THE NEW WATER RATES.
What the Established Rates Are and
the Proposed Change.

What the Established Rates Are and
the Proposed Change.
The proposed change in water rates is
causing a good deal of stir among property
owners and among other water consumers.
The rates printed in MacDonel's code,
which was adopted by the city council last
December, dlffor quite materially from
those now in use. The present rates, which
are an alteration of those printed in the
MORNING NEWS yesterday, are rs follows
for dwellings and include the us5 of one
bath tub aud two closets:
Valuation $500 and under. ...............S 5 90

The rates for hotels are the same now as
those proposed in the new ordinance. These
rates were first established in 1873. In dis
cussing the new ordnance the rates printed
il tae code were generally accepted, by
many members of the council as the rates
now III force 1t is claimed by the advo-
Gates Of the new ordinance that the actual
difference in rates is not vecy great, and
that it will equalize the charges upon as
sessed valuation, as for instance in the old
schedule there was no rate charged between
valuation of 1900 and q, 500, which
made a consumer owning house valued at
the lowest figure pay the same
as one valued al 2,400. This
has been remedied in the new rates and
has been made providing the valuation
between those amounts. The charge for
sprinking the streets, it is claimed, is less
for a SINCE front Of so feot, and the same
charge is made for froit Of 90 feet. Over
60 feet is a new charge, but there are but few
localities, it is claimed, where more tsan
GO feet is sprinkled by ono owner. II is
claimed that only those alterations and
additions have been made which are neces-
sary by now industries and enterprises not
in existence at tho time the present rates
were established. or course the change
in tho valuations Of property will affect
the rates.
A member OF the water works depart
ment, in discussing tho matter yesterday,
said that il is unfortunate that the old rates
should have been printed in the Code and
the established rates omitted, as the ordi-
nance IN taat shape is misleading.

Is Real Estate High in Savannah?


Is Real Estate High in Savannah?
The easiest way to determine this inquiry
is to look aroupd US aud see what our
peighbors are doing The bulk of our pee
pie do not travel much. 1t is doubtful when
they go to another city whether they make
any inquiries into the prices Of property
There is nothing that they could do that
would so increase their estimate Of Savan-
nah values.
Experienced business men who travel a
great deal in the south, and who are very
obseryant, find that real property of every
description, and especially suburban
property, and more particularly acre
property outside of the city, is cheaper
here than in cities Of one-fourth cur size
and one tenth our importance COM
mercially.
1t is fact that all of tho southern cities
Of any Importance are growing in import
ance very rapidly. Ii anything, Savannah
Is rather slower thal most OF our sisters.
The outsiders have not yet taken hold Of
her ODly a few such have gotten little
bites and others are nibbling. la a twelve-
month, with the DeSoto filed with stranger
guests, two new railroads entering the city,
and the possibility of the navy yard grow
ing into a certainty, values will double.
Suppose some Of these things don't happen,
is it not fair to expect the natural growth
of the city to be as great as it has been any
one of the past ten years! Charleston,
Brunswick, Atlanta, Macon, Augusta, are
getting more for property thal we are.
The trouble with our people is tnat the
bulk Of them don't keep posted. Several
years ago some one heard Of a lot on Gwin-
nett street being sold for $1,000 lie has
not kept the run Of prices, aud does not
know that the same lot has chang i hands
several times, paying each man a profit,
and is now considered desirable property at
$1,000 but when he hea rs that a lot on
Seventh and Whitaker streets sold at 81 900,
he nearly faints in his disinterosted anxiety
lest the purchaser may have paid too much.
The moral Of this disquisition is to always
attend Dorsett's sales and keep posted on
the market, and by no means to miss the
great sale on Wednesday, 22d.
