COUNCIL PASSED UPON THE PR0PO6ED BILL LAST NIGHT FOR THE
REDUCTION OF MUNICIPAL DEBT AND MAYOR SMITH WILL
PRESENT IT TO LEGISLATORS IN PERSON—AUDITORIUM DIS
CUSSED AND FAIR BUILDINGS CONTRACT WAS SIGN ED AT LAST
NIGHT'S SESSION.
*he city council wai In regular eee-
■lon last night after a week oft and
within tho brief seaelon much was
done which If materialised will make
•Ion a very Important one. The
proposed bill to amend the charter of
Macon relative to the lasua and pay*
ment of bonds and the limitation on
councilman In the expenditures on
their appropriations was up and pass
ed council without a dissenting voice.
The particulars of this bill have al
ready been presented. In the Tele
graph. The issue of six per cent
bonds outstanding at present amount
ing to $490,000 will, If the bill Is pass-
d, be exchanged for new bonded bear
ing less Interest The old bonds are
to come due In 1910, all at once. The
provision of tho bill will make a pro
portionate number of the new bonds
fall due yearly for thirty years.
. The bill specifies that no more than
the out-sanding $490,000 shall be re
issued and provision Is further made
for stopping the refunding process and
Inaugurating the full payment plan.
Taxes are to bo levied by the city nt
a rate of not more than one-half of
one per cent of tho paying oft of these
bonds. These bonds us soon'as signed
are to be placed In the hands of the
bond commission to take the plac e of
former bonds as the commission shall
direct There Is also a provision for
striking out the requirement of pay
ment of $50,000 annually to the bond
commission by the city for Interests
on tho bonds. The hill contemplates
a reduction of this amount from time
to time and while the $50,000 will not
be needed It Is proposed to still give
the bond commission power by law
to collect from the city whatever
amount may be necessary to cover In

oi the college by the city. Under the
supervision of Wesleyan It Is expected
that this park will be converted Into a
flower gurdea The steep embankment
which slopes downward from th*
