About '200 houses were jlOtitl during the pst past yer lnclii.1itik many handsome dwellings an well as some ele ,it business bOMM, The ofal charter i found to lie ileficlent in many respect. The council therefore resolved itself into committee i.f the whnlewhn with the uiunce of the City Attorney after aeveral week lalr fnnniilateil s charter that I think will hold water and vi-rv nmeh simplify future IfSillllTrffl The name of the town i now imply Eu.ene, drooping the City. The streets ami alleys are in a gissl cnndi tiun generally anil with a little repair will be fintclaw. A contract was maile with the water company for water for city purnmes without regard to ipiantity at an animal payment of $1,000, which the council aa well as myself thought a good contiact, hut we hear com plaint that the water company is running the city; to thoae 1 will say that 1 have no iloubt the water company will be willing to cancel the contract. The city in fairly well lighted nt less than any other city on the Coast. The light company can furnish larger ligh. a' a pniportlnMttoljr larger rate, but except tor a display, he preiieiit lights are large enough ami cau therefore be divided aroiiud the city more generally. A street car company MM organized and a franchise asked for within the past year an ordinance wan therefore panned granting audi fr uctose, liberal in its terms, but carefully guarding the interest of the Mople. It an, however, not accepted by the company and therefore failed to beiiuue a law. It ii an old mving that corporation have no noula. Thin may or may not lie an, hut 1 do know that cor iinratioHit nre generality able to take care of theiuelve while tha public have only their public DtBoWR to look out lor their intereeteaa I nucli olhi em boiild if piwiMe be more careful of a public truiit th in of their own intereata, I regret very much, however, that the enter;irie lid not go on and hoe yet to nee the work in uiHIillon liefore the year ia clnaed. Thelire department is in very Ood haie. We now have a hook and ladder company, one Button hand engine, two indeieniient hose Uaius.with BMUrM and fire plugs wherever the water mains are layed, with a reservoir prea sure of SO Iba, capable of throwing the water over any building in town, a good engine house with plenty of good hose, no with well trained firemen we light to be well piotected. There has been expended for the tire department in the last i yearn about $8,300 not including monthly allowances, or salary of chief engineer or water supply. And while I think it an dent and money well spent tn have an efficient tire department an uunecennary outlay is money waated. It seemed to the council as well a mynelf that a (ire alarm Ml wan a ne cennity, therefore the I 'hie f Engineer iu eon junction with the Committee on Kire and Va ter was instructed tn negotiate for a liell and the hone neceanary an well an a bell tower. The Chief Kngineer, however, without conmilta tion with the Committee, ordered 1,000 feet of hose at $1 lr foot, alnn a bell, and wan about to contract for tower. The commit tee, however, took the matter in hand and having altered plans and advertising (or bids let theenntract for a tower to W H Abramiat ?5S5, and while it seems to ine that a tower answering the purne NUM have been built for halt the money yet I apprehend the one Dontractsd fr will be b.ith ornamental as well us useful, and is a reasonable figure consider ing the building. t regards recouimendatiom for legislation I have n ithing to recommend nnd will leave that for my successor. To the outgoing msmbtfl of the council as well an those who hold over: Some of you have lieen with me during the entire term of eix year- I have this to say. You have la bored for the public weal with a zeal and disin terestednesn that entitle you to the thanks of the citizens of Eugene. You have had tont'g lect private buniness at times when I know it was nt a sacrifice of your own interest, aud do the best you could some one is sure to feel that his liberties have been abridged. I shall always remember the uniform courtesy received at your hands; our deliberations have have al ways lieeu harmonious. To the new meniliers: Some of you have been in the harness liefore; you know what is i xpected of you and I have no doubt that you will faithfully serve the peo ple ami that nmr legislation will redound to your hiino,-. In my successor I feel assured tnat I leive the gavel in careful hands, and tru-t that our beautiful City, a gem in the mountains, will flourish under your adminis tration and that you may have nciasi u to be proud of the title of Mavor of Eugene.
