show that a law prescribing and de.
fining the powers Of municipal govern

and sewers, and authorizing them to
borrow money to make such improve
ments, is now necessity, and is far
better and more economical than the
plan OF passing special law for each
town. We earnestly request the pass
age OF such law, and beg most re
spectiully to refer your honorable bod
lies to the law Of Indiana, approved
March 8, 1889, which seems t cover
the whole case fairly and equitably
and which, with any notifications re-
quired by our Constitution, would
manifestly be preferable to the many
local acts applied for by difftrnt cili. s
