On motion of Ald. Frith the notice was received and filed. Regular Session, July 18, 1912 this matter has not been decided un- der the statutes of our state, but the supreme court of the state of Illinois has held expressly that a special as- sessment under these circumstances is valid and that the benefits conferred are sufficient even though the prop- erty owner has not the extra advan- tage of water connection with the city mains. The court there holds that the sewer may be used nevertheless for different sanitary purposes and it may be made available for all purposes by private plumbing construction. It is likely that if this question reaches our supreme court they would be apt to reason along this line and sustain the assessment where the im- provement had been ordered in good faith and in- the exercise of good judg ment on the part of the City Council.
