On principle, i am opiiosed to spending money before wc get it. llerpich—I am already hampered in my ward by the debt which 1 lind uiionit. Chairman Farrelly-When the coutract for stone for First Ward was made, the money was iu the treasury, but it was afterwards used hi other ways. llerpich—The balance to creillt of my ward at last iiieedng was over t^itM), and I now liud it reduced to (su a by some geueral expense eliat^^es. t say It Is all wrung. 1 want t o know wliere 1 stand.
