If . this money was to be refunded to the respective property own ers It would be a different proposition. Then, no doubt, a great many would be willing In order to save delay to advance the money to the city, for, as had been stated by different members at your board, there is no money at present .on hand to make these necessary extensions. There must be a better way than yon propose, one that will do justice to all, and we hope you will find- it. In the matter of water meters, these should be . put in at the 'least. -possible expense to the property owners, : and, whenever possible, be put In cellars and basements, rather, than force a man to spend S10 to build a pit out In the street; We also wish, po call your attention, to the fact that a worklngman who wishes to sprinkle his lawn has no timeto do so between the hours pf and 8 a. m., be--pause most of them are on. their way to work beforea ,.
