Members Are of Opinion That Pat
ting of Indefinite Idea Before
Public Would Be Oat of Rea
son Action Due Today.
Vollowing the bobble of his plans for
a municipal electric lighting plant on
Bull Run River, which the City Coun
cil considered too ridiculous to submit
to the voters. City Commissioner Daly
yesterday rushed to the rescue of his
lighting- plant programme which he has
counted on as the main thunder in his
campaign for Mayor, and asked the
Council to put up to the voters the
question of whether they favor a muni
cipal lighting plant. The Council will
consider the question at a session to
morrow morning.
Mr. Daly would have the voters pass
on the question of a lighting plant
without any definite plan as to cost
being made a part of the question.
Members of the Council in discussing
the question tentatively yesterday said
they questioned the propriety of sub
mitting such a question without the
voters being given some definite plan
or some figures on which to base their
opinions when they vote. It was con
tended that when something legitimate
and tangible In the lighting plant line
Is ready It is time to submit the ques
tion to the voters.
IVeed of Plaform Apparent.
That Mr. Daly feels a dire need for
the lighting plant proposition as cam
paign thunder during his race for
Mayor, seems clear from his action in
the Council. His views or Intentions
have not been altered even though a
hydro-electric engineer of his own se
lection said his plant would cost double
what he estimated and would be an
economical and probably a physical
failure.
When Mr. Daly sprung his new move
yesterday the Council commented on
the plan unfavorably. "I fear," said
Commissioner Dleck, "that it is unwise
to submit a question to the voters
without having anything definite for
them to act on. In voting they should
know what the plan Is."
"I believe," said Commissioner
Baker, "that there should be something
definite for the voters to go on. If
any legitimate proposition Is put up I
am in favor of submitting It. I think
we are all willing to go just as far as
Mr. Daly pleases if he will present
something legitimate. There has al
ready been one proposition put up that
absolutely was not legitimate, and if
that can happen now, what assurance
has the voter that the same tring
will not happen again. Have some
thing definite and accurate, and make
a clean cut Issue of it; that's my Idea."
Move to Defeat Action Suspected.
"We decided at the meeting yester
day," said Mayor Albee, "that the
lighting plant proposal should be put
aside while we are investigating the
L. ii i . : - . , .
ifuootuui uc3 ul vl aucceesrui plane. 1 his
move seems to be to defeat that very
purpose which was to get something
definite- to put up to the voters."
"I cannot see," said Commissioner
Bigelow, "how this would be a fair
proposition. The voters would act, I
believe, on information regarding the
original Daly proposal. That might
mean a defeat of the question and the
defeat of municipal ownership as an
issue for years to come."
"We ought to investigate and ap
prove a municipal project as technical
men," said Commissioner Dleck. "In
vestigate and get something certain In
.readiness and then submit it In defi
nite and dependable form to the
voters."
Action on Detention Rome Cited.
"Would It mean anytihng to you, Mr.
Daly, if the voters said they favored
a municipal lighting plant?" asked
Mayor Albee.
"It certainly would." , replied Mr.
Daly.
"It didn't mean much," said the
Mayor, "when they voted in -favor of
a detention home for women. After
the vote the Council, If you will re
member, continued to sidetrack the
proposition until it died an unhappy
death."
Mr. Daly was one of the leaders In
the delaying process which followed
the passage of the detention home
measure.
BALLOT TITLES ARE FIXED
G. S. Shepherd Protests Against
Same Formula for Two.
The catch' phrase, "abolishing com
mission form of government." will go
into the ballot of both measures to be
voted on June 4, providing new forms
of government. The City Council ruled
to this effect yesterday .over the pro
test of George SS. Shepherd, proponent
or one or tne measures and opponent
of the other. Mr. Shepherd wanted the
phrase in his own ballot title, but not
in the other.
After being turned down by the
Council, Mr. Shepherd said he would
fight in the courts. It is expected he
Avi 1 1 seen some court action at once.

Prohibition Law Cuts Off 940 0,000
Yearly, and Unemployment
Problem and Storms Cost
Extra, Says Statement.
Conditions which the city under Com
mission government has had to face
during the last our years are Bet forth
In a sta.tement Issued yesterday by City
Commissioner Bigelow showing com
parative costs of Councilmanic and
Commission forms of government.
Mr. Bigelow points out the loss of
liquor license revenue amounting to
nearly 4UO,0u0 a. year; the need of
large expenditures to meet unemploy
ment conditions during the winters of
1913, 1914 and 1915; the expenditures
necessary to stop unusual land slides
In the heights on the West Side; the
increased area of the city and the in
creased expenditures necessary by
measures enacted by the voters calling
for appropriations or bond issues.
Mr.- Bigelow's statement follows:
Operating expenses of the city are leu
under Commission form of government than
they were under Councilmanic government,
notwithstanding claims to the contrary of
the proponents of the anti-commission
charters, and In spite of the fact that
an area of 14.40 square miles (or 27.8 per
cent) has been added to the city since the
advent of commission government.
Kevenuee Are Decreased.
It is true that the tax rate has increased,
but this is accounted for by a large decrease
in aaseased valuations, and by loss st reve
nue from liquor licenses inearly 1400.000 per
year), and miscellaneous receipts other than
taxation from 1. 1 10,670.84 in 1U12 to $4W.
251.5W in the fiscal year 1IU0, a net loaa
of 01S.31U.2.. which is equivalent to -2.1
mills on present assessed valuations. This
613,31li.2r loss is made up. in addition to
the nearly S4UO.000 loss of liquor licenses
because of prohibition, of decreased Inter
est on deposits, decreased premium of bonds
because less bonds were sold, decreased re
ceipts for engineering on public improve
ments and decreased general license receipts,
ail occasioned by general business con
ditions. Inuring the year 1913. six months of which
was under Councilmanic government, and
five months Minder Commission government
(only 11 months in fiscal year of 1913 be
cause of change in the charter) the total
general expenditures of the city were $2.
944,553 99. Of this sum l.70,ool.00 was ex
pended in the first six months by Council
manic administration, an average -monthly
expenditure of f278.333.ti6, while during the
remaining five months of the fiscal year
SI. 274. 551. 99 was expended by the Commis
sion, or an average per month of $254,910.39.
since 1U13 under Commission administra
tion the total general expenditures have de
creased until in 1916 the total was S2.8U3.
884.44. or an average monthly expenditure
of S241.157.04.
Taxpayers Create Debts.
It is also very Important to know that the
expenditures of 1916 covered items of ex
pense which were created by vote of the
taxpayers, and which were not included as
items of expense in the year 11113, or in any
year previous thereto, in the sums of $30,000
for firemen's relief and pension fund, 1-4,-000
.Increased Interest charges on general
bonded indebtedness and S2U, 145.65 for the
operation of tlie second ftreboat. approxi
mately S2S.OOO for street lights and for
added area of 14.46 square miles, and poorly
lighted area of city total of item ,
145.65. It must also be remembered that during
the fiscal year 1916 (which began on De
cember 1. 1U15) there was greater distress
among men of families, because of unem
ployment, than ever before In the history
of the city. On this account an emergency
expenditure of 9o8,926.64 was necessary to
provide employment for these family men.
Of this sum approximately S20.0OO was ex
pended tor the removal of snow and ice
following the terrific snow storm in the
early part of 1916, when traffic and busi
ness were paralysed by snow blockade. The
remainder of this emergency expenditure
was largely used la the development of
parka
Snows Cease Expenditures.
Another most unusual expenditure oc
casioned tv the extremely heavy snowfall
of the early part of 1916. was the sum of
SB2,e79.62, which was used in protecting
city property from slides, removing slides
and repairing damages to streets caused by
slides In various parts of the city.
Thus it will be seen that notwithstanding
the sum of $98,145.65 added by vote of elec
tors and added area, which was included in
expense of 1916, but not in any portion of
Councilmanic government expense, and the
further emergency expense of $91,806.26 in
1916 because of terrific storms and land
slides, and which Including all these Items
In the 1916 expenditures, still the average
monthly expenditure for the year 1916 un
der Commission government was but $241,
157.04. as against a monthly average of
$273,333.60 fur the last six months of Coun
cilmanic Kovernment, or a decrease of $37,
176.62 per month In spite of the fact that
the city contained 27.9 per cent more area
than It ever did during any Councilmanic
administration.

merit. There is pathos In abundance, a splendid east, able direction, and
throuBh It all there exists a touch of subtlo comody in contrast with its
more pathetic nature that enhances its value as a clean and thoroughly enter,
.talnlng photoplay. It Is an exceptiuna My fine production and can be well
recommenced to those who are looking for wholesome plays with a wealth
of human rhterest.
