A special meetine of the Tight, heat and power committee was called for four o'clock, this afternoon, to con sider the city tax bill against the plant. Last year, $3557.30 was paid This year $1,663.40 is demanded by the city. The increasy of 21,106.10 is due to the increased value of the plant, by way of extensions, about $53,000 hav- | ing been spent. The committees thinks that the taxes charged total too high, and that no increase should have heey, made for extensions. There should he some limit to assessment; it is claim: od. With $1,100 more taxes to pav the plant will not have mach surplos when tha vear énds. Bloven hundred dollars is quite a orack at the box of the light plant.
