cry thirty days. II mat we're done,
the board would have received $1,000

analysed statement in detail taken
from the city ledger shows the ac-
count for the period in question, and is
explanatory, and refutes the said
statement. 1t shows payments of
large sums in anticipation of the set
Element period, far in excess OF the
few occasions when there was an over
due on small amounts which had not
been called FOR, and the balance by
average is much in excess for antici-
patton. AS q matter OF truth and fact,

The treasurer merely acts upon the
order Of the mayor and council and
the city'8 books show that the ac-
counts between the city and the board
have been paid over by the mayor and
council within the period prescribed
by law as promptly as the spirit and
letter Of The law coulG uesire. There
has been two Instances, January 1915
and Jan. 1916 WITHIN period Of four
years, when the cash balance in the

lieu oil the income from the commons
and the special App opriationS, under
the arrangement known as the CONVEX
sion oil town commons leases to fee

The percentage levied for the boards
account was as follows: In 1912, 20
IL cents or the hundred dollars; Ill
1913, so cents on the hundred dollars;
i'll 1914, 30 cents On the hundred dol

dollars. and so ably has the board ad
minister cd its affairs tnat the deficit
which on January [, 1912, was $l3,
339.03 has been reduced according to
the 1919 statement TO $4,921.1l on
Jan. l 1916. The balance due on No
vember and December 1915 tax cOllec-

reduce this deficit TO $492111 by De-

about $4,7U0 in sight iii 1916, less
than 1900 will more than equal their
revenues for 1915 i'll which this good
showing vas made, and as levy OF
20 cents On the hundred dollars will
Yield more than $l40J0, we may eX-
pect il the wisdom OF the board that
the levy to be made for their account
in 1916 will not exceed a percentage
of 20 cents on the hundred.
We recommend that the financial
statement fer the year 1915 be pub
