COUNTING THE COST

The Times says it will cost about
$500 to hold an election on the wa
ter ordinance. 1t may cost "some
people" that to carry 1t, but it should
not cost the city that much. There
ares wards and If five commissioners
and clerks and two challengers are
employed at each precinct 1t will
cost about s112, besides the printing
of the ballots which will not exceed
$4,000 including the poll books.
But on the other hand it will cost
the people about $4,000 to meter
the city and will add about $4,000
to the water rents. Which is the
cheapest for the people, $500 spent
now or 100000 spent within year
for meters with an increased annual
outlay for all time TO come of pos,
sibly $4,000.

WONT STAND COMPARISONS,

1.-THE increase will be to those who
consume large quantities OF water in
industries and by mechanical meth
eds for which they have been paying
but nominal sum and in some cases
nothing at all.'-The Times.
Let us see about that. Under the
old system there Is II meter rate which
according to the printed list Of rates
is as follows: HI ,,y,
Meters - 10000 gallons or less
per quarter, acc per 5000, gallons.
Next 10000 gallons zoe per L.
600 gallons. 80
Each additional 1000 gallons, zoe
per 1000 gallons.
zoe in the lowest price quoted on
meter rates to the large consumer
as against sc rate now proposed for
the benefit Of the large consumer.
With the sole exception of ny
craulic elevators, factories and steah,
laundries which have meter rate of
&C per 1000 gallons. regardless OF
quantity used (
And there is an additional clause
added to the present rates for eleva-
Tors which reads as follows: "Elcya.
tors-hydraulic, present flat rates to
be increased 80 per cent"
So we see that under the new plan
the large consumer is to have his rate
reduced from &c to &c notwithstana-
Ing the fact that the Times says there
is now only q nominal sum being
raid. Under the old ordinance this
nominal sum could have been in
creased without new ordinance by
enforcing the existing rates. which
the commissioners had the right to
do, and should have done in justice to
the people.
No citizens will be so blind IS not
to see that the discrimination Il
made greater against the small con
sumner under the new plan and It was
certainly great enough under the old
plan. which made the lowest rate to
the large consumer &c per thousand
gallons and added to that 80 per
cent. increase for elevators.
The meter rates will not stand the
light of comparison with other near,
by towns nor with the present rates
supposed. to be in force---but which
according to the Times admission,
are not enforced the charge being
made thatsth charges are only .ttnoln.

themselves to US want, and so far
there has not been one man as far as
we.know in the city who has express
ed himself in favor of the new water
ordinance. But why not let the peo-
pie say? Under the present charter,
with all its faults, We can have a gov
ernment "of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people," Does any
body object to that? All we have to
say If the people want to vote on the
water ordinance they have the priv
iicgc of signing a petition giving
them that privilege and If they do
not we know of no one urging them
to do SO. And should the petition
for referendum vote be signed by
enough voters to give an election 1t
is again put up to the people. II they
approve the new water ordinance by
fair election and fair count all well
