Washington-Thc contest In the
house over the $25o.OOO appropriation
contained in the sundry civic bill to
extend the scope Of the tariff board

The postal savings bank bill which
has been reported from the committee
on postoffices and post roads. Is ready
for the Republican caucus on Wednes.
day. Practically all the Republicans

western members believe the All. per
cent. OF deposits which the bill is re-
ported would require to be kept
in local banks. Is too small and that
the provision Of the bill that passed
the Senate would be more effective
to keep deposits In the communities
where collected. The westerners
charge that the bill as drafted is n
"bankers bill." and that under its op-
Grafton their communities might be
depleted OF money.
After reposing on the senate calen-
dar for many weeks the statehood bill

because of the love he has for the chill

SO. but there is the additional fact
that the children keep him too busy

The above statement really does not
need much explanation, it speaks for
itself.
Since the year 1905, the tax rate has
been 80 on the 500. with the basis
considerable less than it will be in 1910,
(this year, and during part of this time
the expenses were heavier than they
ought to be this coming year, or at any
time hereafter.
For instance. the basis of 1906 was
SO, 767, 1888; in 1907, 1854, 726 80; in
1905, "a, 037, 1877 .S3; in 1909. 81 l03, 593 90;
and IN 1910, it is certain to reach
81, 2l5 500, if not more, while the cost
of maintaining the Bond Issues for
these years was greater in 1906, 1907
and 1908, the total amount of which
Bond Issues being 1888, 600. $4,000 of
which. however. was paid off in 1908
the 1894 Bond Issue of $13, 900, and
So, 900 of the 1898 Bond Issue-so that
at present, the total amount is $l65, 900,
as follows:
1908 Bond Issue. ...$ 10000
1900 Bond Issue. .... 120, 600
1906 Bond Issue - %, 900
$4,000 of the S12G, 900 Bond Issue
will be paid on July list of this year,
and with this amount coming off, the
New Bond Issue, if passed, will only
make the total bonded Indebtedness the
same as it is now, which will be less
than the highest point yet reached
(SIS3. 000), by $4,000. Then in 1911,
SIS. 900 of the $l906 Bond Issue will be
paid. and in 1913, $4,000 more on the
1898 Bond Issue will also be paid.
Therefore. after 1913, the total amount
of the Bond Issues will be only $155, 900,
which will reduce the total amount
thereof to less than it has been since
1906, by $2S, 200; and will reduce the
cost of maintaining the same about 5
cents on the rate, and there is no.reason
why the tax rate will not be reduced
after 1918 to IS cents on the 500, and
continue to reduce in proportion, asathe
Bond Issues are reduced. with theEin-
creased basis, and expenses of the city,
until the total amount of the Bond
Issues is entirely liquidated.
