With the costs of ad- ministration in most departments practically the same as when the treasury was twice as strong and the population taxable larger and more afluent, the heads of the city are considering ways and means Of retrenchments will even then hardly prove equal to the need for reduc- tion which the revenue calls for Desire to maintain the schools at a high standard with the territory paying a good proportion Of the re- venue. the wish to only effect cer- tainly needed Improvements in the street department and the neces- sity to maintain the fire depart mcnt in such a state of efficiency as to keep the people from serious concern in the matter of fire pro tections, are all of them pretty hard nuts to crack in financial way. Bills keep just pouring in while taxes and prospective taxation is re latively light This makes the mat ter one of considerable difficulty all around and a hard problem to be solved by the councilmen. It is felt that something must be done in the matter before the city be- comes absolutely insolvent.
