The Pulaski Patriot denies upon the
authority Of State Senator Hogan himself,
that the senator stated before the city coun
Gil of Mound City that be had paid GER
tain Southern Illinois member Of the lower
house OF the Legislature 5000 to support and
gain support for the Mound City approprl-
alton bill The charge that be HAD made

The following comparative statement
Of tax levees made in the city for municipal
purposes this year and last makes very
favorable showing and will therefore be
read with interest by taxpayers generally:
The total amount appropriated this year is
s64,893s8 It's estimated that $24, ,S936S
Of this amount will be derived from fines,
licenses, streettaxes, special assessments, etc,
etc, so that only 100000 will have to be

total amount appropriated for all purposes
was S76,G331S, or upwards of ll,OOO
more than this year. The amount derived
from the various sources outside OF
the levee, was s3G,633.1s, and the
leyee was the same as this year, 100000
OF this latter sum only sl2,040. 80 had been
collected on the goth Of May last and from
the other sources mentioned there had been
collected only $lT2l7.57, making in all
only S20,257 90 that had been collected OF
the $40, ,G33lS appropriated in 1889. The
remaining $47,375.22 still due the city on
the Both Of May has since then been con-
siderably reduced by payments from the
collector to the city treasurer, and is being
steadily reduced--as the collectors are
gs,heringi in the money due the city.

made manifest when the work of atonn;no
