imPayment'ol Water Taxes

u—H

The petition which has been circu«
luted among the property owners or
the First district, praying for relief
from a double water tax falling due on
May first, which resulted lrom the ex-
elusive story in The Sentinel, was‘
presented to the commissioners of the
district this noon The document boreA
the names of nearly forty signers, all
of whom are prominent citizens.

Because of the fact that the city tax,
which is due April first, is heavy and
a burden to the pxoperty ouners in lt-1
self, Tile Sentinel foxesaw that many
of the First district citizens would sul-
l’er hardships if they were obliged to
pay on May that u yeai 1.; water rate.
So the story was printed and it stat ted

who have signed the petition is to 11111 c

making the water rate payable in ad-
vance beginning on May first and make
another one setting he date later.

Those who have at xed their signs.-
tures to the document and many oth-
ers have unreservcdly given their ap-
proval to the stand taken by The Son-
tinel, which is in the interests of the
First district taxpayers. And many
have commented upon lite fact that
the uptown paper, presumably 9. Flint
district organ, has not published a
word regarding the petition. There
are some who have in emphatic terms
denounced that paper for failing to
take up the agitation and print it, as

news, ev’on if such action is against

the government agents having these
