To the Honorable Board of Super
yisors of the county of Amador, State
of California:
Gentlemen-I hereby submit the fol-
lowing report OF my investigation of the
BOOKS OF accounts OF county officers OF
this county for the years 1897, 1898
1899 and 1900, under the terms of my
contract made with the county through
its Board of Supervisors on the Sd day
of December, 1900:
SHERIFF AND TAX COLLECTOR.
L have found that for the year ending
May 10. 1897, there was charged up to
U. s. Gregory, tax collector, the sum
of $780, 63l.31 on the assessment roll for
1887 Tor State and county taxation upon
real and personal property, and that
this amount was duly settled for with
the County Auditor within the time
required bylaw. The amount of de-
ling cent taxes, $s76S. AZ and. the amount
paid 9Treasurer making the correct
balance for the fiscal year ending May
10, 1897; that for the year ending May
10, 1898, he. was charged with $50, SOL. :
80, rolls balanced by the amount of de-
linquent taxes, S574334, and the
amount of cash paid Treasurer; that
for'the year ending May II, 1899, he
was charged with $s1, 354. 81, rolls bal
anced by the amount of delinquent
taxes, S5623. 16, and the amount of cash
paid Treasurer; that for the year end
ing May 16, 1901, he was charged with
S84. 794. 60, rolls were balanced by the
amount of the delinquent taxes, S5434. =
09, and the amount of cash paid Treas
urer.,
l have very carefully checked the
several amounts above mentioned and
am satisfied that the amount of taxes
charged to the tax collector for each
year is correct, with the exception of
the year 1899, when no State delinquent
poll taxes we're entered upon the roll
by the assessor, and therefore, none
collected by the tax collector The
tax collector has settled in full with the
County Auditor and paid to the Treas
urer all moneys due from him as tax
collector for taxes received during the
period that this report includes.
AS License Collector U. S. Gregory
collected the following amounts, to-wit:
In 1897, 800; in 1893, $7972. 40; in
1899, s8048.O5; in 1900, s912O. so; total
of S31, 1885.
1 have carefully compared his ac-
counts with those of the Auditor and
find that all unused licenses which he
has received from the Auditor from
time to time have been returned, and
that all, the proceeds of the licenses
that have been sold have been paid to
the Treasurer, less the commissions al
lowed by law to the license collector.
AS none of the persons firms, corpora
tions, ETC., subject to the license tax
have been carrying ON business with
out license, or without having paid
the license tax, Mr.. Gregory has not
found it necessary to furnish your
Honorable Board with the monthly
list of delinquents mentioned in Section
7 of the license ordinance,
l have checked the Sheriff's Office in
connection with the fees charged and
amounts paid into the treasury, and in
cases where the amounts received do
not correspond with amount paid
Treasurer find that Mr.. Gregory has
overpaid the sum of 1886, as appears
by the annexed statement:
