City's Valuation
Placed ISL, 4O8,68O

Within the corporate limits of
the city the valuation is placed at
81 ,4oS, $50 for tax purposes. an
increase of ST. 900 over last year.
There is also slight increase in
the levy, but it is evident that
more revenue must be raised,
hence it is proposed to increase
the water rates and impose sew
err tax, since for years the income
from the water" works has been
far less than the cost of maintain
ence, to say nothing Of any con-
sideration for the investment.
The water system must at least
approach a self-sustaining basis.
The proposed levy ordinance is
published in this issue of the Sif-
tings.
