from other sources, in all $32, ,00O to run our city government for one year.
 Now if we put the rate at 321a cents on an assessed valuation of $5 ,500,0 ,000 it would give us the same amount of money as 69 cents on $2,620,000.
 The proposilrn of doubling the as- sessment roll would be an advantage in several ways.
 First, it would be the means of ad- vertising the city of Phoenix as me- tropolitan, fast growing town.
 Second, it would enable us to issue bonds to the extent of $150,000 for street, sewer, fire department and other needed improvements.
 Third, by issuing 20 or 30 year bonds future generations would pay the debt for improvements, which the present generation would enjoy.
 Fourth. $150, ,000 expended within our city's borders at the present time, or in the next two years, means labor for all our idle men, and thousands of dollars distributed among our merchants.
 Fifth, there is nc side of the proposi- tion but what is popular and when the taxpayer is not injured thereby we should make grand effort to establish the result sought for. CITIZEN.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

To the Editor of THE REPUBLICAN:
 The time has arrived when we should commence doing something for our clty's good, and considering how best to do it.
 A better feeling prevails here than in California towns of this size, and mo- ney In many avenues of trade is easier but they are outdoing us two to one in the line of extended municipal inn provements.
 Pomona is now doing over $50, ,0OO in street paving, and it's population does not exceed 5000 inhabitants. Santa Ana, town of about the same habita- tion, has just completed street i'm prove. ments to the amount of $40,000, and neither of these places are as we'll blessed with resources as Phoenix. They have all the modern improvements, such as first class sewer system, water system, and a semi paid fire depart ment, electric fire alarm system, and we should have the same, and can if our city council will forward the move. ment, and this is the way it can be done.
 The bonded indebtedness of this city nb pACoCht ID Pfo,OOO hAu lto CuTT0uG floating indebtedness is about $26, ,OOO, making $66,000. Under the Harrison act an indebtedness of $105, ,O0O may be created, being per cent of the present assessed valuation of the assessment roll of 1894 and 1895, viz., $2,62O,O ,OOO. The Churchill addition will this year increase the roll to about $3,O0O, 900 which under the Harrison act would admit of the city contracting an in- debtedness of $12O.OO0. which would allow us to issue bonds to the extent of $54,000 Now let us raise the assess ment roll to $5, 800, ,OOO which would be admissible and reduce the rate of tax ation one half For example, the rate last year was 69 cents on the hundred dol lars with roll valued as $2, ,620 ,000 giv- ing $IS,O7S of which 19 cents or $4, ,97S goes to pay interest on the present bonded indebtedness, leaving SIS, LOO with about S14,000 in license and $5, ,000

it's real work is in the future under 8 platform that is yet to be made that no one can certainly forecast. The league would far better make no declaration on the subject than stumble into the mis- take of getting on the anti-silver side of the contest.
 The manly, honest winning thing would be to declare that it is the natural mission of the Repub blican party to advocate the principle of free coinage, as inseparably allied with the principle of protection, and advise the national nominating convention to lay the foundations for victory deep and and sure by placing the party sauarely in the forefront of the battle for the in. terests and rights of the people in this great contest.
Arizona republican., 1895-06-07
DON'T DODGE THE ISSUE.

it is probable that the Repu blican hague convention in Cleveland on the 18th will dodge the financial issue.
 Prominent league men have given it out that it is not the business of the organization to make platforms. That is true. but it is going to be very diff Gcult for the organization to avoid some kind of declaration of principles. If t do no more than announce adhesion Go Rep blican doctrine, the friends of silver will demand 8 definition of what that implies in connection with the Gnancial issue.
 The convention can scarcely declare It's support of the platform of 1892, for
Arizona republican., 1895-06-07
TIME FOR ACTION.

We read that the Democratic goldites of Nebraska have organized league for the purpose of distri ibuting anti silver literature among the people. Thus the movement to throttle the sill yer cause spreads. New York and Chi eago each has an organization that is flooding the country with goldite litera- ture, and other similar agencies of the nonometallists are springing up every where.
 If the free coinage movement is to be carried through to success the work of the opposition must be met and coun- teracted. There will be plenty of work for the organization recently formed in Salt Lake and it will have need for all the money which the state branches can raise.
 It is most unfortunate that in any western state there should be any per sons who, for any reason, do not desire to have the silver propaganda spread in the manner that is now absolutely ne- cessary to save the cause from rout and annihilation, but THE REPUBLICAN has full confidence that the masses of the people, refusing to be led into the woods, will respond nobly when the state committees get to work and make known what is needed. It would be creditable to have large fund ready for immediate use the moment call is made.
 THE REPUBLICAN has enlisted for the campaign and will soon scatter broad east over the territory it's weekly issue full of ringing silver doctrine, but in ether lines and in other directions funds may be needed and the friends of silver should be prepared to meet their ene- mics with their own weapons.

QUITE a number of letters concerning the Shylock money lenders of Phoenix have been received and if victims would communicate more freely vigorous ef- fort could be made to put an end to this abuse. Names will be withheld from publication and THE REPUBLICAN will protect all victims who furnish evidence from unnecessary publicity in connection with their financial affairs.
