No Money Borrowed by Major Butler.
HOW HIS ADMINISTRATION RE-
DUCED THE CITY DEBT.


In lS7576, the year of Mayor Richardson's
administration, Sill, ,OO0 was borrowed to pay
railroad interest, and the next year $3.50, 600.
The last year not cent was borrowed for any
purpose, or to nay any interest.
The year 1S77,7S, Mayor Buffers administra-
tion reduced the city debt $538,SOO, and this
Vt ar it will be reduced 100000 more. The
railroad interest Of $3.50, 900 has also been paid
without borrowing, thus saving an indebted'
ness of $500, 900 to the city in two years, which
added to the $73S,OOo, makes over $1,O0O,OoO
which would have been added to the city debt
If these savings had not been made.
Every current bill against the city will be
paid at the close Of the municipal year, and no
floating debt of any kind left. There will be
$11O 800 OF bonds, falling due this year, paid
without renewal, and there will be $4,000 at
least added to the sinking fund, which, added
to the $4,000 put into the sinking fund last
year, will make $160.0O0.
In the face of these facts, is not the CRY of
reform ant retrenchment, on the part of DEM
ocrats and Greenbackers, the broadcast bur
lesque and can any Taxpayer, no matter what
his politics, afford to exchange the careful ad-
ministration which will bs carried out by Will
liam Senter and the Republican city govern
ment to be voted for today, for George Walker
and coalition greedy for the spoils of office?

SUNDAY LECTURES ON TEMPERANCE

SUNDAY LECIURES VN TEMP PEEAkCE.
Arcaua Lodge Of Good rempiars recently ap-
pointed committee to request every clergy
man in the city to preach on temperance at
such times as might be found convenient.
Nearly every one has cordially consented. The
first of these services was delivered on Sunday,
February %. by Rev. Mr.. Clark in the Method
ist Church on Pine street, of which be is pestor.
Last Sunday afternooa Rev. Mr.. Ladd preached
in his church tMethodist) on Congress street
The audiences iI both these churches were very
large, aud the discourses Were replete with elo-
quent words, striking illustrations and strong
arguments. The movement will do good, it
will present to the people the best thoughts of
cur ablest thinkers on this great question.
ST. LAWRENCE STREET CHURCH.
Rev. MIR. Adams, Secretary of the Maine
Missionary Society, aud Rev. Adison Blsnch.
ard, the Maine Missionary, spoke for the work
of the above named society yesterday afternoon
at the St. Lawrence st. church. With the aid
of a map they traced their travels and showed
the locality of the different missionary
churches. In 1899 there were missionaries
sent into this fed by the American Home Mis-
sionsry Society. From 1893 to 1927 the Home
Missionary Society of New York employed a
number of missionaries to labor here In 1923
the Maine Missionary Society was formed. and
10 1883 took charge of the work in Maine
There are now AZ ministers, lsbosiug with 81
churches and 10 stations, who receive aid from
this society. Tue missionaries say Name is a
good field for their work, which is in a nrosusr
Gus condition. At the close of the service a

Figures Don't Lie.
SOME UNANsWERABLE STATS.
TICS FOR TIE DEMOCRATs
AND GREENBACKERs.
Read Them Before You Vote.

The Democrats and Gree enbackers are pleased
10 talk about retrenchment and reform. Let ua
compare some of the fgares of Mayor Richard
son's-ths last Democratic administration
with Mayor Batler's term of office
In the matter of streets, sidewalks and bridg
es there are some strong proofs of the superb
ority of the republicans over the Democrats, as
follows:
1s75-76 1s17.7e.
Richardson. ,75I Al Butler. S55, ,037 07
A DIFF renee 10 favor of the Republicans of
S4l, l,713.4. This year 1889, there was a diff
ference of $42. .047. so in favor of the Rspubli-
cans.
In the department of public buildings the
following comparison is made:
p,o. ls7e-76. 1s77-7s.
An enormous difference in favor of the Re-
puolicans of $13,742.42. And yet with these
figures the Democrats talk of reform and re-
trenchment.
Let us look at the drains and sewers. Under
Mr.. Richardson's Democratic administration
$l4,3 % were expended. Under MIR. Butler
Republican govern d ent less than $4,000 were
spent the past year.
The fire department under Richardson in
1S75-76 cost 500, ,l10.41. During the past year
under Mayor Butler the expense has been kept
within an appropriation of $4,000.
Mayor Richardson's Overseers of the Poor re-
auired $29,943 86 in 1876, and this year but
$4,000 were required and but $4,000 really
spent
The salaries about which our Democratic and
Greenback contemporaries howl amounted to
$3O,829.9S in the age of retrenchment and re.
form under Mayor Richardson, and less than
$27,O GOO this year under Mayor Butler, and that
too with salaries running up to April 1st.
Letmen ponder and reflect on these figures
and then decide whether they can afford to cast
vote for Mr.. Walker and the Kangaroo
ticket, or whether they had better vote for that
careful business man, William Ssnter.

SPLIT TICKETS.

The Democrats will made desperate efforts to
carry majority of the City Council. By any
fair means they know this is impossible, and
therefore they will revolt to foul. Split tickets
will be abundant and Republicans will be in.
weighed, if possible, into voting for Democratic
aldermen and councilmep. To succeed in this
the Democrats will depend on the carelessress
OF Republicans. The Republicans can easily
defeat their designs by carefully examining
their ticket before throwing it.
