COUNCIL GOT BUSY ON
BUDGET FOR 1911
Departments Of the City Ask
for Funds

The session of city council last
night was devoted very largely to
discussion of the municipal budget for
the current year and the appropria-
tons to be made the several depart
Een,s, including waterworks, streets,
fire and police, cemeteries and other
minor expenditures coming under
these heads.
Mayor J. E. Mathis presided, with
six aldermen, Messrs. Allen, Council,
Brown, Bolton, White and Riley pres
ent; a full aldermanic board
The budget, exclusive of the city
schools, represents a total probable
expenditure of $4,000, while in addi-
ton thereto the estimate of Supt \.
G. Miller for school expenditures was
S22,50Q This latter expense, however,
is provided for in the usual direct
tax levy.
Il was estimated that the cost Of
operation of the waterworks would
be $4,000; the street department $15,-
coo; fire department $1,000; police
department $1,000, with $1,000 as cost
Tor ,2king care of the cemeteries.
T~ese items represent a total eX-
pe1liture of $45,1O0.
OF course, a handsome revenue over
and above operating expenses is deriy-
ID lr-m some of these sources, the
Watc.works alone paying profit last
year Of $1,000 over cost of operation
ana maintenance. The police depart
me1-, too yields a revenue to the
city, as does the street department il
several respects.
TIE council was in session until :
late hour with the budget.
Further time was requested by tho
Street committee upon the matter o.
paving the business streets of Amerl
Gus, and this concession was granted
\ committee of ladies representing
the D. A. R. came before council re
