Limited Taxing Tower.
In Tuesday's News we Htatod the
city charter commission hail increas-
ed the tax rate limit from 2 4c to 3c
on the dollar valuation. The limit set
in the present charter Is 2 'jo 2c ad
valorem and one-half cent for special
Isiproveinents. The editor of the New
as a member of the committee pro-
tested uL'aiiist any increase.
It has now been ascertained that
the state constiluion hays 2'c is the
highest rale that can be levied ho
the proposed new charter will he
changed to read 2 ':('.

There ;ire some here who have an
idea that a commission city govern-
ment may levy taxes without limit
but with the I'lainview cas-i estab-

show:; to be without foundation. May
or Knsle of Swe. tAater to'.l us that
town had limits and i.da we leara

permit a city to l:o so far and it
must then stop.
