be seen that his expenses run over

RIVER ROUTE LED
HIM TO SALOON

The police are puzzled to know
what James e. Cell, a w. w. P.
conductor, who has been missing
since Saturday, meant when he left
a note for his wife saying "the
river route for mine"
The note caused the department
some trouble yesterday, as it was
thought that Cell had committed
suicide by throwing himself into
the river. Last night, however.
Patrolman Layman found Cell in
the Log Cabin saloon and took him
home to his home In the residence
of E. e. Crosby, 1913 Sharp ave-
nue., where he has been living since
an estrangement with Mrs. Cell,
who lives at 1914 Wilson avenue.
Besides the references to the river,
Cells note left word to his wife,
Emma, saying that he always tried
to do right but she would not have
it. Cell failed to make any expla-
nation to the police.

This CITY owns NO Sewer;
THE SEWER OWNS THE CITY

where they could not be reached
for process serving.
So there has been no progress in
the construction of the city sewer.
The man responsible for Lead.
ville's fruitless protest against the
private sewer graft is the present
mayor, H. c.. Rose. He came into
office four years ago, and began to
look around. And what he found
interested him.
He discovered, In the FIRST place,
that there never hadbeen any fran
|chise grand tos the sewer company,
but that all the operations of that
concern were those of a trespasser.
Twenty years before there had
been a company Incorporated for
$4,000 and license was granted
by the city council to dig up Har-
rison street (the main street, to
put in sewer drain. AS years
went by other builders had asked
for connections and had paid for
such, with regular rental for the
sewers use.
This had gone on until there
were some Ave miles of sewer and
laterals and the bulk of the citys
population was paying rents to the
sewer concern.
The concern, In the meantime,
had come into the ownership of two
of Leadville's leading and wealthy
citizens, Judge Charles Lavender
and A. B. Hunter. The latter is
president of the local bank.
Even the corporate existence of
the concern appears to be in doubt,
as the original corporate term of
20 years expired in 1906, and there
was lapse of time before a new
corporation was put on record.
Mayor Rose took up the matter
with the council and WITH the sewer
company. The council passed an
ordinance forbidding any excava-
lions by the company and denying
1t authority to charge or collect
rentals.
Thereupon Mayor Rose went to
Mr. Hunter and offered in the name
of the city to buy the mains of the
sewer company.
The company declined to sell.
Mayor Rose told the citizens not
to pay.
1--WE will disconnect YOU" said
the company officials.
II will arrest any man who dares
to break the street or sewer" re-
piled the mayor.
Then it was that Judge Lavender
hiked over to Denver and got Judge
Allen to come in and hand down

MAYOR ASKS FOR

property is not condemned 1t will

leaving the property in question a

The question of condemnation

There is an appeal from this to
Colorado's distinguished supreme
court.
But anybody who knows what
Colorado's supreme court is--and
the people of Leadville are not to-
tally ignorant on this subject
know just about what they have to
expect from this source.
The remarkable decision by
Judge Allen ran about like this
"The city seems to have the law
of this case; but the sewer COM
pany seems to have the equiyt of
the case. So, Leadville being a
mining camp. this court feels that
it must lean to the side of equity,
and grant the restraining orders
asked"

LEADvILLE, Col, Oct. IT.
Leadville has privately owned
| sewer.
Or, to be more accurate, a pri
vately owned sewer has Leadville
In Leadville you pay rent to have
tyour waste water go through the
drains in the middle OF the Street
If you are householder you pay
all the way from $35 to $3.50 year
If you refuse to pay a man from
the sewer office comes around, digs
lup your sewer pipes and discon
meets you from the drain. a
If you interfere with the man you
are in contempt of the district
court. There is a permanent in,
junction against interfering with
the man.
Leadville's private sewer com.
pany has never paid any taxes for
any purposes. 1t has been in exist
ence since 1885 and owns approx
mately five miles of mains and lat.
erals. The concern has an income
which would warrant valuation of
a million dollars.
Finally, and most remarkable of
all, Leadville's private sewer has
no charter, franchise, grant, lease,
easement or any form of law or
contract from or with the city of
Leadville to entitle it to operate a
sewer system.
1t just does it; and when, the
mayor and city authorities of Lead
vile try to interfere the Judge who
owns the sewer calls in colleague
in Denver, who is proficient in the
law of private sewer ownership,
and secures permanent injunc-
ton.
Nor is that all. After learning the
law of injunctions as applied to
privately owned sewers, the people
of Leadville thought about building
public sewer at the city's ex-
pense. So they got bids and started
in; only to find when they got their
main pipe to the "gulch" where all
sewers have to go, that some pri-
vately owned sewer gentlement had
secured title to strip of land 100
feet wide and running like a ribbon
from one side of The valley to the
other. 1t cut off the outlet of the
proposed city sewer And when the
city tried to condemn a right of
way through this strip it found
that the legal owners were resi-.
dents of Vermont, New Hampshire
Maine and other remote districts

DANIEL GOES INTO
GALBRAI7H RECORD

| When the city engineering depart
ment asked for overtime for dep
uties in 1906. the corporation coun-
sci, city comptroller and finance
committee of the city council
promptly disapproved of the bill,
and placed it on file. The finance
committee of the council was COM
posed of N. S. Pratt, w. T. Horr
and W. G. Estep.
Before the primary, Mr.. Gal
braith stated the levy for the city
of Spokane for this year would be
% mills Recently the levy has
been fixed at 261a mills, with the
certainty of being 80 mills or more
next year ON valuation which has
been nearly doubled in this county.
1t is easier to keep the levy down
on reasonable valuation than to
raise the valuation and depend on
a reduction of the levy. This has
been the history of taxation in
every part of the country. If the
valuation is doubled the levy
should be reduced one-half to make
the same amount of taxes, which
would mean a levy of 1872 mills in
Spokane, but instead we have
261a mill levy and a double valu-
alton.
l will give a few figures which
will be of interest to the tax
payers:
Chamberlain addition was
raised from s119,550 to s193,S65, or
GO per cent. Fairview addition, 49,
$50 to s66,S05, or So per cent;
Heath's Fifth addition, s144,S35 to
s23S,635, or 60 per cent; Liberty
Park addition, $53,955 to $3.50, or
so per cent; Cooks First and Sec
ond additions, 34,165 to 1925, or
So per cent; Booge's addition, $42,-
5S5 to $SO,13O, or So per cent;
Union Park addition, s2S,SS5 to
SOS $40, or 270 per cent.
The above figures will show the
general raise in the city, and the
county runs proportionately
In the city of Spokane the taxes
on property valued at $4,000 last
year on the levy of 81 mills would
amount to $3.50. Next year the
same property if located in Union
Park addition would be taxed
s49o2; in Liberty Park, $3.50; in
Chamberlain addition, $2250, and
so on throughout the additions of
the city.
If the taxpayers will go and in
vestigate their assessments this
year and then figure on a 26h mill
levy and compare this with their
last years receipt for taxes, I will
be fully satisfied with the verdict
they will make on November 3.
