At tho approaching general election tho voters of tho on tiro .Stato will be called upon to grant permission to tho cities of Columbia, Hock Hill, Charles ton, Georgetown and Florence to increase their bonded indebtedness far in excess of tito constitutional limit of eight per cont of tho taxa blo property of said municipalities, respectively, for the purposo of erecting water-works plants, sewerage systems, gas and elocttic light plants. The pro posed amendment is as follows: "Add to the end of Section 7, Ai tide VIII, this proviso: 'Provided, That the limitation imposed by this Section and by Section ?">, Article IV, of this Constitu tion shall not apply to bonded indebted ness incurred hy the cities of Columbia, Hock Hill, Charleston and Florence, whero tho proceeds of said bonds are applied solely for tho purchase, estab lishment, maintenance or increase of water-works plants, sewerage systems; and by the city of Georgetown, when tho pioceeds of said bonds are applied solely for the purchase, establishment, main tenance of water-works plant, sewer age system, gas and electric light plants, whero the entire revenue arising from tho operation of such plants or systems shall bo devoted solely and exclusively to tho mainten ance and operation of the same, ami where tho question of incurring such in debtedness is submitted to tho freehold ers and qualified voters of such munici pality, as provided in the Constitution, upon the question of other bonded in debtedness.' " lu a circular letter addressed to the pross of the State the city council of Columbia say : "This proposed amendment to tho Con stitution is of vital importance to the city of Columbia, whose population comes from almost oveiy county in the State. OrOwlng with a rapidity that is without parallel in the statistics of the State, her teeming streets and busy marts are the wonder and admiration of all. The Stale at large shares with her citi zens in the pride engendered by tho growth and prom iso of tho capital of South Carolina. There aro but two things vitally essential to the encourage ment and fostering of this wonderful growth-a sewerage system and a water works plant, which togothev, it is esti mated, will cost our munie, .?lily a half million dollars. "To raise that sum, so ne. .sary to the well-being of all the poop . we must appeal to tho intelligent vo ors of this entire State to vote solidly for this pro posed atnondmont, for the reason that Columbia is already encumbered with a dobl far in excess of the constitutional debt-limit. Hence, upon failure to cany the proposed amendment at the poll, our only recourse to preserve ami foster the magnificent onward march of our city will bo to place these systems in the hands of private parties, and thal course is condemned by every economic author ?ty, based upon the closest study ol' le sli Its. "H?moniboi thal not only does the Legislature meet here annually, bul that the Hospital for tho Insane is here, be sides the state penitentiary, as well ns other Stato institutions, all of which will be directly bondi ted by these proposed improvements." Should this proposed amendment be adopted, it would then bo left to the option of the "freeholders and qualified voters" of each of the live cities named to say for themselves, in an election held for that purpose, whether bonds should bo issued for water, sewerage and lights. The city councils of Columbia and Charleston have officially approved tho amendment, and earnestly urge tho voters of the Stale to vote in the alliinia live. Wo have not seen any statements from the eilycoiiiu ils of Hock Hill, flor ence and Georgetown, bul ii maj be pre sumed they a:e in favor of it. As a general rule we are opposed to the large increase of the bonded indebt edness of municipalities, but there may be occasional exceptions to this rule, lt seems that the presold condition of the city of Columbia furnishes ono of those exceptions, and if the freeholders anti qualified electors in thal city want to vote this heavy tax upon themselves, as they intimate, for the bonolil of tho poo plo of the whole State as well as them selves, wo suppose thc '"whole people" should not object to receiving the bless bigs, lind at the same time grant their broth ron in the Capital City tho satisfac tion of experiencing that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Another reason, and a cogent one, is tho fact thal the State institutions are located in Columbia, and their sanitary condition would be much improved by pure water and edici?n! sewerage. LAT lit. since the above was Written and put in type we have received a circu lar letter, signed by thc mayors of < oluin bia, Hock 11 ill, Georgetown, Florence and Charleston, addressed to ibo voters of the State, urging the adoption of the above amendment. H concludes: "I' n less this const it nt ional a in ci ul me nt is adopted 'the freeholders ami qualiiicd vot?is' in neither of our l ilies can have tho privilege or option of issuing bonds for ibo purpose ol' acquiring th'eso noces sities, so essential to health, life and prosperity, even if all 'the frei holders and all the qualiiicd voter.-,' were unani mous ill their desire to do so. "We therefore appeal lo sou. om iel low-cilizens, lo help ns secure,by your votes for the adoption of this amend ment the right lo dei ide for ourselves, subject lo Ihr limitations ol lin- Colisti tutu.f Sollt b Carolina, above sol hu:)!. these blessings so essential loom growth and prosperity, which om own people are playing for, and a prayer which, We feel sure, mir fellow Sou I h < liroliuiaus will not sulfer to pass unheeded." it Happened in a niuo store.
