A Statement Of 81.
Actual Facts

Actual Facts
To The EDITOR:
In as much as there has been
considerable talk and argument
as to the financial condition of
our town both in the past and
present, ! feel it my duty as
chairman of the present board of
trustees to give a few words of
explanation as I hold myself
equally responsible with the
board for any improvement and
expenditure that have been made.
The statment has been made that
the present board are running
the town in debt, and some peo-
pie have gone so far as to say we
are bankrupting the town. If
wearebankrupting every
National Bank in the United
States is insolvent and a bank
rupt. and we know that this is
not so. Going back to last year
1903 the VillageTreasurerreport-
ed cash on hand $l0o.OO. His
last report 1904 shows cash ON
$3.50. 33. This is a gain over
previous board. The outstand-
ing indebtedness Of our City at
present is a trifle less than $500,
and in addition to this we have
spent 1898. go for three Cement
Crossings, one alley Five Corners
106ft curb and gutter and grad
ing. The following is a statment
of the work done by the Occident-
al Stone Company.
crossings 1892 each s218.75
l alley 1874 yds.... $3.50. $3.50
S corners 57.4 yds $3.50
each...... .......... 6I.49
Curb and gutter around
corners and alley 106 TT. 80. $3.50
Grading and work on
Cistern. lilo
Total $685.
In addition to this the town
gets the benefit of having grades
established all over the City free
Of charge and grade sheet and
blue print will be made and filed
so that any one putting up a build
ing or side walks will know where
to buildit other-wise'the cost of
surveying and establishing
grades might be from one to two
hundred dollars.
The present standing Of the
City's financial condition is as
follows:
LIABILITIES
Outstanding indebted
ness from old board. IS 10000
Cement work as above
statement ........... 393.64
Bill for three arch Nights $3.50
Balance which will be
left on hand if no more
money is expended. 1886
S 100000
RESOURCES
Tax levy 10000
Money to be collected on
lights in residence dis
trict.. ............... 10000
S1600.O0
You will readily see from the
above statement that the board
after paying up $4,000 Of old
debts and paying for our new
crossings and lights, it will still
have over $500 left in treasury
to make other improvements or
use as they deem best. Last
year the board levied $1200.0O
taxes and collected $4,000 so
Judging from past years we will
get within a few dollars OF the
present levy.
I have also heard it rumored
that the present town board have
received a bride from Mr.. W. M.
Fox, representing the Occidental
Stone Co. All I have to say to
this is that I will give $4,000 re-
ward for evidence and proof of
any responsible herson making
this statement.
Respectfully,
A. T. WARD.
