How did the municipal improve
ments in the cities you visited compare

mona was asked.
"Well,n he replied. There is ono
thing in which We are far behind them,
and that is In tho lighting Of the
streets. Electricity in tho Western
cities ia lavishly used, arc lights being
the only lights used for street lighting,
and 1t being an uninterrupted plan In
ali the cities that the public improve
ments are paid for by direct liens upon
ths properties benefited. Theirs ara,
of course, moro streets paved and sewers
built than We can afford to do
whore ali of the etreet paving is paid
for out Of tho public funds. beside
three fifths of the cost of all the sewers.
Still our proportion is large and our
tax rate small, and our pavements com.
pare favorahly with any which We
saw. We can learn from them many
little details which we have digested,
but there la one thing we ca1 teach
them and that ia how to keen Htreets
clean at small coat. In fact we did not
visit any city wherein the streets wers
as clean as those in Wilmington.
