The c y council expects to trans
act a volume of business tonight. '
The fiscal situation is somewhat cri
tical anil the prospects of improve
ment arc not what might be called
extra bright. With the costs of ad
ministration in most departments
practical y the same as when the
treasury was twice as strong and
the population taxable larger and
more affluent, the heads of the city
are considering ways and means of
retrench tents 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 tandard 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
ment in sueh a state of efficiency j
as to k the people from serious j
concern in the matter of fire pro- j
tections, are all of them pretty hard
nuts to crack in a financial way. j
Bills keep just pouring in while (
taxes and prospective taxation is re
latively light. This makes the mat
ter out of considerable difficulty
all around and si hard problem to
he solved by the eouncilmen. It is
felt that something must lie done
in the matter before the city be
comes absolutely insolvent.
