MAYOR DECKER'S VALEDICTORY
MESSAGE.
,,oen of The Common Council :

Gentlemen of the Common Counc1t:
With the close ofyour present session our
official connection will cease, and, IN suTrendering
N those chosen to be our successors the authority
with which we have been invested, 1t affords me
great pleasure to communicate to you this my
Closing Message and review briefly some of the
more important acts of our administration.
In the management of the finances OF the city,
deemed il the true policy to raise no more rev
enue than was sufficient to defray the necessary
EXPENSES of the city. With this view the general
tax was reduced from Leg the amount last year,
10 81 cts, on each one hundred dollars assessed
This year. benga reduction ofabout fifty per cent,
when we take into account the reduced valuation
of real estate in the assessment this year as COM
nared with last year. The Interest tax was also
reduced from As cents last year to 46 cents this
wear The revenue from these reduced assess
ments would still have lett handsome balance in
The Treasury but for the general reduction of Lii
censes amounting on an average to about twen-
ty-five per cent. With the revenue from all these
sources greatly diminished and several heavy
items of extraordinary expenses to provide for,
such for instance as were incident to the holding
the State Fair here introducing gas into the
public buildings, making general survey OF
portion of the City, and the construction of the
street Sewer it is to be expected that the general
fund would be almost exhausted, which is the
case, with, however, less unadjusted claims for
our successors to settle than usually left over
from one Council to the other.
The assessment roll on which taxes were actu-
ally collected last year amounted to nearly AGO.
900, while this year it amounted to only $3,60O,-
900 This discrepancy is caused by a somewhat
reduced valuation of real estate, the temporary
absence of numbers of our citizens to the gold
fields of the North last summer and the consequent
stagnation ofbusiness. The delinquent list is in
creased, which difficulty will in part be ohyiated
hereafter by the adoption of some proposed a
meudments to the city Charter which are now
pending in the Legislature. If adopted, which it
Is hoped they will be- the Assessor and Collectors
duties and powers will be defined and increased.
The amount ofRevenue derived from all sources

MAYOR SINGERS INAUGURAL
MESSAGE.
Gentlemen Of tie Cornell;

Gentlemen Of tie Council
In obedience to the declared will of the citizens
of this city, lnow enter upon the duties of the
office of their Mayor.
For t cir suifrages which have placed me in
this position cannot feel otherwise than grateful
but at the same time must in justice to the cleo
tors of this city, well as to my popular rival for
the Office be permitted to say that do not hatter
myself that their choice was one of solely person
al preference
The people, in their primary political capacity,
for satisfactory to themselves, chose to in
troduce inio the election contest, in the name OF
the two great political parties of the State, ques
ton of difference on an important principle of
civil polity, which having no practical applicable
ty to onr municipal affairs, was evidently intend
ed as test higher than personal tavortsm. That
even for party purposes my fellow citizens should
have thought me worthy Of being the representa-
tves ofa principle which has its source in the
paramount fountain Of free government very nat
urally gave rise t. feelings of gratitude, for the
expression Of which l think the present not an
improper occasion.
In thus alluding 90 the cause of my elevation to
this position, have not been unmindful of the
simple but important fact that we all have been
elected, and are now entering upon our duties,
with view To the welfare of the whole commun-
ty. And in the faithful discharge of those duties
our acts, to enttle us the appreciation ofthose who
have conferred on us honor and place, ought to be
impartial and in accordance with justice, so that
their results will harmonic with that benign rule
of Just government which cOnfers the greatest
good on the greatest number.
From our immediate predecessors we receive
the government after having been administered
by them with marked ability, and with commen-
dable honesty and prudence.
The message of the retiring Mayor informs
us that with balance on hand at the commence
ment of his term Of office, Of $9,S09 rs, tax of
one dollar and twenty cents on each one hundred
dollars, with the other receipts failed to meet the
necessary expenses of the city government |
call your attention to this fact for the purpose of
directing your minds to a well informed c0nclu-
SION as TO what our taxation for the fiscal year
suouI9 oe. The economy and integrity Of the
t'9 1 au hnstration is in my opinion amply attest
Gu uy 'he iaet that the expenses Of the last year
were 'eh thousand dollars less than they were for
the year previous, Notwithstanding the many nee
essary improvements made by it., and its liberal
encouragement OF enterprises productive of the
clty interest and prosperity. That the practice
ofeconomy Is more difficult in public administra-
tons than in private life is demonstrated in the
experience ofall governments, whether State or
Municipal
The Indebtedness, estimated expenses and rev
enueAof the city are as follows:

pleads the cauE, of the employers:
"In manufacture as we'll as commerce, all is
guided by the unyarying laws of supply and
demand. If our manufacturers have a constant
and paying demand, the employees will be paid
at the highest rates; if they happen to be slow
and dull, the employees must consent to receive
lower rates. The capital employed in our man
ufaotures is all actual cash, and is regarded as
such None could dare to dishonor their obli-
cations, unless they would wish to stop their
works and machinery. nra
"For the last eighteen months their sales
have been greatly restricted by the embarrass-
ments of the West, and consequently, in order
to keep their works in operation, they have had
to observe retrenchment and caution, Mt the
same time guarding against throwing their
hands out Of employment. The prospects OF
the spring trade are brighter, though not yet
fully determined TO their satisfaction.
= 1--WE, therefore, are sorry to hear that before
the complete revival of trade and demand fol
manufactures arc determined and made certain,
that many of the pudders have struck. n
"This wo think unwise on their part; better
first that they should ascertain whether the
trade of the coming season will Justify II OF
not. The demand in the West may be only Q
b temporary Sne; If SO, then strikes may, result
in the loss of time and money 10 them.

be we can not tell, but we learn that the stock
now on hand is sufficient to supply all present
demands. We think that the movement is q
hasty one; that If the puddlers had waited till
the full opening Of spring trade, It would have
been better" ''''' '.-'''.' 'A
