SEWERS ARE NECES- SkRY.
Council Committee in nFavor Of East
Side Extension.

The council committee on sewers last
evening discussed the proposed sewer eX-
tension No. 1872 in district No. !, against
which some of the residents of the east
ern portion of the city are protesting, on
the ground that the cost Will ue burden
some. Councilman Black was of the
opinion that sewers ought TO be put in
all over the city, regardless IF the pro-
tests. He said cesspOOls and orthouses
were a menace to the health of the COM
munity. II would be cheaper tor a man
to pay for a sewer than 10 lay doctor
and undertaken bills on account of sick
ness resulting from CesspOOls md their
unsanitary arrangements.
III / had my way about il, said Mr..
Black. mo one would be allowed 10 bald
a house in Salt Lake unless he connected
ii with a sewer.
Councilman Dean was of the same
opinion as his colleague. He thought that
the cost Of cleaning out cesspoOls would
soon equal the expense of having a sewer
put in He had had to build two cesspOols
on his lot, and both were COW about
filled up.
The committee on asphalt decided 20
recommend that committee of the whole
next Wednesday hear the offer OF all who
desire tC sell asphalt beds TO the city.
