Tt had been said during the discussion that the people had been promiged a tax rate no higher than last year. ‘Who Promised Low Tax Rate? “I don’t know who it was that promised the people that the tax rate | would remain the same as last ye: and I don’t know when that promise was made,” said President Chamber- lain. “T’d like to be informed who made that promise. The board of fi- nance goes over these estimates year after year and it is my option that no commission ‘gets away' with much, “The promise was made that the extra tax of one mill levied to givel work to the unemployed on the streets -would be deducted from the appro- priation of the board of public works and that promise was kept as we re- duced the public works appropriation by just about a mill in addition to turning over $8,000 from that depart- ment to other departments which needed the money.

Well, what's the odds. But they must have some- thing to go and come on. The in- cidentals item in the police depart. ment appropriation you propose ta cut from $400 to $100. The appraopria- tion last year was $400 and this was $360 too little. An appropriation for two new policemen has been cut out and you certainly need them. Must Take -Care of Poor. “In the charity department you in- tend to make more reductions. The charity department is somewhat sim- ilar to the school department in that it has the state laws behind it. The department is well managed and we have never had camplaint to make. Only in 1907 during the ‘hard.times” and this year was its appropriation exceeded. They’ll have to take care of the poor whether you give them the money or not. I notice the out- side poor item has been cut $1,000. It can’t be done. “You have cut the appropriation for more wagons for the health depart- ment. But you want to remember that it is in the contract that the city must furnish suitable wagons with which the garbage is callected. I don’t think the printing supplies in the health department can be cut either.” Praise for Institute. Regarding the reduction of $3,000 proposed in the New Britain Institute appropriation, President Chamberlain remarked that it was the intention of those in charge of the libraries to! extend their branches in the schools and he considered them of great value and assistance. Alderman Parker asked sarcastically whether the New Britain Institute | wanted to build any more new fences around the property “in these hard times.” President Chamberlain said that the money for that work had been appropriated last year. He told the council that it cost the city not a penny to erect or equip the build- ing and all that is asked for is ap- proximately seventy-five per cent. of the upkeep. He did not see why there should be a cut in the emer- gency fund of $6,000, which was pre. viously listed under thHe head of ‘“sun - dry account.” ‘“You propose to cut that funé from $6,000 to $4,000,” he said. ‘“That fund is to take care of the expenses that you cannot foresee. Right now I can think of two items that will be paid out of it, $1,000 for the re- ward for the capture of Father Zebris’ murderers and $510 for equipment for the sealer of weights and measures which the state has threatened to buy and charge to New Britain. Cuts Would Cripple Departments. “You simply can’t cut any more of the appropriations without crippling someone. If you do vou will have deficits at the end of the year. You says the council must take final ac- tion at its adjourned meeting, that of last night. Mayor Quigley ruled Councilman Landers’ motion out of order and the latter asked President Chamberlain if he would make a recommendation to the council if that body recessed for five minutes and gave him time to go over the estimates. He objected ta taking up the estimates piecemeal as Alderman Parker wanted to do. Alderman Kerwin thought he saw a loophole and asked if it would not be perfectly legal for the council to declare a recess of one week, the es timated to be fixed up in the mean- time by the board of finance and tax- ation. He asked Corporation Cdun- sel Cooper to give an answer an that point and the latter said he was con- sidering it. Alderman Jester was still hot in favor of accepting his original amend- ment to the estimat “If we want to kill it now time to do it,” he said. A recess of five minutes was de- clared, Mayor Quigley saying face- tiously that A WARNING TO MANY is the Kidney Troubles Few people realize to what extent their health depends upon the dition of the Kkidne; The physician in nearly all cases of serious .illness, makes a chemical analysis of the patient’s urine. He knows that unless the Kkidneys ave doing their work properly, the other organs cannot readily be brought back to health and strength. / When the kidneys are neglected or abused in any way, serious results are sure to follow. According to health statistics, Bright's disease which is really an advanced form of kidney trouble, caused nearly ten thousand deaths in 1913, in the state of New York alone. to pay more attention to the health of these most important organs. An ideal herbal compound that has had remarkable success as a itidney remredy is Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy. The mild and healing influence of thig preparation, in most cases, is soon realized, according to sworn state- ments and verified testimony of those who have used the remedy. 1f you feel that your kidneys re- quire attention, and wish a sample bottle, write to Dr. Kilmer & Co.

A vote was being given Quigley to Councilman called for but was difficult for determine how it McCrann took and argued against abandoning the project of laying permanent pave- ment on Lafayette street.
