the diminuti9n of taxes at the next assessment. This will be in the line of progression, and is in our judgment greatly to be desired. The water works are now q source of revenue. and besides saving f75 per month, the city can for feas- onable outlay, make the Electric Lighting pianta source of revenue. The two plants should, if properly extended Hg n something like $3ooo aes =aHam profit. All praise to Mayor fipton for h.s ef- forts to make taxes less and d he same time increase the comforts and conwenieaees.

Leaving the saloon license out of the ques- tion, and expressing no opinion as to that license, 1t will be seen that the water works. which is owned and operated by that town pays Il revenue 10 the town. Now, if a small town like Forrest City can own its water-works and run them without expense to the town, why is it that Monticello cannot do tie same thing; IL can dc t, and should.
