age will be deposited This will go on
during the entire period of the inflow OF
the rising tides AS the extra high tide
runs more than two feet above the or
binary high tide, and the sewer at North
Beach has an outlet of eight feet in
diameter, the sewer mouth will be COM
pletely filled by such tide and there will
be an absolute blockade Of the entire out
let. Meanwhile the tidal water will run
up as far as Tenth and Harrison streets.
All accumulated sewer gases will be
driven out through the cesspools at street
corners or into the houses of citizens
In addition to the tidal difficulty in
volved in the sewerage system plan that
underlies the present proposition there IS
another serious physical condition to be
considered. For many years to come.
and indeed until the enormous drainage
areas that have been herein enumerated
are covered with bitumen and cement
and houses, the great sand wash into the
main will be a source Of trouble. Espe-
cially in winter will there be an immense
inflow of sand.

AGED MAN is HURLED

Wealthy Pioneer of Sonoma County

inO From Town
inP From Town.

SANTA ROSA, Sept. 24--While driving
from this city to the home of his son at
Mount Olivet Thursday afternoon. L. s
B. Slusser. an aged man, was thrown
from his vehicle and sustained fracture
of the right thigh. The injury was the
result of a runaway. in which Slusser
was pitched headlong from the vehicle.
He had been in this city on business and
was returning to his sons home.
Slusser is one of the wealthy men OF
SonOma COunty-where he has resided
over fifty years. He is probably the old
est pioneer in this section of the State,
both in point of residence in the State
and in the years he has lived, being over
ninety years of age. The injured man
was brought to this city late this after
noon for medical attention.

FALL IS VERY SLIGHT.
Grade Averages Less Than Three
Feet to Mile of Pines.

The fall for the North Point main
through its course of nearly four miles,
and that largely in a populous district and
through the principal business part of
the city, is only one foot for every 1900
feet, or less than three feet to the mile. 1t
is very questionable whether with that
low grade the sewage, largely mixed with
sand during the winter. will make it's
way to the North Beach outlet, being
crowded back twice every day by the
tidal waters.
In consideration of the great sum of
money to be voted for the proposed sewer
system. and not less on account Of vital
considerations of health and comfort, the
earnest attention of the business com
munity and of all good citizens is earn
estly invited. The sources of information
are official and open to all. What is
meant by flooding the main sewer with
tidal water out to Sixth and Howard
streets twice every day in the year and
checking the flow of sewage in a vast
drainage area during the entire periods of
| rising tides is easily apparent to every
one.
To extend this flow by an extra high
| tide to Tenth and Harrison streets is
even more serious, although more excep-
tional; but high tides are inevitable every
year and the effect of this must be con-
sidered in this connection. The gravity
of the questions involved is made more
striking by the fact that the sewer sys-
tenn is to be put in for a long series of
years and the difficulties that inhere in
the proposed system will be permanent
The accuracy of the statements concern
ing the flooding of the main sewer by the
tides twice each day cannot be questioned
successfully.
Water seeks it's own level The bot
,fk he
below the level of ordinary high tide.
| Official records to be found at the City
Hall furnish the basis for each averment
concerning the main sewer in its rela-
tion to the level of the tides
While it is disaster to incur a debt,
of millions of dollars for something that
is unsatisfactory and inadequate. there is
also another side to the matter. of pos
sibly greater gravity: If the bonds should
be issued and the new sewer system
should be established and 1t should then
appear that the work had been performed
without proper consideration of all the
| difficulties, and that they who had ad-
vocated it zealously. with sincere desire
to promote the public good had been as
the blind following the blind. future pro-
gress might be hampered badly by the
distrust naturally following so unfortu-
nate an experience.
The sewer question has been studied
with great care by The Call. The oppor-
| tunity is afforded for all citizens to do
the same in their own behalf.
| To render every point clear to the read

key that shows clearly the nature of the
