treasurer's statement, which ap.
pears elsewhere in this paper,
the city is in mighty good condi'
ton financially. All of the diff
ferent funds are in very healthy
condition, and will enable the
city to do considerable improving,
and that is what the people want,
Along this line we want to make
an explanation. A great many
people think the building of side
walks is working a hardship on
the city. Those people are moi
we'll informed. The building Of
sidewalks is in no sense a burden
on the city. The walks are paid
for by the owners of the property
against which the walks are
built. Of all the wslks built last
fall, only two pieces had to BIZ
certified up for taxes. It is much
cheaper to pay for your walk as
soon as it is completed, even il
you have to borrow the money tt
do it, for if you do not pay for il
when completed, a penalty of q
per cent is added to the original
cost. All the city is out in the
building of walks is in the max
ing of crossings connecting the
walks. We trust this explana'
ton will satisfy the minds of a
few people who are trying tc
have fits. In the meantime, let's
build more walks.
