Magistrate compIimented.

In the cases of the reports of all of
the officers the auditor speak highly
of the manner in which the books have
been kept. In the books of Police
Magistrate c. J. Smith, he particularly
shows that they were well kept
He states that the report of the mag
istrate was carefully made and that
that official maintained his books in an
efficient manner. He further says that
the remittances of the magistrate were
promptly made and that there is $50
due him from overpayment to the city
of costs. Besides, the report goes on
further to say. there is a large number
of costs not paid to him for cases tried
by him.
The fees collected by the magistrate
for the fiscal year were s3.416.0O and
costs collected S2SS.OO, a total of
S3.6O4.OO.
In speaking of the city clerks Office
he states that with the increase in
work handled through the office and
with no extra clerk hire the books
have been given careful attention. He
made several recommendations which
would facilitate the work.
The report further shows the follow
ing receipts of the various officials for
the past year:
Plumbing inspector So, 32S. 90
Building permits ...-..-.- 1,945.23
Electrical permits ..... 310.62
Chief of police (dog taxi ..... 1,109.90
Makes Suggestions.
Mr.. Becker made certain sugges-
tions in the case of each official rela-
tive to the books, but he complimented
each on the manner in which the rec
ords were maintained. In conclusion he
thanked the officials for the co-opera-
ton they gave him.
Mr.. Becker's work was highly salts
factory. But few changes were made
and his report was clear and distinct,
composed in a manner that any per-
son could understand and not a mass
of ineXplainable figures.
The report was submitted to the
council at its regular session yesterday
afternoon and was ordered placed on
file. 1t will likely be adopted at the
next regular session a week hence.
