The meeting OF both branches OF the
city council was an event of more than
ordinary Importance TO the taxpayers
OF this city, as the result of the discus
sions in both bod. es was The passage in
concurrence of Joint resolution re-
ducing the tax rate from $1.65 TO SLIGO.
This action, taken at time when the
committee on finance says that there
is not enough money in the city treas
ury to pay running expenses, appears
on the face OF It. to be most remark
able piece OF legislation. but accord
ing to gentlemen who have given the
matter great deal OF careful study.
the city will have about $4,000 more
available for general expenses than III
has had before.
This somewhat paradoxical condition
Of affairs was brought about by reso-
lution introduced in the board or al
dermen by Alderman Reynolds, who
showed that a tax of $1.65 would leave
for general expenses S1.942, 372.1, which
is more than the one per cent. allowed
under the Law, and as there are always
a large umter OF people who complain
of excessive valuation the members or
the city council were afraid they might
raise the point OF law 10 the disad-
tion passed yesterday. the tax for gen.
eral expenses is six cents higher than
II was q year ago and that VIII give
the next finance committee nearly SIlO.-
600 more than the present commit
tee had when the appropriation bill
was made up, assuming, 90 course, that
the valuation is the same. In addition
to this there will be an excess of nearly
500, 900 from the tax assessed for inter-
est and sinking funds and state tax.
This condition was brought about by
the retirement OF some OF the water
bonds which were five and six per
cent. bonds, and the refunding OF some
on a three per cent. basis
