From their {ntercourse with taxpayers they have orrived at the concluslon that. thosa who con- tribute the money for the support of the Gov- cernment are unable tostand any higher taxation than they have been staxgering under for the last few years. If penple wil not pay taxes it 1s uselcss to Impoee them. The appropriations last year were $1,000,000. Among the heavy ftemna |Ine(r’|d;rovldml for was 8300,000 for sewers and £200,000 for the Fullerton-avenue conduit. Out of thls sewer appropriation 8125000 haa been actualiy ex?uudfll. That leaves an unexpended halance of $135, yet avalloble. There {8 no necessity for making any appronrin- tion for sewors this year. Tho Fullerton arenue conduit is completed, and it 1s unnccessary to put in this year $200,009 for {t. Here is a clear wain of $300,000 aver last vear's sppropriation. And yet the l)%ummh sond in estimates amounting to 84,500,000, which the Comptroller manageeto cut down to 83,970,000, There must be further retrenchment, think the members of the Finance Committce, and they believe they see the ‘place for it They will mnke s report which will Indicate to the Coun- cil the rond to emmom{; If the Councll do not choose to pursue it, it 1s the fault of that body, and not of the Finance Committec, 3 The members think that the sporopriatton for the Polleo Department, instead of being half a million, should be cut down to §400,000, Tne, think they see where that $100,000 can be pare:l oft withuut hurting the efllclcncy of the furce, ‘The men may have to work harder, but they, ke all other citizens, eapecfally the taxpaying citizens, must bear thelr share of the sorrows whiel follow the oxtravaganco of prior years, The Fire-Marshal aska for $514,000.

It ia thy intention uf the Com- mittee to allow 8400,000, The Committes ex- et o fearful kick at this radical prooosition, ut they think thoy will bo able to polut out vlearly bow the Department can bo run just as clticiently as now, even though 1t gets $100,000 less. It'means going without certaln thn%., but in hard times efties most economize ke (ne dividuals, for citics are but bodies of {ndividu- als, and whot fs good for the unit Iy for tho mase. The Heaith Departmnent, instead of getting £59,000, must be contented with £40.000. The amount ap- propriated for legal oxpenses must at least be cut down to whatiit was Just yeur,—85,000,—and not run_up to $10,000, tha sum puw asked for, Tho schools are ‘sliowed by the Comptrolier £450,000, to bo ralsed by taxation, Last,yoar's nnflruprlnuan wus $433,000. The Committee think they see their way to reduce this at least 250,000, To tax parents so heavily for the nrému of bullding schools for thelr children, rlm they are compelled to take their children out of schiool in order to set them to work, is uot the way to diffuse the blessings of educatlon. i ‘the most perplexing ftem” (s the appropria- tion for a Contingent Fund of $350,000. It wa: pupposed ab frst that thils was purcly for a Contingent Fund proper, that is, to meot ultex- pected expenses, nud also for the purpose of re- paying the doflcioncies of prior years, as well aa those arlsing from,the Goge and Van Hollen defaleations. It appeurs, bowever, that thls is not the casc, and that thia ltem is put fn 8o as to provide the interest which the city will lave to pay on ita temporary loans, providing the grstcm of temporary loans is sustaiued by the Supreine Court.
