cost of tlio entire street to be Improv
ed according to frontigc, or whero
It provides to chargo tho cost of lm
piovumcnt to the abutting property
for the cost of Improvement In front
thereof. Under both plans the cost
of Improving tho crossings or Inter
millions aro taxed up, flvo-ofghths to
llio four corner lota nnd three-eighths
to the property to center of blocks,
according to frontage
Ity the Sanderson clmrter It Is pro
posed to mako Improvement districts,
nnd to provldo that the city council
shall DfrrnitMINK the cost and as
sess the property they determine Is
benefited, and tbo city council de
termines how much each property
owner must pay, nnd In all these mat
ters tho determination nnd decision
of tho council Is FINAL and CON
CLUSIVE no appeal or review.
Tbo objection to this I. that each
changing council, and even the same
council, will have different and vary-
Irp Idea. a. lo tho benefits and the
I ropcrty affected In the district they
ore laying out for Improvement. No
mm tn buying property would be safe
ur know what ho might be assessed
for his street Improvements, It rest-
l.ig solely In the judgment of the
council. Tho charter should fix, ab
solute, tho rulo of assessment similar
to tho present charter, so that the
frontago ono owns would bo taxed
with the cost of Its Improvement nnd
lu proportionate share of tho Inter
section which should also be made
CI.'UTAIN and DEFINITE
I havo In mind ono of many Illus
trations of how Mayor Sanderson'
rro,)ojeil charter would work on two
dlifcrent owners of property to be
improved on the samo street. "A"
biiya n well located, smooth, level
let, with street In front level, and In
good shape. It may have been so
naturally or hi. predecessor, at great
cost, may havo made It .o. "D" buy.
rough, atony lot, with heavy, expens
ive cut to prepare and make It equal
ly as desirable and valuable a. "A's"
lot The city council determine, to
Improve tho street' under the Sander
son charter. The present council says
A" Is benefited a. much a. "B" by
tho Improvement, and assess them
equMly. After Improvement I. made
r.'s" lot Is as good a. "A'." al
though "A" paid or expended ten
times as much a. "11" for bl. lot.
Next council may look at It different,
and say "A" should only pay fnr
work done In front of his lot, while
"n" should pay for fill or cut to maki
his street ns good n "A.." No lew
to fix It. Each succeeding council
i'h Its Judgment, nnd thereby giving
opportunity for graft, ns well a. work
a' hardship and Inequitable nssetu-mcht.
It might bo some council might snr
we wnnt a macadamired street lo
Sh'rptngton or Mills addition, and so
it will be of great benefit to escu of
thoso suburbs to have a macadamUod
street to their section. We will form
an Improvement district and asses
and tax nil the property In those sub
urbs with such proportion of the cost
as we believe they nro benefited no
mnttor If their lots nro block, wny
from tho Improvement and they can
do It nnd their action Is FINAL nnd
CONCLUSIVE. No appeal or review.
Is this progression or retrogression'
Let us Improve and grow, but let
us bo fair nnd Just to ourselves and
wo will bo fair nnd Just to the new
charter. Let, have a charter that I.
progressive, fair and equitable.
