although he had tendered the necessary funds to pay his share of the special assessment "I would like to have something done" said he "so that men who want to build houses and give laboring men the work they need this fall can get the water out to their property especially when they are willing to pay their share of the expense Incurred understand that the board ciatms that it has no money to make these extensions with but it is making exten sions down at Ecorse and Delray Can the board lay pipe down there without money? It eems a great pity that con tractors and property owners should be prevented from making Improvements now that material has gotten down where they can afford to do The attention of Judge McGrath of the water board was called to th matter and he made in substance the following state ment: "ft is true that we have no money at present with which to make these exten sions The members Ot the water board are all public spirited men and they re gret exceedingly that anyone should be prevented from building but they cannot afford relief in a matter which is entirely beyond their control The special assess ment law has been knocked out by the Su preme Court and the board of estimates cut down our appropriation so much that we cannot make extensions unless the In terested parties stand for the outlay Of course I know what some people would like to have us do They would like to have us raise the water rates to tn order to get money to make all of these extensions but I will never consent to such an arrangement long as I remain on the board Water plant has cost up to date about MuutOOu and only one third of that sum has been paid by the city The remainder nf the cost has been borne by the rat payer and I believe that ho has done enough for the present Anyone who is familiar with questions connected with the water supply system knows per fcetly well that a large percentage of tho water pumped is used for public purposes and he also knows that a large share of tho pipe laid and the installation of general service is for the benefit Of the public and for that reason I maintain that the public should tMar its share of the cost of the en terprise 'Regarding the statement that the water board Is making extensions In districts out side ot the city I would like to say that anyone can get water who is willing to do what these people outside the city limits are doing Every ent nt expense incurrc in making these outside extensions Is paid by the parties Interested and I shall guar Htucn pipes bill" tho that Col over Star man NEPARATrOX GRADES AT WOOD WARD ATEVI CROSSING REcnviTiXr: drriCE ftVfcR A The Only Way0 to See Detroit in Two Hours!

They maintain further that the city should not consider it a victory until the laws of the state are so amended that the city can force the separation of grades upon the railroads all at once and
