Where Commercial Club Statistic.
>ians and Merchants Think Tax
Levy Should Stand. a..
Provision for an Increased Police
Force Is Asked-The "Fads'' :.
/. in the Schools. e.. ~ -

Commercial club statisticiansS believe
that a tax, levy of ,2493 on a valuation
of $121.500,000 will raise sufficient rev.
enue for next year. The figures were
yesterday afternoon submitted to the
board Of tax levy by w. G. Nye who has
sat on many a board Of tax levy, and W.
D. Washburn, Jr. Their estimates allow
for no increases for the police, and fire
departments, nor for the board of chari-
ties and corrections. The school board
Is provided with 100000 for new grade
school buildings. 70.
The, board looked at the figures with
much interest They also gave close at
tention to the spokesman of delega-
ton from the retail merchants Of the city,
who want to see the rate kept at about
rs mills w. l.. Harris in his remarks
called attention to the fact that one-half
the increase Of $4,000, 900 in real estate
valuation fell on the fourth, ward and
in the fourth ward 80 per, cent Of the in
crease would fall on the retail dealers. In
dollars and cents the increase in taxes
would amount to $12O,O0O, or about one
fifth more than last year. The valua-
lions were shown to be higher locally
than in Kansas City and st. Paul. A. E.
Zonne referred to the valuations on the
Syndicate block and Temple Court as
outrages. The taxes would amount to
25 or 30 per cent Of the gross earnings
OF the buildings. III
On top Of this come demands from city
officials for advances in salaries, addi-
tons to their forces Of employees and for
a general increase in expenditures. I.
For Larger Police Force. #,
Superintendent e. F. Waite; Of the po-
lice department put in a plea yesterday
for an Appropriation of $4,000, SO that the
police force could be Increased by the
appointment of fifty additionaI4men, The
present force, he said, was wholly made
auate properly to police the outlying Sec
tions of the city. y.
School. Directors Quinby and Hawley
and Secretary Marchbank stated the
needs Of the school board Some Of the
board of tax levy members thought the
so-called fads could be eliminated and the
board was questioned as to the necessity
for supervisors of drawing, music, etc.
The supervisors were defended by Presi-
dent Quinby, who spoke glowingly of the
splendid showing made by the pupils of
Minneapolis at the recent convention of
drawing teachers Joshua Rogers. asked:
Did any one ever hear Of a convention
Of teachers of arithmetic?" 1t was found
that the aggregate Of the supervisors sail
aries was only $1,000. The course of
study was discussed at some length. The
members of the school board expressed
a preference for a straight appropriation
Of $1,000 over bond issue of 5000, 900.
Among the items criticized in the school
estimate was the per cent Increase in
salaries, which will amount to $40, 900, or,
as Controller Rogers remarks, enough to
give the police force its fifty additional
patrOlmen
