g true that the original bonded
indebtedness for the
was assumed by public spirited in-
dividuals, and as a result of it, as
the water works did not pay in the
beginning, a large part of the bor-
ough tax for some years succeeding
the construction of the works was
used to retire this $10,000. In ad-
dition to the $50,000 which the
works originally cost, possibly $15,-}
000 more has been expended for ex-
tension of mains, subside, outlet
from bottom of reservoir, new dam,
new race, new machinery, etc. It is
conservative to say that the works
as they are at present have cost not
less than $65,000. The $10,000
floating indebtedness was paid pri-
or to 1890. No bonds were retired
prior to that time. Most of the
betterments have been made and
paid for since 1880. That is: $15,-
000 betterments and $13,000 bonds,
or $28,000 has been paid off in
twenty-two years, and $10,000 previ-
ous to that time, or $38,000 all told.
If Mount Joy concludes to build
the filter plant, even if it costs $15,
000, there will be a bonded indebi-
edness on the works of $42,000, an
amount $8,000 less than the works
originally cost.
There was no income from owr
water works before 1875, and for a
number of years following that time
the income did not meet the outgo;
but note the difference now. Last
year's income from water was over
$5,500. To pay the inetrest at 4
per cent on $42,000 only requires
$11,680, leaving the difference to
maintain the works and retire the
bonds.
The water works was constructed
in 1874. The assessed valuation of
Mount Joy is nearly twice as high
now as it was then. If our town
then could shoulder a debt for wa-
ter of $50,000, with no income as-
sured, surely 342,000 should not
make it stagger now.
The writer of this article is in-
different as to whether or not a
filter plant is built; but if the citi:
zens should decide to build it, he
feels assured that it will not be nec-
essary. to change the tax rate oa
account of it, and it will be a simple
matter to retire $1000 worth of
bonds annually.
The debt for water is not like the
school debt. Each year since we
installed the works the income has
