Council Committe Makes Two
Decfslons Bearing Directly
on Irvlngton. Trouble;
Two Interesting questions In relation .
to the protest against the acoeotance
of the Irvlngton , sewer were passed
upon by the council committee on .
sewers and drainage this morning. The
first was this; .
A man or womaa whoae asseaamant
la leas than I2S cannot pay la install
ments for his or hec assessment under
the atate bonding law. The second was
that any person owning a lot and pay-i
Ing an assessment ef llXtO for the
building of the Irvlngton sewer oannot '
have the assessment canceled except .
through the council. . . 1
"And If they have It done and a new
district should be created, assessments
eould be made lust tha same.- said
City Attorney McNary. "The trouble
la that the petltionera did not file their
remonstrance three years ago when the
district was planned, Ws cannot make
a new dlatrlct The situation Is un
fortunate. It we allow the people to
pay one-half of the assessment and
compromise with them they could fight
the matter out In the courts and might
escape ths payment , of the remainder
or the assessment Th whole
will have to way If
Oeorge B. Frank, president of the
Northeast- Improvement club, said few
people in hla community had aeen the
advertisement of tax for the sewer in
the official paper. - The paper, he said.
was not newspaper and was not taken
by the people.
"I tried to tail the court that It waa
not a newspaper but my attempt was
Ineffectual," said City Attorney MoNary.
"The court said the paper was a news--paper
of general circulation anoW '- .
Mr. McNary waved his hands broadly
and this was taken 'aa a physical In''
terpretauon or the remainder of his
Story. -. 5 :. v . '
Mrs. M. M. Hunter said the sewer
would be an injury to the residents of
the district as eonnectlon could not
be made for1 two years. Several others
spoke against It . The committee, af - -ter
hearing all the arguments, referred '
the matter to tha council. . , 1
