FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
- W. W. 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.
