The City Council showed an aggres
slye spirit last night in the right di.
rection. The resolution unanimously
PASSED protesting against the increase
of the police force was not so much
because the increase was not needed
as IL would entail upon the city very
high rate OF taxation at a time whom
the taxpayers were poorly prepared
TO meet it. As it is the tax rate had
been settled before the increase of the
force had been agreed upon aud as
consequence there will! be no money
in the treasury to meet the increased
expenses, some $4,000
The police commission, the Street
and Sewer Commission and tho Flee
tiUhs Commissions are very expensive
luSares TO the city, aud Mr.. Magee,s
denunelatlou of all or them in Council
last night was in place and we'll de-
served. Even honest James Murray
joined in the general protest against
commission eXtrayagances.
Also TO be commended Is the reso-
luton adopted by City Council endor-
sing the building of Fourth street

protesting against he proceeding 10
fora the Court OF Ghancery to destroy
tile same. The actions of the City
