''From a financial point of view the city's
future was never brighter. We are having an
economical. government and the financial pol
icy being pursued is sure to be followed with
beneficial results. Our Board of Finance is
not now welded to any bank, and in future
the city win use its own money by borrow
ing from one account and placing it to the
credit of another This will prevent the
borrowing OF money from banks ON tempo
rary loan bonds, with the result that the
money which would have been paid out as
interest on such temporary loans will re-
main in the city's treasury. Our bonds are
being redeemed as fast as possible, where it
is practicable. Where it has been impossi-
bic to redeem, the bonds, which have been
drawing seven per cent. interest are being
paid off with the proceeds of five per cents.
Every two per cent. of interest off
large sums helps and helps a
good deal. Another encouraging thing is
that our bonds are not as widely distributed
as they used to be. They are held in big
bulks by bankers 1t will be pleasing to
property owners to know that our bonds are
in great demand They are considered first
class securities in the financial world. Our
5 per cents are eagerly sought after. Our
527 on batch of $500, 900, IS an illustration
of how our bonds are quoted 1t will not be
very long, at the present rate of progress be-
ing made by the city, before our bonds VIII
be fioated at AZ per cent. ears ago our
bonds bearing 4 per cent. were sold at below
par A drop from per cent to AZ or 5 is
something of which all should be proud.

(PaStOf OF the IaDerndeie.J
I'm my opinion Jersey City is destined to
have a prosperous future. While property
here has in the last few years deprecated
very rapidly in value, it is on the rise again.
This is particularly true of property on the
Heights which is experiencing boom which
will eventually spread to other parts of the
city Now that the Heights, through the
facilities afforded by rapid transit can be
reached in twenty three minutes from the
City Hall, New York, combined with such
other advantages as fresh healthful air, 1t Is
a very desirable place for residences. Fro
perty there will soon be in great demand, as
