Reasons Why the Mayor
Vetoed Bend Ordinance
1 tlio Common Council of the City
"t Klamath Falls:
C'cntlemen I herewith return to
J. with my -eto, ordlnanco No.
Jj. being an ordinance proposing
n amendment to tho charter auth
'lzing the Issuance of bonds In the
""m of Moo.000 for tho purpose of
"Hiding, equipping, etc., or railways,
a'il give as my reasons for aald veto
he follewing:
I'irst Tlio charter of tho City of
"lamath Palls as enacted by the le-
vote.H on March 10, 1913, pro
vlles that no wai rants shall be 1s
jUcil upon the general fund unless
unde ate on hand with which to pay
uch warrants.
Becond The charter provides that
i" debt iinm of tho C)ty of Klamath

the assessed valuation of tho prop
er'y of the city.
'llr(l T!ln rlinftAw mmilJA lka
" l,roP08ltlons to Issue bonds for any
(
specific municipal purpose shall first
be submitted to a vote of the quali
fied electors of the city at a special
election called for that purpose, and
doflnes such qualification to be the
owning of real property within the
city.
Tho ordinance which I am com
pelled, In my judgment, to veto, pro
vides for the issuance of warrants,
funds for the payment of same to be
subsequently provided, It further
provides that the deft limit of the
City of Klamath Palis shall be ret
nulue, and leaves the debt limit of
the city In a position to be Increased
Indefinitely. The ordinance further
provides that the common council
may issuo the bond therein proposed,
and, places the property owner and
the non-prpperty owner on the same
bails so far as. tho creation of muni
cipal Indebtedness la concerned. Our

If thoy wero prepared to vote on the
motion each answered no. Miller
saw that to call fr.r the qucsllo'i

Miller's motion, ns'lng that conoid-
