Another innovation that is said to effect a more oquitablo assessment is a ' provision whereby owners of corner lots ,1111 not havo to pay for sewers on both streets. The cost of the sewer jOn ouo oide will be assessed acainst 'him only bovond a certain point in i the depth of the lot. , A. rough draft of the proposed nieas are has roecn made and submitted lo lithe commissioners by tho Commercial J club, but it is understood that a morn s complete bill will be drawn for intTO I duction to the legislature. 81 Could Shout for Joy.
