TALKING II OVER

That the taxpayers and voters of the. fifth
district are thinking in the up-to-date terms of
t'ty progress was shown by the meeting of the
HaIama Impfose ment Association last night.
Discussion was free and fair, and though there
vas plenty Of opposition to immediate appiica-
Lon Of the frpntagetax system, it was NOT oppo-
.'tion to the hontag tax principle itself. Fifth
district property owners feel that before the
|rontagetax plan is applied, the fifth district
should be put on something like par with the
fourth district so far as street improvements
~ concerned, in view Of the large amounts
&pent from the general fund for fourth district
Improvements in the past few years.
The bonding plan proposed has some good
features and some bad ones. tt should be very
fully discussed before action is taken on it. As
general rule, it is not good municipal economy
for the city to issue general bonds to pay for
special street Improvements.
The encouraging thing about meetings like
HAT Of last night is that they show the residents
Ind property -owners are awake to the issues of
The hour. Lively discussion, even if some of it
/. against the frontage tax, in the end will pro
luce such general enlightenment as to be direct

is just becoming interested, is attracting wide
attention. all over the United States Special

fI|entiy held in New York by the city itself,
with Che cooperation of the Merchants Asso-

years previously an exhibit of the same charac-
ter and aim was held in New York and the re.

New York World gives some interesting details
Of the exhibit.
The exhibits of England were represented by
