Besides, the population along :lthe Lake Shore in Lake County is in- creasing so rapidly that they alone will lcontaminatethe lake so as to make it gdangerous for even the Cook County ‘ towns. The members of the local committee request the publishing of the lollowing: By David H. Jackson The population of the territory north of Chicago, at lent'as far north as Wau- kegnn. is growing very rapidly. Most of the people reside and the municipalities are located on the narrow watmhed which drains into Luke Michigan. ' E It may not be commonly known. but It, is a fact that the population reSIding in i Ein the proposed North Shore SanitaryE E District was in 1890 approximately 9000; Ein 1900 approximately 16,000; and 30.000, All of the inhnbitanta of this territory draw their water supply from the lake, and all are therefore interested in the protection of this water supplv. Survey: W madevhith {demon-trite be yond the shadow of a doubt that the water supply of every municipality on the North Shore is frequently dangerous and very seldom safe, and it seems clear that unless steps are taken at an early date to change the present methods of sewage disposal. conditions in a few years will be deplorable. in 1910, and by 1920, probably will be 50,000. It hardly seems necessary to? present any arguments to show that? some radical Itepe must be taken (0‘ l abolish the present practices in regard to ; ‘sewage disposal. The question then {arises as to how this should be done. *1 i Some of the towns have already installed :septic tanks but they have proved un- 1 ‘satisfactory in some instances. and con : spicuously so in Lake Forest. It is pro. 5 ;bany true that almost none 01 thesel tanks, atall times, take care of all the‘ 1sewage from the districts they are sup- iposed to serve. It may be that septic ‘tanks. if large enough and if properly goperated, will take care of the sewage of the district, but they are not doing it to- gday - l Now the result is, that some towns are spending their money to help condi- tions. while other towns, because their finances will not permit. are not doing anything, and there is no way at present to force them 00 do it. In other words, no city, acting alone, can solve the prob- lem; there must be cooperation of all the towns. There is no need in half the towns spending their money when the other half refuse. or are unable, to do anything. It seems that the wise thing to do is to cooperate in what seems to be the only effective way, namely: by joining together legally inra Sanitary Diun'ct.
