WHAT the people of the city object to
in the Ballona route sewer system are
these: The plan goes per saltum to do
in year what ought to take five years.
1t does not regard an iota the rights OF
the taxpayers nor the interests OF small
property holders. 1t is extravagant to a
degree that is tantsmount to confisca-
ton of the property Of many poor men.
1t embraces a needless system of stor M
water drains whose cost is one-third of
all that of the sewer system, including
the outfall sewer. 1t runs the sewage to
the sea by route over low, damp lande
that render it useless as means of irri-
eating and fertilizing the lands between
this city and the ocean. 1t includes a
system of filtration at the edge of the
ocean, instead of at the city limits. Il
pays ten prices for the useless
Gun Club swamp. 1t pays fifty
prices for the right of way
over Roses farm, and then ties the city
up by checks and conditions which may
cost the citizens ten times the amour
expended on the sewer. And last of all
the people will not entrust this work t.
the present Council, which has developed
so little ability to deal with public affairs
so little consideration for the popular
will, and so fatal facility to blunder il
important matters. We said, finally
but there is one more reason why the
bonds will receive many adverse votes
1t is, that the people in general arr
really in favor of proper public improve
ments, and will not risk series of lega
distractions to necessary work in th'
way of litigation, injunction suits ant
what not.

Hamilton In Jail.

ATLANTIC Cry, N. j., August 2s.-

covery is assured, providing no new
complications arise. Hamilton was in
close consultation with lawyer the
greater part OF the morning. The attor-
ney said this afternoon that the favora-
BILE condition of the nurse would lead
him to seek to have Mrs. Hamilton re-
leased on bail. Mrs. Hamilton's first
night in prison was passed in the attic
part Of the Sheriff's residence, where she
will be confined until court convenes or
the nurse is convslescent and bail &C.
cepted. Hamilton spent four hours
with his wife today, and much affection
was displayed on both sides. Mrs.
Swinton and her son, Joshua Mann, are
still here, but cannot be seen. The Noll

special act of Congress.
