their annual reunion and picnic
at Mystic on the 18th day of
June.
It is the purpose of those hav-

history of the veterans I'M

A special schedule on the T.

accommodation of those who at
tend from this city.
While the people at Mystic are
hospitable there will be a vast
crowd to feed on that day and it
must not be supposed that they
are expected to take care of that
question unassisted. Everybody
is supposed to take a basket we'll

increase in this years taxes is
necessary in view of the thou
sands of dollars that have been
added to it's revenues in the line
of improvements and a reasona-
BILE advance in the valuation of all
lots, and that the taxes should in
consequence be reduced instead
of raised, seeing that the expend-
itures or appropriations have not
increased. If you can tell why
they have been raised instead of
lowered, please do so and oblige.
This years taxes are MS tafar
from double what they should be,
no matter what may be said, or
what figures may be presented to
the contrary. To prove my as
sertion let me illustrate it by
simple example. Suppose mans
taxes were $500 last year, but
this years fine for owning same
property is, we will say, $11.00,
IA fair average of this years in
crease in the tax. Now it is
apparent that owing to the enor-
nous increase in building i'm
provements since last year and
$4,000 additional saloon license,
all of which will raise this years
revenues alone at least $4,000
over and above last years. in
come, (not to say anything now
about the general increase of
taxes outside of these additional
sources it is evident that this
mans taxes should have been re-
duced to about $500 or 5000.
Calling it $3.50, what they should
be then, but having to pay $11.OO
shows that his taxes are just fifty
per cent. too high this year.
To the $4,000 mentioned above
must be added the additional
taxes raised by means of the
enormous increase in the valua-
ton of the lots, which will an cunt
to at least $4,000 more, making a
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1903-05-29

sum total of twelve thousand dol
lars over and above last years
revenues, for which amount there
is absolutely no use in sight, no
appropriations having been made
yet for the bonded Indebtedness.
But as $1,000 will be al1-sufic-
lent to start it, this cuts no fig
ure," even if an appropriation is
made for it. And as we hare 30
years to pay it il the burden will
become lighter every year on the
tax payers, in consideration of
the city constantly growing dur
ing that time. So the sinking
fund need not be brought up at
all in extenuation of the outrage
Gus tax levy imposed upon the
citizens this year. We can let
the coming and the sprouting
generations pay that.

REDUCE THIS YEARS TAX RATE.

EDITOR ENTERPRIsE:-There is
another phase to the city tax
question which has heretofore
been overlooked. It is this: Let
the assessor and equalization
board raise the assessment as
high as they think right, but re-
duce the tax rate in proportion,
so that enough money, and no
more, is raised than the city
needs. This years tax rate must
and should be reduced.
If the real estate agents who
run the city council this year
don't reduce this years tax rate
l hope the tax payers will never
have use again for anyone who
'dabbles" in that kind of prop
erty.
I have been informed that sew
eral are engaged in finding out
this years assessments. 1t
makes not a particle of difference
whether the assessments amount
to ten cents or ten million dol
lars. We have our last years
record to go by. We know what
amount of money was needed to
run last years's city government.
Since then thousands of dollars
have been added to the assess
ments in the line of improve
ments, not to say anything about
a reasonable advance in the value
of the lots. All these add to last
years revenues.
The sinking fund or bonded
Indebtedness amounts to but a
little over one thousand dollars a
year, interest included, and we
have nearly thirty years to pay
it in. So this "cuts no ice"
where thousands of dollars are
in question. Anyone who knows
the simplest rules of arithmetic
is aware that if $1,000 or there
abouts were a1l-suficient to run
last years city government, no

To the Hon. Mayor and City
Council,
GENTLEMEN:
RE-SEWAGE."
GENTLEMEN:

'RE-sEWAGE."
AS engineer of the City of
Fitzgerald, it is a part of my duty
to the taxpayers to submit my
views on this subject to the Coun-
Gil inasmuch as through lack of
knowledge of sanitary engineer
ing the Councn on the verge
of falling into a grave error by
which the funds of the tax-pay-
ers will suffer without adequate
return.
If the council considers it i'm
portant to deal with the matter
so hastily, then 1 would advise
that the proposed pipe line be
laid so that it may be ultimately
used as a part of a permanent
sewerage system.
| would further advise that
the sewer commence at a point
three feet below the surface, at
the corner of Pine and Main
Streets, using a six inch sanitary
tile with " connections every
twenty five feet; from this point
the sewer should be laid at such
a grade as would make it eight
foot six inches deep when-it
reaches the proposed new bank;
from there to Sherman St. a fall
of 81 of one per cent would suf-
flee, going north along Sherman
st. with an eight inch tile, and
with the same grade it could be
brought back to depth of three
feet in less than the distance of
two squares, and I will state
positively that it will be a fatal
mistake to allow any surface
drainage to be connected with
this sewer.
I would further submit that a
consulting engineer be employed
