This is our answer to the charge that the
market house has been es@Iosing institution
Your committee, prompted by desire to
further economic, have other matters I'M
der consideration in relation thereto, which
will be reported to your honorable body at
an early day.
AS to the charge so industriously made as
to the market house being losing institu-
ton, that it was an elephant on the city, etc,
we call attention to the fact of its being
prime factor in the rebuilding and retention
of the state capitol in the city and the result
ing benefit to the material interests of our
own citizens, together with the impetus
given to surrounding permanent buildings
and large increase in assessabe property for
taxation purposes, in fact large and impor-
tant element to the general welfare and
prosperity Of the whole city, the extent of
which cannot be estimated in dollars and
cents. 1t should be, remembered that the
new market house is no exception to the
early history; nearly all new buildings,
whether private or public, for the first few
years of their existence they do not yield
good marketable return for
the actual cost of the same.
The recommendation of the Chamber of
Commerce in relation to the management of
the market by ordinance is anticipated if the
Committee would take the trouble to read the
city ordinances.
Their advice also that the furnishing the
labor of heating the building be let by con-
tract, and citing the offer of one j. D.
Thomas to perform those services for the
sum of 1880 per year is fully met by the
following, showing that VIM. Thomas offer
is no better than what the city is and has
been really paying for those services.
Salary of Engineer one year ...........S 900 90
Salary OF Fireman six months. ......... 40 90
Salary of night fireman three months. 135 90
$1,555 90
and included in this expenditure is $4,000
plumbing work performed by the engineer
and fireman which otherwise would have to
be paid for.
