To the Honorable Councils of the City of Lebanon Unable to fully express my gratitude to the electors of the City of Lebanon for the honor conferred in electing me to the mayoralty, I am at the same time aware of the responsibility the honor imposes, and by devoting my time and best efforts to a proper administration of the office, I hope to retain their confidence. In submitting my fust message to your honorable bodies it will not be necessary for me to call your attention to the important Improvements our city seems to be in need of for its further advancement, on account of my predecessor having lately submitted a very-full and complete messago calling attention to these needed improvements. Tho most important matter requiring immediate action is our water supply, and while efforts are now being made for increasing it by artesian wells, it would be money wasted for nie at this time to advocate anything but thorough testing of increasing the supply in this way; however, money may be saved, if we were to continue drilling, to employ a competent engineer, who should have full charge, locate the places where the holes are to be put down, and not allow well drillers to select their own particular place. By adopting this plan we may finally settle the question whether we will be able to increase it by wells, or botcompelled to seek another source. It is necessary that we lose no time, so that when the expected annual dry season is upon us, our citizens will not bo again compelled to have tho filthy water of the Quitta-pahilhv forced on them, as a result of divided opinion, or slow action.

POLICE. The increase of our police force has been agitated for soino few years past without any action by councils. Oa account of it being absolutely necessary to have an increased force. In order to give our citizens the proper protection from recurrence of the late rob-berios, and the frequent brawls at night on our streets and in some of our public places, which should bo checked at once, aud can ouly be accomplished in this way, I would ask that you grant me the authority of adding at least eight to ton additional officers to your present force. CITY ARCHIVES.

The archives of the city seem to be in a de plorable condition, no one at present being able to say where the ordinances and laws in force can be found, as has lately been demonstrated. Unless something is done to get them In proper shape, it will be 1111 possi rile for your mayor to carry them out as passed. Let me uree that you have tbein all com piled in book form as soon as possible, and hereafter annually have theui, together with the proceedings of Councils and the Mayor messages, bound iu booK form, tho same as other progressive cities of the samo class ub ours have been doing. Conclusion: The other needful improve ments, such as streets, sewerage, sidewalks. city hall, lire alarm, will lie presented later messages to be submitted from time to time as you may convene.

Respectfully yours, JOHN A. WEIMER. Mayor. The bond of Mayor Weimer in the sum of $2,000 was approved. Mayor Weimer presented the following appointments for policemen: Wm.
