satisfactory condition. The Of
fees of the sheriff and auditor are
spacious enough 10 admit of the
work being done in quick and
methodical manner, but We recon-
mend to the honorable board of
county commissioners that the
treasurer and county clerk be pro-
yided with additional room to re-
lieye the congested condition of
these offices. This recommends
ton as to the county clerks Office
is being complied with at the pres
ent time.
AS to the treasurers office; We
find that the providing of addi-
tiCnal room is impracticable under
existing conditions, and we suggest
that the honorable board of coun-
ty commissioners seriously cen
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of building
an addition or annex to the pres
ent building in which suitable Of
fees for the treasurer could be
provided In this connection we
would strongly urge the installa-
ton Of a suitable heating plant in
the court house. The addition or
annex recommended above could be
made to house the heating plant
and the office of the treasurer,
II was found that the cast wall
Of the city fire house was in
dangerous condition owing to the
pressure of the dirt forcing in the
wall and it is recommended that
this wall be braced Immediately to
relieve the strain and prevent the
wall from being further weakened
by the pressure.
The public buildings were found
to be clean, we'll kept and in sat-
isfactory condition. 1t is recon-
mended, however, that the side
exits OF the Nevada theater build
ing be enlarged to the width of
eight feet, with doors opening out
ward, and these exits indicated by
the usual lights, to allow the build
! ing to be quickly cleared in case
of fire.
1t is the desire of the grand jury
to commend the officials of the
county hospital upon it's neat, clean
appearance, and the efficient man
ner in which it is being conducted,
thus adding to the ease and COM
| fort of its inmates.
SANITATION.
The committee on sanitation re-
port that number of cess pools
and vaults were found to be in a
very undesirable condition. Notice
was given to the property owners
by the proper authorities and these
evils corrected. In some cases
where it was impossible to notify
the owners of the Objectionable
condition, the health officer was
requested to declare such places a
nuisance and instruct the authori-
ties to fill up or otherwise correct
the evil as being dangerous to pub
lie health and morals.

reports that all county offices are

economical manner. The sheriff'S

accounting of all monies received

penditures of the various funds il

heretofore. The system of account
ing in the treasurer's Office is also
being improved so as to include ;
more complete and satisfactor!
record of the affairs of this Office
