MESSAGE
OF MAYOR
LACHMUND
MAYOR REVIEWS THE YEAR,
POINTS OFT THE VASTgAMOUNT
OF WORK DONE, AND MAKES
SOME PERTINENT SUGGES.
TIONS.

Following is the annual address of
Mayor Lachmund, delivered at the
council meeting last night:
Pursuant with the charter it is in
cumbent upon me to. submit an an
nual message to this body
The year just euded has been
memorable one, in fact the greatest
in the history of our city. 1t has
been year of achievements and our
efforts should, be directed towards
making the year of 1912 still more
successful.
Never in the history Of Salem has
prosperity been so widespread and
lfar-reaching. Kind Providence has
smiled upon us from every angle and
we would be remiss in our duty If
our efforts and energies were not di-
rected towards making the year to
come one of still greater deeds.
When the present administration
went into Office, policy of extended
municipal improvements for Great
er Salem had already been inaugur-
ated which was fathered and car
ried to most successful conclusion,
thanks to the splendid and unselfish
efforts of the different members Of
this honorable body. Each and every
member is entitled to the thanks and
the appreciation of a critical public
and it is therefore unnecessary to
single out any special services rem
dered by any particular committee as
there is enough praise for everyone.
In my first message to this body, I
recommended number Of impor-
tant matters for adoption, many of
which have been enacted, but in
growing and thriving city, new sub
jects require our consideration and
take this opportunity of directing
your attention to a number which
deem essential to the welfare of, the
whole community.
Streets.
One hundred eighty-f1ve thousand,
seven hundred sixty-seven square
yards of hard surface pavement, in
volving the expenditure of $4O7,679
have been laid throughout the city
during 1911 and 80 miles of sewers
lhave been constructed at cost Of
1925, ,40S. making inj all grand total
of $737 ,OS7. Who can gainsay that
this enormous amount of mony has
not been judiciously and honestly eX-
Ipended? Nothing has done more to
lift Salem from the mire in which it
has dwelt for so many years, moth
ling has done more to make Salem
what it is today, and nothing can do
more to make Salem what 1t is and
always will be, the second city in the
state, than hard surface pavements
and improved sanitary conditions.
There was a time when municipal
improvements of this acharacter were
difficult of accomplishment, but that
Iour charter creating competition in
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1912-01-03


without a tremor, without a mos
mentary halt, the proceedings being
like clockwork, the new council last
night ratified the appointments made
by the members in caucus just before
the first of the year. Councilman
Lafky ground out the nominations,
and they were hardly put by the
mayor before Recorder Elgin declared
them elected.
The retiring officers are Grant Cor
by, city attorney, and Amos Long,
sanitary inspector. The rest of the
list are reflections.
City Attorney Talks.
After the election of the officers
Mayor Lachmund called upon the new
city attorney for a talk. Mr.. Page
was formerly manager of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company, and
he availed himself of the opportunity,
after thanking the members for con-
ferring the office upon him, to declare
that he was in no way connected now,
with the corporation. After entering
the law business, he stated, he did
some work for the corporation, but it
was matters which were pending when
he resigned, and he received no addi-
tional compensation for it. He was
free, he declared to give his whole
service as faithfully and Loyalty to
the city as he had given them to the
corporation.
Sanitary Inspector McCracken also
made short talk, saying he was
grateful for the honor of being made
sanitary inspector, and asserting that
he would discharge all the duties per-
tanning to the office faithfully and
impartially, and to the best of his
ability.
Firemen Appointed.
Upon the recommendation of Chief
Savage, the following were appointed
members of the fire department: Driv-
ers, A. H. Phillips. Peter Graber Ev-
erett Fisher and Andrew Mcfarland.
Engineers, Blake Berk and Fred An
derson. Chemical engineers. VIM.

At the close of Veeders's direct
testimony, Special Government Pros
ecutor Wilkerson promised that the
next witness would prove the final
absorption of the statistical bureau
through which the packers worked
by the National Packing company.
When veeder's cross-examination
began he said in answer to the first
question asked:
Never during the years l was con-
nected with the conferences of the
packers did they attempt to fix the
prices of any product"
Later. however, he qualified the
statement by adding:

Sam Howard, Formerly Of Mex

Cecil NJ. Basket in the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat few days
ago writes as follows concerning
s. s. Howard, formerly the Elk
1t" man in Mexico:
Among the out-of-town re-
ports received this week which
class are always acceptable, is
one from Sam S. Howard, a
business man in Portland, Mo-,
which town lies in the southern
edge of Galloway county on the
Missouri River. Sam. who is
one of the Understanding
creatures in all Missouri, will
occasionally slip out to fish and
in his letter he says: I'm re-
gard to the game there are quite
a few squirrels this year, but
not as many as last year. Not
many quail were Matched and
there are not as many doves as
| have seen at times. The fish
ing is not as good as it might
be. They are not catching
many bass or crappie. Bulk of
the fish here are buffalo, carp
and cat. They catch some
here that will weigh from 10 to
30 pounds and one other thing
| have noticed is that there are
mot as many rabbits as last year.
The people here have quite II
lot of sport in winter running
and catching foxes. We have
two wolves here for some time,
and they have killed lots of
sheep. People made up purse
of $25 for each wolf, to be given
to any one that would kill them.
They got one of them just late
ly. Oh, yes; | came near for
getting something; | have a
pond here that has eighty
seven frogs to the square inch
in it, and you don't have to
raise them; they just happen.
