THE COLLECTOR'S OFFICE.
Mr. John W. Richards, Collector
of Taxes, has mndo a most capable
officer and it is largely duo to his
good work that the city's finances
are in such a satisfactory condition.
There is a considerable amount due
the city in delinquent taxes for the
years 1908 and 1909. The books for
these years should be called in and
a full settlement made. Likewise
the books for 1910 and 1911 which
have been more closely collected.
These. books and the delinquent list
of 1912 should be placed in the same
hands and a sale of property adver
tised before April 1, 1913, when the
five-year limit will bar further
efforts to collect the 1903 taxes.
This is very important,
THE DUST PROBLEM.
During the year $1,895 81 was ex
pended for oil on the streets and
$1 179 10 was patyl by a portion of
the oiUaens, some rcfaaing to pay
and other faiNna- to do so alter Wav
ing the all spread in front of thbr
property. The Cawieil undertook
to oil the buenaaas section but
met with reaiatanaal on the part of
soma of'the nsercnaaVts and Anally
compromised by Bpffakling, some of
the streets with water, at an ex
pense dating tho amson of abotu
$800. This expenditure of $1500
for the two mothods waa a very ex
pensive luxury for the city, which
left the advocates of both method
dissatisfied. This year I recommend
that the streets be sweet and. not
Bpr foiled or oiled at paMe 'expense,
