THE MOST THRILLING and fimsy |
charge yet made against the Democrats
in the City Council is that they did not
assess our citizens for money enough to
run the city for Is months instead Of |
one year. The law directs that the est-
mates shall be for one year, and the
money raised by tax upon such esti-
mates shall be for one year. Mr.. Guth-
rie, the chairman OF the Finance Gem
mittee, has very properly defended his
committee and the Council against the
ignorant fault finders and it might
seem unnecessary for the GAZETTE to
E say anything further; and it proposes only
TO give its readers the section of the
ordinance in which the Council is charged
with the duty Of raising revenue, that
thsy may see how carefully the law has
been pursued. 1t Is as follows:
SEC. 46. The City Council shall,
esrly in November in each year, cause
TO be prepared and laid before them esti-
mates of the probable revenue and ex-
penses of the city for the ensuing year,
and an ordinance 81 all be passed at the
ilrst stated meeting in January OF each
year, making appropriations for the ex-
penses of that year, based as nearly as
msy be upon the estimates made in
November previous; and the appropria-
tions shall be specified and arranged un-
dor the heads, or items. designated in
the said estimates. Unless some extra
ordinary occasion, not anticipated at the
passage Of the aforesaid ordinance,
shall require further appropriations, the
expenditures Of the year under any head
or item of appropriation shall not ex
coed that item of appropriation and
further provision be required, in addition
to the appropriation to be made IL
January Is aforesaid, the extraordinary
occasion, or necessity for the same, shal
be set forth in the ordinance making TIN
additional appropriation, and such ordi
nance shall not pass by less than the vot
Of two-thirds of all the members o
Council, q record of which vote shall b.
made upon the journal.
The law seems to be very clear on tn
subject, and the Council have done ex
actly right in following it to the letter
II it was Mr.. Guthrie's, or the commit
tess advise to raise no more money b
taxation than would run the city on
vaar, we must accord them credit therefor
We can see no economy in taxing ou
citizens for money to lay idle for whol
year before 1t is wanted. On the COZ
trary it seems much better to rails
enough for one year, and borrow
necessary few thousand dollars to carr
the city for 90 days from April to Jul!
Ths money can be paid back by I'll
July tax receipts and thus the dangerou
policy of keeping such large sums
money on hand is to some extent avoi'
Cd. During the past year especially
was the duty Of the City Council
mske the tax upon the people as light I
posssble, and they have done this, ar
for doing this they have been censure

A kind OF farming known as " Ia petite

Is in operation in Lincolnshire. England.
A track of land containing 10000 acres. is
cut up into ribbons, some Of them q mile in
length and but five or six yards in width,
others from ten TO twenty yards wide. with
crops of different kinds growing side bv side
without any fence or gutter or even a grass
boundary between them. Many Of the
owners Of this land have each but 4 rood, a
half acre, three roods or an acre, which they
cultivate with much care. Other, have
larger portions; and some rent the land,
paying at the rate OF SIS. $50. SIS an acre
annually for it, and where it is wei. worked
they make fair profits beyond the rent.
The land is alluvial and well MANFRED 1t
is consequently very fertile and, in some
cases, will yield forty-two bushels Of wheat

and onions is ten tons to the acre, but
sometimes much larger. Men az small,

the ears were better than other portions.
We selected twenty strings of two dozen
