REPORT on WATER RATES.
Public Service Committee Makes a
ESnw SupuexfiOnS

Fred G.. Ziebis, chairman of the Public
Service Committee of the Real Estate Ex-
change, appointed to look into Council
bills Nos. 12i and I'D. relating 10 water
rates. have reported to President Giraldin.
The report in part follows:
Council bill No. ia. advocated by the
Manufacturers Association. would in
count Of rates on water closets and baths
being raised 81 each. and would decrease
the revenue on account of reductions in
SI7O.Sss
The COLLECTIONS for the year 1895 were
81. 735, 40. With this loss. the total col
lections would be S1.5S4,eF.
Council bill No. 100 would decrease the
revenue s6,a9. on account, of reductions
on barber chairs. and would increase the
revenue sso.HN on account Of the restora-
ton of rates on rooms, closets aud baths.
81. slS.9 S1.
The average reduction under. the ched-
ule rates made last year was about 10
per cent on the total schedule rate.
The his hest reduction made was on resi-
dences containing hot baths and closets.
where the reductions amount 70 as much
as IS per cent. However. the average will
not be over 10 per cent.
We find that the meter rates have been
reduced three or four times since 1851. The
total reduction on all water bills during
this period averaged so per cent.
BY careful Investigation. going back as
lar az 1851, vienna INHI lle CUllcClNpilS lIVlh
water rates hrve increased slightly over
the SAINT proportions of increase in the
water consumption, as indicated by the

are SO apparent that we are almost
ashamed to talk about them. They
stick right out like tine nose of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurelius
might have said, if he had thought
of it, IF man blow not his own
horn, the same it shall not be
blowed.' And our office boy says
he'll be blowed if he can see why
we should hide our light under a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing to admit that there is no light
that even approaches the electric
light in quantity Of light radiated
all around the room.
The quality Of the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give a stfong, clear vivid write
light. That IS what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
of it,
If our points are not clear to you
it is undoubtedly due to the fact
that yonr light is poor. If you
will put in full equipment of elec-
trio lighes the whole subject will be
made beautifully luminous and we
will have. peace i'll the family.
