! remain, your obedient servant,
JOHN ". ROCHE, City Comptroller.
1t affords me much pleasure to state that a
special levy of 5 per cent. on our present val
uatisn would nearly wipe out our entire debt.
AS our present prosperity is largely due to
good government and low taxes, believe the
present policy OF strict economy in all depart
ments should be carried out.
HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS.
l have great pleasure in recalling the fact
that during the six years of my connection
with the city government have been treated
with uniform courtesy by the heads of the diff
ferent departments, and also congratulate our
citizens on having so attentive, able and faith
full officers in charge of our public affairs.
In parting with you, gentlemen, will state
I have tried to do my duty in the responsible
position of mayor. have not endeavored to
please everybody, but have subserved the pub
lie interest to the best of my ability.
feel great pleasure in being succeeded by a
citizen Of the high character of Mr.. Rice.
His experience in legislation and intimate
local knowledge will greatly aid you in carry
ing on the government OF the city.
Referred to Committee of Ways and
| Means
Upon the conclusion of the foregoing,
Mayor Dawson introduced Mayor Elect
Rice, who delivered the following mes
sage:
| To the Honorable the President and Common
| Council of the City of st. Paul.
In assuming the duties devolving upon the
Mayor OF this city, feel that more thorough
knowledge of its affairs than l now possess
would better enable me 10 make, as the law
requires, suitable recommendations to your
honorable body, and also to discharge the
trusts appertaining to the Office.
At present l shall be able only 70 outline
briefly the views I entertain in respect to some
general matters that / think should receive
your attention.
The city is fast approaching to the proper
tons of large commercial, manufacturing
financial and cosmopolitan center, the limit:
to the growth of which it is impossible fol
any one to foreteIl, and in all your Legislation

and local improvements tina

l would recommend that four or five mounted
men be added; they can pass quickly from
place to place, and will be able to do more to
protect the thinly populated parts of the city

Mounted police have been tried in other cities

OUR STREETS AND SIDEWALKS.
have on former occasions called your at
tention to the necessity of adopting a better
plan of paving and grading our streets. St.
Paul is bountifully supplied with material for
matchmaking, and the granite quarries near
st. Cloud can furnish abundance of granite
for the so-called Belgian pavement. Wooden
pavements are going out of use in the Eastern
cities. Brick should be used generally for
sidewalks instead of wood.
LICENSES.
think all so-called beer licenses ought to be
abolished and that no license for malt or other
liquors should be issued for less than 500.
Circuses visiting orr city are literally pat
ronized. As they pitch their tents il the Sixth
ward they subject our bridge TO a great deal
of wear and tear. l think their license ought
to be increased from Si00 TO $500 for each day,
and that S25 additional ought TO be charged
for each side show.
They travel with complete outfit to board
themselves and neither patronize hotels nol
livery stables, and carry away nearly every
dollar they take in.
CHARTER COMPILATION.
The last compilation OF the charter and or
dinances was in 1875. Since then there has been
quite number of amendments to- the city
charter, and over one hundred new ordinance:
passed which have never been printed, except
in the official paper. In my opinion, il ha:
become a necessity for new compilation.
OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.,
The late sale of our per cent. bonds at {
premium of per cent. shows the fine credit
our city has attained. I refer you to the state
ment of the Comptroller for detailed state
ment of our debt:

PARkS.
The city has few small parks and open
spaces at the junction Of streets forming
trianges, which, if placed in charge
of a competent landscape gardener could be
made very attractive to citizens and visitors,
and be great blessing to children and invalids,
and the expense be so trifing that no one
| would think of Directing to it.
1t is a mistake to suppose these parks are
designed for the rich or prosperous merely;
they are for the decent people of all classes;
they give them pure air and promote health,
and'can be kept in perfect order with very lit
| tie cost. The people will soon adapt them
selves to their use and take pride in them and
