Mayor Schunk presented and read the following report: Dubuque, Ia., December 30, 1909. To the Honorable Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: Your instructions in the special session of Tuesday even- ing last to investigate conditions in the City Assessor's Office have been complied with and I submit the fol - ]owing report covering the scope of the Investigation and its results. To begin with, I furnished Deputy Assessors Wiedner and Kenneally with the following typewritten signed notice: "Pursuant to instructions from the City Council in special session Tues- day evening, December 28, I hereby ask ,you to give me your reasons why you are not helping the City Assessor finish the tax books for the year 1909." "I was also instructed to notify you that the tax books must be completed on time." "The motion also included Instruc- tions to me to report resblts of these requests to the City Council at the next session: hence you will kindly make answer soon." Both Deputies responded promptly and frankly stated their grievance, which was in substance that they had been subjected to an unfair divi- sion of the work in the office the en- tire year. That because of the Assessor's absence from the city and other causes, the bulk of the work in the office had been imposed on them. They declared that they had repeat- edly called his attention to the fact that he was not attending to his duties but without result. They also stated that by working hard they had brought up to (late work during the summer on incomplete assessment re- turns. Deputies Wiedner and Ken- neally assert that they were obliged to make up the entire assessment books, two in number, from which the tax lists are made out. During the present month Deputy Kenneally said he worked at the Court House checking up real estate transfers for the current year and making a new lot book indicating the changes in property holdings. This book he reports as finally completed on Tuesday, December 28. Both Deputies allege that they have done all the work properly within their line of duty, and more too. They both declare that they will now. dur- ing the regular office hours, work on any book or books, or on anything within their line of duties, but will not work after hours to complete tax list No. 1, A to L inclusive, because it is not a part of their duty and claim - Ing to be in no way to blame for the delay in completing it. Deputy Wiedner on Wednesday af- ternoon completed Volume 2 of the Tax List of 1909, M to Z inclusive, and the same is in the hands of the City Treasurer. Both Deputies have asked to per- sonally appear before your Honorable Body and make a statement of the reasons for their positions In the. controversy,—a request that I know You will gladly grant. Respectfully, H. A. SCHUNK, Mayor. On motion of Ald. Haas the rules were suspended to allow the Assessor and his Deputies to address the Council. Deputies Wiedner and Kenneally then addressed the Council, claiming they had worked hard all the time and finished what they deemed their part of the work, and more too, and are willing to work more to help out the situation, but did not deem it just or fair to ask them to work overtime unless allowed additional pay. Assessor Kelly also claimed to have worked hard to complete the other Tax Book, claiming whatever time he Special Session, December 30, 1909 lost he had made up on overtime, that with tite assistance• of his two De- puttes he would tr•y to complete the book on time. providing they all %%• rked overtime. _Aid. Rand moved that Deputies \\'iedn--r and K,-nnealiy be allowed g25,uu oadditiena.l pay each to help \I r. 1<elly' complete the book on time, and the report of the Mayor be re— eek ed and filed.

REPORTS OF OFFICERS. mayor Schunk presented and read the following veto on the report of the Committee of the Whole, grant- ing the prayer of the Smedley Steam Pump Co., accepting taxes on t he same valuation for the years 1906 and 1907.as in former years: Dubuque, la., Dec. 24th, 1909. To the Honorable Council, City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: I have had under con - sir er;uion your adoption of the Com - mime. of the Whole report, granting the prayer of the petitioner„ the Smedley Steam Pump Co., asking that its taxes for the years 1906 and 19117 be accepted on a basis of $10,000 valuation instead of on the basis of the Assessor's return, $21,280.00, for those years. I call your attention to the fact that the Smedley Steam Pump Co. by an agreement with former Councils has already, prior to the years for which reduction is now asked, en- joyed the privilege of paying only on a valuation of $10,000.00 for five years. and this agreement expired with the tax of 1905. It is a well known fact that these whole or partial cancella- tions of taxes are illegal, but, even if it were not true, the company in the over 50 per cent of canceled tax valuation it has enjoyed for a period of five years, has been very fairly treat. (1. and should not be granted further favors along that line. 1, therefore, return you the report et the Committee of the Whole grant- ing the prayer of said petitioner, adopted by your honorable body on December 21, 1909, and hereby veto the 'motion that passed, adopting same Respectfully, H.

The annual report of the Trustees of Carnegie -Stout Free Library was presented and read, as follows: Report of Trustees: Dubuque, la., Dec. 31st., 1909. To the Mayor and Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: In obedience to the re- quiren•nts of the statutes of the State. the Board of Trustees of the Carni gie-?tout Free Public Library herewith submit to your honorable body their annual report for the year 1909. They enclose therewith the annual report for 1909 of the Librarian of the Library, which you will find very full and able, and giving you a most intelligible and comprehensive pre- sentation of the operations of the library. There still continues to be gratifying evidence of interest on the part of the people of the city in the attractions and benefits which the library offers, so that a very large fraction of the people of the city, youth and adult, are enrolled as library members, and are partaking of its intellectual stimulus. The enrollment of members is now 12,474, an addition for the year of 881. The total circulation for the year amounted to 10 2,710. Of these 8388 volumes were circulated through the branch libraries established in nine public and parochial schools at the desire and under the care of teachers interested in the uplifting work. The net number of volumes added to the library in 1909 was 4,000, in- cluding general works in the Allison Memorial collection, making a total of 2£,045. not including 12,000 govern- ment publications. In our report of last year mention was made of Mrs. Jennie A. Bray - ton's most generous gift of the library of the late Senator Allison, but noting the fact that the bods had not yet been transferred to the public library, and had, therefore, not been counted in the last report. Early this year, however, the complete Allison Library was transferred by Mrs. Brayton, and duly arranged and labeled, adding 2200 volumes of mis- cellaneous literature and 1600 volumes of government publication to our collection. Most of the miscellaneous publica- tions were in handsome bindings and Regular Session, January 20, 1910 sets, and much of the material was rare and valuable, while the govern- ment publications were bound in a rich uniform style with the Senator's name embossed thereon. For the "Allison ,Memorial" thus established. the Board feels a deep sense of grati- tude to Mrs. Brayton. Among the other notable gifts that came to the library during the year were those from Mrs. H. P. Ward, of Washington, D. C., who, with her late lamented husband, was for many years among our early and respected citizens. In memory of her husband, ,firs. Ward presented to the library a set of a special edition of Curtis' "North American Indians," one of the most beautiful and v,iluable specimens of typography ever issued by the press of the country. This special edition is being issued under the patronage of J. Pierpont Morgan, and has been dedicated by Theodore Roosevelt over his written signature. The edition, when completed, will consist of 20 royal quarto volumes, profusely em- bellished. and 20 portfolios of photogravures of Indians and Indian life which Mr. Curtis spent many years in personally securing. This will give to our Dubuque library an artistic edition of this most valuable work that but few libraries of the world will be able to secure. Supplementing this very valuable gift, Mrs. Ward also presented to the library a rich and artistic case for housing and preserving it, and facilat- ing its use by those who wish to in- spect or study it. In addition, Mrs. Ward has enriched the Art Room of the library by three costly and beautiful etchings by not- able artists and of historical subjects, each very handsomely framed. The good and generous friends of the library who last year made a cash gift of $100 in order to enlarge the list of magazines and periodicals, re- peated her gift the present year, se that this branch of our circulation has continued very full and attractive. The board also acknowledges with gratitude other gifts from Judge Shiras for the embellishment of the library, toward which he has done so much at his personal cost. His later gifts have been 18 water color sketches of California flora for the Art Room, and a set of 24 portraits of presidents of the United States for the Historical Room. The Educational Division of the Woman's Club of Dubuque has again laid us under a great sense of obliga- tion for its annual gift to the chil- dren's room, this year presenting a handsome clock. The walls and ceilings of the his- tnricals and museum rooms, and the ceilings of the Art Room have been 15 handsomely and substantially paint- ed in nil. c'onsiderabie repair has been needed and made to the floor of the auditorium. The following will show the finan- cial statement for the current year: FINANCIAL STATEMENT.

E. LYONS,Auditor. On motion of Ald. O'Rourke ferthe he re- port was approved and to the Committee on Finance. City .Attorney Lyon reported as fol- lows: and City To the Honorable Mayor andf City Council of the City low:u G,•ntlemen: The undersigned, edof whom was referred the petition f Christu;i \Nasser, herewith submits his reports on the same: The petitioner requests that the special assesstn, nt levied on the 5th day „t• Yov oiler, 1908, by the City t'num•il• on Subdivision 6 of Brecht's Subdivision of Let One (1) and Sub- ,livikien 5 of Brecht's Subdivision 9fof of Lot in the amount of $= an improvement made on Hennepin Street, he reduced to the sum of $75.00, claiming that said assessment is exhorbitant and beyond the bene- fits conferred by such Improvement, and illegal because in excess of 25% of the actual value of said lots. I am of the opinion that the peti- tioner has waived any rights which she may have had, conceding the facts set out in her petition to be true—a matter about which I have no per- sonal knowledge. Section 971 of the Code of Iowa provides for the filing of any objec- tions one may have to the proposed levy of a special assessment. In this case there were no remonstrances filed against the levy as proposed. Sec. 324 of the Code provides that all objections to errors, irregulari- ties or inequalities in the making of special assessments, etc.. not made be- fore the Council at the time and in the manner provided, shall be waived, except where fraud is shown. There having been no objections filed in this case, all errors, irregularities or in- equalities I believed to be waived. Sec. 839 of the Code provides for an appeal giving any party aggrieved by any assessment levied for street improvement, right to have the as- sessment reviewed by the District Court. And further provides that only such objections as are made be- fore the Council, as provided for in the section last above referred to, shall be raised upon the appeal. There having been no objections filed before the Council, and no ap- peal taken from the assessment as made by the Council, I believe the as- sessment becomes a finality and is binding upon the party. February 10, 1910. Respectfully submitted, GEO. T. LYON, City Attorney. Ald. Haas moved that report of City Attorney Lyon be approved and referred to Committee of the Whole. Carried.

JOHN O'ROURKE. Chairman. Following report -of City Attorney Lyon on bill of Jacob Haudenschield was then read as follows: To the Honorable \iayur and City Council of the City of Dubuque, lotva: Gentlemen: The undersigned, to whom was referred the bill of Jacob Haudenschield for oats furnished the various departments of the City, here- with submit his report. i find that on January 16th, 1909. the City through its Mayor entered into ,n contract with Jacob Hauden- sehield, by the terms of which the said Jacob Haudenschield, was to furnish certain specified qualities of hay and oats to various departments of the City, at certain specified prices for a period of one year, beginning .December 1st, 1908. - That in the proposal of said Jacob Haudenschield, which is attached to said contract, and which is referred to in the contract, he agrees to furn- ish the amounts required upon fifteen days notice In advance; that during the term of the contract hay and oats were ordered from said Jacob Haud- enschield by the Chief of the Fire Department under direction of the Chairman of the Committee on Fire. in car -load lots; that this action has been ratified and approved by the Council and all former bills of said Jacob Haudenschield have been allow- ed and paid; that the Chief of the Fire Department ordered the oats for which the present bill is presented, on November 20th, 1909, being several Clays before the expiration of the con- tract; that the Chief was instructed as heretofore to place such order; that the oats were needed by the different departments; and that the price and quality were in accordance with the terms of the contract; that the oats were delivered a few days :tfttr the expiration of the contract, but within a reasonable time after the order was placed. From the foregoing facts it appears that the order for the oats was given in the usual and custont:rry manner and such as had been ratified :tad approved by the Council on former occasions, and that it had been placed before the expiration of the ioutr:n't. I ata therefore of the opinion that 1-i:t.uden- sehield could have been compelled to deliver the oats of the kind. in the quantity and at the price provided for in the contract, and it mut neces- sarily f(llnty that, having complied with the ohlis:ttions imposed upon hint by the terms of the contract he is entitled to have the contract carried out by the city in accordance with the terms then -of. 1 am of the opinion that the bill is a valid and legal obligation upon the City. Respect fully submitted. GEO. T. 1.1-0N• City Attorney. Ald. i::tnd moved the adoption of the report of the Committee of the Whole or'der'ing w':u•r.utits drawn to pay bills of Jacob Haudenschield. Carried by the following vote: Yeas --Aids. Frith. Haas. Rand, Saul and Singrin. Nays --Aid. 0' Rourke. Absent—Aid. 'Martin. Mayor Schunk then presented and art read the following veto on the rel of the Committee of the Whole or- dering hill of Jacob Haudenschield Maid : 1)uhuqui. Iowa. Feb• 1 nth. 1 91 n. To the llonornhie Council. City of Dubuque: Dear Sirs: The action of your Committee of the Whole, ratified by your honorable body, ordering the Haudenschield oats bills ($979.111 paid, is a rank injustice to the tax payers of the City of Dubuque. dcn The contract with Mr. IISltt Adjourned Regular Session, February 10, 1910 47 schield expired by limitation on December 1st, 1909, and the oats were delivered to the City on December 9th, 1909. This statement would perhaps not be so startling were it not for the fact that the con- tract price for oats to December 1st, 1909, was sixty cents per bushel, whereas the market price on Dec- ember 9th, 1909, was but forty-five cents per bushel, a difference of fifteen cents or twenty-five cents per cent less, quite a nice extra profit that. It has been asserted that the oats were ordered November 20, 1909, but there is no evidence of it on the bills, and the fact remains that delivery was made nine clays after expiration of contract, hence voiding contract prices. The remarkable part of this pe- culiar transaction is that this huge order for oats, even if made before expiration of contract, was about as brazen a bit of imposition on the City that I ever experienced. To fully appreciate the extent of this piece of business, it it only necessary to call attention to the fact that the quantity of oats furnished under these hills constitutes a supply for the entire Fire Department and also the Patrol House of the Police Department un- til late in the month of August, 1910. a nearly seven months' supply in ad- vance of actual needs at sixty cents a bushel when the market price was but forty-five cents per bushel, an unwarranted extra cost to (the City of $245.00 on a bill which totals $979.11. Last year when the contract was about to expire, and when it had ex- pired, and before another one was entered into, orders for oats, orders were limited to actual needs, in small quantities, in fact the then contrac- tor, Kane, informs me that oats were ordered in quantities as small as five bushels, and in no quantity exceeding a wagon load. That was eminently proper and right then, but the course pursued in the case of the bills under consideration was radically wrong. A resolution adopted by your honor- able body on May 22, 1908, provides as follows: "Ist. That all supplies for use of the several departments be purchased through the Committee Clerk, who is hereby constituted the purchasing agent for the City of Dubuque." "2nd. That all requisitions for supplies be first submitted to the Mayor for his approval. "3rd. That the heads of all depart- ments,. all regularly elected officers, when requiring supplies, shall file with the Committee Clerk a reasonable time before such supplies are actually needed, a requisition stating, in the case of heads of departments, the particular object for which such sup- plies are needed and where the same are to be used, which requisition the Committee Clerk shall forthwith sub- mit to the Mayor for his approval, then to the chairman of the particular committee in charge of the depart- ment for which such supplies are re- quired," etc. These requirements were absolute- ly ignored in this case, and the Com- mittee Clerk or rather Purchasing Agent, the designation in the fore- going council resolution given him nor myself, knew anything of thi§ order for a seven months' supply of oafs in advance of actual needs, at a cost i f fifteen cents abushel over the market price, until the bills in controversy were presented for payment. Had this large quantity of oats been order- ed close to or after expiration of con- tract at the market price of oats ;it date of delivery, the action would still have been wrong, but I would interpose no objection boeeuse it would not Involve the City in actual loss. But this matter involves the City in an acutal loss of $245.00 on the proposition, and I refuse to be a party to such an unfair transaction. Let Mr. Haudenschield accept what is fairly and reasonably due to him on the bill at the market price of oats, when he delivered same ($754.33) and there will be no further objection to the proposition even if the quantity furnished was a seven months' supply in advance of actual needs. I therefore hereby veto the motion that carried adopting the report of the Committee of the Whole recom- mending the payment of the bills. Respectfully. H. A. SCHUNii, Mayor. Ald. Frith moved that the veto of the Mayor and the matter of Hauden- schield's hills he referred back to the Committe of the Whole. Mayor Schunk stated that he would waive all rights for immediate action on the veto, vote to be taken on same at the next session of the Council to he held February 17th, 1910. Motion of Aid.

Mayor Schunk then called upon the members of the retiring Council for farewell remarks Ald. Rand read the following: Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen of the Council: In leaving this office, I feel that it is appropriate for me to say a few words as to what my aims and objects have been, and as to what has been accomplished. My aim has al- ways been to make as many improve- ments and repairs as possible, consist- ent with the revenues of the city, and without increasing the burdens of the taxpayers: and this is so as applies to the whole city as well as to my own ward, and while I may have made some mistakes, as all men do, I feel that as a whole I should be proud of the record made in the last two years. I do not think all has been done that was needed, but it was im- possible to perform any more with the revenue at hand, and I feel that I should be pardoned if I mention some of the improvements in my own ward. A long section of West Locust street has been improved, which the people have sought for years, both for the street improvement and the storm sewer. Louisa street has been extended which opens up a large tract of val- uable property. Bennett street, Asbury street and St. Ambrose street have been im- proved. A large pond of water was abated on Fourteenth street, at large ex- pense. A good sized 'stagnant pool in the central part of Woodlawn park has been abated, at very small ex- pense. A large and troublesome pool on Grace street was abolished by fill- ing, at no expense, in fact at a real profit to the city, besides grading an alley. Many other small improvements in the line of street repairs have been made and many other needed ones were not made for the lack of funds. but preparation has been made for doing this kind of work on a large scale this year, with the view that my successor to this term of office, whether it be myself or another, would he better fitted for this work than any before have been. It also affords me much satisfac- tion to know that many of the pub- lic buildings have received needed re- pairs and some improvements. But there are still others in serious need: the Ninth street engine house roof. also the town clock tower and the li- brary roof, etc., will need painting Official Canvass of Votes of Election of April 4th, 1910 NI ( sere.

And now with this somewhat abbreviated statement, I am ready to retire and turn the burdens of this station over to my successor and wish for him and the other members of the new council a prosperous admin- istration. dmin- istration. I have also given serious thought to the question of additional fire protection in the hill district, and L have no doubt that the new council will seek to remedy the present con - clition. Mr. Mayor, I thank the mem- bers of the old council for the cordial relations which i have enjoyed with them and wish for the new council as pleasant relations as we have en- joyed. Aids. Frith, Martin, O'Rourke and Haas then made a few remarks in reference to the work done by the Council in the past two years and expressing their good wishes to the newly elected aldermen for a pros- perous and successful administration of the city's affairs for the ensuing two years. Mayor Schunk then said that it had been a pleasure to him to be connected personally with the mem- bers of the Council and he then de- livered his valedictory which is as follows: Gentlemen of the Council: Before turning over the affairs of the city to my successor, I hope you will par- don me if I take up a few more moments of your time. A few thoughts suggest themselves to me that I am persuaded will not be in- appropriate on this occasion. Many people's judgment of a city government is influenced by their idealistic conception of what a city government should be, while those in active control know but the real city government with its good points as well as its imperfections. In all things in city affairs, of course, there is much that is imperfect. However, what may seem imperfect, may real- ly be as nearly perfect as human im- perfection can make it. You can only follow the past which is certain- tainly extremely valuable to us in every walk of life --its chief value is in interpreting for us the present and giving greater intelligence for the fu- ture. it teaches us partisan clamor and criticism to the contrary, not- withstanding that honest, sincere and thorough effort on our part is not only a great pleasure and satisfaction to ourselves, but will also prove a wholesome example to posterity. Much has been said in the cam- paign recently closed derogatory to myself, but I submit with emphasis the assertion, that for the petty sat- isfaction of self vindication, or per- sonal or political success, I have never planted tares in the field of another's reputation. I have no apologies to offer for any act in my official career of the past four years, and have no regrets whatever. I feel that I have been very kindly treated, and certainly apprec- iate the opportunity afforded me by our people to occupy a niche in the history of my native city. I have been signally honored by my fellow citizens, and fully appre- ciate the courtesies receive,l at their hands. L have had and have thor- oughly enjoyed my yesterday, and tender my heartfelt thanks to the citizens of Dubuque for the favor of the privilege of serving them two terms as mayor. Mayor ~chunk stepped down to where Ald. Haas sat and escorted him to the mayor's rostrum, from where he introduced him as Du- buque's next mayor. He then admin- istered the oath of office. Mayor Haan then read his inaug- ural address which is as follows: I feel greatly honored this evening to take my place as mayor of our city. Having been eleeted as the result of a non-partisan movement. I feel that I owe my el etion to no one party. but to the po•olde. Dur- ing my term as Alderman-at-h•ge it was always my aim to give all mat- ters careful consideration and to do what I thought was for the best in- terest of the whole_ city and not to be influenced by political or personal feeling. As mayor, i will try to act as I have in the past and will always have but one object in view, and that will be to do what I think best for the city. I wish to thank Mr. Schunk and the members of the retiring ,ouncil for the many kind things they have done for me and to assure them that I will always cherish the friendships I have made while I worked with them as a member of the council. To the now council, I extend hearty greetings and best wishes for the fu- ture. I hope that during the term we may all work together in harmony with but one object in view, and that will be a greater and a better Du- buque. Mayor Haas then called all the newly elected aldermen before the desk of the City Recorder and admin- istered to them the oath of office. The members are as follows: Alderman -at -Large Apel, of the First ward. Alderman -at -Large Sauer, of the Fifth ward. Ald Saul, of the First ward. Ald. O'Rourke, of the Second ward. Ald.
