oPPoRTUNE TIME FOR BUILDING
MAIN SEWER.

1t has been suggested that this
summer would be an opportune time
TO construct a main sewer from the
high school down main street past
he public school, court house, Hotel
Enterprise and principal business
houses. turning on West First street
to Greenwood, past the Commercial
hotel and on TO the outlet. The
court house must have a sewer con-
nection, the schools and hotels nee6
1t badly. Un'ess some mutual az
rangement is made between the city
and county board the latter will be
compelled to bear the entire expense
OF sewer for the court house.
1t is aiso an oppo-tune time because
contract could be made with the
American Light & Power company
to dig the trench with the steam
ditcher after the completion of the
water works at a cost much less than
if the machinery and men were no,
already here on the ground.
The expense could and should be
equitably distributed among three
parties: The city, the county board
and the private property owners
directly benefited. Just what pro
portion or share each should pay
ought TO lie easily adjusted and no
doubt would be. The main thing is
to get together and the details will
work out as a result of the confer
ences.
If the city is not able to pay in
casl its share this year, it ought not
be a difficult matter to negotiate its
warrants for the amount necessary.
