Kuck moved that the city levy a tax of five mills as a general fund and a mill and a half as a special tax for the pur pose of paying the interest and redemp tion of the city bonds when they become redeemable. Stephens seconded the motion, which was carried. ' This is the first time the council has taken advant age of the opportunity to levy the special tax in years, bnt now deem it necessary. The mayor then pointed out to the council the principal points of the pro posed change in the charter, The creat ing of a sinking fund was first mentioned. Another important matter is the giving of the council and city officers additional power to compel property owners to re pair sewers, sidewalks, streets, etc. . It would be well had that body more au thority over Bucb matters at. present, or were the property owners to take a small pride in the appearance of their property themselves. The new charter also grants the power to license places here spirtu ous, vinous and malt liquors are sold and not drank on the premises, the license not to be less than $50 a year. . The present charter prescribes the duties of the superintendent of water works, wnne tne new gives the water commis s;oners the right t determine what they shall be, increasing the duties of the re carder by making him clerk of the co mission. ice city win be given the right to ap propriate the right-of-way over priva property for the. purpose of layin sewers.
