MVKR tCORES COUNCIL. Editor Enterpriser At the solicita tion of some of my frlenda I will try to glv to tb public tbe facts aa I so them In regard to the Improve ment of Sixth Btreot adjacent blocks 138 and 139. My understanding la that the bid waa $11.04)0 from Jlljth to Jackson, eight blocka. I am told tbat the coat waa $13,500. Now, If w count out block between High and Center, which coat $3,600, or nrore. would leave seven blocks at a cost of $10,000, being a total of 56 Iota, at an average coat of about $175 per lot. Aa tb atreet adjacent to blocka 138 and 139 la about tha least work (no rock) would not be "more than an average. But what do w find? The coat I $1,700 for the block or $212 per lot. Must be a mistake somewhere. We hav tba Intersec tion on Biith and Monro on lota 7 and I to cost $124.90: Mind yon this Is 3030 feet Tb circumstances are thua: Nature never put any rock on tbla Intersection, but some years ago without my consent- tb council of thl. city placed rock In th man holes. Now, without my consent, the present council , come, along and saya, "Mr Myera, we will charge oyu $150 yer yard for moving aald rock." I had nothing to do with putting the rock there, neither did nature: un der natural conditions tb excava tion would hav cost me 25 cents per yard. Am I morally or legally bound for th Increase cost of $$1.25 per v.... . . 1... I. klMb IRQ wniCh I onerea lO several panics for th Improvement of Sixth street for $400. Tb assessments on these lota la $417. On lot He In th can yon, hence tha appraisers had to take the matter In hand. Fifty per cent of $400 I. $200, which I am willing to pay, but our wis committee aaya the Increase by virtu of Improvement Is $150 plu. $400 equal. $550; 60 per cent of $550 equals $276. Do you see tbe Joker? But let ua take another view. If tha lota are now worth $550 and I pay $275 my lota originally were worth only $275. Another analysis please, where John Qulncy Adam streets la Improved, th coat being equal to cost of Sixth street $417. In crease In value thereby $150 plus $550 equala $700; 60 per cent assess ment $350 plus assessment on 81xth atreet $276 equal $626. Where, oh where, la th original value . You anewr: "Now If thla la not confiscation or robbery, what la It " Have I a right to kick? Dear It to you. Now In conclusion will say that I never In my life voted against a school or road tax, but th roade must ba for th purpoae of tran.portlng tha producta of honest toll, not for automobllea to--transport human vul turea. School tax for common or public, not aectarlan. I atand for collectivism vi. Indlvlduallam. co operation va. competition. A demo cratic form of government va. demo cratic aham, Initiative referendum and recall from auprema Judge to city councilman. Now, Mr. Mayor, and City Council, let m whisper In your ear. You ar not th city, but th people ar. You can't keep up appearancea by taxing tha laboring people to death. Neither can you keep back a panic by atreet Improvements W ar liable to have aome rainy daya aoon and that people will be demanding work and when that time arrirea w should try and provide It for them. . In time of prosperity prepare for adveralty. Remember big bualnesa takea 6 cper cent bonds; boosting land value, means dear bomea for poor people. Th dearer tha home the more labor It takea to pay for It Th greater th prlc th fewer bomea will ba owned by laborera. Th few. ar homea owned by laborers, greater la th alavery. Mor slavea meane the alavery, Mor alava mean, chaoa. Chaos leada to anarchy. Re member labor paya all bllla fjret, last and all tb time. But aay, fha last act of th City Council of double atreet aesessment baa Just about well, yea baa mada a alngla taxer of me. . . . Youra. for humanity, - W. W. MYERS.
