Aid. C. §L A. t'.je has buckled on his fighting armor and is hot on the trail of the authorities who have proposed that brick shall be substituted for sti.ti- In the construction of the new 74th Reginii-fit Armory, yesterday he rallied his colleagues to hla support. He had a set of resolutions porstd which put the Aldermen on record against the use of brick. It was declared that a brick Armory would be a detriment and a defacement to,the section of the city in which the Artm.ry is to be built. There w a s a storm »f opposition to the proposition to substitute brick. The Aldermen will fight it bitterly. Aid, Goes resolutions were as follow a: Whereas, In February. 1835, this Common Council, after due- and mature deliberation, and upon the assurance that tli, State of New York would grant an appropriation of $40o,t»0o for the erection of an Armory, ,,f stone const ru.-i b n, in the city of Buffalo, f,,r the use of the Tith Regiment, upon the old reservoir site, bounded by Niagara street. Prospect avenue, Vermont and Connecticut streets, if the said Common Council would cede to the State such land then vested in it, did provisionally so cede and dedicate such land, being in one of the most desirable resident portions of the city, and j-ossossing a very high in- trinsic value, situated, a* it is, practically in the heart of the West Sid-; and, - - - - _-...•___ Whereas, Such amount has actually ben appropriated by the autheniites J at Albany fur such enstruotton, haying in contemplation the use ,,f stone f alone, for the masonry thereof; but. Whereas, It has recently developed that representations have been mad,, to the State authorities- that K will be impracticable to construct said Armory for the said sum of money, if the construction is to be of solid masonry, and recommending that, instead of stone, brick be substituted; therefore.

As to the market revenues, the NEWS deliberately misstates when It says the schedule of fees has not been increased. The schedule of fees and rents has been largely increased, and the number of stalls and spaces to be rented has been increas- ed, Fact IV—The Inane of School llonds. The expenditure for school buildings has been almost entirely paid for by the issue Of bonds, and no credit can attach to any person or party that sells the city's credit. Xow let us sec what there is in this curiously compounded defense of Dem- ocratic extravagance and Inefficiency, ••Fact I—'Increase of the Bonded IJebt.'" The true criterion as to the cost of, t h e municipal government is the tax rate, for bonds are rarely, If ever, issued for the purpose of raising money to pay the running expenses of the city (altogether Democratic administration, during ISM, did issue bonds of the city to the amount of $l,ri00,000, to provide funds for the running expenses of the city for six months of that fiscal year, and the taxpayers of the present day are re- quired to pay into the treasury each year about $160,00(1, to apply on the payment of those bonds), but they are Issued to pay for improvements, and to provide money to reimburse the treas- ury for Unpaid taxes. The bonded debt during the last two fiscal years of Republican rule has in- creased fl,K8,S63.1S, and has been used to build school hOU»e», for grade cross- ings improvements, for South Buffalo flood work, for park improvements and to provide money to reimburse the treasury for unpaid taxes, but if the Republican administration has run the city In debt, as the Times claims, how about the former Democratic adminis- tration? During their rule the- bonded debt of the city increased t2,-77,779.,14. "Fact II—'That I'ollce He(lcit.' " The largest amount of the $300,000 de- ficit which appeared when the Republi- can administration went into otflc'-, was created during the year W3, as the de- partment ran behind about $200,000 dur- ing that year, and the appropriations for that year were passed upon b y a Democratic Common Council, and was caused, principally, by the placing In the estimates of an estimated credit of $150,000, which they, at that time, claim- ed would remain In the fund from the former year, as an overplus, while, In fact, when the end of the fiscal year ar- rived, there was an overdraft, or de- ficit, of $17,746.00. So far as the Republican Common Counelt for 1894 Is concerned, in connec- tion With the deficit, by reference to the appropriations for that year It wilt be found that the Common Council did not materially change the estimates which were submitted to them by the Demo- cratic Comptroller for that year, so that no blame can be attached to them for not having appropriated enough money to run the Police Department, nor can blame be attached to Comptroller Gavin, M the estimates submitted by him to the Common Council were prttctically aa re- ceived by his department from the po- lice' commtesloners, ••met III--'Market Mental Increawi.•" Tha Republican administration has Increased the fees of the markets slight- ly, far which they al»o claim credit, but the Increase in the fees does not by any means account for the great increase In tha receipt* of the markeU, which has been an Increase of almost 100 per cent, under Republican rule, whlta the alight Increase in the tees would not of it- self Increase tha revenues more than 10 per cent., or, at the very outside, 15 per cant.
