THE BRUNSWICK TIMEH-CALL. TUESDAY JANUARY 7. 1902 CONTINUED EKOM FIRST PAGE, Salary of jailor $ too 00—not quite twelve months. Utentils and implements 45 95 Clothing and bedding.. 27 25 Fuel, lights and water.. 24 75 Feeding prisoners 401 14 $1,084.09 It will be seen at a glance that as the cost of feeding was slightly over $400.00 that the salary paid the Jailor formerly was mote than $1,800.00 per annum. In addition to this a certain percentage of the marks and brands formerly went to the Jailor. It now goes into the citv treasury. From the miscel laneous account we find that*in 1900,marks brands and impound ing fees turned into the city treasury were $518.85, in 1901 they were $050.20. As thsse Items run about the same each year the excess for 1901 over 1900 of 1130.35 about represents the tees that would have gone to the Jailor under the old system. The wisdom of the present system is at once apparent and under careful management will aiways prove a saver to the city. We would recommend that Jailor Brown’s salary be raised as lie bas given entire satisfaction and fairly earned the increase. Respectfully submitted, J, C. CALHOUN, Chairman Police and Fire Department. A. M. SMITH. PURCHASING COMMITTEE. Brunswick, Ga., December 31st, 1901. J o the Mayor and Council, City of Brunswick. Gentlemen:—ln making contracts and purchasing supplies for the year 1901, your committee ha? adopted a uniform custom of obtaining quotations and bids from all sources and of placing our orders with the lowest responsible parties. All expenditures involving more than $25.00 have been first referred to council, So that, as a body, we have at ail times known approximately what our expenditures would be. Preference has been given to the city merchants, but of necessity we have been obliged to purchase outside of the city sometimes and your committee has, at ail times, exercised the strictest economy consistent with quality. Respectfully, T. NEWMAN, Chairman Purchasing Committee. J. E. duBIGNON. W. R. COX. DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION, f outlie Honorable Mayor and Alderman, City of Brunswick: Gentlemtu—We herewith submit report ol the Sanitary De partment for the year 1901, covering from Jjnuarvl2to Dec. 31,1901,11 month and 18 days. PAY ROLL. Engineer pumping station, per month $75 Sanitary Inspector, per month r>o Eight regular hands, each per day 1 One man and team, lor hauling trash, etc., per day 1.75 t otal expenses 11 months and 18 days $8,834 80 Average per month 589 10 Average for year 1899, per month 894 23 Average for year 19(X>, per month 978 38 Avery gratifying reduction ot $305.07 average per month over 1 ■*'99, and $389.22 average per month over ltoxt. l his depart ment shows the largest decrease in running expenses, and the sanitary conditions are as good as at any time in the past ten years- 1 his department uses a large quantity of supplies for feedstuff, fuel at the pumping station and crematory, and a ma terial factor in the decrease in expense was the valuable services of Alderman Newman of the purchasing committee. Die property belonging to this branch of the city government is inventoried in the report of Chief Green, who is also superin tendent of sanitation. All officials and employes in this department deserve com men datiou for the faithful service rendered the city. Respectfully, W. R. COX, Chai.man Committee on Sanitation. J. E. duBIGNON. TAXES AND REVENUES. Brunswick, Ga., December 31st, 19**1. I o the Mayor and Council, City of Brunswick, Ga. Gentlemen:—During 1901 your committee on Taxes and Revenues Fiat investigated about twenty-five cases where parties had overpaid taxes by reason ot erroneous returns and assess ments and failure to notify theclerk of change In ownership of realty. I liese claims were In nearly every instance well found ed. We have refunded between *400.00 and *500.00 on this account. I here are no claims now before us for adjustment. Respectfully, R. E- BRIfcSENICK, Chairman Committee on Taxes and Revenues. T. NEWMAN. A. M. SMITH. PUBLIC WORKS. Brunswick, Ga.. December 31st, 1901. to the Hon. Mayor and Aldermen, City of Brunswick, Ga. Gentlemen: Your committee on Public Works begs to submit annual report for 1901. Since June 1901 the City Marshal, S. A. Burney, has been acting as super intendent without any compensation, except the feed bill for his horse. The duties have been faithfully discharged and the thanks of the council are due him. The present working force consists of one guard tor the convicts at a salary of *50.00 per month and nine regular hands at 11.00 per day each. The city chaingang is worked under direction of this department. The total cost of this department in 1901 has been *0934 54 for eleven months and eighteen days; an average of per month of *591.00 against *599.73 for 1H99 and *050.09 for 1900. We have expend ed something over *900.00 for shelling the streets and repairing them and while the streets are in better condition than lor some two or three years back we need permanent paving tor them. We have been obliged to go slow as the finances would not per mit any extensive improvements. We have the city’s finances in good shape now and I would lecommend that at least *U>,- 000.00 be spent In 1902 for permanent, substantial streets, the tax lots, owned by the city, would, In my judgment, it put up at public sale bring us in that much revenue It it cannot be provided for otherwise. An Inventory ot the cltv’s property in the hands of this department will be found In the City Marshal’s report. Respectfully, r. NEWMAN, Acting Chairman Public Works Committee. A. M. SMITH.

Gentlemen:—l have collected no lees since June Ist,! by instructions of city attorney, on account of avoiding law suits. I have furnished berths and settled numbers of dis putes, (have been called times to haul vessels and regulate the same. I have ( >f Ballast and seen that same was to Harbor Regula tions. I find the docks in fair condition, mR a great many have neither ring bolts, piling or cleats to moor vessels to, which necessarily ought to be furnished, as it makes the mooring ot vessels very difficult for Masters and Pilots. I find that ihe water at fronts of docks and in the dredged channels holds good. I have had no violation on river front to report but one, and that case was reported to the marshal. Hoping this will prove sat isfactory, I remain, Respectfully, B. A; FAH.M, Harbor Master.
