Real cost for the proposed s25O,O0O bonds
for 30 years.
Aid. Lockwood should have informed
your humble taxpayers how much interest
the city made since rs on the approximate
which would be in sinking fund amount
of s1O2, $40 sinking fund on our bonded
debt of sl.163. 5OO-S60, OOO-Sl ,223. $40 and
Alderman Lockwood would have seen
that instead of making any profits with
the amount not even the principal of the
sinking fund Is there.
On the 1st of March. 1892, there was In
the sinking fund SIT, l26.43 and refunding
the $4,000, which was to be sold at pres
ent to replace in this fund, would make
ST. l26 AZ, a shortage of about 10000.
This Alderman ,Lockwood'S tinancier-
ing will not do.
Strange that the farsighted Alderman
didnOt see that by proper economy, saw
ing SIS, 900 for one year and investing that
amount at 3 per cent p. a., the city could
make in 30 years St41, $50 and could follow
pay as you go policy.
Section 43 says also: No debt shall be
created for the payment whereof such
bonds are issued. until such bonds have
been disposed Of and the proceeds thereof
paid into the city treasury, and when any
bonds are issued by the city a fund shall
be provided to pay the interest and per
cent as such.'' AT. WULFF.
