The Omaha & Council" Bluffs Street Railway! Coinpasj', operating the present toll bridge across the Missouri River between '©mafia' and Council Bfclfs, addresses,- through ffeii medium, a few statements of fact _ to the .voters of,..Omaha on the Rropositioa of bonds for a so-called "free" bridge between the two cities.

BOND-ISSUES AND TAXES. / The complaints against high taxes nowa-days are numerous and loud. " With the •individual, as with the business man. taxes have assumed serious proportions and have become a h§avy burden.' There is a saying that nothing is certain but death and taxes.

Taxes are necessary for carrying on. the government of the City, State and Nation, and when assessed and used for that purpose are not cause for complaint. But when taxes go higher because of the reckless issuing of bonds for this, that and the other purpose, the taxpayer has a right to kick. ' In view of the proposal to vote a Million Dollar bond issue at the coming election to build • a " so-called "free" bridge between Omaha and Council. Bluffs, it may be well to give a little thought to the subject of bond issues- and, taxes, ;• From the-annual report of the City of Omaha we learn1 that the general bonded debt of- the city was $9,808,938.00 on December 31st, 1919. This does not include Improvement bottds, nor the $7,000,000.00 Water Works-Bonds, nor 15,000,000.00 Gas Plant Bonds. . \ The following table shows the purposes for which the $9,803,938.00 General Bonds • w e r e issued:;.'-••

Special Assessment.

• • *'-Ther.-'Smounf of Interest which, the Omahs -" taxpayers must pay annually on this bonded debt is §444,674.66. In -addition to the_ interest, the entire sum ofT nearly Ten' Million Dollars falls due %\ it!iin the next 18 years and must be raised through taxes.

The City at present has not one dollar on hand as a sinking fund to retire these bonds..

• And this is not ail. There, are outstanding at this date $3,687,000 of Omalia School Bonds, on which the taxpayers must pay annually, the suai of $173,120.00 as interest, And several million dollars more of School Bonds-will be issued'as soon as they can be sold for the purpose of building a new High School of Commerce and other much ne'eded school • buildings.

Douglas County also lias outstanding. bonds'to the amount of $2,937,000, on which the annual interest is $131,620.00, -a verylarge part of which, the Omaha taxpayers must pay through their County taxes.

The legitimate needs of any growing city' are many,. and further bond- issues for proper purposes will be numerous enough.

For instance, -you will be called on in the near future to vote bonds for the following -projects recommended by the City Planning Board: " • .

To Cost ' Widening of 24th Street from Cumins' to Pacific $1,600,000.00 Widening Harney Street from 20th to' 26th ;..„_ ,. 375,000.00 Cutting through Douglas Street • from 24th.
