tied opportunity to acquire a knowledge of
the duties of the Office by actual participation
in the affairs of the city. Not having been
in position to make a special examination
of the affairs since the election took place.
YOU will not expect me to address YOU on th
occasion at very great length, or with so much
detail as | otherwise might.

low citizens. Having had no opportunity 10
make an accurate examination of the financial
condition of the city. | must refer Won to
those reports for the details of the several de-
partments.
! WILL however. congratulate YOU and our
constituents. that the indebtedness of our
CITY is very much less. in proportion to our

and economy with which the affairs of the
city have been conducted heretofore. twill
be my pleasure to cooperate with YOU in all
your past efforts to avoid unnecessary and

every reason to believe that the expenditures
have been well and economically admins
tered. and that the city farm has been iu
diciously cultivated and managed. At the
same time, no doubt is entertained that the
deserving poor have had their wants carefully
and suitably supplied. | trust Won will use
your efforts that this shall be done during
the ensuing year, equally avoiding undue
parsimonv and needless extravaganza.
Liberal sums of money have been expended
on the cit: highways for a number of wears
past. which resulted in great and
marked improvements in MANY parts of the
city. Ii is TO be hoped that this department,

age the Democracy labor under, is their unfortu-
