I Joes this justify the second prop- which comes to from the first proposition, to thej the effect that the increase o' value of property in the fire limits will increase Joe of |troperty outside the li its ? Candidly, we think not. Let look at this position. The increased valuation of property within, tho limits will Ik- due, if pres- enf at all, to the superior advantages offered and the greater convenience af- limifx. This would create a greater for property within the fin- limits. People seeking to invest real estate, it seems, would naturally seek to purchase property within th< fire limits, to get the lienefit of this perior advantage of the fire limits the property outside. * It would, consequently, just in proportion to the mnt the fire limits would increase aloe, depreciate the value of prop erty outside of the limits. This clearly demonstrable. In exact pro portion as property in one part of increased in demand other part because of advantages whi< that part may have over the other part. that proportion is the property decreased in value that advantages. Simply to illustrate, with- meaning in the least to say that the amounts we name would lie those actually resultant, suppose this office, being in the fire limits, would bring <1,000, without water-works, but would bring on the market <1,100 water-works are built, then this office Would lie increased in value <100 erection of these works. Now sup pose that this office was outside of Are limits, its material value being the advantages for the purposes Used Wing the same, Wfore works were built, it would W worth <1,000. Upon the building of works in the fire limits, therefore, maketable value at the present site would W increased because of a great- demand, to the amount of <100,00* In proportion, therefore, ope place is greater, the demand in another place having the advantage whith enhanced its price would decrease in valne, and, therefore, it is reasonable to 'suppose that the valne of the office if outside imits would drop jnst <100,00. will thus bo seen that the building of -•wotks in one part of the town, while it may enhance realty in that part, instead of enhancing in the other part, would actually decrease it. This makes it clear that our citizens owning property outside should not W deceiv ed by the fallacious -rgument that value of this prof L-rty would W creased. It seems remarkably clear that in proportion as property, formerly of the same price another’s, is increased by causes which does not operate upon tho oth er’s, in just that proportion ' other man’s decreased. Prices the world are gnaged by the mand, and as the demand from transferred to another, proportion that the demand is changed, the price of the one goes up and *’ other goes down. Do those who own property outside of the fire limits fully appreciate fact that as it now stands, when there are no water-works or other superior advantages, for resident limits over the property outside, that their property is the equal if not the superior in price of houses in the fire limits for the purpose of dwellings? This is because, other things Wing equal, people gradually gravitate for their honses/re* and not to their places of business. But in order for this W the case, all things must W equal.
