The Financial Statement

4s7tfs
The financial staten of the
city of Mansfield has been pre-
pared and is being published in
the Mansfield Mirror in order
that taxpayers of the city may
know the exact indebtedness at
the time the old officials retired
and the new mayor and council
took charge.
This indebtedness is not to be
considered il serious affair, for
the extra expense of building
street crossings to connect with
walks ordered in by the council,
and other necessary improve
mentS hayc caused this expense,
which was inevitable.
However. | believe it is only
right and just to the citizens of
Mansfield that this report be
published annually, also, that all
business at each council meeting,
all monies collected and all bills
allowed should be published.
also favor q revision of the
present city ordinances in
order to bring them into con.
formity with the state laws,
which are revised every ten
years. I also favor a strict en-.
forcement of all city ordinances
or the repeal of those that are
not enforced.
believe it will be possible,
with the hearty cooperation of
council and citizens, to continue
to do the necessary improving
and at the same time reduce the
present Indebtedness.
Let's all pull together for a
better Mansfield.

Special Report National Stock
Yards, H., May II, 1918.
1t is only a short time until
grass cattle will prove a decided
factor in the market, affecting
stock cattle q! all kinds as well
as common quality, fed steers or
butcher cattle. This will result
in lower values and holders of
such grades will exercise good
Judgment in marketing them as
soon as they possibly can. There
was a 2JG break on the common
to medium butcher stun and
Gamers today with stock cattle
% to SOC lower than last week :
close. While this cannot be laid
directly to grass stun at pres.
ent, it shows plainly what the
near future can bring forth.
Fat stun sold good today, with
steers selling strong and good
butcher stuff steady with last
weeks close. These will not
feel the competition of grasserS
and barring temporary breaks
will gradually get higher until
they reach that good by fall, we
have predicted.
Hog receipts 1000. At the
shippers and butchers
got few selected hogs at $3.50
to 81 %, but they quickly quit
when Chicago reports came low

Memorial Proclamation

We are too apt to live in the
world that is, and not enough in
the world that ought to be. We
are too apt to forget the dead
those who used to be. Not only
for the soldiers who fought the
good fight and in the thick of the
conflict disappeared, or have
since died, but for AL of our
friends and relatives who have
gone tpthat other shore such an
occasion as Memorial Day de
serves reverential attention.
Therefore |, as mayor of the
City of Mansfield, do request
all citizens to meet on May 30,
at 3 o'clock pm, on the public
square with Aags and fioWsR,S
and march behind the band II
the cemetery for the purpose Of
decorating the graves, for it is
this part Of life that Memorial
Day was ordained.
Arrangements are being made
for the old soldiers to ride in
jitney autos in the procession.
At , o'clock as the procession
moves towards the cemetery the
flag at the public fagpole will be
lowered to half mast and remain
SO till all return TO the park.
where there will be a band con
cert and speaking, to begin at
3 o'clock.
Rev. j w. Needham will de
liver the memorial address.

ent for these services and bring
all the flowers possible so that

I respectfully state that .op,

/ respectfully state that tou >
years ago Mansfield had very
few concrete walks, and today if
they we're all put in one cOntinu.
Gus line they would reach close
to miles and every one of them
are connected with good con.
crete crossings, although four
years ago we had but one con
crete crossing in the entire city
and that was 10 foot alley at the
residence of G. w. Freeman.
Four years ago the streets lead.
ing into the city from six direc
tions were in a very deplorable
condition, and we have built up
each of these streets with the
steam grader in good shape and
about all they will need hereaf-
ter is little dressing up, occa
sionally, therefore we have built
about 3 miles of street at a heavy
expense. We have replaced a
good number of the old wooden
culverts with tiling, resurveyed
Il good portion of the town, at
considerable expense, locating
the lines before requiring the
citizens to build their walks.
The hill back of the depot was
also cut down and the street a.
round the park was graded.
These are some of the princi.
pal results obtained after paying
out about $3.50 90 for lighting the
streets with electricity since
September 1912, and this is an
expense that has not been nee
essary previously, as we had the
privilege of wading the mud
through the dark about 30 years.
We took charge of the affairs
with n little indebtedness and
would been glad to have turned
it loose entirely out of debt, but
could not do so without leaving IA
lot of crossings unbuilt, and this
we could not afford to do as we
had assured all parties building
walks that they would be coupled
up with good crossings and this
is what kept US from pulling the
city through entirely out Of debt.
