There was considerable discussion between Mr. Murray and Mayor Thomas Robins in regard to the payment of tones in the city. Mayor Robins said the fourth district paid so per cent of the taxes of the city. He said that the people in that dis- trict are paying more for the roads than the people in the'outly lng dia- tricts. The matter of police and tire protection in the outskirts also was discussed at length. Mayor Robins. in reply to Mr. Murray, said that as long as he was in office he has al- lowed any tax payer the right to talk nt council meetings as long as it did not interfere with the work of the council. Mr. Murray said the assessors were is: in their duties ifpeopio in the fifth district pay too low taxes. John Dcvine took exception to the remarks of Mayor Robins that the fifth district was being under- taxcd.
