In submitting my annual report. IS re-
ouired by Law, ! have deemed Il proper
that the taxpayers and citizens should be
informed Of the condition Of the town and
Its financial standing ct the present time.
The finances OF the town are In . healthy
condition. considering the dullness Of bust.
ness the past year. The revenue from the
different branches Of business has consid.
erably decreased. and were II not for the
eurtailment OF the running expenses OF
the town In the beginning Of the year. and
the strictest economy on the part Of the
Town Trustees. the town debt would have
been increased instead Of lessened.
Tho water works and everything con-
nected with them IL In excellent condi'
ton. The hydrants and mains have been
kept In the best working order.
The streets are all In good repair. and
have been kept 90 with very little expense
10 the town. Tho sewers are all In good
order. Az the cost Of new sewers and re-
pairs on old onss 10 always very heavy, the
Board have not done any work upon such
only where there was sxtreme necessity.
The officers Of the town have been faith.
ful and energetic In the discharge Of their
duties. The police force. though small.
has done much In keeping Oh that element
which 10 so much annoyance 70 every
community. Dangerous and suspicious
characters have had but little opportunity
10 prowl around In q midst, and our
people have much reason to DO thankful
thai thsir intsrests are % we'll guarded BY
such an efficient police force.
The Fire Companies. 10 whom 10 In
trusted tho aafety Of our property from
are, deserve some notice ct this time
Their activity and efficiency at all timei
when their services were needed has beer
In keeping with their past record, and
| might safely say that no volunteer fire
department ON the coast can surpass our
for promptness and activity.
In conclusion, ! will state that / sin
cerely thank the members Of the Board,
one and all, for the very able manner In
which they have at all times assisted mt
In the management Of town Affairs. That
unity and good will which has existed
among them, together with . strong desire
to serve the best interests Of the town. hai
made my position a. President OF tn.
Board most agreeable. Al Q new Board o.
Trustees will soon commence their labors
feel Il my duty 10 call their attention V
the economy which has been prscticed By
the retiring Board Of Trustees, ~ th'
prospects are that the revenues from taxa
bio property. owing TO the extreme dull
ness Of the times will be much loss thai
they have been the last year. Very respect
fully, l.. T. Fox

AN AIM.
GIVE me a man with an aim,

GIVE me man with an aim,
Whatever that aim may be-,
Whether its wealth or whether Its fame,
II matters not to me.
Let him walk iu the paths Of right
And keep his name in sight,
And work and play In faith AWAY
With his eye on the gitterns height.
Give me man who says,
will do something well,
And make the hceting days
A story Of labor tell.
Though the aim he has bs small
It's better than none at all
With something to do the whole year tbron'
He will not stumble or fall.
But Satan weaves q snare,
For the feet Of those who stray, "a
With never thought or care
Where the path may lead away
Tie man who has no aim
Net only fouves no name,
When this life is done, bat ter to one,
Heleaves q record of shame.
Give me man whose heart
Is filled with ambitions Gre:
Who sets his mark in the start,
And keeps moving 1t higher and higher.
Better to die in the strife,
The hands with labor rife,
Than to guide the stream in m idle dream,
And live a purposeess He.
Better to strive and to climb
And never reach the goal,
Than to drift alon. with time
An aimlcss, worthless soul,
Aye, better to climb and fall,
Or sow, though the yield be snail
Than to throw away day after day,
And never strive at all
