city, therefore, would have to pay 80
per day, or very nearly SllOOp annum.
The annual expense to the city would
therefore be S2S 600 and SllOO, or S29.-
100 in all, which could be met by n
special tax OF 20 cents on 500, yielding
$4,000 on the present assessment Of
fully $1,000 600. Besides this sum to
be raised annually by taxation, there
pense to be borne by all those own
ing buildings within the district
TO be severed. Each Of these build
ings would have to be connected with
the sewers at an expense of from $50 TO
S1j. AT any rate that has been the cost
of connection at Memphis. Tenn, and
the City Engineer assures us that they
will not cost more here.
The cost of water to private COnSum-
ers, we are informed, is at present 80
cents per month on each and every
water closet, hut in the district proposed
to be severed the City Assessor reports
there are now over 1900 buildings, and II
the Water Works Company would re-
duCe the above charge to - cents per
month, their income would even then be
increased by frlIy $500 per month from
that source alone.
0Our committee earnestly hope the
Water-W Orks Company will consent to
make the above reduction, and that in
that case the system of sewers herein
proposed will be carried by n handsome
Majority. Very respectfully,

TRUSTEE KITES INDEBTEDNESS.
The Interest Taken by the Democratic Com
missiOners in the Road Supervisors.

Township Trustee Kitz submitted to the
County Commissioners, yesterday, his itemized
Indebtedness to the road supervisors. To the
supervisor of district No. l, $2,557 40 is due; of
No 2, 81, 046. H. of No 3, $l25 80, and of No. 4,
81, 845.45. He also says 81 900 is due on several
orders of which no account has been
kept. These orders are held principally
by supervisors of Nos. and g. 1t is to meet
this indebtedness that the trustee asks for a
Sc. 600 loan. Commissioner Clinton, the other
day, prepared a resolution refusing the loan, but
Commissioners Sahm and Reveal. the party as
soc;ates of the trustee, were not prepared to
vote that way. Sahm said ne would agree to
deny the request if any other plan could be sug-
gested by which the supervisors could be paid.
''They are poor men, you know" be continued,
land have been waiting for a year or
more to be paid. It is on this account
solely that I would vote for granting the loan. !"
This sympathetic interest in the poor road su-
pervisors was manifested just about a day or
two before Commissioner Sahm decided, at the
request of the Democratic candidate for assessor,
to discharge poor Jim Carnegie, a veteran of
the Union army and a Knight of Labor, from the
janitorshp of the Commissioners Office. But
Mr.. Kitz will get his loan of &c. 900, notwith-
standing the opposition of the Republican mem
her of the board Captain Clinton.

COUGHING THE COUNTY.
Ice Men and Undertakers Take Advantage of
the Democratic Desire for Retrenchment.

County Commissioner Sahm said, yesterday:
"T want to have an economical administration
Of my official trust. hope to make name in
that respect during the next three years, and
then will retire from Office satisfied" Last
year the County Commissioners made
. two years contract with the new Independent
Ice Company to furnish ice to the courthouse
sfices at % cents per 100 pounds Sahm and
Reveal had not been long in their seats as repre-.
tentatives of Democratic reform, as taught by
Sim Coy, and economy as exemplifed by Com
missioner Sahm, before they began to look
around for chance to save money. AS the last
days OF winter approached, the coming summer
supply OF ice suggested an idea, and as usual,
without consulting their Republican colleague,
Messrs. Sahm and Reveal proposed to have their
Ice contract for this year rescinded. After de-
eiding it should be done, they spoke to Commits
sioner Clinton about it. He advised them to let
chat tempting avenue to economy alone. "lf
you rescind this contract" he said, 'you will
MOI S 80 ale to get bid as low. 1t has been an
ppen winter, and the ice men are talking of ad-
yancing prices. You had better let it alone"
Twenty-Five cents is too much. am. certain
we get II at q lower rate replied the eco
nomical Sahm and Reveal
You have no doubt, the right to revoke the
contract; but if it is done you will soon run
into muddle out of which it will be hard to
escape"
The contract was revoked, and the clerk or
dered to advertise for proposals. The ice men
formed combination, and agreed not to bid
lower than uniform price. Friday
their bids were opened those of
the New Independent Ice Company, A.
4. Caylor and one Cook. The latter
although member of the combination. proposed
TO furnish ice at Is cents per hundred while the
other two will not take the contract for less than
20 cents. Mr.. Cook when he found that he had
gone against the pool agreement. expressed a
wish to withdraw his bid. II the Commissioners
give him the contract at Is cents they have no
means of compelling him to fulfill it. Yesterday
the new Independent Ice Company. whose
contract was revoked, notified the
Commissioners that it would furnish no
more ice at % cents. It must be 40 cents
or no ice. The undertakers, also, have formed
pool to increase the rates of pauper burials.
None of them sent in bids. but their proposition
is to supply three-feet collins or less for $3.50
each, five feet for $7.5 and over five feet for
$40 80. Heretofore the price has been 81 90.
