That Is literally what happens to every human creature, for his 'house' Is al ways on fire, though the real meaning of the descriptive phrase Is not always rightly understood by those who utter It. The phrase 'getting up steam,' so often used In a Jocular sense, Is another truth but Utile understood. Our body Is never done getting up steam, and this steam Is our propelling power, by which we are able to get. tibout our work and by which the brain is able to keen mi ts rush of Ideas.

""" ano nxlnir thi time nf meeting on the first and third Mondays of ,-a. h month, with the pro vision that a (rnt meelii,K shall b held m-xt Friday evening, Mayor Wise delivered his address, which was as follows: Astoria, Oregon, January 7th 1!07. ticntleiuen of ihe Council: The city charter requires the Mayor to submit an annual message to the council, therefore I bave the honor to transmit this, an H message of good will, of hnp,. and nf progress; a mes sage from nne who owes much to all parties and to all the people. Astoria has reasons for feeling good, the year 1!WS will be long remembered as the year that brought employment ami liberal n-numenitlon to the nrll Mail Ih.. f,--,.l... i. , me pi nicssiimai man, the banker and 0 the city ns a whole.

'"'"'i- iiKuuiesi mat cod has 11 extremely kind to us and we should gratefully acknowledge His pow er and goodness and rt-verentlv prav for a continuation of His manifold blessings, ('in,.,, may vanish through the night, but they cannot arise in a year. However, we can and we must advance a little every year. Astoria has advanced considerably during the past year. About 30 separate street Improvements h:ivo been started and all but two or three have been com pletrd. A beginning has been made nn ihe cliy park; the foundation for a large new lire-engine, building has been Mulshed so that ere long the etll ei-uc i ur splendid tire department will be materially Increased. The peo ple have had the lirst opportunity of making their own charter and while some of th,. amendments will have lo be tried in prove their merit ,st ( them are undoubtedly an improvement over old previsions. The unsightly telegraph and light poles have been painted and through the efforts of Ihe West ,;d n,ul live ly Improvement clubs, many untidy places have been cleaned. The balance due on city hall Indebted- balance due on Ihe cily hall indebted ness has been paid. Quite a number of electric street lights of a better stand ..,i i....... , , , . . . "ecu milieu; several minor im provements have been brought about, and all of this has been accomplished without Increasing the city's Indebted ness or requiring a special tax levy for the year 1!H7. Profiting by the experience of the past wP should begin this year's street Improvements early, giving contrac tors the benefit of good weather, but reminding them that no extension will be granted save in exceptional cases. There should be no delay in finishing the Irving avenue improvement ns it means another connecting link between the lOast and West ends of tho city and the building up of our sightly residence section. You gentlemen have the opportunity of building your own monuments If you will but begin to fill up our hollow streets. The prevailing high cost of lumber with an additional Incr'iwic In price furnlshen tf. v,.,-y .t TWLHimn fur making solid and permanent streets Posterity would wrlle us down as short sighted pilot if W(. continue tn re Plank our streets with expensive lum ber every three or four years. Kveri If Ihe cnsi. of filling rind rocking the business I borough fares should amount to twice or thr'-e times the cost of woodei, nt n-els ll will be sill morn eco nomical it, the md, because the work will be dnne for good and the business lots affected would Kaln In value mor than Ihe petty difference In cost nf solid Improvement, vv'e must throw aside I bene wooden crut ch",,. In the erection of Ihe n-w fire de partment hcadipuirt'-rs let uh provide room for ihe installation of a steam en gine uh well as another hose truck. While ll Is to be hoped that our water service will leyer fall In case nf fire, piudi-ine demands that we prepare for every emergency, The Inereas d number of buildings, and excessive! rate of Insurance makes our duty to; provide adeouat,. fr(. ,,ri..,..,.in iiri.il,. I writing upon this subject I feel con st ralmd to remind you I hat there Is not a sufficient number of exits in the Astoria Theatre. The many sad ca- lastrnplif-M In other i Itles have proved that people will los(. their senses in Ihe fa,-,. f danger. We should there f"rc Innlst that at least i," exit be ad ded oi, th!. east side of the theatre building leading for mthe galb-ry di rectly t tin- opi-n street. I believe the enterprising owners of that build ing will agree t this reasonable demand. There has been a considerable num ber nf street lights added during the year, f, w things give a city a brighter appearance than well lighted streets but the limited appropriation for that purpose for the current year cautions us lo st"p granting further petitions for suc h additional lights for the time being. Little time should be lost in testing the validity of the new charter amend- mcnU, as suggested by the retiring "Ity atlorne who has given Astoria services which no private corporation could have secured for double salary. L'very contract and ordinance drawn by him has stood the test; he was pa (lent, accomodating and courteous. Fortunate Indeed will any of us be if upon our retirement from ubllc ser vice there will be such genuine regret Mid unstinted praise A change in the treatment of va grants Is suggested. At present they are confined, which penalty Is suspen ded providing they leave the city, but sooner or later most of them return I advise the creation of a rock pile. Work Is the sure cure for vagrancy one of the new charter amendments gives the Mayor with the consent of a majority of the council power to re move from service certain officers or employees of the City. That power should never be abused. The fact that the Mayor and council have that power will in iiseif lu.t s a regulator of of ficial conduct. Neither political nor personal grudges should sway our Judgement. We shall only insist that each and every officer and employee do his duty faithfully, efficiently and cour teously. We must expect no more, we can except no less. The various de partments of the city government have been well conducted. The work has multiplied without adding unneces sary deputies and without decreasing the standard of efficiency. In my first message to you I sug gested an ordinance be passed prohlbit- ing messenger boys under age from being sent to the restricted districts and re-affirm this suggestion that an ordinance be passed that they shall not he allowed to see hell on earth until they are old enough to distinguish the difference between right and wrong. The idea has been advanced that It would be advisable to pay the chair man of the street committee a reason able monthly salary for the reason that It takes much of his time to carefullv supervise street contracts. I believe that such a step would be to the best interests of property owners. The an nual street work has doubled over for mer years and it is hardly fair to ask any councilman to leave his work or his business for hours at a time, al most dally, without compensating him for the loss of such time. It occurs to me that It might be pru "To weigh every word and every act as though It were our last for who knows which may be the last act or word. Ho If the summons hence come at any moment, Pt our lust net and last word be so measured that It may bring the glow of gladness to our neigh bor's hearts and praises and blessing to their lips.
