OF WHAT USE
Is the Referendum if the City Can
Buy Property Without the Con-
sent of the Voters?

Editor Caucasian: | note in your
| issue of Friday the city's purchase
iof the Schumpert park and home
place is predicated on the future
revenues of the city and that the
city attorneys opinion is to the eff
feet that the city could buy, as did
also the attorney representing the
Schumpert heirs. OF what use is the
referendum if the city can buy
property on predicated revenue
without the consent of the city's
voters? If | am not misinformed,
the future revenues of this city are
already predicated on the purchase
of the Fort Humbug tract for a
cemetery, and the predicated reve-
nues of the city are also to meet the
purchase Of the Schumpert, Park
and home tract. If the city has the
power to buy land and real estate,
on predicated revenues, what is to
hinder the city from buying the
waterworks, or of buying anything
that may be payable on the pred
icated revenues Of the municipal
ity? I am the more surprised over
this buying because it is not many
weeks ago that the proposed issue
of bonds for the buying of Schum-
pert Park was turned down. If the
commissioners are empowered to
invest in land and real estate on
predicated revenues, could they not
buy ''the earth and the fullness
thereof? And would not the tax
payers be made to dance to the tune
of paying more taxes? Will you ex-
plain how it is that the city can in
vest thousands of dollars in this,
way when they can not provide
money enough to fix and repair
some of the streets, Market street
for instance, Jordan street and
other streets? You are requested to
give the public your opinion of this
Schumpert park deal; may be the
Traction Company is the bug under
the chip. XXX.
In Fridays Caucasian it was
stated that the Schumpert park deal
was made possible On the legal opin-
ion of the city attorney and On the
affirmation of the attorney repre-
senting the Schumpert heirs.
The Caucasian has no knowledge
of the Traction Company being the
bug under the chip" but this cor
poration, it would seem, is con-
cerned in the city's requirement of

August BOulanger of Cedar Grove
was tried Saturday in the District
Court, Judge John r. Land, and con-
vlcted of selling booze. He was ably
defended by Hon. John D. Wilkinson
but the evidence was so directly
convincing that Boulanger could not
squeeze out of the meshes of the
law. He was fined $500 and six
months. He was warned by Judge
Land that the penalty would be
doubled should he again be tried
and convicted for selling booze.
Boulanger was jailed.
