As a re sult the budget includes only *1000 more than last year, in the face of a much larger population. When an item waa brought up it was thoroughly considered and it it was thought that it could be dispensed with, it was not Included In the amounts to be raised. Grant* Fw^s last year paid off *20,000 of its indebtedness. This year an attempt will be made to fur ther reduce the amount owed by the municipality. There are at present bonds outstanding to the amount of *300,000. By pursuing the course of economy, the expenditures «re re duced to a minimum and the surplus used to pay off the debts. It is sound business to run the city as cheaply as possible if none of the de partment* suffer. In the matter of road repair, the council felt that they would do everything possible toward provid ing good side streets. Little money Is available at the present time but this work will be done whenever possible. The council showed a de sire to give Grants Pass as good streets as can be provided on the fund* obtainable. This is one item that should not be cut too hard.
