In accordance with the instructions
heretofore given by the council l have
opened a complete set of books which
will at all times show the exact cost Of
maintaining the several departments OF
the city government, as well as the as
sets and liabilities. In order to carry
out this system correctly all paid war
rants and stubs of licenses and receipts
OF the treasurer should be returned to
this office not later than the first day OF
each month.
| would recommend that the city en-.
gineer be required to ne with me his
monthly pay roll on the first day of each
month, statement showing exactly
where the work has been done and for
what purpose material has been pur-
chased, 80 as to enable this Office to keep
an accurate account of the work done
under the supervision of that depart
ment, it being essential that the council
may know at any time the cost of any
improvement for which special improve
ment taxes may be levied on.
/ find that there has been denoted to
the city by the Naleria Library associa-
tion property valued at $7,097.50; also
by the Great Falls Water Power and
Townsite company about 100 acres Of
land for parks along the river front. As
these two items should appear upon the
city ledger I ask the council to appraise
them. Respectfully submitted,
C. II. CLARK, City Clerk.
