CITY TAX RATE
WILL BE $1.25
CONTINUED from Page One,

features as permanent improvements
and while not enough money was APP
propriated to pay the entire cost of the
bridges it is estimated the city will not
be able to spend any more than the APP
preparation during the present fiscal
year and that next year money will be
appropriated to complete the work.
Last year the council set apart a
large amount of money jas a reserve
fund, which was found very useful dur
ing the past year. as it enabled several
departments to tide over the time with
out a deficit in fact,s although their
books showed a deficit in figures. This
year there Is no reserve fund, and the
general expense fund is but $167, 900,
which means the departments must
carefully keep within their allowances.
If they exceed the amounts there will
be but little money with which to meet
the deficits.
New Department
A new department is created to be
known as the fire alarm and police
telegraph system. For this depart
ment $4,000 is appropriated, and this
will provide for the alarm systems
which both departments have de-
manded.
1t is estimated the city viii have a
revenue of $3,366,000 from all sources.
OF this amount $2,64S,412 will be fur
nished by taxes, If all are paid in, but
an allowance of per cent is made for
delinquencies, which will give the city
a revenue of $2,516,000 from the tax
rate.
Licenses of all kinds will provide
$500 00O-franchises $4,000, loans in the
banks $4,000 and the department re-
ceipts 5000, 000
The allowances for the various de-
partments contained in the budget, to-
gether with comparative table of esti-
mates and expenditures of last year, is

Under Enlarged Plans
and Rush Orders

! San Diego sent a delegation of
/ twenty teachers to Los Angeles a few
4 days ago at the teachers institute,
/ which drew young women from all sec
lions of Southern California and sew
| eral of them who are spending their
two weeks vacation here ordered The
Herald sent to them as a present to
former San Diego teachers whose
coupon list they were anxious to swell.
1t is their hope that these favored
few will be top-of-the-list candidates
in the Seattle trip contest.
They said San Diego is talking about
| The Herald's contest and also that the
recent gathering was the finest they
had ever attended in the west. AS
many of the teachers have eastern
experience the tribute is worth remem-
bering.
Beginning with the new year every
body will watch the daily figures on
contestants and it will be well for
| friends of the candidates to get busy
and send in the votes rapidly. The fig
ures count and some of the lower ones
on the list will begin climbing at a
surprising rate, judging by promises
made by interested ones.
The prize is worth while. Two weeks
spent at the Alaska Yukon-Pacif1c ex-
position is the prize. All expenses viii
be borne by The Herald for the win
ming twelve.
The last obstacle to the success of
the Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposition
was removed when the sale of $780,
600 worth of exposition bonds was COM
pleted. After having subscribed to
$3.50. 900 worth of stock the people OF
Seattle responded promptly to the ap-
peal for additional funds and the $780,
600 was raised within ten days after
the canvass was started.
Expooition Well Under Way
With this additional fund on hand
the scope of the construction of the
buildings and grounds was at once en-
larged and every portion of the work
is being rushed with greater rapidity.
From present indications it is prac-
tically certain that the exposition will
have the distinction of being the f1rst
worlds fair to be completed in every
detail by the opening date.
According to official figures the con-
struction of the building and grounds
is now so per cent complete. Three or
the permanent buildings. to become g
the property of the University or
washington at the close of the fair,
the auditorium, fine arts and machin-
erv hall, are entirely completed.
The plans for the federal buildings
have been approved and contracts for
the construction will be awarded, with
a time limit for completion set for
March l.
The grounds are in excellent shape,
even at this early date A large sec
ton of the green lawns has already
been laid out and number of the
winding paths have been completed.
There are more than million plants
now in the green houses ready for
transplanting and the climate of Puget
sound makes it possible to set out the
more hardy of these during the winter
months.
