In submitting my annual report, ~ re-
quired by law. have deemed IL proper
that the taxpayers and citizens should be
informed Of the condition OF tho town and
It's financial standing at tho present time.
The finances OF the town are In very
healthy condition. considering the extreme
dullness OF business the past year.
The revenue from the different branches
OF business has boon steadily on Tho do
crease tho past year. and tho Board OF
Trustees have been governed In expendi.
tures accordingly. Five thousand dollars
OF the town debt have been liquidated.
In the different departments tho greatest
care have been taken by the Committees to
have the running expenses OF the town a.
low as they could possibly bs made and
satisfy the citizens at large.
The water works and everything con.
nected with them arc In the very best Of
order. The Chief Engineer Of the Fire
| Department has been very vigilant In look.
ing after the hydrsnts and mains, and
keeping them in good condition.
The streets have been we'll attended to
and kept In good order.
Tho officers Of the town have been faith
| ful and energetic in the discharge Of their
duties. Tho police have been vigilsnt In
guarding tho interests Of the town and
keeping away suspicious characters who
are always watching for opportunities 70
practice their nefsrious business.
The Fire Department arc deserving oi
much praise for the able and efficient man.
ner in which they have acquitted them
| selves on all occasions when their services
were REQUIRED. ! trust the people Of Gold
| Hill will continue to have their interests
guarded In the future by a. an efficient
body Of firemen a. those who have guarded
| them In the past.
In conclusion, would say that oul
duties a. Board Of Town Trustees will
soon be at an end. The people Of Gold
Hill arc soon 70 have change OF govern
ment, the last Legislature disincorporatine
the town and passing the Consolidation
bill, BY which the city OF Virginia and The
town Of Gold Hill havo been consoli'
dated. with the county Of Storey In one
government. Il was the opinion Of those
advocating the measure that the interests
Of all concerned would be furthered By
having one government instead Of three
Al IL 10 bat An experiment, 10 remains u
be seen what advantages. II any. will bt
gained 10 the business portion Of the town
By the change. II will, In my estimation
be found necessary by the incoming ad
ministration 10 exercise the greatest dis
cretion in the Management Of Affairs fol
the coming year.
The revenue from taxable property will
be very much less than what Il WAS las,
year, and 10 likely to continue decreasing
unless some developments In the minel
would give new aspect TO Affairs.
I sincerely thank the members Of ths
Board for the very able manner In which
thew have assisted me In the management
Of town Affairs. Being compelled BY othel
business 70 absent myself good deal from
the town and from the meetings Of tht
Board, I feel grateful for the indulgen,
spirit manifested toward me by the mem
bers. In closing your labors you can fec
a lust pride within yourselves that yor
have had at al times the best interests d
The town at heart. Your labon have bssr
