Ex.Mayor Sweeney rapidly reviewed
the city's history during the past thirty
years at times when she had found her.
self i'll conditions like the present and tile
measures she had taken to prevent like
occurrences, md yet so far all these
measures Ind been without avail. The
last measure had been to establish the
Boards. He approved OF them; he be.
lieyed that under them m honest dollars
worth Of work had been done for every
dollar spent, something that had not been
the case before they were in existence,
The Board OF Pablo Works had done
good work, but he thought it should stop
for y time and DO no more new work and
ascertain ii the brick pavement was u per.
lect success.
Mr.. Campbell said that the streets were
now i'll such Il condition that lie believed
the Board could get along for at least two
years on its ten:ccnt Levy anil contingent
funds without any appropriations from
Council. lie felt like Mr.. Sweeney that
some, guarantee must be given citizens
that another big debt OF floating orders
would not be piled up before they would
vote for another loan. All we're opposed
to further taxation OF paying for things
when there was no money TO pay with.

At this time Young was sitting In close prox-
