people Of the state by which be was
elected when be promised reduc'

take made by the city council Of
Boise for violating Its pledges to re-
duce taxation. That is, he admits
his broken promise, but falls to show
any effort to reduce taxes but makes
the excuse for higher taxes that he
had to pay for "extras e" He makes
the additional mistake. however,
of placing the blame on the people
who, he says, demanded so much that
taxes could not b. reduced.
