FIFTY CENT TAX RATE
On The Hundred DOIIarS..-WiII
Bring in About twenty-five
Hundred Dollars.

At the regular meeting of the City
Council held last Thursday evening, the
following members were present, W..
w. Bradshaw, Mayor; Councilmen, J..
o. Russell, Horace Jeffries and John B.
Coffey. In the absence of Gordon
Montgomery, Secretary, Mr.. Russell
was appointed temporary Secretary.
The Expense for operating the crush
err, and placing crushed rock on James
town street was allowed, as were sew
eral other small claims.
By unanimous vote the Council
raised the tax rate 10 cents on the
hundred dollars, making the rate for
the present year fifty cents. This will
put into the Treasury of the town fully
$500 as working fund, which should
if applied judiciously, and we think the
present Council has shown that they
are making substantial improvements,
will help to place the town in first class
condition.
