All reasonable appropriations, looking to the

proper support of our beneficent, charitable
and correctional institutions, for the great
cause of education, for the aid and care of the
unfortunate, for the relief of the old soldier
and his dependents, and for other necessary
public purposes, will meet with a hearty and
approving response from our people, for they
have always willingly and cheerfully responded
to every necessary call.

majesties, the aldermen and German
