hould be refun ed without delay.


As the rate of interest is not fixed
kept that it shall not exceed four
percent, and as the bonds when is
sued, are exempt from corporation
axes. the new issue under present
conditions, can we think, be fioated
ID premium. with an interest rate
Of 81 per cent, the rate now adopted
by New York City.
We therefore urge that this indeot
edness be refunded and without delay,
and after public advertisement. We
also insist that a commission OF i've
members be created not more than
two of whom shall be members OF the
Common Council, to act as agents for
the Corporation in negotiating SAID
issue, and in redeeming and cancel
ling the old bonds. We demand that
no person shall be appointed on said
Commission who will not agree to
serve without compensation.
| We also earnestly recommend that a
Board of Sinking Fund Commission
ers, none of whom shall be members
of the Common Council, shall if the
council permits, be created whose
business it is to manage the sink
ing fund required by law to be estab-
lished for the extinguishment Of the
PRINCIPAL of said Indebtedness within
thirty-four wears.
! 4. We demand that no part OF the
new issue of 1873 600 90 be negotiated
or other Springs bought, till careful
and exhaustive Investigation be made
Of the reasons and necessities for such
issue, more especially in the follow
ing respects:
| That the true cause of the inadequa
cy of the water supply, during the
summer months may be inquired into
so that the people may feel assured
il is not due to insufficient pumping
capacity. or defective machinery in
the existing system.
That the exact facts in regard to the
polluted condition of any source of
water supply now bieng used, may
be investigated, so that the people
may feel assured of the necessity of
abandoning any now in use, and that
such pollution cannot be remedied
without acquiring a new supply.
That in case it is regarded as neces
sary for any reason to abandon any
source now us d, or acquire any
other or any additional source of sup
ply, the facts and reasons for such ac-
tion should be fully and publicly stat
ed, so that the people may themselves
Judge of the wisdom of such action.
That before making any change, adj
dition or purchase, or issuing bonds
| therefore, careful estimates of the
cost. and careful plans for carving
out the same, should be formulated
and made public, so that the people
may know and judge for themselves
of the necessity and propriety of such
action
5. Finally we declare most empha-
tically that good municipal govern
ment demands that public work
should be let by contract wherever
practicable, by competitive biddings
after public notice; and that i'll the
election of agents and officers to
transact the corporate business, fitness
for the work TO be done should be
made the tests, not political affilia-
tions nor party services.
The foregoing policies are recon-
mended to the people OF Martinsburg
and to the members of the Common
Council and the members of the Citi-
zens Union tender their best services
in carrying them into effect.
