THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
Gentlemen of the City Council :-
In deference to an old custom we have come together to- day for a double purpose, to review the work of the last municipal year and to deliberate upon that of the year which has just begun.
The last twelve months have been fruitful of important legislation. A Police Signal System has been provided and will soon be in active operation. A contract has been inade for street lights which secures for the city better lights than ever before at a greatly reduced price. New voting precincts have been erected in Newton Highlands and Newtonville. A high service system has been unanimously voted by your predecessors. About 700 acres of land have been seized for additional water supply and the remotest possibility of water famine has thereby been averted. 66,000 feet of land on Waban Hill have already been procured for the new reservoir and stand-pipe, and vigorous measures, undertaken with the unanimous approval of the last city government, are now on
4
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
foot to obtain all that the city will ever need for that purpose. The people of Newton have great cause to rejoice in the wise forethought of a City Council that has secured to them and their posterity forever this beautiful and commanding eleva- tion. The land for the play-ground at Newton Centre has been bought at a cost of about $24,000.00 and some of it has already been deeded to the city. The City Council contributed $10,000.00 of the purchase money and the rest was raised by a committee of citizens. Perhaps the most important work undertaken by the last City Council was the attempt to change the old system of committee responsibility and to establish a Board of Public Works. In my last inaugural address I ventured to express the opinion that executive powers should not be lodged in the City Council. Time and experience have confirmed and strengthened the judgment I then expressed. I am not afraid of going too far when I say that the old system contains all the materials for bad government. That in spite of it our government has been good is due to the uncommonly high character of our electorate and of the men who have represented it in the City Council and to the alertness and sensitiveness of public opinion among our citizens. In brief, as I said before, "the men of Newton can make any system of government work, even the very worst." This however furnishes no argument for clinging to a system we have out- grown, provided that we are able to see a way to better things. I therefore trust that speedy action may be taken upon the ordinances referred to you by the last city government and that
.

THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
at an early day I may be able to congratulate you and the people of Newton upon a change in administrative methods that will lighten your labors and at the same time afford full promise of greater vigor in executive work and of more har- monious action in the various departments.
Through the liberal action of the last City Council a lot has been provided in the Newton Cemetery for the interment of old soldiers and sailors. It would indeed be a lasting reproach to a community like ours had it suffered men who upheld its flag during the awful years of civil war to rest in unhonored graves. It may not be out of place here to direct your atten- tion to the fact that the Charles Ward Post is sadly in need of a memorial hall and to bespeak your encouragement, as individuals, of so worthy an enterprise. Whatever we may do as city officials, surely we can give our individual aid to no nobler cause.
LIQUOR LAW.
The vote against license was as usual strong enough to voice with no uncertain sound the sentiment of the people upon this vitally important question. During the year the unprecedented number of 40 convictions have been obtained for violations of the law. Too much praise cannot be given to the police department and to the fearless gentleman, who, from his place on the bench, has so honestly and courageously seconded the efforts of the department and the executive in stamping out the traffic in intoxicating liquors. I prom-
6
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
ise you and the people of Newton that during the coming year the law shall be enforced without regard to power or place and that impartial justice shall be meted ont to every offender that can be unearthed.
PLAY GROUNDS.
The last City Council, by its contribution of $10,000 toward the Newton Centre playground fund, has estab- lished a precedent from which its successors are not likely to depart. It is much to be hoped that movements may be set on foot in the villages on the northern side of the city similar to that which has been so fruitful of results in Newton Centre. If two playgrounds could be provided for the four large villages the question would be well settled for all time. I need hardly remind you that every year's delay increases the difficulty of obtaining land which is suitable for the purpose at a price within the means of the citizens and the city.
SEWERAGE.
The adoption of the Metropolitan Sewerage Bill by the last legislature is a long step forward in the solution of Newton's local problem. Little can be done by you this year, for you must now wait for the out-let which the great trunk sewer will afford. Some work of preparation can, however, be profitably undertaken at once.
In reviewing the work of the departments I shall omit much that is usually included in the mayor's address, leaving yon to find it in the reports soon to be published.

1889 $23,700 69
To this last total should be added $19,612.08, the cost of the Bemis and Washington street bridges. The Council of 1888 provided for payment of this cost by issuing notes of $1000, extending over a term of ten years, thus practically funding the debt. The Council of 1889 rescinded the order creating this debt and directed its payn it out of the surplus moneys in the Treasury. The City's liabilities were thus decreased by
9
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
the full cost of the bridges and the amount of such cost should clearly, I think, be included in the figures which represent the decrease of debt for the year.
The $10,000.00 for the playground at Newton Centre should upon similar principles be deducted from the figures representing the decrease. I recommend, however, that this be paid at once from the surplus moneys in the treasury. The total decrease is $33,312.77.1
There will be a large increase in the Water Debt during the present year. The cost of high service was estimated by your predecessors at $95,369.50 and that of increasing the supply at $98,900.00. Further sums of money, impossible to estimate at present, will be required for land on Waban Hill and for land recently taken along the banks of Charles River.
There will mature this year School and Library notes amounting to $14,250 00, which will be paid from the tax levy ; also a City note for $20,000.00, which will be paid from the tax levy through the agency of the Sinking Fund.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
It is gratifying to note the confidence which the public has had in the committee in charge of this department and the unselfish support given to it by all classes of citizens in its effort to conduct its work upon business principles. Due regard has constantly been had to the amount of the appropriation and the work of the department has been well done in accordance with intelligent plans, carefully made in advance.
POLICE.
The appropriation for 1890 contains provision for five additional patrolmen. Of this number four will be needed for the wagon, leaving a net increase of one for the ordinary purposes of the force. It is much to be regretted that the increase is so small. With the possible exception of the street department I know of no department where the demand for larger expenditures is so pressing and imperative as here. The crimes against property which have recently been committed with audacity and success in Newton have excited a natural alarm among our citizens, and evidence abounds that the demand for more police protection is wide spread. With our present force there are but 15 officers available for night duty, a number wholly insufficient to do half the work expected of them.
I desire to recommend a radical change in the schedule
12
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
fixing the salaries of officers. They now receive $750 the first year, $825 the second, $900 the third, and $1000 the fourth, and every succeeding year. Every new officer after paying $100 for the equipment which he is obliged to purchase, has only $650 with which to meet the first year's expenses. I therefore recommend that the salary be fixed at $900 for the first year and $1000 for the second and all succeeding years. I am thoroughly convinced that the change I recommend, if adopted by you, will result in securing to the city the services of men whom it is impossible, under the present system, to tempt away from their private business by the offer of a position on the force.
POOR AND ALMSHOUSE.
I renew my recommendation of last year, that a new site be found as soon as possible for the City Poor Farm. Without dwelling upon the many sufficient reasons for this change it is enough to observe that the land now occupied by the farm is too valuable to be longer used for such a purpose.
WATER DEPARTMENT.
The deficit in this department has been brought down to $8,161.06 for the year 1889, as against $9,572.26 in 1888, and $11,609.79 in 1887. The expenses of the department, includ- ing interest on bonds, service and meter account and rebates were $80,650. The receipts for meter rentals, which are not included in the total receipts of the department, were $3,198.83. In 1889 they were $2,659.

REGISTRATION.
The registration for the state election, Nov. 5, was 3782. Ballots cast, 2829.
Registration for the city election was : - Men, 3859 ; Women, 190. Ballots cast : - Men, 3079 ; Women, 107.
I recommend that an effort be made before the legislature to bring about such a change in the state law as will make it possible to establish a voting precinct for the Lower Falls.
SCHOOLS.
For information in detail concerning the schools I refer you to the annual reports of the committee and superintendent. You will doubtless be interested to know that the average cost per pupil has been reduced $1.68 during the past year. I have taken occasion to visit every school room in Newton and I am glad to testify to the high character of the teachers and to the pleasant and wholesome relations subsisting between them and their pupils. My only standard of comparison is the schools as they were many years ago when I attended them as a pupil. The improvement has indeed been marked. I have found the teachers doing the best of work in their own way, unshackled by formal rules and giving full play to their own individuality. Good work has therefore resulted from the employment of means as various as the characters of the teachers who used them. Moreover the system has been made sufficiently flexible to afford every facility for promotion to a pupil who is willing and able to advance more rapidly than his fellows.

THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
PUBLIC LIBRARY.
On December 31, 1889, there were in the Library 30,616 volumes, of which 2,250 were added during the last year. The circulation at Newton was 52,450, and at the other villages, through the agencies, 52,780, mak- ing a total of 105,230. The increase in circulation over that of the year 1888 was 1230.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The department has answered 83 calls during the year 1889. On Thanksgiving day engines 1 and 2, with details from companies 1, 4, 5, 6 and 7 rendered efficient service in controlling the great fire in Boston. The total loss by fire for the year has been $38,055.42. The loss in excess of insurance has been $4,719.52. I urge your earnest and favorable consideration of recommendations for changes of system which will be made by the chief engineer in his annual report.
BOARD OF HEALTH.
The work of this department has been performed with unusual and commendable energy. Under its control the spread of a malignant contagious disease has been arrested, house offal has been collected and removed with more effi- ciency than ever before since the creation of the department, and important improvements in drainage have been ordered and successfully effected on Knowles, Clinton and Oakland streets. Provision has also been made for draining wet land
.
15
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
on Elm and River streets, and the work will be undertaken in the spring. The members of the board are unanimous in their approval of the project for erecting a ward for con- tagious diseases at the Newton Cottage Hospital. Such a ward would prove a most important agent in dealing with contagious diseases and would greatly assist the board in its efforts to control them. I trust that you will find a way to pro- vide the funds for its erection.
DEPARTMENT APPROPRIATIONS.
Appropriations have been exceeded in nine depart- ments of expenditure out of thirty. If you agree with me that it is desirable to keep expenses within appropriations you and you alone are able to apply the remedy for the evil. As members of committees you have practically full control of most of the appropriations. Foresight, watchfulness and caution, not spasmodic, but unremitting from day to day, week to week, and month to month, will result in a prudent admin- istration of department appropriations.
Gentlemen of the City Council :
In addressing you for the second and the last time I venture to express the hope that we may work together cordially and harmoniously for the best good of our fellow- citizens, who have honored us by entrusting to us the management of their public affairs. Those of you who have served the city before already know, and those of you who
16
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
take their seats here to day for the first time will soon learn, that many and pressing demands are made by individuals which must be refused if a sole regard to the interests of all the people is to control your action. It is impossible for you to do your full duty if you unduly encourage local interests. I trust, therefore, that a truly broad and catholic spirit may control your deliberations and that by means of cordial co-operation between you, the executive and the various departments, the best results for all the people of all the villages may be obtained.
