The Chuir statod tho objoot of tho ‘mooting, nnd oxprossed the hopo that the spoak- ers would bo briof 1 thoir romarks, On motfon of Capt. W. N. Brainard, tho timo of Lho spoochos was limited to fifteon minutes, MR, GILOERT. Mr, Gllbort, Prosidont of the Board of Trus- teos, was oallod for, and respondod. Ho statod that ho dld not oxpeot to make any spoack, bub moroly dosirod to glvo o fow statiatics. His os- timato of tho cost of tho wator-works upon last year's ostimnto would bo $129,000, but ho smd this had boon reducod to $110,000, but ho did not think thoy would cost over $105,000. His esti- timato was baged upon propaan‘n roceived, and 1t was ag figuros which ho knew wero reliablo. follows : For orib, filtor, o Tor muchinory, For bullding, o For piping, cto,, complato. For enginecring and contingenclos Totaliiasaerssessrsanarmnses The cstimate for piping is ns follows: Add - §9,000, for tho extra distance to tne now site proposed, to former ocstimato gives §71,600, Dednot 820 per ton, dooreaso in the prico of iron, pives ©12,780.

Tho re- orts wero all very favorable and showoed that ho advantagos of the puro water wero secured at a vory moderato oxponse. In Des Moines the ropairs on tho enginos had amounted to $5 in two years. Tho local plumbers woro ready to conneot the Elpaa with tho houscs at an_avoragoe of 850, and ad 80 informod tho sponkor. As to tho panio not bolng over, on which account some objected to the entorpriso, Mr. Gilbert thought that the prosent was tho hest, possible time, Ho had al- ‘ways obacrved that tho safost timo to travel upon stenmbosts nnd railronds was immodiately aftor an oxplosion or a collision. TIE NORTHWESTERN UNIVENSITY, Last Tuesday tho spenker, in his offfclal on- ul{{, wroto to tho Trustecs of the Northwost- orn University, asking thom to donate tho land proposed to bo bought for a eite for tho wator- ‘works nt an expense of $3,000. He had recoived the following roply, which offectually contradiot~ ed the allogations of the anti-wator-works party- that tho University would do nothing to ald the onterprise s ‘NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY, EVANSTON, April 18, 1874, @. 7. Glibert, Eug., President of the Villuge Truatees: ‘Dean Bin: 1 have tho Heasurs of scknowledging the recelpt of your recent communication to tho Exec- utive Committeo of the Board of Trustees of tho Northwostern University, Having prosented tho ssme at ‘meofiufi of the Executive Committeo Leld on the 16th, tho following resolution was unanimously passed ; @ Resolved, That wo donate to the Village of Evanston, mubject to fho sppravalof the Board of Trustoos, ol their noxt annual meeting, tho east 200 feot of a str) of land, 120 feot in depth, lying botweon Goodri street, oxtending to tho and the property to tha porth’ owned by W. P, Jones; Esq., as b site for the Watar-Works, on the condition, howaver, that they aro gommenced within eix months, and completed within o years from July 1,1874." Very reapectfully, Winriax H, LunT, Becrotary Northwestern Universily.. Mr, Gilbort stated that, if no obstacles inter- woned, and no unroasonnblo opposition was made, the works could be commenced within four weeks. This announcoment was rocoived with hearty applause. AR WILLIAM BLANOHARD, ‘Mr. Willinm Blanchard, also a member of the’| prosent Bonrd of Trustees, was noxt called on, ond _spoke briefly. o snid that he merely wished to testify to ‘the acouracy of tho dgures given by Mr. Gilbert. They weroe based upon bida rocolved from responsiblo partica. As to tho epccial psness- ment made for laying the water-pipos, the Com- migeioners wore worthy gentlemen, but probably had novor seen an assessment-roll in their Hves, and thoy made an egregious blunder in their estimatos. Instead of tho assossment of 90 conts por front foot, a8 made by them, tho ex- ensos would not oxceed 50 cents por front foot. ndeed, the Board had recoived bids to do tho work af 40 conts. : The only contest comed to bo npon the timo of building thess works, for all admitted thoir ultimato nooossity. But ho was in favor of build- ing them at onco, aud of allowing tho future residents of the town to pay for (l\uml Dby issuing the necossary amount of bonds, * \V’Imt had ggstemy ovor dono for us that wo should hositate lot thom pay tho national dobt,” assomo writer had said, and why ehould not tho future oitizons of Evanston holp to pay for theso works ? Mr. Blanchord also showed that bonds conld not be issucd to exceed b per oont upon the asgosecd valuntion of real cstate in the village, Taking the notual valuo of the ldnd,—tho prico for which it could bo gold,—the bonds oould not exceod 2 por cont of tho valuation, suroly not a vory heayy burden, M, HUBE. Mr. Obadiah Huso, ono of the Commissioners, 080 to oxplain what ho considered a falso im- prossion in regard to the speolal assessment xeferred to. Ho stated that they were compelled to distributo a certain amount, and make all assossed help pay for- the 12-inch pipe. The Commissioners, ho said, could not assess those ‘beforo whose land the large pl[llun wors laid, but had only fulfillod their oaths of office in distrib- uting the cost of these among all who were to be ‘benefited. ; A, L. 0, PITNER was next loudly called for, and stopped upon tho platform. ~Ho said that -his remarks would be oonfined to disoussing two questions : Would water-works l’,‘ ? aud Were they roady to pay for thom? Within two or threo years he was sure that tho population of Evanston would be donbled if 1t possessed tho advantages of the Wator-Works. As & consequonce, business of all Linds would_bo proportionately ' lucrensed, and thoso of all trades and ocoupations would be equally bonefited. The advantages of water-works, gas, otc,, ndded to the many pros- ent attractions would surely have this result. As to the ocost, Mr. Pitnor thought that the works would !my. even if they cost $200,000, Ho was satisflod that evorybody would make a pete tor proflt from them than thoy could in any ordi- nary business, Ho did not belleve In rushing wugly intodobt. IHe did not boliove in anythin; that did not pay, in this world or tho noxt, an always wanted to count tho cost. But he fully beliovod that tho enterprise would be successful and profitable, if bravoly entered unpon, If it was nocessary to mako & tinction botweon rich and poor mon, ho thought the lat- ter would bo cliofly benefited, bocauso tho for- mer would have to boar most of tho oxpenso, whilo tho profit wonld come back to all nqunl.l‘y. If the town waited until an imzvrovomont would not press hard upon & few, nothing would ever be done. [Applauso.] JUDGB MILLER. Judge H. G. Millor noxt roceived s ¢ oall.” Mr, Millor stated that the provious spoaker had grnuemnd the questionin its truo l‘l’gm. The st quostion ia: Did_the peoplo over intend to lave wator-works? Tho villago presonts many unusual atiractions, and was mainly ocou- glud by thogo doing business in the city, “To in- uce thoso to gottlo in Evanston, they must be givon gpod homes. To this end, puro water and goworago woro & nocossity. People would not loave tho olty for Evanston, until theso tacllitios wero grnvldmt g Tho sposker also roferred to the amount of bonds which would be issued by the village.
