small portion Cf the taxes PAID lnto
the treasury. The city is not doing
any heavy street improvement. 1t is
constructing no sewers. In fact the
city is not doing much except to pay
salaries, and when any improvement
is to be done it is done on the i'm
provement district plan, and the peo-
pie within the district pay for the i'm
provements.
Some reforms are needed in the adj
ministration of the city's affairs.
There is no doubt about it. There is
being paid into the city treasury $4O,-
900 or more of taxes annually. OF
course that is small amount of
money with which to conduct the af-
fairs of a city as large as Pine Bluff,
and it will never be we'll managed
city SO iOIS DIS Tie ANNUAL tdA SoilCC-
tions are so small. But there is no
denying the fact that the money col
lected could be more .advantageously
expended than it is at present.
The Graphic does not desire to be
construed as ;mpugning the honorable
intention of the mayor and council
to eXpend the tax money to the best
advantage, for it has the highest re
gard for Mayor Bell and every mem
Der of the council and implicit conf
dence in their integrity, but the
Graphic believes that curtailment
OF expenses here and there could be
made and the money thus saved spent
to better advantage than at present.
The Graphic is not alone in view OF
that kind. It has heard expressions
from various persons along the lines
discussed in this article. anG The opin-
ion is general that the council could
make reforms in the expenditures that
would prove of great good TO the peo-
pie OF the city.
The necessity of a seavenger SER
vice is apparent to everybody in the
city. There is lot a decent alley il
the city because Of the garbage dump
ea into them to remain. because there
IS nobody to carry it away On the
rear premises of nearly every place
in the city garbage and filth are hid
away because the city provides no
way for its removal. To require the
individual citizen to hire the garbage
removed from his premises imposes
too great burden upon him, and the
result would be, as at present-most
of it would be dumped into the rear
premises and into the alleys.
The city cleans out the alleys once
a year, but that is not enough. What
the city needs, and what is absolutely
necessary as a sanitary measure, is
a scavenger service which would keep
the city reasonably clean.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1902-08-26

plan matters so as to have a scaven-
