It is well at this time for our city’s business managers, and the taxpayers generally, to pause and consider the question. Money to run the city must come from licenses or direct taxa tion. The city charter provides that no levy in excess of five mills, for city purposes, shall be made. The present levy is for the maximum amount, or the full five mills. On January 1st, 1916, the $l,200;derived from saloon licenses will cease to be. Provision will necessarily have to be made for funds to replace it, as the license money has been the main factor in keeping the tax levy within the maximum provided by the charter. The city must either reduce its expenses by that amount or provide for a change in the charter, as the loss of license revenue will more than equal a five mill levy—making it necessary to provide funds amounting to better than a ten mill levy.
