II " At. the meeting "of the new eouneil last evening, for Greater Balem, Mayor y. "VV. Waters, after taking his seat and the oath of office, read his message t the council.' Thr? reading of the mes sage, which, was a Terr able document, required about fifteen minutes time and -was given rapt attention by the mem lcrs and spectators ' present. At its conclusion the mayor was given hearty and vigorous apjilause for .the soumf sentiments expressed in the message. The message in full follows: . "Gentlemen: - "It ia mv esneeial rtrivilcire to ad- idresg yon tonight IMthe'first mayor of Greater Salem. . v f'No't that I eonnt: it a personal vic tory, but by foree off a happy combina tion of circumstances, it has fallen to wy lot, and, I assure you, it ia my great pleasure to adjdress you in' this capacity; 'I have" perfect confidence and as surance that the return of the city gov ernment to Republican management will bring progress alone: all lines and insure successful financial administra tion, of oar city affairs. "Pae to the efforts of our Commer cial Club and a vrotrressive leirifel&tive delegation, Greater Halem has become a reality. ;-;-r '. V With greater charges and larger re sponsibilities falling upon us, we, r.s the newly elected representatives of the no pie, must take hold with a firm government. "W owe it to our nride. as well ns to our 'constituents,, to deal, with, alfj questions witit our greatest sense of Tight and justice, and not to allow any sense aX limitation to Mud our naods from 'free and progressive: legislation. u'Ja assuming the unfinished burdens tof ' our predecessors, we cheerfully take : tip the work, and it is our intention to make all the possible progress with what means we already have, and all that we are able to enlist. v MThe question" of improving our streets, beautifying our town and in ' other, ways bringing this municipality op to the highest standards of cleanli ness, ia under agitation. AV". -hasten to extend-to' the citizens our ': hearty, sup port towards all such measures, and menu to enforce all present laws, rules and regulations, under our new charter. Where any Micieney may appear let us remedy the same by proper legisla tion to justly promote every" legitimate reform movement, and we beg in re turn the co-operation of our citizens in private work and personal interest. 41 We occupy, in relation to the citi Kens of Greater Balem, and in the eoa kJuet of the various affairs of the city, the same relationship we should with, aa individual. Wo owe y-m the greatest economy in every department. We owe you, citizens, of Greater Salem, our west efforts towards maintaining a lean, healthful ... and : progressive city. fVe owe you our free and unrestricted support In all measures which may be presented to us lor mr consideration, aad for your benefit. We owe yon a (complete service in" every department lof the city government. v My attention baa been called I to Inula needed imnrnvcmpiit a in tha eitv departments in the way of protection to the public, and I deem it our duty to at once remedy such defects.' " A thorough acquaintance with the Various departments will reveal any. snort comings and past experiences will, in a measure, tend to show the proper - xemeuy. ; we must not leave our monu ments of progress and permanent im provements at the mercy of an ad--ministration of unwise economy. ' Xet Jus follow up .every forward atep with ' proper protection. - j - I believe in an efficient police force ana an emcieoi nre ueparimem; in a well organized street Cleaning depart Snent; in aiding the police, firemen and all other employes bftb eity by- sup plying them with the best . materials for their use and paying them wages adequate to insure a goofl public ser vice. ... - ' Finances. . ".The question of finances being at kill times paramount in municipal gov ernment, and of greatest importance at city, I eall your attention to a few figures showing the present bonded in debtedness and a few suggestions to wards conservative and rational eon Uuct of our financial affairs. There is presented herewith aa itemited state ment concerning our bonded debt: "Bridge, October lf 1& SB, 5 per cent, sau.tUHi, 15 years.?-- .-..',. .-' "Bridge, October 8, 1S90, 5 per cent, f 20.000, 15 years. ; J . "Sewer, December I, 1SS9 "51 per tent, siy.utxv years. " Funding. November , 1, 1S92, 5 per Cent, $'J0,QU0; 0 years, f "Funding, January 1, 189. 6 per tent, fW.UW, "0 years. - "State and Oak, January 1, 189 6 rer cent, 6,1S1, la years. "Funding, October 2, 1SS9, 4 per tent, $60,000, 10 years. 4 - 'Cy the- above report it will be seen that the, bonded indebtedness Is $220,- 38i.ol. This must be reducea as rap- idly as possible, consistent with the vrelfare of our city and the determina tion to jrotect our business men and taxpayers against any increased taxa- lirr;. an!, indeed, under a careful ad- pletely wiped out -and - without detri ment to our citv departments. "This" sum of $220,181.51 means to the taxpayers of Kalem an annual in terest of $10,7209. This interest money, if paidjjfito the running of r our city government, would work a great change in our eivie welfare., v "Ten thousand dollars a "year put into the streets, into sidewalks, Mhto establishing proier grades, "into laying out parks and f other permanent im provements, would make Salem a city of ; beauty, of ; healthful environment, and lend to every meritorious proposi tion a snbstantial aid in the way 01 funds for its aecomdishment. "This ten. thousand dllars,'or nearly eleven thousands dollars, hien ig paul out annually 'in interest, uloes not in clude in any way the current expenses of running our city goyernmnt, j nor the maintenance of any of itsi depart ments. -This expense is met by other revenues. , -1 "Let us proceel with firm confidence and uer every assurance to tjie public that t everything possible will be done towards reducing this bonded debt, and curtailing in other 'ways all unneces sary j-expense, thus reducing the tax .necessary, to be raised by. the people. To economize. the expense account with out crippling 'the efficiency of. the city in any department should.;. be. our; eon stant aim, , and to 'that end we' shall give the matter of finances onr Careful attention. ' A - -. ' The Popular Irfan. ' "I wish to espeeiallv call attention to the-fact that $.".0,000 of the hereto fore f inentione . i-onda.of indebtedness are pawt due. I would recommend the MAYOR T. W. WATERS, Of Greater Salem. immediate refunding of these bonds t.t as low a rato of interest obtainable, and would also recommend what is termed 'the popular loan' plan as the best .'mean's fof this redemption. ' . "Keep our money at home. Give our own1 people. the first opportunity to in vest' in their- own securities, and not scrtd Inrjie inums in interest awar from Salcm'every -year, when sunder the 'pop ular loan system this money would be pa hi out. to citizens at home, and they would at the same time beceme stock holders and. sureties for good business administration. As the revenues of the city for this current -year and the ap portionment of funds for the various departments; are already determined under the charter by the retiring city officials, no further reference to ojnr finarffial situation is required. - j Protection to Merchants. "Another matter of vital Importance is the proper! protection, of , our mer chants against transient venders, fakirs, imported bankrupt stocks, all of which cheapen -enterprise antl reduce the J commercial standing of the city. Our city laws should be amended to se curely protect our tsxpaying merchants from the 'hawkers' of wares whose only business is to relieve the public of money and to p'ay in.to the city treasury an insignificant suni for .the privilege. "Without building Chinese wall about our icity, lef us protect legitimate commercial enterprises and: encourage the; resident and permanently ' situated merchant. , -' ' " 'fin Connection with the matter of protecting 1 our legitimate merchants from transient venders, I desire to call attention to a class of venders fakirs, who are permitted to stand upon the street corners, under the protection of our. city, laws, and deliberately rob, de fraud and cheat our xeop1e. "VI would recommend that all such pillaging enterprises be ruled off our streets, . sijeh licenses le repealed .and stricken from our source of revenues, and that such fakirs be prohibited from appearing upon our public thorough' fares." A few dollars added to our city treasury will not compensate for the hundreds of dollars taken In return. " It is unnecessary to refer .to the im moral aspect of some of these " exhibi tions upon our streets in regard to onr yosng boys and girls. As in a commer- ial way, the cost along the line of morality is .greater than any possible revenue to me '.city. . r ' ' I also ; recommend, in ' this eonnee tion, that unsightly eripples, offensive appearing and badly deformed beggars be ; prohibited from plvinar their f rrae- tices on our streets, and that the city exciuae au sucn transienlf under ; its present laws covering such emergencies and that count iea twhere they belong Seeds saw all experimenting' ave dfsar PointBents. ears the standard beed. br all dealers. 1904 Anul potpil frci II applicants. : u. rxznnr &co, t So Seed is. 8 V X place tbera in the institutions provided for their care. With every feeling of lhmanity towards these unfortunates, iiT would seem advisable - to clean rur streets for obvious reasons. ) ' ' . - 'I .ii Streets.'; -: ; ) ' 1;1;; . "Considering the constant stream of visitors to the Capital City and espe cially noticing the many newcomers to our city, who -have come to make their homes with us, have we as a commun ity made sufficient endeavor to beautify onr. city, so that -it will attrset and please strangers seeking homes fv Have we each been interested in lending" a helping hand to - promote- public un prevements and particularly to that most conspicuous of all pmees, the streets? - ' : v".;. " ;T .-' ' Salem is the capital of i the state and should be the I pride of Oregon, more than any other eity. Every Ore gon ian, from whatever part of the state, has some interest in Salem. From this city emanate all the laws to gov ern and maintain the prosperous affairs of a great state." When any emergency of national importance comes ueiwr the people, it is in Salem where the matter is considered ,and determined. ! . ' Gentlemen, ean we be any too prond of our cityf . Can we be any too care ful in our city affairs? Catfwe be any too careful in our presenting to the stranger, the visitor, or the resident, a clean, beautiful and congenial; city? With all these 'natural advantages, shall we not pay particular attention from this time on to Jheibeautifying and permanently improving of our thor oughfares? : To all ' such efforts, we pledge the; most hearty co-operation of this administration to the end that in every instance i where any improve ment is undertaken, the public and the private property owner shall be guar anteed honest work worth one hundred rents on the dollar for the outlay. Co operation on the part of the citizens in the way of cleaning and improving our streets woala to an enective move. In referring to this matter of cleaning and improving our ; streets I would recommend the 'rock pile' be estab lished and our city prisoners be placed at work.; Labor performed by the eity prisoners should be of a character that will not deprive laboring men from em ployment. To give all the employment possible, from the eity government to our working man is highly important and proper, and I heartily approve of those provisions "of our city' charter guaranteeing ' reasonable .hours and compensation lor labor. "I would earnestly recommend an immediate renumbering, and renaming of our streets. That tne name of everv street be placed in a conspicuous posi tion and that all residences be correctly numbered. It ! is difficult without a proper system of house numbering and street naming to locate any given place, and with increasing population, the sooner this senons defect is remedied the better for all. ' The New Wards. "Under our new 'charter niu,ef terri tory was, abided jothe cityjjSnU three new ward,-wr cheated by,. pur, prede cessors. . , k. . ... i . . , " The first eonneilmen ifroni these newly added territories are with us to night, an,l we lil them and, their con stituents a he.artj- Welcome '.and iproposo to extend undef'dilr administration a helping hand toTTtrr-new cittrens and will seek to encourage every endeavor towards beneficial co-operation. "It must be remembered, however, by our newly, added citizens, that 110 levy or taxation has ever been placed upon them, hence, there can be no im mediate monev investment in the newly created wards until such time as rev-' enue shall accrue for such purposes. Whilst awaiting revenues from future taxation, we can always consider their wants. Let us give them every possible protection from fire, improve their driveways ' and : give them street lights where and when practicable. Borne time may be required in out settling down to smooth and good working order,' but co-operation and readv at tention to all such matters as arise in the conduct of an enlarged and greater city i government will preclude any thing but a prosperous add narmonious administration. Besides fire protection the people ofthe new wards need some police protection to keep . down the hoodlum spirit that sometimes does in jury to property and has on more than one occasion manifested itself in dis graceful interference! with public wor ship. s septice sewerage. "The important question of sewer age is before Greater Salem. The in creased boundaries will bring into the city limits thousands of homes and resi denees with which connection to sewer age in impossible. ' A ready and effec tive remedy must be had for this ex isting condition. In parts of the older city are sewers, but the outlying dis tricts ate without anv service. The large -state sewer . throuah our citv snouin oe opened to tne use of citizens. . J-rom ordinarv. sources of informa tion 1 have come to believe that what is termed 'septic sewerage' may prove the solution of this important question. 1 would recommend this system be thoroughly investigated and, if found practical ana ; worthy, that it be in stalled where necessary. The question of cost ia also not : to be .overlooked, and lam, informed this ' septic ' pro Cess is 'both effective and cheat) of in stallation. A universal sewerage, and as me same time cneap in construction, i wiuiiuii ntiicu. win. oe welcomed by all. - .--'V 4 v r ,; - weignts ana Measures. 'I wish to call your attention to section 22 -of our new' charter, in Which it provides for the measuring and weighing of hay, wood and all other commodities bought srnd sold in metope n market.

Jacob L. McCoy, bridge builder and contractor, residing on Capitol street, second house beyond Mill Creek, savs: "I have always enjoyed good health up to nve or six years ago. Along about that time my kidneys commenced to bother me. There was not so much backache, but the principal symptoms were in connection with the kidnev secretions. A strain or over-exertion very often caused hemorrhages of khe kidneys. I cannot say that it was' i so painful, but it was very anaovinz. I used, various remedies, and while some gave relief, others were worthless. In some way Dona's Kidney Pills were Drougnt to my notice, and when up town I dropped in to Dr. Stoae's drug store and procured a.box. takinar them as directed. .
