Informal

of

That

'
For
three
hours
last
night
the
city
council
in
informal
session
wrestled
with
the
estimates
for
the
year
paring
wherever
possible
in
their
endeavor
to
keep
the
mill
rate
down.
In
spite
of
that
it
looks
as
if
the
rate
would
be
49
mills
on
the
dollar
or
pretty
close
to
that.
The
general
lowering
of
the
assessment
this
year
has
reduced
the
income
from
general
taxes
while
the
increase
in
school
expenditure
has
added
about
a
mill.

proposed

of

city,
will,
If
carried
out,
add

to
the
rate.

and

session
will
be
necessary
to
decide
finally
on
several
debatable
points
before
the
estimates
are
finally
adopted
and
the

rate
struck.
Should'
the
49
mills
be
decided
on,
It

that
