THE CITY DEBT
Of What It Consists asd the Respon-
sibility for It's Existence.

The caucus Of last Thursday evening,
styled republican, was not strictly Of 9
partisan nature but was convention
composed in the main of those opposed
to further improvements of the city,
|if We may judge by the personnel Of
the participants.
"A resolution was passed stating in
substance that it was the sense Of the
convention that no further paving i'm.
provements be made until the water
works bonds were disposed Of and 9
system Of sewerage in the west part Of
the city provided for. This latter
proposition shows that either the fran.
ers Of the resolution were either hand
ing out '.'hot air. or we're ignorant Of
what their proposition meant II they
really favored curtailment of expenses,
sewage system means expense ia
itself and the expense Of an extension
Of water mains on every street west OF
the Granger road. The convention al
so proposed to meet again (this even
ing) and prepare 4 statement Of the
debt Of the town which worries them
greatly. and we'll it may for the re-
sponsibility for most Of it rests with .
number Of those who criticise Mr..
Davenport and the present council.
Several Of these critics are giving fig
ures purporting to show that the city
debt Is about $45, 900. Let us analyze
these figures.
$4,000 Of this amount is stated to be
the amount of school house bonds. The
financial affairs Of the school district
are entirely separate and the school
debt ID in no wise : city debt. Look
It your tax receipt and you will see
that Of the 66. IS mill tax on Cresco
property, 24.2 mills are levied for
school purposes, including bonds. and
"a. AS mills are levied for city purposes.
The water works bonds outstanding
amount to 81, 500. In 1893 the water
works bonds unpaid amounting to $l3,-
coo were refunded at AZ per cent for
20 years. In the twelve years since,!
81, 500 has been paid. The city rec
ords show that $500 was paid in 1909
under Mr.. Davenport and interest pay
ments show no reduction in the princi-

A statement or flsi in the city clerks
office gives the intersst bearing sewer
certificates outstanding tabe 50. $50. sc,
and every penny Of this expenditure
was arrsngcd::for during the administra-
tions Of Messrs. Thomson and Kellow
and in no wise is debt incurred by
Mr.. Davenport or his associates.
The greater share of the balance of
the clty's indebtedness consists Of its
share Of the paving expense, and this
is provided for by as3 mill tax, now
operative, which will raise $3.50 to ap-
ply on the debt during the March tax
payments and will wipe out the entire
paving debt in four years. As re-
suit of this expenditure mile of paw
ing can be completed on the side streets
included in the first paving proposition
with practically no expense to the city
as all streets and alley intersections
are now completed. q,
An overdraft Of abSut 81, 800 now ex-
listing in the general fund will be wiped
out April LIST, by the sreceipts of the
semi annual dividend Of taxes now be-
ing paid into the county treasurer's
Office. the corporation tax revenue be-
ing sufficient to more than pay the
overdraft and accruing claims on the
general fund. This overdraft is due to
the preparation Of tie street for paving,
for the cost Of the storm sewer an
improvement worth more than it's cost
and for thing to provide for the over
flow from the septic tank and which
was imperative to prevent suit to
collect for damage to overflowed land.
A half mile of tie to complete this
extension has also been paid for out Of
