The last annual llnanclal statement or tlie

that the aeta of the lty aggregate 11,017,

As thuxe leans bearing the higher rate or in
terest mature or bocemo redeemable, It will
be the duty of theliscal authorities te refund
such portions of them as remain iiupnld, with
leans net higher than 4 ierceut, which past

Tlie pest valuations ei uie property "

ls ler your lluanre roiniiilttce te determlne
tint margin, ir any such exists, for an lu
crtMHu of Iho funded debt in connection with
projected Improvement of some or the most
important departments of the public works.
Under no circumstances would any Increase
of the present tax rate ls tolerablo; but a
lair equalization of the assemment of real
esUite In thecltv Is a subject te which mere
earnest and systematic attention should Im
given by thecftlrens.
I am veryllnnly or the opinion that no
permanent indebtedness should be contract
ed for temporary purposes ; that all expendi
tures should le limited te appropriations
protleusly made; that tlie exKinseserech
year should be paid out et the appropriation
ler that year; that nil debts contracted with,
out nroner nutherily or law are illegal, and
the city U net liable ter thorn ; that contracts
made In oxceHs of tlie amount prescribed hy
law, without Inviting proposals, are Invalid
aud net binding upon the municipality ; aud
that all contractors with the city should be
required te iwrfenn thelr stipulated service.
I w 111 use all the pewer of my efllce te pro pre
vont and restrain illegal payments out of the
city tressiiry.
THK WATKIl gtJKSTIO.V.
The chlet coticern that must ongnge the
altentleu of thocltygevernmont, and thoeno
of most general interest te its citizens Is our
water supply, storage and distribution, i and
the drainage. Fortunately, owing le past
Improvements and elllclent mauagoment,
tliere Is less ground for approhensleu new
than formerly of n fallure of n copious suiv
ply or lack of fair distribution; but in the
near future Increased storage facilities must
be provided. I.lkowlse the growing popu pepu
latinn and rapid Improvement of the
northern and northeastern parts of the city
require the niieedy construction or uew means
ordralnage for these sections. Ukii these
two projects of prosslngcencern thore should
be, during the coming suiumer, some pre
liminary survey and the formulation of some
well-dovlsed and intelligent plan ; upon no
ethor basis can there be that lull Information
and discussion which should precode the
submission or such an Important subject te
popular vote.
tiik rm.icK.
I will, tmmodlatelv upon his continuation,
communlcate te my chief et police, the reg
ulations which I expect te control that im
portant department of the city government
I will exKct from Its members discipline
aud a strict enforcement et law nnd order ;
asking from alt citizens their co-eporal Ien in
the etlert te maintain these, I will promptly
and summarily dismiss from the pollee ferce
any member proven guilty or dereliction of
duty, whether It be in the shape or abuse of
authority, negllgencoer duty, favoritism or
personal m Iscend net.
TIIK HTHKKTrt.
Moneys appropriated for street repairs or
Improvements should, In my Judgment, Is)
RHevimlvrtnd lulrlv distributed as possible,
ethat the taxpayers who contribute thorn
hae their respective share and bouellta. A
glance at some of the macadamlrlng recently
doue for the city shows that it Is net In the
character or permauent Improvements. The
nxperlment in the centra of the city with
Belgian block pavements Just I lies councils
in providing for at least one new square of
this street pavement every year, te be laid
where the street is most used and where
fronting proper ty-hehl ere will most liberally
aid In the work.
I.KI11T1N1I Till! CITY.
The supply or light ler the streets or the
city for mero than a year te coine Is provided
rer by contract recently ordered te be made.
Within that tlme It Is te be hoped that Im
provement lu the cleclrie system or satis
factory arrangements with the gas company
will be etlected, which will enable the city at
no leng-deferred day te secure a permanent,
uniform and well distributed service, greatly
liolew the cost of the present contract.
THIS KIIIK lIBPAKTMIiNT.
Thore are reasons te bollevo that tlie elU.
elenev of the present tire department is crip
pled 'and retarded by lack of proper appa.
ratus. I need hardly remind you that the
Increased cost el securing greater elllcleucy
and protection would be trilling, compared
with the extent of the danger risked by nu
Incomplete department ThU sublect should
engage the attention ofyeur bodies as seen
as tna commiueea are organism.
Renewing my engagement te communl cemmunl communl
caeo from time te time my views upon af
fairs of government, ns they may tiecome
mere familiar te me, and Inviting the co
operation ofyeur honerablo Ink! las, and of all

llranrh of Councils.
Next te the new mayor, the most conspic
uous figure In the city government and in
Iho Inaugural cotemenies of te-day was
Rebert A. Kvans, prosldent or select council,
who lias been identified with the city gev om em om
nient for many mero yenra by far than any
ethor prosent momber of it. In 1SJ') he was
tlrst elected te select council and has been re re ro
eloctod and sorved continuously ev or slnce a
peried of twenty-soven years, wlilcli will be
increased by two mero when he will have
flulahed his prOHent term, having been again
chosen and without opposition at tlie last
February olectlon. Frequently he lias
been sharply antagonized aud he-
vorely cut hy Republicans hut he
always commands a large vete from
the opposition, who have about given up the
Idea et trying te beat hi m in the present state
or parlies here. He has eften lieen president
of councils, sometimes elected without re
ceiving all the vetes of his own party, and
w hen net lu the chair he has geuemlly been en
the finance and ethor Important commlttees.
