Export Approves Of Comnls-
sion Form IN Topeka.



Having agreed to spend $500 on an
expert opinion Of Topeka's municipal
management. the city commission
placed the compilation of the report
in the hands Of D. o. Decker. who
has just completed his record and
placed 1t on file. Though declaring
the commission form of government
q success. Mr.. Decker makes several
clean-cut criticisms of the city's adj
ministratton. its handling OF financial
matters, and its organisation.
In brief. the report states that the
commission government, though re-
cent. IL success in Topeka; that few
OF the present defects are due to the
city's form of government; that the
city charter disregards many proper
principles Of organisation and ignores
certain elements Of business admins
tration: that the commissioners are
not made properly responsible be-
cause their powers are limited and
certain publicity ID not insured; that
the repeal of mandatory tax limits
for special purposes and the subetitu-
ton OF one general limit should be
made: that essential financial factH
cannot be ascertained from the city
books without analysis.
The report cOmmendS the city bond
system as worthy. economical and
successful" Mr.. Decker commenda
the fact that the city levies its taxes
! in advance, but criticizes the fact that
a daily bank balance Of $230,00O II
maintained.

If your assessment is too high, Mr..

have your innings with the board OF
county commissioners and may be
able to get it lowered by means of a
we'll placed protest. A lot Of your
fellow p. O.'s are trying it ut the
court house and the sessions Of. the
board of equalization will continue
for a week longer. After that it will
be too late
The early. summer months are
fraught with toll for those who hold
the offices on the west side Of the
main floor of the court house. The
collection Of the last half of the 1913
tax will rush the county treasurer
until the end Of June. WHILE farther
down the hall, the county Clerk and
the board of county commissioners
will be busy working over problems
OF tax levies for 19l44uptiI we'll on to
the end Of the summer. -
If you haven't paid your last hall
tax it's a fine time to slip in and dc
it now. according to Treasurer Matt
Weightman. Those who put it of
will be mixed up in the big. June rush
that always takes all the pleasure out
Of being county treasurer.
