Is now busily engaged preparing a
statement which will show councils
and thclf estimates committee where
the city Is at.
Mr. Wldmayer has so far progressed
with Ms work last night as to be able to
state definitely that the tax levy for
the comiiiK year will be thirteen and
six-tenths mills, which is one mill less
than last your, when the purchase of
Nay Aug park had to be provided for.
On this basis he estimates thnt the
revenue from all sources, including
taxes, UceiiHcs and fees will be $272,300.
which is about $2,000 more than last
year's estimated revenues, when the
levy was fourteen and six-tenths mills.
This results from a new revenue of
$;l.000 from poll tax and $u,0OU addi
tional taxes from the Increased valua
tion. Tht assessors have not as yet
completed their work, but they give out
approximately that the assessed valua
tion of tho city will amount to over $-i,-000.000.
an Increase of about $00,000.
Agulnst the $272,300 In Bight there are
requisitions from the .various depart
ments for over $300,000. In the hands of
the city controller. The large demands
made by the chief engineer of the tire
department, the street commissioner
and the chief of police are accountable
for the difference between the estimat
ed n eeds and the estimate wherewith
to meet them. Th appropriation ordln
anc, of course, cannot provide for all
the items asked, for by the different
heads of departments, so It 'Is safe to
say that the estimates committee is
hunting up a double-edged , 'Turing
knife or axe.

have had the pro
gress of the disease
stopped, and have
been brought back to
life and health by the
"Golden Medical
Discovery" of Dr.

Years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, now chief
consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel
and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N. Y.,
recognizing the fact that consumption was
essentially a germ disease, and that a rem
edy which would drive the germs and their
poisons from the blood would cure consump
tion, at last found a medicine which cured 9V
per rent, of all cases, if taken in the earlier
stages of the disease.
The tissues of the lungs being irritated bv
the germs and poisons in the blood circulat
ing tnrotten them, the germs hnd lodgment
there, and the lungs begin to break down.
boon the general health begins to fail, and
the person feels languid, weak, faint, drowsy
and confused. .
This is the time to take Dr. Pierce's Gold
en Medical Discovery; it drives the germs
and poisons from the blood, and has a sooth
ing effect upon the dry cough. In cases of
bronchitis the Discovery" is invaluable.
'Golden Medical Discovery" increases the
amount and qual ity of the blood, thus invig
