some REASONS WHY BISMARCK IS Being FINANCIALLY HANDICAPPED
Over Ten Thousand Dollars Street Funds Spent the Past Two Years With Practically Nothing Permanent
Value Show for n-ekes Expenditure City Funds Appropriations bhuay OGdaW

: The inability of the mayor and city
council to arrive at a basis upon
which an appropriation ordinance for
the fiscal year could be built has
caused considerable comment and the
situation has been pretty well
sthreshed over by the taxpayers. as.@
4 The Tribune has no desire to find
fault with the management of city af-
fairs or with the aldermen, collective
ly or singly, but in mentioning some
of the weaknesses of the present sys-
tenn of city administration it only
voices the current sentiment Of the
people generally. ,".
That carelessness and mismanage.
ment and extravaganza has been the
rule for the past three or four years
seems past. denying when the facts
are looked into. $3.50.
An instance of this is the waste that
has. gone on annually upon the city
streets. It seems incredible, but it is
true, that according to the records, in
one way and another there has been
spent from the city street fund the
past two years the sum of $10,500 in
round figures.
In the opinion of most people there
is little to show for it.
In the absence Of established grades
the work on the streets has been q
series of patch work which the
spring rains have largely ruined, Nc
general plan seems to have beer
thought out, and instead of contract
work the labor has been done by the
day.. the most expensive and incom
petent way of doing municipal work
known. 1t is said contractors have
been refused a chance to bid on the
city work and given to understand
they were not in it.
A great, deal Of excavating worl
has been done by building contractors
who under ordinary circumstance
should be glad to be allowed to place
the dirt on the streets near at hand
for nothing. But instead of this the!
have been paid ten cents a load TO,

SUPREME COURT QUITS
GRAND FORKS TERM WAS ADJ
JoURNED FRIDAY--WARD coUN-
TY COMMISSIONERS CASE
HEARD.

The September term of the supreme
court at Grand Forks was adjourned
at noon Friday, the only case argued
that day being that of John Vallelly and
B. F. Brockhoff against the Park COM
mission of Grand Forks, an action
started for. the purpose Of testing the
validity of the park law enacted by
the last legislature
The most important case argued at
this session of the court was that of
the State of North Dakota, respond
ent, against S. IS. Richardson and L.
R. Carroll, appellants, which was SUBJ
mitted before adjournment Thursday
afternoon.
The appellants in this action were
members of the board of county COM
missioners of Ward county, and on
Eec. % last, County Auditor J. W.
Fabrick, filed an accusation against
them in the district court, setting
forth twenty-eight different charges of
misconduct, and prayed that they be
removed from Office On trial of the
case before Judge E. B. Goss, all but
three Of the charges were dropped
during the progress of the hearing,
and on these the two men were found
guilty, Judge Goss making an order
removing them from office.
One of the charges on which the two
men were convicted was that of IL
legal bills for a trip to Minneapolis
to confer with officials of the 500
Railway Co. These commissioners
charged the county 81 a day during
the time they were absent and mile
age at the rate of 5 cents per mile.
Another article Of the accusation
sets forth the charging of illegal fees
for services rendered the county, and
covered about fifty bills. The COM
missioners themselves contended that
they were entitled to pay per diem
from the time they started from their
homes until they returned. and that
in cases where committee work and
travelling took up the most Of the
night that they were entitled to an
additional day. n i. h I. - a. M 4. I
The other charge is that the two
commissioners unlaWfully and corrupt
" approved and allowed a claim Of

amounting to 1889 80. This charge
was the most sensational Of the three.
and the evidence produced showed
that after the bill had been allowed
that II was found that an overcharge
had been made and another bill was
submitted to the publishing company,

stopped, this fund will become an
even greater breeding place of high
taxes than it is now.
Another evil practice that has long
been known to exist but has not been
publicly aired until brought up in the
council meeting Thursday evening by
Alderman Slattery, is that of the
indiscriminate purchase of goods in
the name of the city by aldermen
without sanction of the council and
without the order Of the purchasing
committee. This has become such an
evil that it, and the large expenditures
on the streets, are the principal cause
of the large floating debt which now
Expresses the council.
An instance of this practice is
shown in the recent purchase of an
article that cost the city nearly $500.
This article was bought of travelling
salesman, the deal being made on the
street corner, and nothing was
officially known of the matter until
the bill was presented at council
meeting to the great establishment Of
most of the aldermen. 1t is not to be
denied that the article purchased is a
good one, and that it has given gen.
eral satisfaction, but the fact remains
that it's purchase was unauthorized by
the council and that at the time it was
purchased there were no funds in the
treasury to meet the bill. The whole
transaction was contrary to law and
good government.
Today the city owes hundreds of
dollars to parties who in good faith
worked for the city or furnished
goods. When the expense was incurred
the members of the council undoubtedly
knew there would be no money in the
treasury for months to come to pay
these people. AS consequence the
credit of the city has been injured, and
instances are known where contrac,
tors have refused to fulfill their con
tracts because of the uncertainty OF
being paid within reasonable time
For years the aldermen have been
aware of the debt that was piling uI
on water account and they have been
urged to provide annually for the pay
ment of this old debt but it was side
. tracked until it has risen up at this
, time to add greatly to the difficulties
, of the situation. The water company
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1906-09-22

that large part of the dirt thus de-
posted haphazard on the streets will
have to be removed by the city if the
time ever comes when an intelligent
system of street work is inaugurated
as result of grades being established.
Hundreds of dollars have been paid
contractors for the dirt placed on the
streets, which has enabled them ut is
said, to bid ten cents a yard lower for
excavating work than those who have
not had this privilege. At any rate
it is notorious that there is that
difference in price for excavating be-
tween the contractor who can use
the streets for a dumping ground at
ten cents per load and the one who is
not allowed to put dirt on the streets
at all. q
The appropriation for street work
in 1904 was s4,35O, including a de-
felt from the previous year. The ap-
preparation of last year carried de-
felt in this fund of $61S and the levy
was So, 500. There is a deficit this
year of over $4,000 in the street fund,
which the council is expected to make
good, as it has done somewhat regu-
larry for several years back.
In this connection attention is
called to the law prohibiting members
OF the city council from exceeding ap.
preparations. Section 2754 of the
Political code says:
= Neither the city council, nor
any department or officer Of the
corporation, shall add to the
corporation expenditures in any
one year, anything over and above
the amount provided for in the
| annual appropriation bill Of that
year; and no expendi-
ture for an improvement to be
! paid for out of the general fund
of the corporation shall exceed in
any one year the amount provided
for such Improvement in the an
nual appropriation bill.
This provision has habitually beer
observed in the breech and as a re
suit each annual meeting had beer
Fconfronted with large deficit in thu
street fund to be provided for in the
current budget. It is noted, also, tina
this deficit grows in size from yea
to year, and it is evident that if thu
law is not observed and the practice
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1906-09-22

has not paid its city taxes, probably
being actuated, as would an individu-
al, by the thought that when the city
made good it would do likewise. Thus
these dilatory tactics not only EN-
barrass the. city, but are keeping the
corporation out of its revenues. s%
Undoubtedly a way will be found
around the present difficulties in reach
ing an agreement On an aappropria-
ton ordinance and that in due slime
one will be, passed. If this is ac->
complished it is sincerely to be hoped
that if provision is made for the street
fund that not one dollar of the money
will be expended until the city en-
gineer has presented, and the council
| adopted, a scheme for establishing
street, grades throughout the city and
general and comprehensive plan for
street improvement. When this is
accomplished, it is the concensus of
be done by contract, supervised by the
city engineer, a man qualified to
handle this class of work Then the
city will have something to show for
its money and the work will not have
to be done over and over again, as has
been the history of street improve
ment SO far.
True economy lies in not attempt
ing too much in any one year. The
needs Of each ward are great and
past failures have resulted from the
effort made to cover these needs all
at once. This cannot be done on the
limited means at hand, but if a num-
Der of blocks were let out on contract
each year, and the work done as it
should be, the entire city would, in a
comparatively short time, be provided
with streets on which very small an
nual repairs would be needed.
We have had all the experience in
patchwork that reason seemingly de-
; mands. 1t has been a dismal failure
and the taxpayers can now go down in
their pocket to pay for it. Common
| sense demands that methods persued
, in progressive cities be now tried and
/ it is believed there is not an
: alderman in the city council who, in
: the bottom of his heart, will not ad-
; nit the justice of the request. nor the
) truth of the statements made in this
7 article.

DISCRIMINATING LADIES,

Its Distinctiveness,

The ladies who have used Newbro'a
Herpicide speak Of it in the highest
terms, for it's quick effect in cleansing
the scalp Of dandruff and also for its ex-
cellence as q general addressing. It
makes the scalp feel fresh and it allays
that itching which dandruff will cause.
Newbros Herpicide effectively cures
dandruF, as it destroys the germ that
causes it. The same germ causes hair to
fall out, and later badness; in killing it,
Herpicide stops falling hair and prevents
badness It is also an ideal hair Dress
