'of feeling for all. and expres"l the conviction that the council would ex pend to Mayor Suprenant the same courtesy that haJ been extended In the past to the chief executive of the city.

I The roll was called and th following ' councllinen responded to "heir names: Agren. Brix. 7ok, Hansen, Parker. Scherneckau. Svensen, t'txlnirer and Wright.

Z: Mr. Cyrus, Mr. Trul linger was declared the choice. He will be installed Wednesday night. Mayor Suprenanl's first annual mes sage was then read. It was as follows; "'Jentlemen of the Common Council: It is customary for lh- mayor, at the beginning of his ter n of clfi.e. to communicate to the council ly mes sage, setting forth, as far as praoj cable, the general condition "f the city's affairs, and making hi. ch reom mendatlons as he deems proper. Ow ing to the fact that the reports of the various officers of 'he city have , not been available th-y having Just been completed -I am jnahle at this time to make any extended or Kpeclfic statements or .-ecnnmcn -latlons; but must leave su h for future tlm.-H, when officers' reports can have been exam ined. My remarks on this occasion must, therefore, ie of a ery general nature. "The affairs of the city are, I think, generally In a fairly arlsfactory con dition. So far as I am informed, the various officers of ihe city are per forming their duties carefully, prompt ly and efficiently. However, this Is an age of rapid development, and it Is re quisite that, while practicing economy in all departments, we keep abreast of the times and up lth the march of events. While the finanres of the city are not in a serious condition, they are far from being satisfactory, and we should labor earnestly to Improve them. The limitation of Indebtedness allowed by the city charter has been almost, if not i)ulte, reached, and while It Is unwise In public, as in private affairs, t.i be parsimonious, it is but Just and proper that the affairs of the city lie econo mically administered. The Interest charged against the city Is a heavy burden, and ,f there Is any means by will, h It can be r-dijced. it should be d.rie; and some provision .,u!d bv made, f ,.sible, for gradually reduc ing the city'- indebtedness. There are many outstanding claims against prop erty o.vn.-rs, so, h as tax-s. street as sessments, int. lest , liarg.-s. etc.. all of whlih shoul I I- promptly , ollecte,, and the proceeds properly applied. owing to the nia nner of construc tion of our principal streets I heir maintenance i a great ex-nse, and a heavy burden to th.- property owners thereon. Yet due car.- must l- used to keep them In safe and proper con dition, and the building of new streets should le- cn'. red up n only after care ful consideration of ihe necessities therefor, and of 'he ability of the city and the property t,, b- ar the ,-x-penur ther-of. "The sanitary condition of the city Is of the utmost importance. It Ih not su' h a It should b-. and were we riot blessed with a Wonderful climate, we would pay d.-arly f,,r our short comings in that respect. I especially ,atl tio- afentioii nt the commit, ,-e on health and police to this matter, and urge that they take it up, at once, k-,. that existing laws are strlc ly en forced, and win-re th- laws are de fo ti-.e. r.-' otiun.-nd sic h additional leg hslation as will remedy the defects, "in,c the c,y h ,U' In good Sanitary condition. I, lit little effort '.'.ill be re ,,jire. to maintain that condition. , ' ''or.formlty o tin- regula'loriH Im , pos.-d for the prevention of fires In the city Is of the utmost importance. Ho far as I have ascertained, the (ire de partment Is in good condition, well equipped, ably managed and Is prompt and efficient in suppressing fires. ' The capacity of our city during the next two years can be to a consider able extent advanced or retarded by j the manner In which the city Is gov erned. A live, energetic, yet economical, government will Inspire confidence and encourage the Investment of capital In 'our tnllHt: while mismanagement and extravagance destroys confidence and drives capital away. We should en ; courage and foster legitimate enter , prises of all kind. i "I shall always be glad to render you any assistance in my power, In any (work which you may undertake for the advancement of the city's nterests, .and ask your hearty co-operation In the endeavor to not only maintain ,,ur ! present condition, but t" i nprove It 'so fur u In our power lies. 1 i.Mr. Ilrlx Introduced a resolution fix ing the time ,,f meeting I' inter the terms of the resolution, the council Is to meet on the first and thlid Monday 'of each month at T.J p m.. and. If the ! regular meeting night shall fall on a i holiday, then the meeting will occur on the Tuesday night following The resolution specified that no meeting would le- held last night, but that the itlrsl tegular meeting of the year ; should occur tomorrow night. The reso lution w as adopt.-d. I The council then adjourned. Mein iliers and citizen- gathered around the I mayor's desk and warmly r..ngratu l.ite-l him, wishing him all the mi ccs ,ssll,le.
