Mayor Merchants Address.

address in full
GExTLEMEN OF THE CITY COUNCIL: In
accordance with our city charter, and by
authority of cur citizens, EXPIRE ssed by their
ballots one week ago, we assemble here
this morning for the purpose of taking the
oaths of our respective fiic,s, to perfect
the organization of this city govern ment,
and assume the duties and responsibilities
incumbent upon us as representative of the
citiz Ems of Hallowtll. l trust we come here
fully real ziug the important duties before
US. 1t is not Necessary for me to remind
you of the solemn obligations we lave this
day taken upon ourselves, for | assume We
have no other motive or desire, than to act
conscieLtiously and manfully upon all ques-
tons concerning the municipal affairs OF
our city the coming year. The Offices to
hich we have been elected are honorable,
and will reflect credit upon uiselves only
when we rise above party feeling, petty
prejudices and devote ourselves to the in
terest and welfare of our city.
Among the first and most important du-
ties which will engage your attention will
be the choice of eff GERS or heads of the va
u lus departments. And right here desire
to add word of caution. In making
changes, satisfy yourselves first, that a
change is desirable; that it is for the best
inter. st of the city; choose men who are
qualified to discharge the duties of their
Offices acceptsbly, and in manner that will
me- ct the approval of our citizens. If per-
chance, an unworthy or inc mpetenu can
didate should be elected to an office of
trust and responsibility, do not hesitate,
after satisfying yourselves of this fact, to
demand his or her resignation.
OF the several departments to which l
desire to call your attention this morning,
the one pertaining to our finances may
properly be considered first. According to
a statement furnished by our efficient city
treasurer, the resources and Liabilities of
our city are as follows:
Funded debt, s9i,toO 90
Cemetery Fund, 27l 30
Drummer Income FUND, III 80
Balance of une pended appropriate on, 1856 Oh
Total liabilities. s2}, 1902 50

Net indebtedness,
Net indebt, dness 1908,
Increased dur rg ..S93.

To offset this increase. we have the new
schOolhouse at Loudon Hill, which was
built the past year at an expense of $3.50
for which no provision was made IN the az
preparation. Improvements upon our city
farm and buildings to the ex'ent of at
least 5000 should also be considered, and
according to the farm inventory there is
unsold hay to the amount of S400. De-
duc,ing the net increased Indebtedness from
the above items we have, what would Or
dinarily show, respectable balance in IA
vor of the city.
By authority of the last CITY government
there has been issued SIS 900 in four per
cent. bonds refunding $40 800 of the cit, .
indie btsdness, leaving $500 in five per cent,
bonds, not yet exchanged, for which pro-
vision for payment has been made in the
sinking fund. The if -renc' in the
amount of bonds issued and amount re-
funded is accounted for in the cost of the
new ,schoolhouse and the amount credited
the sinking fund. The refunding act will
not only result in saving of interest and
placing the total bonded Indebtedness of
the city upon four per cent. basis, but
will relieve the city, for several years, of
making provision for maturing Obligations
on account OF the city 0eot.
With one or two exceptions the depart
ments have been kept within their respec-
tive appropriations, and all current liabili-
ties have been provided for-a most salts
factory condition of our city finances.
Schools.
The members of our school board and
our corps of teachers have lsbored earnest
~, the past year, and through their efforts
excellent results have been accomplished in
every department of our school work.
The school buildings are in good repair,
with the exception of one or two needing
painting. The new hcoihouse at Loudon
Hill, equipped with modern school furnish
ings, gives to the city building sufficiently
large to accommodate the scholars from
that part of the city.
The new law relating to abolishing school
districts makes radical change in the super
vision Of schools. quote from circular
of information issued by our own State
superinte ndent of schools relative to the
law, the following: at puts the general
oversight and management of all school af-
fairs in charge of a school board, and the
special oversight and management in charge
of q supervisor or superintendent who is to
be practically the executive officer of such
board, performing al save certain specially
prescribed duties under the boards author
ity and direction" 1t will be seen that this
law contemplates the adjustment of the
office of superintendent of school buildings,
~ the care of all school property is vested
in the school committee or supervisor.
