WATER WORKS.

We are and always have been a
decided advocate of water works in
Knoxville, and would hail their
completion with as much pleasure
as any man in the city. IF the
proposition is defeated on Saturday,
we feel that it will be because of the
bungling and unbusiness-like man
ner in which the question is pre-
scented. In view of the experience
Of many cities in the land which
have been overwhelmed with debt,
the taxpayers Of Knoxville are
naturally sensitive on the subject of
creating further debt. Owing to
the fact that the interest on
our present bonded debt is in
default, many persons fear
that our Water Works bonds
could not be sold for figures that
would Justify the city in issuing
them. Others complain that the
ordinance submitting the question
to the people does not specify the
rate of interest, and fails to pro-
vide that they shall not be sold for
less than their face value. It does
not satisfy this class of directors
that most excellent Board of Com
missioners have been chosen, for,
they say, We may not always have so
good a Board.
Another objection urged is that
the mains provided for in the map
which has been made, run into only
a few of the principal streets, and
they say the appropriation of sew
enty-fve thousand dollars will only
call for an additional one
at once, in order to give
water to the whole city, and that
there IS no telling what the addi,
tional debt may prove in the end,
We regret that these objections can
not be silenced. There is at least
an apparent foundation for them,
which ought to be removed, and
which, if they are not, may cause
the defeat of the proposition. The
plan ought to have been agreed
upon with elaboration and then pre-
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1879-06-27

scented in such way that there
would have been no misunderstanding
ing. The people want water works,
but they do not want to contract a
debt they can never pay. The fate
of Memphis, with its immense
taxes for years, impOverishment OF
the people, and finally Republication
stares usin the face and speaks with g
voice that must be needed.
