When it became necessary to raise [ part of ¢ hicago twelve or fifteen feet \".-‘ majority of the people did not ery down with the taxes ang let well enough alone; they borrowed the raised the taxes anqg the city I onward., There was one old that defieq the progress for a long time but they filleq up all around her little place so high that peopl move womar sing by could spit on the finally hagq to come out 1 s0ld the little hole in the ground for a sum of money that would have lgotten a whole square of it had, it been left as it was, not because she defieq progress but because progress defied her, ang the city moved on- Iward. Then again when the progressives of Chicago realized they could not jempty the sewerage in Lake Michi- ::.m and drink the same water, they Iraised $25,000,000 to build a sew- lerage canal ang the city moved on- | ward so fast that the Illinois Cen- tral railway had to steal a piece of | Lake Mich and fill it up to get {a place large enough to build a ter- minal station to accommodate the | public. | About twenty years ago when Bir- | mingham got to be a good sized town a company gave the low tax advo- cates a few thousand dollars for a Iwater franchise. For many years the ;!.»\\ tax advocates have been kicking | against the high price of water and !V\\r- yearg ago the city commission- lers tried to arrange to buy the wa- | ter works, but the water company | wanteq $5,000,000 for what they |have, and the water company moves ‘um\um and the low tax advocates lzm still kicking | New Orleans tried for about two | hundred years to keep from spending a little money to establish lines and levels on the streets and sidewalks and they got so tangled up it was sary to spend about $25,000 to | astablish grades and make a profile of the streets and sidewalks to keep them from getting in a more hazard ons condition } T.ook over the paved streets and in Lakeland and see the many sidewalks deformed grades with glides that could have been {avoided with a little money spent in stops for grades and lines Lakelang needs is a bond is 0,000 to be spent in mu pa mprovements, divided into following proportions y 1 1sed for a light, water £10.000 for extending ter maing; $20,000 Hollingsworth $200,000 to vay system from P [Tollingswort!
