SUBSTANTIAL REVENUE.

The announcement from the city council that the revenue ordinances are being revised So that the city rev enue will be materially increased from the ranks of the privilege holders who work under special tax, sounds like business.
 The city that has to depend on ille- glsimate revenue for its support is ia a bad way Hot Springs does not have to do this.
 The city has gotten along we'll when the illegitimate revenue was cut off, and under the present taxing system, Of course it did not make that nut nicipal progress that it might have done, but it lost no ground in finan- cial way It has been kept on a doi- lar for dollar basis.
 To increase the special privilege licenses materially means that there will be more money poured into the city treasury.
 The illegitimate revenue the city gets now will not be lasting It is folly to believe that such a municipal support is solid Any time an incl dent may arise that will cut off evers dollar of the illegitimate revenue, anc KEEP IT SHUT OFF.
 Hot Springs is through with the ex perimsntal stage of municipal man agemcnt.
 People who live in Hot Springs ant enjoy legitimate business patronage must meet the expense of munieipa government. Their pride should make them want to meet that expense Their pride should make them want their city free from the necessity q colusion with illegitimate operator of any sort or kind
 The council can not do better than work on revision Of it's revenue ordi- nances so that the income will be ficient to the normal expense of the city government Then in time there will be a legislative enactment that will permit the city to charge an occu- patton tax, and when that is done al the cities of the state will make ms. terial advances.
