brary will also be reduced from $46,-
600 10 S2S, 600, as last years levy pro-
vided for a deficiency in former years.
The county owes the city some $45,-
600 for the return of interest on the
issued Park bonds, which were never
issued, this, under the law, goes
into the Sinking Fund. Would it
not be a good idea to give the people
credit for this amount in the coming
levy?
The members of the Finance Board,
as reported in THE News yesterday,
have been in consultation with Mayor
Wanser regarding the tax levy. We
understand they have also consulted
the Comptroller and the law officers
of the city. We consider this a good
omen for alienation of the tax payers.
We believe that the tax rate
can be kept down to last years
figures without cripling a single
department. BY a little spec
ial exercise Of economy we be-
lieve it might even be reduced a
tri1e. If it were cut down to $20
even, it would be a boon to the tax
payers, and we think it might even
be scaled to $27. u, or $3.50. The fin
anciers must remember that the pres
emit city administration will be
Judged largely on this tax levy, which
is the first it has absolutely con-
trolled.

GONE JOHN SHERMAN.
Thus John j. Furlong Speaks Of a
Number of Broken Banks

Hon. William E. Lee. of Long Prairie.
the speaker of the last house of repre-
sentatiyes, is at the Merchants. He
says that he took time to run down to
the Capital City despite the fact that he
is banker and that these are rather
exciting times in his calling. Bankers,
he contends, should be close to business
until the present financial distress is
passed over. He was chatting with a
coterie of friends in the lobby of the
Merchants about financial problems
and specializing upon what the presi-
dents message will be, when Hon.
John j. Furlong, of Austin, came in
and joined the party.
81 see that several of the st. Paul
banks have gone Democratic" said the
speaker to Mr.. Furlong, after the ordi-
nary salutations.
"Oh, no, Mr.. Speaker" retorted the
Austin man. You mistake. They
have simply gone John Sherman"
The point was a strong one, and it
was conceded especially by the Demo-
cratic contingent.

of the sherman act better feeling will
result, pursued Mr.. Furlong. | have
the utmost confidence in the business
