Mr. Richard T.

That is, there was a profit of $36,- 671.60, or a ttle over $8,000 per annum. Hence, it would appear that the water-main tax not only lays the mains but actually is a source of surplus Tevenue. ‘The stavement furnished by the Coin- suissioners and printed in the Post August 27, 1887, shows the receipts from Water rents for 1887 to be $139,540.49, “It ie, of perfectly obvious that from year to year, as the water taxes increase, the suins derived ‘trom the water rents increase.’ Under the law, thereiore, it cannot be seen how there can be any’ increase i the rates unless there be an in- crease in the e.expeuse, not of water distribution, yut in“ up’ the already existing suppl water.

TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE POLES, Mr. Noble D. Larner, from the committee on streets, avenues and alleys, reported back the communication from Association No, 3, com- platuing of the injustice done to residents py the Commissioners allowing the erection of telegraph and telephone poles along the streets and in the alleys. The report stated that the committee Was unanimously of the opinion that the people have Just cause for complaint; that their property has been injured, and that the cen- tral committee ougnt to take to the Temoval of these poles, and to force the Commis- stoners to adhere to the policy announced soine- Ume ago of bringing all these wires underground, ‘The committee recommended that the matter be Teferred to the executive committee for such ac- tion aswill secure a prompt remedy. ‘The report Was adopted. “Mr. Larner said that the represent— atives from the ith and ninth districts had never attended a meeting of his committee, and ne hoped in the future that theye districts would be represented. REFORT ON INCREASED WATER RENTS. ‘Mr. W. H. Singleton, trom the committee on Water supply and sewerage, submitted a report upon the resolution from Association No. 3, which Provided (1) that the Committee of One Htndred aak the President to place the water works exten- ston under Gen. Meigs or Col. Casey; (2) that they petition Congress to investigate the water ment from 1871; (3) that they petition Co: to relieve the District trom paying the amount un- necessarily expended upon the water works ex- ‘The report recommended the rejection of the first and third propositions on the ground that it would be unwise for the representative committee to recommend any change in the personnel of those in authority in the District, and that the question of extravagant expense was one on whlcn the committee had no conclusive data, and it might be considered question of professional opinion. ‘The adoption of the second proposition wes recom mended, as the necessity for it was apparent, and that the authorities in the District. adunitued that ‘there was some confusion in the accounts of the water department. ‘The resolutions submitted from. No. 8 were next considered, asking whether It is Just “to charge for a water main after aciuizen had put it down at his own expense;” whether “the increase 4m water rents and the charge of $5 upon little cake and fancy stores” 18 just; and stating that the allegations made against the water ment by the meeting at Shea's Hall should be in- vestigal In regard to the latter recommendation the re- port stated that in the opinion of the committee no fnvestigation should be undertaken unless charges were made by some member of the repre- sentative committee. In regard to the other two recommendations the committee submitted an elaborate report In regard to the increase in the water rents, THE LAW OF THE QUESTION. ‘The report states that the Revised Statutes of the United States relating tothe District makes ‘the District of Columbia a municipality, and the act of the Forty-ffth Congress, chapter makes the Commissioners oMicers: therech, and ths act of the Forty-sixth Congress, chapter 16, con- fers upon the Commissioners the powers and Umi tations provided in c! ler 8 of Revised Stat- utes, of which the most important are section 197, The legislative assembly has authority to es tablish a scale of annual rates for the su; ply and use of the water apportioned to ‘different of buiidis stores, shops, stables, manufactures, and to modity, alter, amend, increase, or reduce Such scale from time fo time, and generally to en- act such laws as may be necessary to supply the free ns Menengen -_ rene with jure and wholesome water, and to carry into full Erect the provisions of this chapter, Section 198. The water rates levied tn Wash- ington and Georgetown shall never be a source of revenue than asa meansof keeping up to said cities a supply of water, but. shall cou stitute a fund exclusively for te maintenance, ment, and repair of the system of water distribution. “From this it is evident,” continues the “that the District of Columbia is a municipal cor- oration, of which the Commissioners are the oft. cers, and Uhat the Congress has conferred upon Such officers certain powers, one of whieh 1s tolay annual rates for the supply and use of water and to vary the scales.” ‘The report then says that in the case of Roach vs. Van Riswick, Macarthur and Mackey, 171, the Supreme Court of the District, in discussing ‘the position of Congress In relation to tue District, held that Congress could dele munictpal but not legislative powers to ‘the District government, among which are enu- merated the preservation of public order health, the regulation of markets and report then continues: From these laws and inues: the judicial interpretation of the authority of the ess, It Is clearly deducible that the: €an delegate to the municipality of the of Columbia the authority to lay annual taxes for water rent, and to vary the scale thereof, And a3 the Commissioners are the it Officers OT gov- poopy ‘munict re. ‘m.

SINGLETON’S REPLY. Mr. Singleton replied that the understanding of the law by the committee was that it did not con- ‘template that rents be increased to pay the prin- cipal, but only that the rents be sufficient to pay ‘the interest on one-half of the principal, in and on to maintaining the old system as well as tue new system. Ifsthere be aby surplus It is to be covered into the Treasury toward paying the | shee cipal.

The presence of lime is attributed to the impure cream of tartar of commerce used in their manufacture. Such cream of tartar was also snalyzed and found to contain ime and other impurities, in some samples Wo the extent of 93 per cent of their entire weight. All the baking powders of the market, with the single exception of “Royal” (not including the alum and phosphate Powders, which were long since discarded ag unsafe orineMctent by prudent housekeepers) are made from the impure cream of tartar of commerce, and consequeptly contain Ime to a@ corresponding extent, ‘The only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to be entirely free from lime and absolutely pure is the “Royal” ‘This perfect purity results from the exclusive use of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared by patent Processes, which totally remove the tartrate of Mme and other impurities. The cost of this chemically pure cream of tartar is much greater than any other, and on account of this greater cost 1s used in no baking powder but the “Royal.” Prof. Love, who made the analyses ot baking powders for the New York State Board of Health, as well as for the Government, says of the purity and wholesome- ness of “Royal”: “I have tested a package of ‘Royal Baking Powder’ which I purchased in the open market, and find 4t composed of pure and wholesome ingredients, It 1s a cream of tartar powder of a high degree of merit, and does uot contain either alum or phosphates or any injurious substances. “E.
