ONLY ONE THING MORE.

The world moves and Sacramento is in
the vanguard. We have settled the ques-
ton of street improvements in Sacra-
mento, and twenty or thirty miles of
new streets prove our faith in good road
work, while bituminous pavement lay
ing keeps time to the clatter of the COM
ing down of the awning posts that give
place for graceful shelter sheets.
The work upon further levee improve
ment has begun on two sides of the city
at one and the same time; residences by
the dozen are going up in sections a few
years ago considered too remote for
homes. The people have just pronounced
at the polls by an overwhelming major
ity that they will have clear, pure water
supply, and on plan that avoids tax
alton and debt. The factory enterprise,
brought to a standstill by the financial
distress, is soon to be again revived, and
now but one thing more remains for Sac
ramento to do-fx upon and set about
putting in new sewage disposal system.
With good streets, pure, clear water
and scientific sewage disposal, Sacra-
mento will challenge comparison with
any city on the coast and stand second
to none. The worthy citizens, but
mistaken ones in judgment, who were so
loud on Saturday in declaring that they
would willingly vote for special tax, in
three yearly payments, to put in water
system owned by the city, can content
themselves by applying such a tax to
meet the imperative need for correction
of our sewer system. We are to get
water without tax, we can we'll afford,
therefore. to put renewed energy into the
sewage disposal question. Unfortu-
nately no one will come along and offer
to do that work for us; it is the thing that
we must do for ourselves, this keeping
the municipal body clean.
