To dispel any suspicion of extravagance in its views or aims, the Board need only invite «com comparison of the work ac- complished within that at so heavy anout- lay, with the comprehensive plan = oe prove= ments which it proposes to ina com- bes within the limit of the esti Rate erhaps proper to explain, in this connec- tion, ese estimates are upon the op rates paid for similar improvements by the city of W: less twenty per cent., deducted in view of the plan proposed by the board to pay cash for ail work that may be done under its P direction. It was to a great extent Spee under the old system, to commence and complete an improvement in advance of any arrange iment for the yment of the cost. Con- tractors were compelled to consider this fact, and also that, as th m was rarely in funds to meet its obligations, the assessments, when made, would not Syield more than eighty cents on the dollar. To meet this condition of afiairs they generally added to their estimates twenty per cent. Another objectionable practice which, in some instances, prevailed prior to the organization of a government for the District, was that of ex- cessive measurements in computing the amount of work done. This will be prevented by the establishment, in advance, ef the exact quanti- tics of each Kind of work to be exec: uted; and thus, when a contract is entered inte, the entire the terms of the organic act even the Legislative Assembly is prohibit after a con- t has been made, trom granting or authoriz- ‘extra allowance” or “compensation” tothe contractor. Heretofore no it rement made could be con- sidered ay Jin numerous instan ces property assessed’ tor work, which it was supposed would accomplish the object desired has, in a short time, been reassessed to remedy some real or fancied defect in the plans first eeuted. The system adopted by the Board mplates that a street having once been im- proved, the property-bolder will not be required to meet another assessment for that particular eet, and that the only expense thereafter will ‘or ordinary repairs that may, from time to time, become necessary. It will be seen, upon examination, that the statement embraces a th ae system of im- provements, which may require ‘years for com- pletion. The Board is of opinion that the interests of the District imperatively require that the necessary a pre n should at once be granted, in © operations may be commenced without pies Contracts for ma- terial can then be so regulated as to thwart monopolies and improper combinations, yrojected improvements may be a Fach connection, the one with the other, as to accomplish the largest results for the least out- lay. governments heretofore Under the municipal existing, about Saree gees) thousand dollars were yearly collected and expended as ward and county funds, for casual repairs and local ime provements, and, in addition a large amount -vas collected and eyplies from the general fund.

Regarding the effect of this plan upon the eral taxes of the District, the Board respect ally submits that to pay the interest on $4,358,598 in bonds will require, in currency, $305,101.86. Add the estimated premium on gold for the next one or two years, at ten per cent., and the amount required to pay the interest will be $335,611; an addition of three per cent. on the principal, in hich will be more than ne to id bonds,) gives #466368.as tho amount which will have to be raised by taxation to pieet yearly the interest and principal of the fo a loan. Of course, with ‘cach car the debt wil and in & bxief period the rate of taxation will be much less than that stated.
