MUNICIPAL PROGRESS.

Tonight will probably witness the last
meeting OF the old city council. On Tues
day next the new officials will be sworn in,
and Seattle will take its place among the
FIRST cities in the United States as munich

corporate government equal in theory to
the most approved OF modern civic organ.
izations. bu, only practical application can
determine its efficacy in insuring economy
and purity. The separation OF the execu-
tive from the legislative department ia a
necessity OF the city's growth, but the
adoption of the dual council is IN the ma.
ture of an experiment. 1t Is not as sue
cessful in ST. Louis as it promised to be,
but there is difference in detail, which
experience suggested in the Seattle char
ter, that may afford the protection intended.
One certain result will be less legislation.
because the process of statute-makine Ia
parposeiy designed to be more circumlo-
cutory, and that in itself is a great adyan-
tage over the practice of the discarded
charter.
The new members of the city council
nave nao little opportunity of displaying
their qualifications for the work for which
they have been chosen, but at the meeting
they had to informally consider their du.
ties and responsibilities they displayed a
husiness-like method and a sense of the
gravity of their task which holds ont
promise OF the best results when they enter
upon the discharge OF their trust.

The State Legislature will be called upon
to perform one task that will commend it.
self to taxpayers. It is quite unnecessary
to retain the rate of taxation ct mills. The
last Legislature based its calculations upon
. state property valuation of $l50, zoo. 900;
but the State Board Of Equalization placed
il at SOL. 4l8. i36. This affords $500. 900 rev.
enue. more than sufficient to meet all
claims upon the treasury. This year the
expenses have been exceptionally heavy,
aud their decrease next year together with
the increase in valuations warrants the
Legislature in reducing the taxes to ~
MILLS ct least.
Even then the rate will compare very
favorabiy with that of other states; and
the future will see further reduction.
The greater the wealth the lower the rate
Of taxation is rule in the states, excep-
lions being created only and arbitrarily by
corruption or extravaganza. For conven-
ience Of comparison let the percentage be
IS for Washington, an equivalent of ~
mills, then Oregon's rate is 81, California's
1872, Nevada's 80, Colorado's 29.3, North
Dakota's %. South Dakota's 20 and Mon
tana's 20.
The older Eastern States vary very much,
Massachusetts, is IS high as 1913. New
Hampshire as low rs OLGA. New York is
only 28.2, . fair average for state with SO
many eleemosynary institutions to sup
port Pennsylvania is 30, and Connecticut
as low as 1875. The Central States make a
favorable showing, Indiana rating at IL.
Iowa at rs. Michigan l5.4, Minnesota 10.
Wisconsin 23.7.
The Southern States are all rated very
high, Louisiana's proportion being placed
at so, South Carolina SIS, Arkansas so,
Kentucky AIS. Virginia 40, West Virginia
IS and Mississippi IS.
The rate of taxation seems to be some.
thing like the rate of interest. 1t is ALWAYS
well to have it low, but better to have it at
that medium which steers between oppres-
siveness and stagnatlon. Live, growing.
progressive states are compelled to spend
money, but the necessities will create
themselves without any stimulation from
legislators over-anxious to endow localities
with state institutions
