missioners yesterday contended for
E6.G. After a long debate the matter
was put up to the state authority on
an agreed statement. Under the rul-
ing the city can raise but $2S,6S6 as a
total city levy from taxation. The
estimate was for ss1,467 on basis Of
the 6.6 mill levy.
A brisk fight has been going On for
some time among the negro patrons
of the Excelsior library as to the
present conduct Of that institution and
ii is growing more bitter as time goes
on. A large element OF the colored
population ask the excise board to cut
down the levy to actual necessary
running expenses, less the salary of
librarian. When the board meets next
Monday it is expected there will be a
free for all talk-fest on the subject
between those for and against the levy
as made by the city commissioners.
The road and bridge levy is another
matter that is at present agitating the
minds of the members of the board.
Many farmers have requested the
board to make the limit for roads and
ridges this year. But there are
others who do not want the limit, or
near it.
The pathway of the excise bos is
not strewn with roses, by any cans,
as the several members are now find
ing out.

The decision of the general staff
to leave the garrison in Novogeorgie-

the Germans of the use of railway
communications and of the Vistula
liver for bringing up supplies for

Siege OF Great Interest.
