FIRST YEAR IS Up.
WaterwOrks Has Been Under
Control Of Trustees.
No Provision Made for an An
nual Report.
PEOPLE ARE ANXIOUS.
Like to Know Exactly What
Has Been Done.
No Doubt About Financial Sue
cess of Enterprise.
PEOPLE ARE ANXIOUS.

Ending with August s, 1905, the
waterworks will have been under the
management of the present board of
waterworks trustees for one year. The
board was appointed on the evening
of August z, and assumed charge the
following day.
An annual report of the expendi-
lures, receipts, and the Improvements
in detail made during the year, to-
gether with recommendation should
be presented to the council by the
board at the expiration of its years
tenure of office. The annual report
should become a regular part of its
proceedings and should be arranged
to give graphically and in simple
manner the history of its conduct OF
this important department of the
city
It is probable that if the board of
trustees do not upon their own
initiative decide to compile an an
nual report that the council will make
a request upon them for such a re-
port. The management of the water
works under municipal supervision is
largely in the experimental stage as
far as Topeka is concerned, though
the record SO far is a gratifying one.
Nothing has created quite the interest
among the citizens of Topeka that the
taking over of the waterworks by the
city has aroused. Taxpayers are in
tensely interested to know whether it
is going TO be paying investment.
They want to know what money is
coming in, what is going out and
where and what for. They want to
know If there is an increase in busi-
ness; they would like to ask what i'm
prOVements have been put in, because
they can't remember from day to day
what Improvements are scheduled in
the newspapers They would like all
of trustees. over the signatures of the
trustees
There is no occasion to criticise the
board of trustees for its management.
In fact almost without exception the
councilmen are backing the board up
and express themselves of the opinion
that a better personnel for the board
| could not be selected.
The annual report should be issued
simply as a part Of an important bust
ness management. A business of any
degree of magnitude attempts to make
some sort Of annual report, 1t is recog-
nized as an essential to growth. s
The waterworks department of the
city is the biggest single industry in
which the city is interested. It has an
Investment of upwards of $650,O0O,
represented in that industry.
An annual report in pamphlet form
should be issued during August, and
annually thereafter, or with the ending
of the fiscal year for the city which
ends with March 31st. In the present
] instance if the fiscal year should be
chosen as the more suitable time to is
sue annual reports, it might be well to
supplement it by issuing one during
/ August of this year, since no report
! "a hpcro made since the a
! come to the city.
Recommendations as to further i'm
| provements could be embodied very
suitably as a portion of the report.
