Since the Inauguration of the
street commissioner system last
year, 1t has fallen to my lot to have
charge of the street department
Everything has not been done that
can and win be done In my DEPART
ment, but 1t takes time for all
things and the better and greater
the work the longer it takes to per-
feet it. This applies to street work.
There is nothing that comes so close
to the citizens as the street question.
and believe that good streets will be
the greatest advertisement our city
can have. This is essentially a citv
OF homes. and until our resources are
developed and factories established
these will be our greatest force, for
men having the means to retire from
business are not going to come here
unless the surroundings are pleas
ant although our climate is grand
and our school facilities are unex-
celled. This is the city policy.
Looking at the street question
from an economical side, I would call
attention to the cost of maintaining
the street department during the
months of January, February
March and April Of last year-these
were among the last four months the
street committee had charge of the
street work-and those of the same
four months of this year. Last year
during those months the costs OF
maintenance were $2366.66, ant
this year for the same time they
were only $1267.04. I believe that
these are representative months BY
which comparisons can be made, ant
the figures speak for themselves, ant
! have no comment to make. l believe
that economical management car
keep these expenditures within &
reasonable radius.
Another thing that might interes
