Having come Into poteealoa of In formation ?ht partlea, ixloua for my defeat, ar circulating' reports that tho city' debt haa been greatly In creased during the all yeara that I have acted aa chairman t tho Fi nance Committee, tn Juatico to my self and aa a source of Information to the clt:zna of Oregon City, at my augreatlon, the City Treasurer, has prepared the following report: Oregon City, Oregon. December 2, 1911. To Whom It May Concern: Thla Is to certify that I have ex amined the Warrant Register of the city of Oregon City, and find That on December 14th. 190S, there were paid Gneral Fund Warrants en dorsed prior to July 2nd, 1903. That on October 10th. 1911, there were paiu General Fund Warrants en dorsed pHor to November 25th, 1910, and That on December 14th. 1906, there were ld Road Fund Warrants en dorsed prior to October 4th. 1904. That on October ISth. 191L there wei paid Road Fund Warrants en dorsed prior to August 6th. 1910, ex cepting Warrants Noe. 157J and 1586 for $41 and $250.00 respectively, and That on December 2nd, 1911. there ahows an Indebtednesa of $547723 againai Permanent ' Street Improve ment Funu. Thla certificate la given at tho re quest of Mr. William Andreaen. M". D. LATOURETTE. Treasurer of the city of Oregon City. Subscribed and aworn to before me thla 2nd day of December. 11L -L1VY 8TIPP. Notary Public for 8tate of Oregon. In explanation of the above report, I wish to say that at the time when I was appointed to the office of chair man of the Finance Committee, the lndebtedneaa of the General Fund waa In arrears, making It nectaaary to pay Interest from July 2nd, 1903 to Decem ber 14. 1905, a period of tins of two years, five months, twelr daya. On October 10. 1911. the time waa reduced to ten 'montha, fifteen day. The condition of the lndebtedneaa of the Road Fund waa aim liar to that of the General Fund, and tho period of time of Interest was two yeara, two months, ten day. On October 18. 1911, th lengtn of time wa reduced to one year, two months, thirteen day. - Ton will note by the above report that the city' present total Indebted nens against the Permanent 8treet Fund Is $5,477.23. It Is evident that this Is a remarkable showing, since this fund Is need exclusively for the payment of the city'a aharo on all street Improvements, especially when you take Into consideration tnat tho actual street improvements during the last two yeara waa $205,000.00. Also wish to call your attention to the fact that the levy of eight mills has remained the same In the last six years. During the time I have been in the clty'a service, it has always been my aim to improve the financial affairs, aiming to decrease taxes, and if elect ed Mayor, I shall continue toe aame policy.

Oregon City's Big (BY 0. B. DIMICK). I bavo been nominated for tho of flee of mayor of our city by a largo number of th legal voter and heav iest taxpayer without any solicita tion upon my part either directly or indirectly, and you will bo oallod upon on Monday, December 4 to ntalse your choice between th candidates for that Important postilion. , In order that three will bo no mlsv . understanding ahould I be elected I desire to state to you frankly my poei Uon upon certain questions that wlb coma before tho city administration during th year 1912. In the first place I bellevo tn fro gresalon, but In pursuing that policy the city administration should take Into consideration the extreme hard ships Imposed aa, well aa the benefits derived from all Improvements of public nature. During tho paat year great many Improvements wore mado under the amended City Charter and there are today contracts outstand ing for further Improvement which will require a long length of time tor their ultimate cbmpletHRL One of the best engineers In tho state, who after familiarizing htmsenT jrith our atreet work, stated this Week that Oregon City was paying twenty per cent more for it atreet improve ments than I necesaary, and I aaa certain of my position when I any that those conditions have boon brought about by awarding contract to the aame contractor long before hla previous contract are completed and before proper and accurate esti mates ar made regarding the actual coets of the Intended Improvement. I do not believe In the- expenditure of public money for public Improve ments unless It Is done under the moat careful and accurate method and tl mate that can be acquired, and atreet Improvement in particular where th burden Js taxed against the abutting property, the greatest care ahould bo taken that la possible to exerct for the reason that It usually sweep away the saving of a man or woman which haa taken yeara to acquire. I am opposed to any further street Improvement contracts until th con tracts which hav been awarded hav been completed, and there 1 a show ing made that additional street should be Improved for th better ment of the city, and then only after ' the grades have been carefully eotstkv II shed and accurate estimate aaad as to the coat. There ar at the present time ft largo number of streets andergoiBg . Improvements and at th same tins there are thousand of dollars la war rants Issued In payment for those Im provements that the contractors and laboring men are unable to sell at the banks, or even convert Into cash at a discount. ' During tho past year Molalla ave nue, from the city limits to th feust neas district In Oregon City, has boom sadly neglected and at tho preoeat time a large part of that highway Is practically Impassable and ahould be be immediately put In proper ooadl tlon as two-thirds of the business traf fic of thla city dependa upon that Im portant highway. I wish to call the legal voter at tention to the fact that during th (Continued on pea 4) 500 CLUB IS ENTERTAINED. Herbert Martin Win First Prlzo and . Guy Roddick Consolation. Mr. and Mra. A. D.
