aging the city affairs. They have made
some improvements in the past twelve
monihs of their incumbeney. They
gave the people the vpportunity by
vote (0 get a new public school build
ing. sewerage and water-works. They
forced the raiiroads to place flagmen
at the dangerous railroad crossings, to
protect the lives of the pedestriane.
They placed an iron railing arocund the
city park. They have added to the
number of lights on the streets. They
have partially macadamized the city
square, making a good surface and
doing away with so much mud, They
have put down stone walks at ull the
crossings intersecting the sidewalks on
the square and at crossings leading to
the churches, and they have done o
good deal of street repairing and street
work. They have been limited to the
usual financial resources, but have
done as well as anyone could do under
the circuimstances. We think it isdue
them to say this much of the city ad
ministration.
