7 WOULD PROVE DISASTROUS
A Blow to the Advancement Of the CITY
would Result From n Decision Adverse
TO the street and sewer Department.


An interesting question will come
before the Superior Court at It's next
session which will be OF the utmost i'm
portsnce to the Street and Sewer Dl.
rectors and the public as we'll The
question Is Has the Street. and Sewer
Department the right 60 collect for the
building OF sewer from Rbutting prop
erty in case that property is not drained
into the sewer2" Il arose over the recent
advertised sale OF propsrsy on liens for
ourbing and sewers.
Many bold that the department has no
such right, aud that only those who uss
the sewers can be compelled 10 pay for
them The Street ehd Sewer Directors
claim that chsrgee have always been
based on thorough calculation OF the
cost of the entire sewerage system, and
that the law is constitutional, and has
been declared so whsn similar case were
brought IN other states
President Samuel Chambers Of the
Street aud Saver Department was aeksd
by an EvKNINe JOURNAL reporter this
morning, what would ba the result In
care OF the decision Of the court being
advarse TO the department. He said: I:
such decision would be highly dlsas
trous both to the department and 60 the
public generally II the court
should so rule II wonld practically put 9
damper on the work Of constructing
sewers in the city. The city is possibly
one Of the best severed Ia this country.
Rudely estimated, four. dfths Of all the
property Is severed ard the sewers paid
for IL Is sn injustice TO require these
owners, having once paid for their sewer
privileges TO pay again for the building
OF sewers IN front Of some one else's
properly, for this would be the result II
the law Is not upheld.
Take 4 street. for instance. where q
sewer Is to be laid There ara ten persons
owning property on Il, nine Of whom
connects with It The one who does not
gets the benefit even II he does not uss
the sewer as It adds to the value OF hi,
property and he can connect when he 30
desires. he refuses to pay and bis
share falls on the shoulders OF others
IL isn't fair TO those who have
to pay do not think the courts will
go decide, but II they DO l think 10 vii
prove blow to the advancement and
prosperity OF the city Perioually,
don't care, but as a director Of thI
department do hope the hands Of thu
directors will be upheld.
