While it is not an unmixed
blessing that the growth o f our
city requires an amendment to
the charter to allow for the is
suance of additional warrants for
general purposes, as appear® by
the notice published in another
column, we feel that the council
cannot be too highly commended
for its good judgment and dis
cretion in providing in the
amendment submitted that the
indebtedness cannot be incurred
until the city has actually receiv
ed the benefit of the work or
supplies for which the warrants
ure issued. By this method it
becomes impossible for the coun
cil to borrow money in anticipa
tion o f expenditures, and have
such money drawing interest
without anv benefit being deriv
ed from it, as the amendment
provides that the warrants can
not be issued until after the work
has been done. A considerable
sum will lie saved to the city by
this restriction, in tho long run.
