Per manent Improvements grading, sew er, city hall, etc., ?3RD7; warrants redeemed, $515,' In additton the mayor remarks: Tho ircelpts and disbursements of the watert department have been kept separate from the other funds Tho water sjstem cost approximately $12,000. Tho funds wero derived from the sale of $10,000 bond fosue which was authorlred by the voters on August 15, 1911. and warrants for $2000 were Issued to mako up the deficiency. This constitutes tho total Indebtedness against tho water system with the exception of ono out standing warrant for $2S2.30. same being Issued to equip the system with meters. There Is now nearly enough outstanding In unpaid-water bills and In the treasury of the water fund, to take care of this warrant. Interest on the water bonds has been patd from tho general fund. We 'arc Indebted to tho citizens of town for a contribution of $71.50 toward the cost of tho band stand and to members of the band for a portion" of tho labor. Wo arc Indebted to tho ladles of tte Roguu River Improvement club for tho drinking fountain Installer in front of the band stand. There has been constructed 1030 lineal feet of concrete sidewalk. This has been dono by the owners of the property adjoining. A franchise has been granted to the Home Telephone & Tclograpii company. This company Is now making preparations to remove all poles from the principal streets to thealle)s and place a portion of the overhead wires In cables. Aside from warrants outstanding against the water fund, which I have mentioned above, there has been a warrant Issued for $1327 for ho;o nnd reels and other fire equipment. This stands as a debt against the gen eral fund at this time. I bespeak for the coming council your hearty co-operation. They have accepted tho office to which they arc elected under protent.
