| Gentlemen: By authority from the Com
| mon COuOcll lne BOARD Oh fuDllC w OTkS HAS,
| for the past seven or eight years. been pub
| fishing the minutes of the proceedings OF
| said Board III the official paper, at cost OF
| about 81, 900 per year. In addition, said mill
| utes were set up in book form and about 200
| copies bound, at an expense of about 500 or
| 500 per year.
The minutes for the year 1890 have been
| published and set up in book form up TO
| Oct. s, 1899. The Board has ordered the pub
ication of the minutes discontinued as
matter OF economy.
The matter of setting the minutes up in book
| form up TO Oct. s. 1890 has incurred an ex-
pense of about 1925. If the balance OF the
| year. up to Jan. 1, 1891, is completed, and
| the usual number, 20J copies. bound, 1t will
| incur an additional expense of about S300,
| making the cost of 200 copies OF the minutes
| complete about 500.
The Board is of tine opinion that this would
| be useless expense, not enough OF these
| books being used to warrant the expense:
| The Board would therefore respectfully
| recommend that the minutes that are now
| set up in book form (up to Oct. :, 1SjO,) be
| abandoned and that no further expense
| be incurred in publishing or binding the
! minutes of said Board.
The Board await further instructions from
| your honorable body in said matter.
