Abstract of Receipts and Expenditures from Juy 1, 1880, to July 1, 1887. To correct an erroneous opinion which seems to prevail in the minds of some of taxpayers, that the present Board of Supervisors are extravagant inthe disbursement of the funds of the county over which they have control, there has,.at their request, been prepared from the books and reports of the Auditor and Treasurer the following abstracts, covering a period of seven yearsjefrum July 1st, 1880 to July lst, 1887. ° The summaiies are grouped in fiscal years, that is, July let to July Ist for convenience to correspund with the books and reports. The Special and Hospital funds of 1880 were united with the General fund in 1880 and are in this statement salaries of the county officers were paid from the General fund prior to June 1883, when the Salary fund was established as provided by law, but for convenience and as they are so closely connected by reason of transfers of funds, they are_united in this comparison. The State fund and School fund not being under the control of the Board of Supervisors, no mention will be made of those funds. At the commencement: of the fiscal year 1880-1, viz:-July1st, 1880, the General fund; after allowing the bills which had accrued at that date against it, shows an indebtedness of $4,783.16 Che-General Road fund correspondingly at same date after allowing -$12,285.76 in payment of bills of preceding quarter shows an indebtedness, exclusive of interest, of The condition of the Road district funds at same date was as follows: First Road District indebtedness, $ 854 77 gs 17,109.57 Second ‘“ bs 290 52 Third ‘* se as 1,010 06 Fourth ‘“ ee ee 946 04 Fifth “ AD bs 889 02 Making total indebtedness, July 1, 18380, $25,883 14 This indebtedness continued to increase until 1883, when $50,000 of bonds were issued and at the close of the fiscal year 1882-3 the indebtedness was, bonds $50,000; other claims allowed $1,941.10; it being estimated that this latter amount would be paid from delinquent taxes, The assessment roll for the respective years has been as follows: Fiscal year, eat $9,064,090 881-2 8,607,672 “6 -4gga-8, 7,478,674 1888-4, 7020, . 1888-7, 4,996,549 The amounts of the fast five years being exclusive of the railroad assessments made by the State Board of Equalization and not by the county Assessor.

It will also be“seen that while the county indebtedness at the commencement of the fiscal year 1880—1 was $25,893.14 which was increased, even while the assessment roll -was large, to nearly. $52,000. in July 1883, xetein the four years last past, enough revenue has been provided to entirely cancel the indebtedness notwithistahaing the assessment roll has been rapidly decreasing during that time. The taxpayers can judge from the foregoing whether the finances of the county have been economically managed. The amount of money received by the Supervisors for salaries and mileage for the respective calendar years commencing January 1st, 1876, is as follows: : sesso es» $108,696 80 ¥r. lst Dis, 2d Dis. 8d Dis. 4th Dis. 5th Dis 1876 $322 96 $242 90 $826 60 $362 80 $364 60 1877 844 80> 2y2 50 86926940 362 30 435 60 1878 25400 287 28040 22005 842 60 1879 $20 00 © 382 858 40 348 40.20 1880 583 25 555 50 456 0@ 518 80. 6y2 00 1881 434.50 624 80 48000 531 50 654 85 1882 6¥1 50 644 20. 633 00 662 20 734 20 1883 413-00 438 20 44100 452 20 629 00 1884 47200 45440 45760 48240 619 20 1885 35200 85709 386660 3861 00 866 00 1886 416 00 43100 418 00 436 60 435 60 In addition to the above received by each member during the several years, each member has received -$300 per annum as Road Commissioner. From the above, the taxpayers Gan judge whether the PRESENT -representatives are prolonging their sessions to needlessly increase their per diem. The salary permitted to be drawn, exclusive of mileage, according to law, is $500 foreach Supervisor, and it will be observed that the limit has not been reached during the past four years. W.

Abstract of Receipts and Expenditures from Juy 1, 1880, to July 1, 1887. To correct an erroneous opinion which seems to prevail in the minds of some of taxpayers, that the present Board of Supervisors are extravagant inthe disbursement of the funds of the county over which they have control, there has,.at their request, been prepared from the books and reports of the Auditor and Treasurer the following abstracts, covering a period of seven yearsjefrum July 1st, 1880 to July lst, 1887. ° The summaiies are grouped in fiscal years, that is, July let to July Ist for convenience to correspund with the books and reports. The Special and Hospital funds of 1880 were united with the General fund in 1880 and are in this statement salaries of the county officers were paid from the General fund prior to June 1883, when the Salary fund was established as provided by law, but for convenience and as they are so closely connected by reason of transfers of funds, they are_united in this comparison. The State fund and School fund not being under the control of the Board of Supervisors, no mention will be made of those funds. At the commencement: of the fiscal year 1880-1, viz:-July1st, 1880, the General fund; after allowing the bills which had accrued at that date against it, shows an indebtedness of $4,783.16 Che-General Road fund correspondingly at same date after allowing -$12,285.76 in payment of bills of preceding quarter shows an indebtedness, exclusive of interest, of The condition of the Road district funds at same date was as follows: First Road District indebtedness, $ 854 77 gs 17,109.57 Second ‘“ bs 290 52 Third ‘* se as 1,010 06 Fourth ‘“ ee ee 946 04 Fifth “ AD bs 889 02 Making total indebtedness, July 1, 18380, $25,883 14 This indebtedness continued to increase until 1883, when $50,000 of bonds were issued and at the close of the fiscal year 1882-3 the indebtedness was, bonds $50,000; other claims allowed $1,941.10; it being estimated that this latter amount would be paid from delinquent taxes, The assessment roll for the respective years has been as follows: Fiscal year, eat $9,064,090 881-2 8,607,672 “6 -4gga-8, 7,478,674 1888-4, 7020, . 1888-7, 4,996,549 The amounts of the fast five years being exclusive of the railroad assessments made by the State Board of Equalization and not by the county Assessor.

1886—7 «.. 16,430.97 * Had the Board of Supervisors desired to transfer enough surplus to the Bond fund the entire indebtedness— could have been paid and left a small surplus as shown above, but the Board deemed it better to carry forward the surplus and try to reduce the rate of taxation. To recapitulate—The disbursements for all general and criminal business, county hospital, officers salaries, roads and-bridges is summed up by years as — . follows: 1880-1. . 1881-2 1882-3.. . 1883-4 .. 1884-5... 1885-6 .. 1886-7. . It will also be“seen that while the county indebtedness at the commencement of the fiscal year 1880—1 was $25,893.14 which was increased, even while the assessment roll -was large, to nearly. $52,000. in July 1883, xetein the four years last past, enough revenue has been provided to entirely cancel the indebtedness notwithistahaing the assessment roll has been rapidly decreasing during that time. The taxpayers can judge from the foregoing whether the finances of the county have been economically managed. The amount of money received by the Supervisors for salaries and mileage for the respective calendar years commencing January 1st, 1876, is as follows: : sesso es» $108,696 80 ¥r. lst Dis, 2d Dis. 8d Dis. 4th Dis. 5th Dis 1876 $322 96 $242 90 $826 60 $362 80 $364 60 1877 844 80> 2y2 50 86926940 362 30 435 60 1878 25400 287 28040 22005 842 60 1879 $20 00 © 382 858 40 348 40.20 1880 583 25 555 50 456 0@ 518 80. 6y2 00 1881 434.50 624 80 48000 531 50 654 85 1882 6¥1 50 644 20. 633 00 662 20 734 20 1883 413-00 438 20 44100 452 20 629 00 1884 47200 45440 45760 48240 619 20 1885 35200 85709 386660 3861 00 866 00 1886 416 00 43100 418 00 436 60 435 60 In addition to the above received by each member during the several years, each member has received -$300 per annum as Road Commissioner. From the above, the taxpayers Gan judge whether the PRESENT -representatives are prolonging their sessions to needlessly increase their per diem. The salary permitted to be drawn, exclusive of mileage, according to law, is $500 foreach Supervisor, and it will be observed that the limit has not been reached during the past four years. W.
