MORE SEWERS NEEDED.

The late storm has demonstrated the need
of more sewers in the northern part of the
city very forcibly. Especially has the de-
mand for sewers in Fifteenth and Seven
sewer at present is in Thirteenth street,
and from that point up to Twentieth there
are no means of escape for surplus surface
water, which now has converted G and
parts of III streets into miniature canals,
not only to the immediate Inconvenience Of
the residents in that quarter, but to the
probable future dissemination of malaria
The section referred to has been settling up
very rapidly during the past two years.
and there is no longer any excuse for re-
framing from building sewers there. At
least two more sewers ought to be con-
structed this summer, and we have men,
toned Fifteenth and Seventeenth streets
as the proper localities for them
because these streets have already been
marked out for that purpose on the general
map, and because they come next in order
properly. 1t is indeed time that far more
attention should be paid to sewerage gen.
orally, for the present provision is very in
adequate, and one result of this is that
whenever from any cause the low grades
and lots are oyerfowed, a great quantity of
sewage is washed out of its receptacles, and
being distributed over the surface of the
