A THOUSAND DOLLARS THROWN
AWAY.

Mr.. w. w. Baker, of Plainview,
Nes., writes : MY wife had lung
trouble tor over fifteen years We
tried a number of doctors aud spent
over a thousand dollars without any
relief. She was very low and I lost
all hope, when q friend suggested
trying Foley's Honey aud Tar, which
I did ; and thanks be 10 this great
remedy, it saved her life. She is
stronger and enjoys better health
than she has ever known in ten
years We shall never be without

RIGHT TO EMPLOY ALIENS
is UNDER INVESTIGATION
Civil Service Commission Asks City
Attorney to Explain Law on
Subject

The local civil service commission is
now investigating charges made by
certain discharged employees of the wa
ter department regarding the discharge
Of American citizens and employment
of aliens by that department.
The question affects the civil service
department only in that they have per-
mitted the registration of laborers who
were not citizens and these have been
employed by the water department.
At yesterdays meeting of the board
the question was discussed and 1t was
decided to ask the city attorney for
ruling as to the legality of allowing
the registration of non-citizens. If
there is no law on the subject, the civil
service department can do nothing.
However, If there is a law prohibiting
such registration, the names of all non
citizens will be scratched from the
force of the water department and their
places filled with Americans

COUNCIL CUTS DEEP
TO FIT CITY'S PURSE
RATE FOR YEAR TO BE LESS THAN
Finance Committee Uses Pruning Shears and Occasionally
Resorts to Ax-Street Fire and Police Budgets
Greatly Reduced

partments exceeded s3,2OO,OOO. To cut
The members of the committee en-
deavored to do the cutting so that no
one department would be wronged
In several instances the pruning
shears were discarded for the ak. The
heaviest cut occurred in the item of
s25O,00 which had been put aside for
general and incidental expenses which
was entirely stricken out and the city
will have to trust to finding some
money for incidental and general ex-
penses.
The next heaviest cut will probably
occur in the street department ap-
preparation. Heavy cuts will also be
made in the park department, police
and fire departments. 1t is thought that
it will not be necessary to cut salaries
in any branch of the city's service, but
it is declared that neither salaries nor
wages will be raised one penny during
the coming year.
The cut in the fire department means
that no new fire houses can be built,
while the reduction in the police depart
ment estimate will probably preclude
any increase in the force.
The cut in the park department esti-
mate is heavy, and on this account no
new Fairgrounds or additions to the
parks can be made during the coming
year.
Practically every department esti-
mate was cut to some extent except
that of the city tax and license COL
lector. This is the department the city
depends upon to get in the revenue,
and it will not be hampered in any
way. The small departments were
not clipped much, as the cut had to be
made on the big appropriations.
The budgets have been trimmed down
until they fit nicely into the city's
pocketbook, but money promises to be
scarce during the year and no frills
will be allowed by councilmen.

LAB0RER Is KILLED BY
FALLING WATER PIPE
c. F. Kelsey Is Struck by Heavy
Main When Pulley
Breaks

c. F. Kelsey, employed by the city
water department at the headgate in
the river bed near Burbank, was killed
by a falling iron pipe yesterday morn
ing.
Kelsey was employed on the water
system for several months as carpen-
ter and had been living in a tent In
the bed of the river mead his work.
Yesterday morning he was working
beneath a derrick used for hosting iron
pipes when the rope on the pulley broke
and heavy pipe fell, striking Kelsey
on the head.
Heisey's skull was fractured and he
died two hours later. The body was
sent to Bresee Brothers undertaking
establishment.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-08-23

The tax rate for the coming year will
be less than S1.25 on every $10O worth
Of taxable property, according to in
formation obtained last night. This
means a reduction Of more than fifteen
cents from the rate of $1.4O which was
collected last year.
The finance committee of the council
finished its work of making up the
budgets for the various departments
and deciding upon the tax rate, late
yesterday afternoon. This session of
the committee probably faced harder
problem than such a committee of the
Los Angeles council has had to face
in the history of the city.
Even If the old rate had been col
lected the city still would be over a
million dollars short on general ex-
penses, according to the estimates
turned in to the council by the heads
of the departments.
But this year it was found that the
rate of $1.40 per $100 could not be col
lected legally, so the reduction in the
rate became an absolute necessity, max
ing the city's income still smaller.
Question in Finance
With the city growing every day and
the running expenses increasing ac-
cordingly, the question of how to make
both ends meet on a lower tax rate
was a puzzle hard to solve. For several
weeks the members of the finance COM
mittee have been at work on the prob
lem, and believe they have found the
solution. The council will meet this
morning at 10 o'clock to receive the
report of the committee and make the
appropriations to the various depart
ments.
The law allows a levy of 81 per $100
for general expenses. This will bring
in an income to the city of about
$1,570,O00. In addition to this, other
sources bring in about 100000, making
a total of nearly $2,000.00o. The esti-
mates made by the heads of the de-
