All Ms Information and copies of all hla photographs are at the disposal of the national government, and If his suggestions are followed President Roosevelt will make a far larger reservation for the protection of the bridges. 1 - - EASY TO RUN INTO DEBT. DARK CITY is furnishing a good example of how It is to run into debt and how difficult It la to live within ones means. Four yearf ago that city voted to bond Itself to the extent of ft,000.000 for the purpose of securing a water supply and for the construction of sewers. It was then announced that the proceeds of these bonds would settle the question of public Improvements for all time. Last night Mayor John 8. Barnsford sent' to the city council an appeal for another bond Issue of $600,000 to furnish funds with which to carry on public Improvements. It would be folly to suppose that these bonds, If Issued, would mark the end of running Into debt for that community. It would be but a beginning. The expenditure of the money secured by this bond issue would simply call for the expenditure of still larger sums and other bond Issues must follow or the city must fall behind. This is the history of every city In the country. It seems hardly right at a time When every private corporattlon ,n he land and every conservative bus InesMirmn Is economising for those who have the expenditure of public funds to be more lavish than ever. .The It Is not easy whole country is living beyond its to teach economy In private Ufe when public officials, high and low, are giving such exhibitions of prodigality.
