II
The Council Committee on Finance held
a regular session last night and disposed
of a good deal of business, but most OF
II was Of a routine nature. such as was
referred by the two branches at thcir
regular March meetings. The question
OF providing new armory forsthe Hlcl'-
mond Light Infantry Blues was sche-
iduled for consideration, but was ho..
called for the reason that
whom the matter was referred We're un-
ayoidnbly absent. The Blues are aslsins
for an armory, the total cost OF when
is to reach something like $4,000 and the
s,lb- committee is divided with reference
10 tho subject. The object Is considered
by all the members as a most worthy
one, and the soldiers will undoubtedly se
provided for, though they may not GET.
I'LL they ask. Major y. u Chentwood was
present last, night to advocate the
claims OF the battalion, but when lie
learned OF the absence of members Of
tho subcommittee, no did not Wppear.
Major Chcntwood is naturally deeply
interested In the subject and no and,
those associated with him seem to have
the sympathlcs OF the community in.
their struggles. li.fs2 a II Is
But Few Changes.
The committee has finally disposed o
the ardous and intricate duty OF laying
license taxes for tho current year, and
upon good authority 1t is learned that
there were but few changes made in the
schedule which prevailed nIlat5.
i '..There were fewer complaints said
Chairman James II. Wood last night
".than II have ever known. but will add
that tho complaints made We're far more
affective than usual.

THAT is probably true replied the

Chairman Wood is responsible for the
statement that the net amount OF revenue
derived by the city from license taxes is
now what It was for tho year
1905. The Finance Committed has becnS
most fortunate with It's work this year.
The budget which was practically made
