IX Wsrnon, tha father of tha a.-hamr. said tha merobera of the water board war highwayman and paid hla respects to Mr. Haines. - Mr. Ilsinea declared that the "free water" plan had Ita a-enesis la fha single tax Idea. One of tha comparisons he drew waa: ,, ' ,v " " "Some compare eeweri to water 7S teme. Bewera are paid for by the prop erty benefited, but they furniah nothlns . that can be appropriated to tha nee of any Individual and cannot be built on any baala except taxation. Water en the other band Is something tangible that an be used and waated and a cer tain portion appropriated by each one, "Water Coata Koaey. j - "The land owner should pay for tha aewer and also for tha water mains but there the analog? enda. The city doea not have -to keep the aewer sup plied with anything, but It la under ob ligation after the water plpee are laid to keep them full of water to be con aumed and thla coata something. If the water a person uaea were not calculable, aa la tha use of a aewer or bridge, there could be no other way to furniah water than by taxation, but water caa be measured "and the con sumer should pay bla just proportion for tha water he consume." Further along in hla "remarks . Mr. Hainea advocated the use of water me ters. He called attention to the fact that "free water" was opening up tha whole municipal ownership problem. ITe pointed out that the water board wouia hare no authority over the water sys tem were the Wagnon amendment adopt ed, and that It waa planned apparently for the purpose of doing away with the superintendent and engineer. . Bsed of IMpeUae. '. Regarding the amendment proposed by the council aa compared with tha Waa-noa measure, ne sata; "The amendment first provides for a bond issue of t3.000.80A for a sew Bull Run slDellne and for , meters.

Sayta of Malae, v "Mains are to be layed by assessment when recommended by the water board. Thia la practically -in accord with the so-called free water amendment ex cept that the water board shall have charge of the work aa la right." Mr. Haines had prevtouely pointed out that aa the dtr engineer 1s an officer appointed by the mayor and under the Wagnon amendment-' he . would have practical charge of the water system a systematic plaa of development could hardly be expected.
