"Whatever may bo tho result of tho coming election the agitation for and ngalnst tho proposed now tax levy has been of Invnluaulo educational ben efit to tho citizens of Rend. Now for tho Jlrst tlmo many, who never thought of tho matter before, havo soma Idea of what tho cost of city op eration Is. They know what tho city is paying In Interest on bonded debt. They begin to understand tho rela tion botweon a low valuation and a high levy and they arc paying atten tion to tho question of how operating revenue shall bo obtained.

Everything but the absolutely essentlrl must be cut out. Not a cent must be spent above the budget. Only In that way will we ever come out on top of our debt and get in position to tako care of the future BRAKEMAN INJURED IN FALL FROM CAR (From Tuesday's Dally.) P. F.
