TIE CITY TAX LEVY.

For n1l purposes save only TO pay tbs
$4,000 interest on the million dollar
water and sewer bonds issued by the
Morris administration, the city tax levy
this year is exactly the Same ns last
year.
In spite of the dishonest and parti-
san outcries, charging waste and ex-
| travagance, there is absolutely no in
crease of the tax levy for my or all
municipal purposes. Consequently, the
| outcry that the people were 10 be
burdenod with heavy taxes on account
of American wastefulness is whining
fraud. There is no wastefulncss, and
no added taxation from anything that
tho American party has done.

and sewer bonds, the million dollar is.
suo Of the Morris administration
Not one cont, not ono mill, of taxa
tion has been added by the American
city administration.
On the contrary, tho American muni-

revenue provides for interest and the
sinking fund that tho law requires, on
bonds formerly issued. This sinking
fund requirement the Morris admins

makes no increase Of city taxes, and it

STILL THE DOCTRINE.

Mormon church missionary and Nor
mon church journalistic circles are con
sIderably agitated because of the re-
fusal by the Mayor Of Yonkers, New
York. TO permit elders Of the dominant
church IN Utah 10 circulate tracts or
preach on the streets of that city. Tho
assumption by the church cult is that
these men were not proposing TO preach
polygamy and that their tracts did not
Teach the doctrine; therefore they were
strictly within their rights and il was
an act of gross tyranny for the Mayor
to decline their oyertures for the cs-
Enlistment of their propaganda
Tins IS the usual reckless evasion by
the church of the facts and the respon-
slblhhes. No matter what these mis-
slonaries propose to teach, and no mat
ter what their tracts proclaim, the au-
thortatlVe works of the Mormon
church distinctly command the practice
OF polygamy; and in no authoritative
work Of the church is there any pres
ent inhibition against that offense.
The Tribune challenges any Mormon
print or preacher to show in the stand.

church, any doctrine which prohibits
polygamy in the church today. Tho
