IT seems that there is to be no cutting
down of expenses and that it will cost
as much to run the city this year as be-
fore. The present council was elected
on platform pledged to economy, and
upon its organization 1t formulated a
table scaling down the expenses to the
amount of over 100000. FIRST the
mayor and aldermen voted 10 per cent
cut on their own salaries which was
followed by the same cut in the fire and
police departments. This raised a
mighty howl. Then it was decided to
also cut of 42 electric lights This
raised mightier howl from some peo-
Pile in the dark districts, and the few
aldermen who had not favored a re-
duction Of salaries. or for that matter
reduction in anything from the start,
got in their work and the result of it
was that at the last meeting Of the
council all reductions in salaries were
declared off and the lights were ordered
in. 1t all looks very much like a
sham on the part of the council or else
the aldermen lacked the backbone to
stick up for economy when the squeal
commenced. The taxpayers are asking
good many questions.

Those Who are the Most Benefited
Should Bear the Heaviest Burden.
When the city council discusses the
question next Monday evening of
widening the river in order to prevent
another overflow, it should go slow in
arriving at the manner and means to be
employed. AS matter of course
there are only two things to do to avoid
another drowning out-either widen
and deepen the river and make higher
levees or move up on the mesa. There
is too much opposition to the latter
plan to make it feasible, as property
owners on the bottoms would raise
serious objection, and those merchants
who would move up would fear that
their places on the flats would be filled
by others who might take away share
Of their patronage.
1t is more than likely that the propo-
sition to widen the Arkansas will be
popular. In such an event, how about
raising the necessary amount, say from
$3.50, 900 to $35OOOO2 The indebted
ness Of the city is now almost half
million dollars, and the taxes are heavy;
they should not be increased. nor
should the already large debt be made
any larger. 1t is bad enough to have
burden on the people without adj
vertising it to any great extent to the
world.
The INDICATOR would suggest there
fore, that an assessment be levied against
each lot in the city according to value,
with the exception of the lots in the
district subject to being submerged
which should be taxed much higher in
proportion and these according to
location and value among themselves.
For instance real estate on north and
south Union avenues for the full lengths
thereof, and Main street and Santa Fe
avenue from the Santa Fe railroad
tracks as high up as Fourth street,
together with all intersccting streets
for block each way should be made
to bear the pricipal burden. Victoria
and Grand avenues and south Santa Fe
avenue. Main and Mechanic street
should also bear fair proportion.
These streets and avenues are the ones
most benefited and most valuable and
the burden should fall principally
there. None of the real estate of tho
city should be exempt, but the more
the benefit the greater the assessment.
II it were deemed unfair to let the
merchants and others doing business
in the city of without aiding, each
could be taxed license fee, but let it
be light. Most of them have suffered
enough already by the flood.
The council would do we'll to con-
slider this plan along with, the report of
the finance and engineer committee

THE SECOND FLOOD.
Pueblo Again Overlooked. High Water
but Little Damage,

Pueblo's second flood came last Tues.
day night, less than week after the
deluge of Memorial night 1t came at
$3.50 a. m. but people had warning,
and having a vivid recollection of the
first disaster, those who had moved
back to the flats again returned to the
high land, and merchants put most of
their goods on benches and shelves out
of reach.
The water came within eight inches
of being as high rs before, but the
same damage was not done because it
was not to be done. Another flood is
predicted for the 1sinst and already
discouraged merchants are seriously
alarmed.
Some have abandoned their base.

McCord- -Bragdon Co. and A. G. Daniels

will follow suit.
The proposed site of the federal
building was under water and another
attempt will be made to have the loca-
tion changed. The high water reach
ed from the vaiduct to 9th street, and
IN the vicinity of the Central block was
four feet deep. All the Easements
which had been pumped out were of
course again filed. The Fountain did
considerable damage by washing out

The latter part of the week | was
talking to a prominent Pueblo whole
sale merchant and all-around politician.
He asked me not to mention his name,
as he did not want to get tangled up.
Referring TO the approaching judicial
convention, he said that there were
two strong factions in the republican
party in Pueblo. and that one was
headed by Belts and Abby and the
other by the Gibson crowd. Both of
these factions will make an attempt to
organize the convention. In the event
of the Belts crowd securing control,
the nominees for judge and district
attorney will both be Pueblo
men. In case the Gibson combine
secures the top hand, Pueblo will be
given the judgeship and otero county
