Anticipating these report, I will aay
we may heartily congratulate ourrelves
on our success, lue great care aud
rcnuoiuy practlcsd lu the mairngsuieut
of tbe city'a allalra has euabled you to
make a favorable ehowlug.
We have met every obligation which
the city baaeutered Into; we have paid
otlleera their salaries; kept up the atreeta;
maintained a city jail; provided the
alwolute ucces-ltlra of the tire depart
ment, and award -d expensive badge to
aeverai linriorav Crimen; pall the full

aud likewise paid a few hundred dollars
tor improvements on t lie same at the out
let to tbe river; paid rente for the city
hull, hose bouses, aud hiwk and-ladder

I am happy to aay the city to day doe
not owe a u lor auylhlng Incurred
during this a lmiuistratlon, so far, uuder
lb Ualeman law, which la not or cannot
be paid oat of the fund now In the
treasury. And after paying ail Interest
due by the city, and having made provi
sion for all the different eluklng funds
which were established for the ultimate
liquidation of our city bands, we shall
still have a very respectable balance left
In our treasury.
We have met every neceesary contin
gent, and made some improvements. U'lt
lUere Is ine thing winch might and
should have been dune in the past year,
which was neglected the completion of
our electric tire alarm system. It is to
be hoped, however, that the council will
ppeedily act In this matter; aud also try
to make arrangements tor the lighting
of our streets at night, as soon as It shall
become apparent that the funds avail
able for this current year will
Iiermlt of Its being done, of all of which
have no reasonable doubt.
1 sincerely hope that the new year
upon which we are now entering may
bring to the city of Albuquerque still
greater prosperity.
