hrnry. For Its support tho Countv
contributes cfuiln amount of fund,
but If the County Library bo looted
outsldo tho County Peat, then the
Town wherein It Is located must at
slst In Its support. Tho tludgut ap
propriation for tho City Library for
tho year of 1920 was not sufficient
for that purpose making this pro
posed Tax Measuro a necessity If tho
County Library bo retained, Tho
Library In Its present form Is a vnl
uahlo asset to tho City and nlionld
bo maintained.
Argument Afii iimtlvc.
When tho proscnt Charter of tho
City of Ontario was adopted Its mu
nicipal property consisted of Trunk
Sower No. 1 nnd Trunk Sowor No. 2,
then In process of construction. At
; that 1 1 in (i tho revenue of the City
i n in on nt oil to npprovlmatoly Twenty
Thousand Dollars, ($20,000), per
annum.
ai mo prosoui umn mo municipal
property owned by tho City nnd tin
dor Its caro for up-keep nnd main
tenance, consists of n water sys
tem, which cnt Ono Hundred Fifteen
Thousnnd Dollars, ($1 in.000), thirty-two
(.12) blocks of paving, cost
ing Ono Hundred Sixty Thousand
Dollars, ($1(10,000) two trunk sow
ers nnd ton lateral sowers which cost
Nlnoty-sovon Thousand Flvo Hundred
Dollars, ($97, COO), a.ld othor Clf
proporly worth Twenty-soon Thous
nnd Flvo Hundred Dollars, ($27,500)
In all tho sum of Four Hundred
Thousand Dollars, ($400,00). Tho
annual rovenuo of tl-o City for nil
purposes now amounts to approxi
mately Fifty Thousand Dollars,
($r.0,000).
To tako charge of and oxorclso tho
caro over this valuable municipal
property bovoii citizens nro solocted
by tho votors of tho City, who act
In tlio cipnclty of Mnyor nnd Com
mon Council. No oCior officers ore
olocted who havo nuvthlng to do with
tjio caring for tho municipal proper
ty All officers to whom this pro
perty Is (intrusted aro appointed b'
ho Mnvnr nnd Council nnd havo no
responsibility oxcopt to those win
iippolutod thorn On tho other hand
tho Mnvnr nnd CourtcU nro direct I v
rosponsiblo to tho wioplo of tho Cltv
'' Ontario for tho m-nngoniont nnd
caro of thesn varied municipal In
tnrcsts.
, In order that this proportv. which
hns been acquired, at so much cost,
it t'-n citizens of tho Cltv of Ontario,
ibn bo property enrod for nnd main
tained, otiKOiiderH n vast nniount of
responsibility upon tho Mayor nnd
Council nnd to illscniirgo this re
spoislblllty necessitates tho giving
up. Iiv thoso officers of a consider
able portion of tliolr tlmo, for which
lliev receive no compensation
Again tho presont Common Council
U about to adopt tho requisition svs
torn In tho purchasing of Cltv supplies
nml tho ompiovmont or city innor
which will ngnln mako n demand up
on tho tlmo of these officers.
It Is no moro than Just Hint If
you hold men responsible for tho
dtschiii'b'tt of tho obligatory duties
which you call upon them to do. that
thoy should rccolvo some sninll com
poii'ntlnn for tholr services
If this measure, obtains, thero
will be ordlnanco enarnietits drfln
ng moro clearlv and closely thn
tho Charter, tholr duties, nnd mn'-'nif
It ohltBntoiy.fnr tboni to per' rn'
tho tuime In order to becuro their
compensation.
