Strong Argument That Should Be Thoroughly Digested by All Voters. Asked a* lo bto view* regarding (be proposed bond jssoe of 875.000 for Unproved drainage and brick gutter*. Mayor Creme thus-expreeaed himself: ’In my annual message of laet Jan■I have before expreraed opinion my it a comprehensive and lasting image system should be provider! of Ibe proceed* of a bond Issue. The Board of Heallb, In order to p’rolectNjie.good name of Ocean City a* a health raaort, to taking step* to have the low-lying tonda between Eleventh Heventeentb Mreet*. and Weal Haven avenues, fllled in, and I cannot urge upon yon too strongly that, before Ibe filling I* done, the -O' underground drain be put In position. I have taken-some pain* to from experienced persona tbat ork can be done, before Ibe deep Itll to pumped In, for about 60 per cent. Ihe coat required after filling. "'Every consideration of economy id good business mauagameut should prompt ua lo lay Ibe** main* Orel: '□ flll In afterward.' ■The year before lhl*, I ex preraed 'self on the subject a* follow*: ' The city to growing wider on both It* eastern aud western boundaries, and, on account of tbe filling up if Ihe bey front and tbe boUdlng of Bay aveuue. tbe mailer of proper and sufficient drainage to gelling lo be one urgently requiring atteuliou. Till* extensive aud lu requirements of *0 permanent a nature tbat It doesn't seem a flt subject for direct taxation. I believe tbe time to aoon at com prehenatve drainage system, Including new and larger ill have to be provided, and, while 1 dread tbe necessity for bond Issue-, 1 believe this Improvement will entirely warrant a bond Issue, pay'd which will partly fall on tbe future. Tbe preaeut temporary plecemgfll methods are nellher effective nor economical In relieving a condition ftrat to rapidly growing worse.' That waa my opinion at that time, d 1 have no reason to change my mind, except only lo become more cooflrmed In my opinion of tbe advisability—yea, necessity—for this Im-

provement.

"The only reasons I bavs beard advanced against It are that It baa been gone Into In e harty, inconsiderate way and tbat we cannot afford It on account of a present annual deficit of 820,000 a year. "Even tbe opponent* admit tbat It •bonld be done, but for tbe above reeaon* (T) are not ready to commit tbemaelvse lo It at this time. It rat objection, I can only ray tbat tbla Improvement baa been dtocuaasd and carefully coartdered for at least two yean by tbe men who are most vitally Interested In tbe future w elfare of Ocean Clly.
