M. orao was elected secretary or the uieetng. Councilman Dorris showol to the meeting conclusively that If Indebted ness wa allowed In the city that the limit of taxation, which is now five mills, would have to be raised. He al so stated that tho claim that the coun cil would levy a ten mill tax when only 7 or 8 waa needed waa ridiculous, aa st the present time the city had the right and ) si wer to kvy a tax of 6 mills for general expense and a on mill tax for sewer purposes while the council only levied a four mills general tax and one for aewer. Mr. Dorris then proceeded to briefly discuss each amendment and explain them. The amendment, not allowing tne recovery ot damages sgalnat the city front defective Sid- walks, streets, etc., without notice find hsvlng been given to the city of said defect, was unani mously carried. 1 he amendments or the charter per mitting the bonding of the city for (50,ouu to purchase or erect water works, and (2,0U0 for electric lights. sfter a majority of the voters declaring at an election in favor of the pmjKwl- llon, were carried without, oppoaiuon.
