D. Gorgas, superin tendent of Finance, to-day suggested that the estimated receipts of the water department for each year could be figured tn with the municipal reve nues when the budget is made up. By this plan the City Commissioners could provide amply for extensions and improvements from time to time, allow more for maintenance and still keep down the mill rate. The plan that has been suggested by Mayor E. S. Meals was to keep down the tax rate for 1917 by divert ing $68,000 to $70,000, the sum gen erally appropriated for street lighting purposes, from the surplus water earnings. City Commissioner H. F. Bowman, superintendent of Public Safety, has expressed a desire to give the citizens the best possible benefit of the yearly earnings of the water department, but he declared repeatedly that he had been advised by the city solicitor that this action can't be taken. Recently Council was advised otherwise. The Public Safety superintendent, too, has declared that the surplus earnings should be kept Intact in or der to provide for future extensions of the reservoir facilities, etc. In speaking of his own plan to-day Commissioner Gorgas pointed out that the present surplus could easily he left Intact as a nucleus for the pro posed reservoir fund, but that Council could figure on the coming year's es timated revenues from the water de partment in making up the budget. The earnings, it Is estimated, should run to between $70,000 and $75,000, he said. Council will likely discuss this mat ter Friday when the Commissioners meet for the first conference on the 1817 budget. ——— THE NEW STORE IS OPEN THIS EVENING WKBOHMBKm You Do Not Have to Worry About HIS Gifts For The New Store of Wm.
