PLUMBING ORDINANCE VETO.
Mayor Taggart Refuses to lie
FOisted on the People.

Mayor Taggart yesterday vetoed the
plumbing ordinance. He addressed la mes
sage to the president and members of the
Council. in which he said:
you will find herewith returned to you
general ordinance No g. 1897, without my
signature. While ! favor careful regula-
ton of sanitary plumbing by ordinance, ana
all sanitary legislation needed for protect
ing the public health, feel that care should
be exercised in legislation which interferes
with the owners control of private prop
erty, and as far as possible the imposition
of any hardships by such legislation should
be avoided The provisions of Section n of
the ordinance apply to large majority or
the buildings in the city, probably near
three-fourths of all, and its enforcement
would make a burdensome expense to the
owner which in many cases would fall on
those who have recently borne the expense
of sewer construction and street improve
ments. In most cases 1t would require not
merely sewer connections. but alteration In
the construction of buildings, and the In
pumps and water tanks for flushing pur-
poses. My information is that in cities
where such extensive changes have been re-
quired, several years have been allowed Tor
completing them, but this Ordinanc requires
immediate action and on failure to comply
with the requirements on ten days notice
the property owner is subject to 500 fine.
Coming at a time of industrial depression
when many persons lack employment and
advantages of first-class sanitary improve
mentS feel unable to pay for them, 1t seems
to me that this ordinance would impose
hardships not now justifiable
II hope that your body, in connection
with the Board of Health may see its way
clear to the preparation and passage OF
plumbing ordinance which will not impose
unreasonable hardships on the community,
one applying to buildings hereafter con-
structed and to work voluntarily undertake
en- or to buildings where numbers of per-
sons employed or reside. Such meas
ure carefully prepared would be pleased
to sign.
DR.. e. D. Clark. secretary OF the Board,
of Health, said that if the Council was so
disposed the ordinance might be passed
with Section q stricken out. as it was not
included in the original ordinance prepared
by the board. This is the section which
provides that where vaunts and cess pools
are within fifty feet of sewers they shall
be abolished and the vaults. and pools FLIED
up with earth.
There was no such provision in the or
dinance introduced in Council by this
board" said DR.. Clark. land if it were
eliminated entirely the ordinance would still
be most effectual. Until have talked with
the board and the Council / can express
no opinion on the veto further than to say
that 1 think satisfactory ordinance can
be passed"

The converting of the Delaware Legisla-
ture on Tuesday marked the closing of the
greatest divorce mill that has ever operated
in this country. In the granting of divorces
the courts of North Dakota or Oklahoma
were not 'in it, compared with the Legis-
lature of Delaware. Prior to the amend
ment of the Constitution last fall divorces
could only be granted in that State by the
Legislature, and as it met biennially it
generally had large grist. At its last ses-
sion, ending in May. 1897, it granted an even
one hundred. The Constitution having been
amended the present and future Legisla-
lures will find this branch of their occupa-
ton gone.
