The Alexander street route is not
to be considered. from the fact
that there is not sufficient fall
BY the survey to the Williams
street sewer it is found that the
distance is 1920 feet, the rate of
fall to 100 feet is 81. the same be-
ing ample fall to insure success
over this route. The greatest depth
is 10 feet. and the average depth
Is 9 feet. The estimated cost of
exeavating. pipe and laying. and
refilling. $6S4.60.
The distance from the factory
site to the Sophia street sewer is
1910 feet. The rate of fall to the
100 feet is .33 feet. i. e.. by start
ing at the factory grounds five feet
below the surface. we have the

able to cope with the blaze.
Mr.. Rockefeller's company was
telephoned for and they were soon
dashing down the hills behind one of

was called for from Elmsford and Tar

arrived the blaze was under control.

STATE HOUSE DEMOCRATS
WILL HAVE TO ASK COUN-
TIES FOR COIN TO
MEET EXPENSES.
MANAGEMENT IS BLAMED
Must Raise Between Now and June
Sum of S1,155, 000-Average
Monthly Expense Is
S3S5,000

State House Democrats said in
January they would not call on the
counties for advance payments of
taxes until June l. They were mis-
taken. They now. admit they must
call in April. this month, for money
with which to pay March and Feb
ruary bills. The April call for add
vance payments ahead of the regu-
lar June settlement is to be made
because there is no money in the
state treasury to meet the states
running expenses. Similar calls have
been made three times before since
tie beginning of the fiscal year 1912.
Ending the fiscal year 1911 by
eating a $51, 00O deficit hole in the
income of the year 1912, the Demo-
Gratis found it necessary to call for
advance payments last October
ahead of the December settlement,
and they called again in November
for all the money the counties could
furnish They. had called before,
in September and obtained $153,0O0
of the states 1912 income to patch
the fag end of 1911.
The State House Democrats are
Dragging because they were able to
stave off bill collections in March
and February. 1t was only by de-
laying settlement of many legitimate
bills made by offices, boards, institu-
tions. ETC.. that the Democrats were
enabled to 60 through March with
out calling for money with which to
pay February bills. AS it is, they
present the spectacle of an "econ-
omy" administration yelping for
help in April because of March bills
and February neglect.
What with the bills laid over
from the first half of the fiscal year.
the Democrats are up against the
real thing to meet the piled up ex-
penses now due and to be paid out
of money raised this month by their
advance call. 1t will be necessary
to ask the counties to send in all
the money on hand to tie states ac-
count. This will bring in something
like 100000 of $450.000. This will
be licked up instanter, and there will
be a new call in May for money
with which to pay April expenses.
Then will come Mays bills to be
paid in June, and mighty little will
be left in county treasures to be
sent In as the "June settlement !"
OF course the money raised for the
June settlement is supposed to be
used to pay the states expenses in
the six month thereafter But if the
money is not there; if the money is
; spent In advance. of course there
must be another recourse to advance
calls on the December settlement Of
1912.
1t cost the Democrats 1891 900 in
January to pay the states bills. The
average in 1911 was $3S5.000 a
/ month. At this later average, the
Democrats must raise by advance
calls between now and the June
settlement, the neat sum of $1,155.-
coo. That is how far short they
are of making ends meet at this
time. Will they be able to get the
money? How and where will they
raise it? And if it is not to be
/ had, where will the State House
and their deficit land?

Spring Improvements.

In passing over the city, whether
in an airship or on foot, there are
many evidences of improvements to
he seen. New roofs, new porches,
steps, etc. One can hard
" look in any direction without
seeing new lumber in some i'm
prcyemeut under way. The paper
hangers are busy with inside work
also. The new printing press fac
tory will call for new houses to be
erected for men who will come
here, and it looks as if all classes
of mechanics would be busy In
Plymouth this year. Mr. Stafford
of. the Shoe Shop south of the
bridge, cOntemplates new build
ing on the river bank, and A. G.
Richards will put up new house on
north Michigan street.
New sidewalks will be built in
many parts of the city as soon as
it is safe to begin cement work.
Some needed extensions of water
mains and sewers are being con-
sidered, and the Street Commits
sioner is hard at work with his
men getting things in tidy condi-
ton. A number of lawns and
grounds of private citizens are to
be newly laid out this season, and
with the new Fire Alarm System
new Brownlee bridge, and Other
contemplated works of various
kinds, the advance made by this
city will be such as co mark 1917
