our village has prospered and mu-
nicipalmatters are in better shape
than they have been under reform
rule. The last silver board of trus-
tees found the village about 500
behind, and started in to cut this
debt down and at the same time
make necessary improvements with
out burdening the taxpayers. By
shutting down on paying costs in
frivolous suits in the police courts,
and a judicious distribution of labor
: on the streets, our little city pre-
sents a nice orderly appearance,
and our streets are well lighted at
night. All this was done under
Mayor Boyd's administration, and
the debt reduced to 5000 The pres
ent silver board, with decreased
rate of taxation are running our af-
fairs in business-like manner, and
every officer, from Mayor Purtill
down, is working for public good
They calculate TO wipe out the
balance of the old debt entirely,
equip the fire department in good
style and have the streets and al
leys in first class condition before
turning over the trust to their sue,
cessors. Under silver party rule
village warrants have raised in
value from IS cents to 95 cents on
