At the’beginning of onr term of of
fice work had begun on the new City
Hall. The old City Hail had been torn
away and the foundation for the new
building had been laid, and suitable and
beautiful plans had been secured by
the former administration. However
practically the entire responsipilitj for
the construction of the building has
rested upon us.
As' tin re w* s no financial provision
for the pay nont ot the erection, it be-
cam« necessary at the beginning of the
year to devise a wav for raising money
for this .i n imsc. There was consider
able difficulty sttaohed to this account
of the money panic which existed
throughout the country.
However, the money was finally se
cured and the bui din/ was completed
in the early summer. Th<- material used
m the erection of this public building is
j of the highest grade, while the work
manship is first class in every respect.
The entiro cost of construction has been
$13,031.35. rt proper and legal voucher
for everv item of expense is now on
file in the offioe of the City Clerk and
Treasurer.
