HOW TO REDUCE TAXATION.
TURN ON TIE LIGHrs-MaKE 1T THE RIGHT AND
DUTY OF TAXPAYERS To GET DETAILS OF EVERY

TURN ON TIE LIGHTs-MAKE 1T TIE RIGHT AND
Duty OF TAXPAYERS To GET DETAILS OF EVERY
CITY EXPENDITURE.
TO the Edttor OF The Tribune
SIR: In view Of the failure of the Constitutional
amendment giving taxpayers exceptional authority
over our local finances / venture to Suggest u
scheme which, when first proposed by me, was
thought well of by certain members OF the Com
mttee of Seventy.
Nv proposition is to charge the taxpayers Win
the duty of auditing, rather nquring into, every
expenditure made on behalf of the city. It shouid
be remembered that the waste and corruption we
have suffered from was not because OF money
spent for unworthy purposes. but necessary
work was made the excuse for extraVagaht
overcharge. New-York needed new Court House ;
it was the paying of fraudulent bills ana the
giving out of dishonest contracts from when
the treasury of the city suffered so severely Now
| would have the taxpayers examine every bill
and compare the amount charged with the quality
and character of the work performed. l would not
at first give the taxpayers power to stop the pay
ment of bills nor any legislative or executive au-
thority whatsoever They could recommend meas
ures of economy or expose the means used to waste
the city's funds but they should have no voice in
orr local government not possessed by other cit
liens.
At first sight this scheme might seem to be OF
little value but should expect from its adoption
several good results:
Eirst-It would force the large property-holders
to interest themselves in all the details of our city
business, for | would make this supervision OF fhe
city expenditure as obligatory upon them as militia
or jury duty is upon other citizens.
Secopd-It would be a wholesome check upon un-
wise or corrupt expenditure. for chiefs of Depart
ments would dread and if possible avoid, the eX-
posure which would follow deceptive contracts or
Overcharged work.
Thjrd-It would utilize the sefshness OF the aver
age taxpayer for the public benefit, and introduce
business influence that would IN measure correct
the l0Oseness of somewhat free and easy p0ltl-
cal milOrds.
OF course | do not ask that the AstOrs, Wander
bits and other prOpertv-holders shall themselves
examine the city bills; but that their agents shall
have the legal authority to inquire into and exam
inc the history Of every charge or lien upon the
city treasury. so as TO be able to report there
upon to the public. 1t may require
Constitutional amendment to make this
scheme work. Should il ever be earnestly pressed
Tor adoption. it will be bitterly opposed by the
politicians Of bot. parties great deal now might
be sand, but do not wish to take up your space.
