Second Regular Meeting of the] Mayor Lang Wants It Put In By General Taxation—Thinks It a Public Improve- ment. But Sewerage That Reduces (he ‘auses of Diseases Is Not a Public publican Council's ldea, Improyement—Re- Mayor Lang was asked what kind of surface sewerage he would recom- mend, by a Sun reporter, this mo’ ing. He mentioned surface tewer- age for Broadway from Ninth to the river to the council last night. “Why, a system for carrying off surface water,” he said. It would enable us to widen Broadway and de a with wooden crossings.'* “How will you recommend paying for it, sked the reporter, ‘*By general taxation,” responded the mayor. ‘It would be a public improvement, you see, and all citizens would be benefited by promptly “Well, how about the other kind of sewerage being a ‘public improve- ment’ aud benefiting the entire city?” asked the reporter, remem- bering the attitude the maj sumed towards the sanitary sewerage in his inaugural proclawation, and his objection to the intersections be- ing paid for by general taxation No, I don’t think it is,’’ an- swered the mayor, ‘‘A fellow down here can tap the sewer, while the man ont farther bas to pay to have ath water, hauled OF a8- etc But aren't the sewers a benefit to the entire city, althoagh they miay be more so to those the line of the pipe who live And isn’t t i jsystem of sanitary sewerage just ax much & public improvement as the surface sewerage — proposed Mayor Lang ssid he «didn’t think it was, The Republican council was wrest- ling with the problem of surface sew- erage for Broadway when it retired from off and to it belongs the would » | have ge credit of taking the initiative steps towards securing it. The first ordi- mance passed required the sewerage to be constructed at the city’s ex- pense, about $6,000 being the esti- mated cost. It was subsequently decided, how- ever, to require the property owners to pay the costs, as nearly all evinced a willingness to pay their quota of the expense. Mayor Lang’s idea is to have the general public taxed, however, whether the property own- ers are willing to pay fyr it or not. ARM BROKEN, ™ Mrs. Capt. W. C.
