MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
Reports OF the Mayor, Sergeant, and
Treasurer.

Treasurer.
Below we give extracts from the re-
ports of the city officials which show
that the financial affairs of Martins
burg have been most admirably man
aged during the past year. Mayor
Wilson is somewhat disgruntled be-
cause more has not been accomplish
ed and so expresses himself Happi-
ly the differences between the various
members of the council and the may
or are not political, an indication that
the several gentlemen have ideas of
their own and are not controlled by
anyone.
Mayor J. B. Wilson in his annual
report to the councilIsays: I'm render
ing the report of affairs of the good
city of Martinsburg for the twelve
months past, you will find by the re-
ports of the Sergeant that collections
have been unusually good consider
ing the depressed times, and that
there has been over 81, 800 90 more
water rents collected during the year
than the one previous and that the
contract for keeping the city clear of
ashes and garbage has saved the city
over 81 900. 90 as compared with the
amount paid the previous year. The
amount received from fines during
the year was S5eS.oo as against S257.-
90 for the year previous. The Treas
urer, Sergeant, and Clerk give COM
plete account of all moneys collected
and from what source received and |
how expended, each department be-
ing charged with the amount spent |
upon it. Each and all ofthese officers
have faithfully and efficiently fulfilled
the trust reposed in them.
The law and order of the city out
side of the council has been good and
am sorry l cannot say as much for
that inside. Rather than have rep
clifton of last years performances, our.
peers, the voters of the city itrespect-
i've of party should treat us to a ride
on rail and dump US into the creek
We promised great things year ago
what we were going to debut
what has been done towards the
growth and advancement of the city?
Absolutely nothing"
