Company o'Tlcliiln with the end In view
of ctvistructng a itcn wall alonK the
v'ltter'rniit. The message follow.:
To the llonorublo Common Council
of th- City, of AstoriaGentlemen:
Having iinlvcd tit a new year In the
tlty'n existence, It la proper that we
btlefly consider the achievements of
the past year, profit by considering our
mlil iltcr and shortcomings, and roa-
tcmp'ut the good that we may accom
pli.!. In the future.
The past year ha. been a very satis
factory one. Many Improvement, have
been constructed, an efficient fire de
partment and competent police force
maintained, nnd at the same time the
ernMlure. of the city have been les.
luiti It. Income to an amount exceeding
one-rmlf of It. annual receipts from
direct taxation. I feel that the officers
of the city are Justly entitled to the
thank, of the public for the faithful
manner tn which their trust he. been
pet formed and, while It may seem un
just to single out any particular of
tleer v. hen all have been very attentive
and able.lfeel that the uudltor and police
Judge itnd city physician are entitled
to special commendation for the able
usM eiilelent manner In which those
olllces huv-J been administered.
Wllii reference to Improvements for
the coinlnr year, I recommend that
w Ithout delay the streets which are to
be Improved during the coming year
he sel.oted and thnt the proceedings
for thMt Improvement be commenced
toon, so that they may be Improved
during the early summer. It Is very
urjrent that the present financial condi
tion of the city be maintained and
great cai should be exercised In Im
proving new streets to see thnt no
street be ordered Improved where nny
considerable portion of the expense of
the Improvement will fall upon the
ueneral fund.
The council act. a. trustee for the
public In keeping the Improved streets
fiifo for public travel, and when a
street Is Improved it acts as trustee or
agent for the property owner, who Is
to be nsseased to pay for the same, and
consequently the utmost good faith
should be exercised tn keeping the Im
proved streets free from danger, and
when any new street Is Improved to
see that the Improvement Is econom
ically and properly made.
Care should be exercised In cleaning
the streets and I would recommend
thnt a street cleaning cart be procured
and that two men be employed to keep
the streets In a clean condition, and
also that a suitably dumping ground be
provided. " ;
The fire department Is satisfactory In
every 'particular, with the exception of
the location o'.'the No. 2 engine house,
and I would recommend the purchase
of the property offered to the city by
Mr. Joseph-Schamberger as a site for
n engine house and, also as mean, of
Jinking Duane street a continuous
rtoroughfore.
The police' force and police commis
sion are entitled to - great credit In
guarding the revenue, of the city a
well as the publlc safety, and 1 do not
see how It could be Improved upon, but
would recommend to the .pedal con
sideration of the police department the
enforcement of the ordinance, for the
om.imcnt of the city, such as tearing
a!owu dllaoldut?d buildings and paint
ing roofs, a. an active effort should
be mude to make the city more pre
entubl", and especially so on account
of tl.e number of stranger, who will
visit the city during, the next two
Recently I vetoed an ordinance pro
ldlng for the purchase of a site for a
new city hall for the "reason th&t I
did not consider It wise to purchase
property for thnt purpose before the
present -.-Ity hall had been disused
of. Should that veto be sustained by
the council. I would recommend the re
pnlilng of the present city hall by re
moving th engine house and repairing
the place occupied by It for offices for
the luulltor and water commission, the
construction of a vault, the building of
a new Jail and remodeling the council
chamber, and other office, on the sec
ond floor of the building; but. should
the veto not be sustained and the prop
erty he purchased, I would not consider
it advisable to spend a single dollar
In repairing the present building.
Fniilly, while a matter that can not
be accomplished In the near future.
I consider the construction of a sea
wall along the trestle of the Astoria &
Calumbla River railway, from near the
Clatsop mill to the old Kinney cannery,
Suggests Winter Legislation for
Hummer Improvement of
Thoroughfare.
and the filling In of the portion of the
city enclosed by the same, a feasible
Improvement, and I would recommend
that the committee on public prorerty
lal.e up this matter with the Astoria &
Columbia River railway company and
ascertain the probable cost of .the Im
provement and what proportion of the
(an-e the railroad company would pay,
and report the matter to the council
durlnx the coming year.
I thunk all the officers for their
courteous treatment and express my
confl lenee In their ability to accomplish
as muih In the present year a. was
done during that Just past. Respect
fully, , J. W, 8UPREXANT.
