THE COMING CITY ELECTION.
The only issue before the munic
ipal voters this year is the curtailing
of expenses and the possible reduc
tion of taxes and how this can best
be done is where the parties differ.
The present council has done well,
but could in my estimation have done
much better, and the present school
board has been exceedingly extrava
gant.
The trouble in our municipal affairs
is that it is so hard to break away
from precedents established years
ago, when the city was larger, rev
enues almost twice as large as they
are today and the "paying quality"
and economic conditions of merchants
and residents were many times better
Our public school costs us today the
same as it did seven years ago with
twice as many pupils, and within a
few hundred dollars we have in the
last two years paid out of the city
treasury in salaries and otherwise as
; much as we did seven or eight
years ago. In this same time ? I am
sorry to say? I do believe that the
real value of property has decreased
M per cent, while the decrease in
the value on the tax roll is insignifi
cant. Business houses pay taxes to
day on stocks? say from $1,000 to
i $10,000 stocks that can't be turned
over in years. Seven years ago some
i of these stocks could be turned more
j than once a year.
It is not what we like to have in
regards to Bchools and city servants
and etc; but what we can afford to
have without chasing out saloons and
merchants out of town by heavy li
censes and taxes. We- all like to
have the best schools possible as far
as we can afford, and we must not
forget that It is a whole lot cheaper
per capita to teach '-200 than 100
scholars in a graded school, but there
is a limit. When it costs us almost
| three times as much as it does down
in the States and twice as much as It
does in some other Alaskan towns to
school a child during the year. I must
say that we are exceedingly extrava
gant. I know that the board has bee
aware of this fact without being able
to tear away from the old precedent,
and it is to be hoped that the board
to be elected with its present able
clerk will succeed in making the nec
essary reforms.
In my estimation it is a pity that
a "combination" ticket, representing
all interests could not te agTeed upon
this year, as I know of no other
"fight" than a difference of opinion
of the different citizens how the city
expenses and taxes can be lowered,
and a "fight" of this kind ought to
be to the benefit of all of us, living
and operating in our little burgh. .
