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.

mously carried.

sfter a majority of the voters declaring
at an election in favor of the pmjKwl-
llon, were carried without, oppoaiuon.
The question of pertulttiliir Indebt
edness being deducted and the raising
of the limit of the city taxes from five
to ten nulla were earnestly considered
and It waa finally decided by practical
ly a unanimous vote tnsi the charter
In these particulars be allowed to stand
as at present. I e: no deduction of In
debtedness and a limit of five mills
tax.
Then came up the proposition of al
lowing the city to Improve any street
in the city, providing two-tl.lrds of
the council and the mayor declared In
favor of the same, In spite of a remon
strance by the property holders. Af
ter a long argument the amendiueut
wm carried by a largo majority.
The amendment making Eugene a
carute road district, anil providing
that the road tax be collected In mon
ey and that the same be s-nt
on roads leading Into the city, by con
