The outstanding indebtedness of the city at the present time aomunts to 2.30S. When the present council came into office the city was some thing like $45,OOO in debt. Today the sum of $19,OOO is in the current expense fund of the city and that amount will pay the municipal bills up to the end of the present councils term.
 To sum the whole matter up. the present council has reduced the city debt by the sum of $32.614.
 These figures are eloquent testimony to the ability and integrity of the men who form the government of this mu- nicipality at the present time
