but slight Improvement Public interest in
the outcome of the municipal election over
shadows everything else, and will likely
continue to do so until the election is over
Whatever the result may be IL is to be
hoped that the city will be delivered from
the jobs and the jobbers that have disgraced
it for the past several months. With a
proper man for Mayor and an honest COM
petent Board of Supervisors to guide and
protect the interests OF the city San Fran
cisco has nothing to fear as to the ultimate
end OF real estate values. Prices GER
tainly will keep pace with prosperity and
increase in population, provided real estate
is not driven out of the market by exorbi-
tant taxation schemes.
Tax Collector O'Brien is out with his
usual notification TO property-owners that
real estate taxes are due and payable at his
Office at the City Hall. Reaity-owners can
pay the whole or only one-half. as they may
elect. before the last Monday in November.
The remaining half will have to be paid by
the first Monday in April. 1898. Much trou-
bic can be saved by taxpayers sending early
for their bill.
