or association.
In looking over the record of the out :
going administration. / find very credit
able and encouraging state OF affairs. There
appears 10 be q balance on hand Of $l1 ,773.-
IA. composed Of Return Rolls, and about
$4,000 cash OF this balance Il will take
about $4,000 TO pay for the new Ninth street
bridge now under construction. II will
also require about $l4. 900 10 pay for the
pavement under contract 10 Messrs Dewey
q Widner.
Thus II will be seen that in order TO
meet the payment of the improvement
contracts now on hand, II will be Lecessary
TO raise sum not less than $1,000.
TAXATION.
The question OF taxation Is the one of
paramount importance 10 both tho people
and the peoples servants. II perpetuates
good government when intelligently ada
ministered; and no government can either
be good or intelligent that overlooks its
importance. Let us bear In mind that the
equity OF taxation consists In ils being
equally burdensome. Taxes generally
speaking, ere always considered burden
some, and therefore, we should do all with
IN our power to reduce them ms far as
profitable, keeping In mind, however.
that the interests Of the city should not
suffer.
SIDEWALKS.
l am OF the opinion that our sidewalks
should be built by the city and paid for
out OF the general street and sewar fund,
the same as paving and sewerage. The
reason for this Is obvious. Sidewalks are
Inc az I m Of ~,
lie necessity and improvement, rs paving
When IL il left 10 the individual property
owner to build and repair his own side
walk. the large expense oftimes makes him
careless of its condition. thus endangering
the lives and limbs of pedestrians, and
openly inviting damage suits against the
city. Whereas, If the city had charge OF
the sidewalks the expense to the individual
would not only be less burdensome, but
the walks would be kept in good repair
and much expensive litigation averted, OF
course this refers TO plank walks only.
SEWERAGE
The sewerage of our city IL in fairly
good condition at the present time. and
believe in keeping IL so. II is matter of
vital importance 10 the general welfare
and health of the people. Bad sewerage
invites pestilential epidemics and diseases
of all sorts, Carelessness and negligence
in this important department. OF our in
ternal affairs is one of the worst recon.
mendations that city can receive.
THE COW QUESTION
This question has been agitated by the
press and people of the city quite vigof-
ously during the past year. | would re-
commend that you give the question, as TO
whether the cows should run at large,
your careful attention, and make such
legislation'upon the subject as you deem
prudent to subserve the best interests OF
the people, My opinion Is that q COW
should have no more liberties than good
citizen.

Mr. Oliver, Peoples Theatre: One night
last winter | found the characteristic boot
black lowering about the steam heater in the
entrance to the theatre. 1t was one of the
coolest nights of the winter The boy was
ragged. | don't know what overcame me,
but thought to myself: snow here is a boy
WHO'S really deserving" almost tied a string
to this thought the moment 1t passed across
my mind, but didn't l asked him his name
and where he lived. He answered me quite
satisfactorily asked him if he thought his
mother would worry about him If he went in
and saw the show. He didn't think she would.
He said he was used to staying out late So
took him and gave him seat in the parquet.
don't believe he ever had seat down stairs
in his life before. went away and thought
no more about what had done. A few days
after l was told that a boy down stairs was
asking for some one and that answered the
description. / came near sending down
word that l had no time to fool away with a
boy, but didn't. l went below and found
my waif at the door. He had evidently been
gotten up for the occasion. His face was
clean and he had on necktie made of faded
blue ribbon. He said he had a present for
me. This rather amused me.
II told my mudder wat you done for me, "
he said, sand she said as how must bring
you dis and to tell you dat she made it wild
her own hands, She makes dat stuff to sell,
sir. l hope you won't trow it away"
opened the bundle and found it contained
about two pounds of home made molasses
candy. You ought to have seen that boys
face brighten when l told him l would take
the candy.
You'll find it good, he said. "My mudder
made it, and if you is afraid it amt good I'll
bite off some to show you, Chicago Times.
