MAYOR AND WA TER

WHY RA TES IN CREASED

Statements made by Mayor Free

plainly show that the raise of water
rates, recently approved by the board
OF city commissioners, was demand
ed in compliance with the provisions
of the city charter relative to the
maintenance of the water department
Section s. of Article ., of the city
charter contains the following clause:
And whenever any such public i'm.
provements shall have been ON
structed, by means derived from the
sale Of bonds as above provided, it
shall be the duty of said board of
commissioners TO fix the rates charg.
ed for service to the public, as near
ly as practicable, so as to pay the
interest and not less than three per
cent per annum on the principal of
such bonds, in excess of the expenses
of maintenance and operation"
In order TO make the water depart
ment self sustaining, enough monies
must be received to pay the interest
on the bonds, reimburse the sinkina
fund.- and meet the current cost OF
maintaining the department, accord
ing to Commissioner Carters state.
ment.
When the estimate was made, last
July, 1t was found that the mainten,
ance sf the water department cost
the city approximately A cents per
one thousand gallons. Prior to the
date on which the new rates went in
TO effect the maximum rate received
was 81 1-2 cents per thousand gal.
Ions, while the minimum was as low
as eight cents per thousand.
The new rates, based on the latest
estimate, will take care of the entire
cost of operation for the next year,

In speaking of the right of way
proposition in connection with the
highway from Lone Grove TO Heald
ton which right of way must be
secured from property owners be-
fore any federal aid can be secured,
have charge Of getting the right of
way stated Saturday that he is going
10 use every means in his power to
get the property owners TO agree TO
the proposition upon reasonable terms,
but in the event that any one opposed
the proposition he proposed TO go
before the court and have condemna-
tion proceedings instituted at once in
order that the work not be delayed
an hour longer than necessary.
Mr.. Taylor says that he does not
think it probable that he will en-
counter any serious opposition TO the
plan, but in the event that there
is any he will be in position to bring
matters 10 quick settlement.
Some Of the property in question
is owned by full blood Indians and
will have to be handled through the
Department OF Interior
Mr.. Taylor said that he could see
no reason why any man should op.
pose the highway or hinder its con.
struction in any particular, the fact
OF its being built will add to the
value of every acre OF real esUte
that it passes. and in his opinion
should be welcomed by every prop,
erty owner.
Commissioner Taylor will probably
begin the work Of securing the right
OF way, Monday morning and he urges
all property owners to cooperate with
him in expediting the matter.
