able, and find that the recent
auditing committee, has done its
Work in a systematic way, and the
deficiency has been restored to the
city for a period of ’four years.
We find that the council has
been conducting its business with
very little system, until the recent
city election, and .we find that
they have inaugurated a system
by which proper 'check can be
made. But we suggest that the
Honorable Mayor apoint an audit-
ing committee to go over the wa-
ter and light accounts, so if rthere
is any deficiency, that proper
steps can be taken to recover same.
We have visited the poor farm
and find the inmates all cheerful,

well managed. We have inspect-
