THE lessons OF the past ought TO be
a guide I'm the matter of harbor inn
provements. II the improvements are
worth making, they are worth making
just as soon as the city can set about IL.
IL isn't question of expense! It's a
question of income and benefits. The
cost will be no more. while the profits
will be a great deal more IL the work
is undertaken promptly. 1t must be
admitted that the people OF the town
have not become thoroughly warmed
up to the project yet and the facts and
figures have not been made altogether
clear as business proposition, for all
the undoubted attractiveness of the
scheme i'm a general way. But just "a
soon as the matter can be got together
in such shape as 10 demonstrate. what
is already realized I'm a general way,
that harbor Improvement means money
TO the municipal corporation, the city
should undertake Il with vigor and
without niggardly restraint.

HarbOr Improvement:
THE city council is evidently resolved
10 go slow in the matter OF harbor inn
provement. but II is - be hoped that
the beginning OF the work will not be
delayed until all the land required is
taken out of the market by private
ownership to be held for an advance
in price when the city makes uIA it's
mind on the. subject. ON the whole.
however there is no ground for dis
couragement as yet, though ii is TO he
hoped that the city government will
get 70 work in the matter with more
promptness than has characterized it
in other big municipal enterprises. For
years successive city councils labori-
ously counted the cost Of water works
for instance. before the conclusion was
arrived at that the receipts and bene-
fits were worth considering. too. IT
wasn't many years ago when il took no
end OF coaxing and scolding TO get a
few hundred dollars for the city parks
occasionally. Now the city aPppePrl-
ates new Thousands every year with
luxurious liberality Both the water
works and the parks would have cost
less and been more profitable If they
had been begun earlier.
