Cutting Down Taxes.

slatternly administration may use two dis
tinct methods of uni Just tax extortion: extrava-
gance in using public money; and raising more
public money than is necessary. The tax payer
is as surely robbed when his money is thrown
away as when he is compelled to pay more than
needs require
DR.. Zmmerman's administration is guilty of
both forms of unjust taxation. The rate is high
er than it need be- taxes have not been economic
ally used
That the rate is higher than need be is shown
by tax rates in other we'll governed towns of
about the same size. It is further shown by an
analysis of the needs of the city. To meet all
the needs of this community it is not necessary
to have rate of $1.1O.
But where the present administration has
most failed is its extravagant manner of using
public funds. To hire an incompetent man to
guard the health of the city is extravaganza. To
employ three gangs the streets without fore
and without time records is extravaganza.
To have set of men wandering about over brick
streets with a shovel cleaning up little here and
q little there is extravaganza. To maintain a
garbage crematory equipped to handle less than
half the city's wastes is extravaganza. To have
an ash hauling crew so incompetent as to need an
extra wagon to pick up oversghts is extrava-
gance. To hire man to superntend the board of
public works who has special training for such
duties is extravaganza. To - but there is
no limit.
The remedy for all this is to install the
well recognized methods of taxation based on
annual budget. This would apportion funds
among various departments determined by past
expenditures and carefully ascertained future
costs and would prevent the arbitrary transfer
ing of funds from one department to another. 1t
would compel heads of departments to keep item
lied records of all moneys spent and thus avoid
all the small leakages which in the aggregate
bulk large. Best of all, it would furnish the
administration definite and carefully planned
program for the years work and prevent the hop
scotch methods of the present wherein the bust
ness affairs of the city are so completely at the
mercy of the whms of one man.

The Milk Bogev.

brighten their children into good behavior by
telling them "a booger man will get you if you
Zimmerman machine is now driven is shown by
their frantic efforts to conjure up some kind of
a scare with which to brighten voters into sup
porting the sixth time candidate.
One of the latest is the milk DOGGY It has
been confidently stated in local paper, it was
announced at the grand rally of last Friday night,
that the effect of the improved milk ordin-
ance recommended by DR.. Davis and originally
advocated by the Palladium will be to raise the
price of milk to ten cents. 1t was not considered
necessary by those who started this fairy tale to
go into details and show just why milk would go
up That procedure might not have fitted in with
their purposes because it would have shown them
that the ultimate effect of that ordinance will be
to lower the price of milk.
Neither did they take the trouble to investi-
gate prices in other cities already using the
methods which will probably be made compul-
sorry in the new ordinance; if they had they would
have discovered very little materials with which
to make DOGGY. In Dayton, to cite but one ex-
ample, milk is now retailing at seven cents yet
the dairy regulations there are much stricter
than the EXTREMIST requirements of the proposed
ordinance.
