All appropfiatdonb ae estimated by the common council including spe-i cia1 appropriation of $4,5U0 for the pur- chase Of stone crusher and road roller. were voted at the adjourned an- nual city meeting held in Hammond hall Monday evening.
 Judge l.. H. Fuller was chairmah at the meeting and City Clerk F. w. Seward was clerk. Not many more than a score of the electors of the city were present. City treasurer. $125; city court, $1, ,50o; council chamber, $200; city clerks of flee, $825; fuel and light $350; city janitor. $200; highway department, $4000; fire department, $5.200; street 900; general expenses, $6,S0G; total $27,20O.
 There was some discussion relative to appropriating the $4,500 asked for road building machinery, the proposi- ton being opposed by c. E. Child, who believed 1t would be cheaper for the city to hire a road roller in preference to buying one, and also that it would prove economical to buy stone for the street work by the ton rather than to crush 1t with city1owned machinery
 Mir. Child figured that the city would save about $1.75 by hiring g roller and buying stone. He said that the roller of the town of Thompson could be hired at a cost of s10 day. Crushed stone can be had for $1.30 a ton. He estimated the expense to the city of keeping roller and erusher as s200 . year interest charges. also tbat s400 year must be charged off the value of this machinery each year for depre- citation in it's value. The cost of coal, oil and water and a man to operate the roller Mir. Cfuds estimated at s5 u day for approximately thirty days each @<aov- rvbiah xt,o.sId 4dd dfdfhcr &1En fo the fixed expense following the pur- chase of such machinery a total ex- pense of $750 each twelve months for interest, depreciation and operating charges.
 On the other hand. he estimated that the Thompson roller could be hired for thirty days at $1o day. $500; that the coal, oil and water cost for that period, at the rate of S2.50 day, would be $75, and that 150 tons of crushed rock at $1.30 8 ton could be purchased fof $195, total of s57o fixed cost per year.
 Alderman Hawkins advocated the purchase of erusher and roller, saying that they were required and that with them the city could pfoceed to do con- structiOn work of a permanent nature on it's highways, whereas much of what has been done in the past has been of temporary nature. He thought 1t would be a better proposition to buy rather than hire, for if the city bought t1ie city could have it's machinery to use when 1t wished to use it.
 To Buy crusher and Roller,
 There was considerable further dis cussior. the meeting finally voting to make the appropriation and buy the crusher and roller.
 Tax of f-2 Mills. A tax of 8 a1-2 mills was voted for the ensuing year. 2 The exact figures of the grand list were not available fo1 presentation at the meeting, but the city's property value is now in excess of $3,000.O00
 The meeting also voted to authorize ] the common ceuncil to borrow suff1- kcient sum of money to meet the cur rent expenses of the city until the tax r es are collected
