The Extra Water Tax.

The members Of the German Saloon Keepers
Association having petltioned the Board OF Alder
men to repeal the ordinance requiring them to pay
q special water tax for water consumed In their
business Commissioner Van Mort has communk
Gated to the Board in disfavor OF the application.
He grounds his objections on the following
reasons: In order to avoid the constant importu-
nifty OF saloon Keepers TO reduce the rate charged
to them to the lowest amount fixed by the
ordinance OF April H. 1862 viz SO to $50 extra the
Commissioner OF Public Works, IN lS7O definitely
established the two rates OF $40 and $l6 for all sa
looms, according TO the amount and nature OF the
business transacted. The quantity of water con-
sumed In them Is enormous, and if meters could
be applied TO them at the usual rates the proprie-
tors would nave TO pay larger tax than now.
other kinds OF business, manufactures, stables,
&c, are charged extra water rent, and, in the
commissioners opiniOn remission to a particular
GLASS would form u bad precedent and be most in
furious to the revenues arising from the Croton
water rents.
