublican of Marcel
5, relates a case of fire there, located
beyond the last fire plug on the street
in fact out in the country nearly hal
a mile, but they got two runs of hos
and drowned the fire out in a few
minutes 1t was remarked by thu
citizens that they would not sell on
their right in the high pressure waite
works for 1000, 100000" If Akron
had had such a system as we are Il
have, she would have saved NOR
than the entire cost of 1t in their de
structiVe fire last week.
But as regards tax paying. I cal
not Of course say just what it would
be in dollars, but it will be very Iigh
indeed, and the following statemen
and figures will show that every prop
| erty holder who insures will NOR,
than save his water tax in less rate
| Of Insurance which will suralv hn- ra
duced from 25a to so per cent. TIL
proof OF this is that it is so in othe
cities.
1t is stated as beyond question tina
Canton pays over $50, 900 annually 70
insurance, a saving of 25 per cent onl,
