on. Uio tiiianoes of ClitJieroo is a tribute to tbo oftteials of the Corporatiou, .since it is a record of work economicaUy done in trying eLreiinislanees. Tbe .stafe- meut shows the Rorough ticcounts are ill il. very lieaLtliy condition, and Uiougii money i.s being saved, whicli will ulti­ mately luive to be .spent, there is no disputing the fact Unit I'cal economics are being dTcct.ed, in the face of extra­ ordinary expenditure in tile sluipe of allowances to soldiers. Hut sati.sfactory tus are tlie results foj' tbe jicriod under review, one can eoiitideutly predict a still belter state of a.lfair.s in the not very far distant future as niiuiicipali- tie.s go—the yetir I'J31.
