A CARD
In Herniation of Falne Statement* Made
Against the City Water 00.
To the niblic of Lo« Angelea city:
In the Bereede issued by the anony
mous advocate of city bonds, the state
ment of the revenue per tap is made as
collected by several eastern cities for
their water supply. How misleading it
is if it does not show the family rates
will be seen by the accompanying table.
These cities, except Los Angeles, all
have their own water works; and, while
the revenue per tap averages as repre
sented, the family rates are all far
above. This is explained by the fact
that many of them are large manufac
turing towns, and pay for such purpoees
different rates irom families, and many
of them pay meter rates for manufac
turing uses. .
Then the amount of water furnished
per capita Bhows how much more water
we furnish than any of the cities above
named. If the price should be regu
lated by the amount of water furnished,
then the Los Angeles City Water com
pany furnishes water cheaper than any
city in the list, except Wilmington, Del.

Sacramento, whose works are owned
by the city, makes up a yearly defi
ciency by payment from the cash fund.
No other city on the Pacific coast has
lower average rates than ours, and most
of them are much higher.
It is noted in the Bcreed referred to,
in a comparison of rates between Denver
City, in Colorado, and the municipal
works in South Denver, that the one, a
private company, collects $35.58 per tap,
while the South" company collects only
$11.80. Now, South Denver is a small
place, and has 410 taps only. The
operating expense of the works in 1890
was $3711. The interest on bonded
water debt was $9600, a total of $13.311;
amount collected of consumers directly,
$4943. The shortage of $8868 per year
has to be paid by a tax levy.
Prescott, Ariz., is shown aB collecting
$11.10 per tap. It has 238 taps, and col
lects $2650, leaving a deficiency for
operating expenses and interest of $4150
to be made up by direct tax on the peo
ple.
The statistics given above are col
lected by the Engineering Newß Pub
lishing company, for 1890, and are as
nearly official as it is possible to get.
Many of these cities collect a portion of
their revenue for water iroru other city
funds; that is, the fire department is
charged with a certain amount for fire
purposes, the street department for the
amount used for street purposes, the
eewer department for flushing the bsw
ers. This reduces the amount collected
from private users, but it is made up in
directly from tax levies. It must be re
membered that the Los Angeles City
Water company furnishes all the water
for public use, amounting to quite 1,000,
--000 gallons per day, free. If the city
would pay for this amount, the consum
ers' rate would be largel? reduced. As
their rates are now collected, the prices
average less than those fixed by the city
ordinance ; and only in one particular do
they exceed it, and that is, we make a
minimum rate of $1 per family for small
bouses instead of 75 and 90 cents—while
our contract entitles us to $2. For all
houses of rive or six rooms, with closet,
bath and yard, our rates are lower than
any city ordinance yet made by the city
council.
In another lying screed, probably got
ten up by the same anonymous party, it
is stated that the city of Chicago charges
$6 a year for a good Bized house, with
plenty of lawn, bath and closet, while
this company charges from $100 to $120
per year. This statement is absolutely
false. Iv 1890, Chicago's rate was $10
for an ordinary family, and $3 for
sprinkling the fronts of a city lot, which
average perhaps 10x25 in frontage. For
Btibles and animals a considerable
charge is made. But it should be borne
in miud that Chicago is a great city of
about 1,000,000 people, compactly built,
and is not to be properly compared with
Los Angeles with her many lawns. In
1890 33 of the largest cities in Illinois
averaged $22.74 per family per year.
When we consider the large amonnt of
water used here for lawn purposes, and
the greater cost of laying down a water
plant in both material and wages, the
comparison is highly favorable to the
Los Angeles City Water company, and
no fair-minded man who will take the
trouble to examine this statement aud
look up the authorities we can give him,
can be made to believe that should the
city own its own water works it can sup
ply water any lower, without making up
the deficiency from some other source.
It is proposed to expend $526,000 for
the head-works pumping plant and dis
tributing mains over the territory occu
pied by the Citizens' Water company on
tha hills. This will require an amount
of $52 UOO raer year for the inter
est and sinking fund. Under ordinary
municipal management, it will not be
possible to collect, at the present ordi
nance rates, a sufficient amount to more
than pay the operating expenses of such
a plant, which will necessarily be much
greater than the expense of the present
system, both for fuel and for labor. The
interest and sinking fund will have to
be met by he people of the entire city,
in the shape of an increased tax levy.
The auditor, in his statement of money
required for city purposes for the cur
rent year, asks for over $560,000. Of
this amount, $55,335 are required as in
terest ami $84,550 for the sinking fund
of the debts already incurred. In addi
tion, $395,000 of sewer bonds are just
issued; add this to the foregoing, and
yon have: Interest, $75,085, and for
sinking fund, $104,300. Add to this
$526 000 of water bonds, to be issued for
the joint benefit of only one-fifth of the
population, and it will make the enor
mous amount of $101,385 interest and
$130 600 sinking fund, or a total of
$231,985 as a yearly levy for the fanded
debts alone. Are the taxpayers of this
city prepared to Btand up for this tax,
in addition to the rapidly increasing
LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MOMING, OCTOBER 24, 1892.
annual expense of our growing city?
The anonymous writers for the
water bond advocate would have
the taxpayers believe that the Los An
geles City Water company collect for
water $300,000 per annum. The total
water rates for the three systems under
control by the Los Angeles City Water
company, for the last fiscal year, was
less than $240,000. This was the gross
receipts, out of which all the expenses
of maintenance have to be paid. Could
this city operate the plant, as proposed
tb be constructed by their engineer at
an estimated cost of $2,996,000, and pay
the cost of maintenance and interest,
from these receipts? And how could
they lower the rates, without making
up the deficiency by some indirect
means ? If required to pay
the interest and sinking fund from
the water receipts, it would be absolute
ly impossible to do bo. These are seri
ous questions that taxpayers are called
upon to answer by their votes at the
coming election.
It has not been the policy of the
water company to take notice of all the
foolish and vindictive charges made by
the advocates of the water bonds; but
the anonymous articles above referred
to have been bo widely distributed that
they feel called upon to reply to some of
them at this time.
First—What has the water company
done for the laboring men of this city?
They have distributed more money for
labor, and will continue to do so, than
any other corporation in the city, and
they pay for alt unskilled white labor
cot less than $2 per day, and have
mver yet hired a Chinaman upon their
works. No man has ever Heen dictated
to or interfered with as to his political
beliefs and opinions, and the company
has studiously abstained from mixing
with the Dolitics of the city. The
etatement made in these dodgers to the
contrary is an unmitigated lie.
The stockholders are mostly residents
of the city, interested in its welfare and
proud of its achievements, and ready to
bear their share of its burdens. They
have at all times dealt liberally with
the city, reducing their rates from time
to time as the growth of the city would
justify; and are today selling water at
50 per cent less than the rates specified
in their contract and lease. In their
recent suit with the park commissioners,
they have simply tried to protect the
consumers by preserving their reservoir
from any contamination, and still hope
to prevail upon the park commissioners
to permit them to keep a fence around
the reservoir.
The water right leased by the city, and
the water which is to be delivered to the
consumers, was from the river water:
which has become so turbid of late
years and so filthy as to be unfit
for domestic consumption. This
company has expended large sums of
money to develop spring water, unsur
passed in quality and of sufficient quan
tity for the needs of the entire city,
which they are now delivering through
their mains. The declaration that they
have built their works out of the earn
ings of the property is absolutely false.
The original stock was assessed and
paid up in full. Additional stock was
afterwards issued and paid in full; be
side, they have a bonded debt of $300,
--000 and a floating debt of $100,000, all of
which has been expended in this city in
their plant. They have never paid over
6 per cent per annum in dividends, and
often passed dividends to make needed
improvements at times when the
threatened litigation by the city coun
cil has prevented them from issuing
bonds. And for four years and five
months of their lease no dividends have
been declared.
There are so many statements in these
dodgers, in which they refer to the
water company, that are absolutely
false, that it would take more time and
space to refute them than can be given
in one article; but of this the voters and
water users may be assured, that while
this corporation owns and operates their
works, they will do so without meddling
with the politics of the city, and will
meet the wants of their consumers as
far as it is possible to do so. The com
pany has made arrangements to intro
duce their water upon the territory here
tofore supplied by the Citizens' Water
company; aud believe they can
supply not only a good quality
of water, but at as reasonable
prices as they are doing to the bal
ance of the city. Some of the news
papers of the city have recognized the
danger of voting for bonds at the pres
ent time, and their prudent warnings
hate provoked Bcurrilous attacks from
the frenzied writer of the late anony
mous articles, which are disgusting to
all fair-minded men. Should the writer
of these malicious screeds accidentally
bite himself, he would undoubtedly die
of the venom.
The coat of delivering water to the
people depends upon the cost of the
plant, as well as upon the current ex
pense of maintaining it. Very few citieß
have as large a territory over which it is
necessary to carry the water aB Los An
geles has, and it requires a very
expensive plant to reach all parts of the
territory that we cover. The* number of
fan'ilies that we reach here, are in many
cities within half the area. We have
been obliged to put in small mains to
supply the Bpareely settled districts, but
we replace them as the localities in
crease in population. This great extent
of our mains makes the delivery of
water proportionately moie costly.
Many of these small mains have been
put in by O. W. Cbilds, and by the
Roger's system and by the Eaßt Side
water company, whose plants we have
bought and which mains are being re
placed from time to time, as the demand
would justify.
