nINyNNY ON DEBT LIMITS.

CITY Attorney Dininny has had re-
violation on the amount of new bonds
the city may issue without exceeding
its debt limit; and like some of Di-
ninny's other revelations it is. or
ought to be. subject to revision with
out notice.
The special auditors who have
adorned the city pay roll so long and
so dearly. figured the ultimate limit
of new bonds at less than 100000.
whereas Dininny sees a possible
81. $50. 600 in his dream of bonds. He
arrives at this result by assuming
that the refunding bonds issued to
take up the city's debt incurred in
territorial days are not a debt at all
in the sense that they apply to the
eitys limit
Now, strange as it may seem, the
constitution of the state of Utah does
not take the same view of the debt
limit that Mr.. Dininny does. The con-
stitution says, in article IA. section 4.
that No city, town, school district or
other municipal corporation. shall be-
come indebted to an amount, includ-
ing existing Indebtedness. exceeding (
per centum of the value of taxable
property therein. Provid-
ed further. that any city
may be allowed to incur larger in
debtedness, not exceeding 4 per
eentum additional. for supplying such
city or town with water, artificial
light or sewers ."
II will be noted that this constitu-
tional provision includes existing in
debtedness" in its restriction upon the
limit of bond issues 1t does not ex-
cept refunding bonds or any other
bonds, but it does implicitly include
all outstanding indebtedness.
As a matter of fact, the bonds re-
ferred to were called "refunding' is
sues because the bondhOlders wished
their securities to retain their original
status; and when that issue was up
for discussion the best lawyers in the
city held that the bonds would take
rank as a part of the citys limited
debt. In the constitutional conven-
ton the same view was taken of the
question. In the case of the state a
specific exception was made by which
the state limit of 100000 was in addi-
ton TO the existing territorial indebt-
edness: and even then the limit was
to be applied whenever the territorial
debt had been extinguished
: There is another constitutions
clause which the city administrator
seems to have overlooked. It is ar
ticle IA. section 8, and it says: NO deb
in excess of the taxes for the current
year shall be created by
any city. town or village un.
less the proposition shall have beer
submitted to a vote of such qualified
electors as shall have paid a property
tax therein in the year preceding sucl
election
In 1907 the present administration
created an Indebtedness in excess o
its revenue from taxes amounting e
4bout $4,000. without authority from
the taxpayers and in plain violation
OF this provision OF the constitution

"The violent earthquake that de.
| stroyed In March, 1912, the city of
Caracas, in South America, appears
to have had some connection with the
shocks felt at the same time in the
valley of the Mississippi"
Judge Joseph Guild gives a char
acteristic account Of the earthquakes
| of 1811-12 in his "Old Times in Ten
nessee," now out of print. In this
interesting volume he says:
THE earthquakes of 1911 COM
menced on the 18th of December, at
half-past two o'clock in the morning,
| and were felt at intervals up to 1919,
and as late as July, 1922. For two
or three months the shocks were fire.
quent, almost every day. Then they
gradually decreased in frequency
and took place at longer intervals,
which continued to lengthen until
they finally ceased.
"The water in the Mississippi near
New Madrid rose in few minutes
IL or ID feet, and then fell like a
tide. Some lakes were elevated, as
surface Of the earth in the neigh
borhood, and still remain so. The
country near New Madrid was every
where broken up in burrows six or
eight feet wide and as many deep"
An historian gives what purports
to be the evidence of an eyewitness
to the formation Of the lake as fol-
| lows:
"Col. Walker, Of Missouri, who, in
| company with an Indian, came over
the Mississippi river into Tennessee
| for the purpose Of hunting on what
| was then called Reelfoot Creek, in
December, 1911, stated that while
there hunting the earth began to
shake.
| becoming much alarmed he and
| the Indian started to return, and
upon reaching the place on Reelfoot
| Creek where they had left their ca
noe, they found that the earth had
sunk, and that the waters from the
Mississippi had rushed in and form
ed great lake, which they after
ward found to be 25 or 80 miles in
length, and from one to ten miles in
width"

1t was merely a cas- Of going through the

While none Of the conferees was inclined

that an agreement vas reached that there
will be no compromise at present with the
Foraker faction In Ohio. The Senator will
have 10 take his chances with other candi-

elected the probabilities are that Senator
Foraker will be named for another torn In
case he gives loyal support TO the ticket in
