The communication of Mayor Prosser
to the council Is hardly worthy Of con
sideration further than in the light Of q
glossy election dodge. Its argument in
favor OF REQ ganizstion is made wholly
on the basis OF facilitating the collection
Of delinquent taxes, and In this respect i,
is the veriest rot. The mayor canno,
show city Of the third class in the en-
tire state where the list Of delinquent tax
payers is as small as in Yakima. II is
an impossibility for property owner to
pay his taxes under certain financial con-
ditionsi how can he be forced to do 20
Under laws applicable to cities of the
third class delinquent taxes are a lien
upon the property; under our present
charter they are likewise a lien. No one
wants a lien upon his property. nor will
one be permitted to exist when it can be
avoided, for no purchaser can be found
Ter property with clouded title. fire
trenchment is required, and there ia little
doubt OF this, ii can be made as well I'M
der the present charter as under any that
can be devised, and it comes with very
poor grace 10 permit the advocacy Of this
move to run along to the end Of an
ofiicial term when its proper place was at
the beginning
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1894-05-10

Our worthy mayor finds it necessary Ia
retrench but thinks there is only one
place in which it can be done, and that
the Water and Light company, which lie
q standing mark to be shot at by those
who cannot see the many and unneces-
sary leaks in other directions. Speaking
OF economy, has It occurred to the mayor
that the campaign document which he
put in at the last meeting of the council,
and which was ordered printed in the
two city papers at an expenditure Of
nearly forty dollars, might have been
dispensed with in the interest OF econ
omy? This is one Of the small leaks
which have aggregated very large sum.
The publication Of the financial reports OF
the city treasurer and city clerk were
proper, but there is no more reason Why
Col. Prosser should recite his private
views on election matters at public ex-
pense than should any other citizen.
This was an unwarranted extravaganza.

Taxpayers Attention.

To the Precinct Organization Of Yakima
County:
You will call q meeting in your
precinct to elect delegates TO the County
convention to be held at North Yakima,
Saturday, May %. 1894. at 2 p. m. for
the purpose Of organizing County Tax
payers League from which delegates will
he selected to the convention of the State
Taxpayers League, to be held at North
Yakima June 2nd 1894.
Each precinct should send as many
delegates as it did to the republican
county convention in the fall Of 1892.
All other things being equal it is de.
sireable that each Of the three parties,
democratic, republican and populist. be
equally represented 30 that in no sense
may partisan complexion be given to
this convention.

Of the same class whtre this general leeis-
lation 10 successfully enforced. In any
event. all good citizens must desire to see
the credit OF the city and its good name
maintained at all hazards, and II our
large interest account is to be met as il
should be, there must be retrenchment
In the expenditures Of the city. and 1t IL
not easy to see how such retrenchment
can be secured except by dispensing with
the light and water service, and however
much We might regret the want Of this
service, we can dispense with 1t more
easily than by reduction Of expenses In
Any other department. 1t is highly prob
able that the deficit for the coming year
will equal, II it does not exceed. the
amount paid to the light and water COM
pany, whilst the expense Of the police
service for the protection Of life and prop
erty will require to be increased. deem
it my duty TO submit these facts to you
for your consideration. and although new
city officials will shortly be elected, it is
but just that all parties interested should
he fully advised Of the financial condition
Of the city.
lam, very respectfully.

Mayor.
