is no house in town which cannot be connected to the proposed system of laterals, which will reach every block in which there is connection needed.
 Others object to the increase in taxes, while there will be no increase in taxes because of the sewer; the only expense the property owner will have will be the cost of his line from the house to the lateral in the ad- joining street or alley, the fee of the inspector for inspecting the connec- ton when made, and the annual rent of $9.OO for dwellings, and other structures in proportion; the annual rates charged will be the same as now charged by the Sewer Company, but after operating the proposed system few years the Common Council may1 decide to lower the rates instead of figuring on an earning fund.
 Still others object to the price to be paid for the old system; even if the cost of tearing up the pavement of the business district, and of making the necessary connections to the buildings now served was disregarded, it would be impossible to duplicate the present system for the amount at which it is appraised, and what trouble it has given in the past was practically all due to insufficient flushing; so it appears that the great est need at the present time, in order to improve the town, is campaign to explain to the taxpayers just what is to be done and has been done, in the sewage problem.
 This means more than publication covering the benefits of sewers, in- serted in a newspaper, as all tax-pay- CTS will not read it; some not having the paper, and others not reading the article because they are already fami- liar with the subject, having formed their opinions several years ago, but the majority of the people who are not in favor of the bond issue, take that stand because they have been misinformed, and these are the peo- pie an effort should be made to reach personally by those who have the time and understand the proposition.
