TAXATION by CITIES.

Section 253 of the Compiled Laws
OF Utah, 1907, provides that:
During the month of July OF each
year the city council at "a regular
meeting thereof shall, by ordinance
or resolution, levy on the real and
personal property within the city made
taxable by law:
dollar to defray contingent expenses.
2. Not 10 exceed 10 mills on the
dollar 10 purchase water sources,
streams, and the land upon which
said streams are appropriated, and
canals, TO construct waterworks and
to supply water for irrigation and
other purposes.
3. Not 10 exceed mills ON the
dollar to open. improve and repair
the streets and sidewalks.
4. Not To exceed 8 mills on the
dollar ito construct ana repair sewers
and drains.
o. Not 20 exceed 10 mills on the
dollar TO construct and maintain gas
works electric light works. telephone
line. street railway and bath houses.
There is no doubt as 10 the inten-
ton of this law TO limit specifically
the taxing power Of city councils, ana
TO define the purposes for which the
tax should be used. II viii be

Monetary Reform.

President Taft has left Beverly,
Mass, where he has been spending a
month for his journey across the north
ern part of these United States to the
Seattle Exposition. In his first speech
at Boston he spoke of the proposed
monetary reform and favored a central
bank to issue notes. He stated there
is to be a campaign of education III
favor of it.
All men who have a tincture OF DEM
ocracy in their blood should begin a
self education on the money question.
First read the U. S. Constition
where it says Congress shall have
power to coin money and regulate the
value thereof. No state shall make
anything but gold and silver a legal
tender for debt"
Then read the decision of the U. ).
Supreme Court: "The Treasury note
is appropriate means conducive and
plainly adapted to the execution OF the
undoubted powers of Congress.
Whether in war or peace by reason Of
the ~inadequacy of the supply of gold
and silver coin to furnish the currency
needed by the government and of the
people it is a matter of fact, wise and
and expedient to resort to this means"
Read Thomas Jefferson's views and
Andrew Jackson's veto message and
his farewell address, wherein he says:
cit is maintained by some, that the
bank is a means of executing the con-
stitutional power ito coin money and
regulate the value thereof" Con-
gress have established a mint to coin
money, and passed laws to regu-
late the value thereof. The money 10
coined, with its value SO regulated, and
such foreign coins as Congress may
adopt, are the only currency known to
the Constitution. But if they have 9TH
er powers to regulate the the currecy,
It was conferred to be exercised by
themselves, and not to be transferred
to corporations. If the bank be estab-
lished for that purpose, with a charter
unalteralle without its consent, Con-
gress have parted with their power for
a term of years, during which the Con
stitution is a dead letter. 1t is neither
necessary nor proper to transfer its leg
islative powers to such a bank, and
therefore unconstitutional"
