the year of $12,228.82. The net Yellowstone, there are no sidewalks during this period. The total cost
earnings of the plant prior to the
33 1-3 per cent reduction was made
was $14,612.03. It might be Inter
oetlng to know that the kilowatt out
put at the plant for the year until
April 1, 1916, wan 528.900 kilowatts,
lor the year ending April 1, 1915,
was 473,060 kilowatta. making an
iarrease of 55,849 kilowatts. At the
present time them are 639 consum
ers, an Increase of 75 over the year
ending April 1. 1915. This depart
ment for the pt year has been han
dled In a very satisfactory manner,
and I feel there is undoubtedly a
gTer.t deal of credit due to the super
intendent for the handling of the
lectric light department.
The report of the water depart
ment for the year ending March 15
1916, will show the gross receipts of
$8,594.73, which expended $7,369.72
with $1,092.72 construction. The
aomber of gallons of water pumped
for the year ending March 1, 1915,
was 79,410.850; for the year ending
April 1. 1916, there were 81.131.250
rations of water ptimped. showing an
increase of 1.720.400 gallons over
the year 1915. The report of this
department would Bhow that there Is
only a net earning of $132.39. This
Is due to the fact that there is no
record kept of the amount of water
ylven to park, city hall, sewer and
utreet sprinkling Were theBe differ
ent Items handled and properly

In regard to the general health
oudltlon of the city of Alliance: The
records will show that for the past
year there were ten cases of contagi
ous diseases reported to the Health
Board. .This Is exceptionally good
record considering the number of
cases of contagious diseases that
have been reported in the state of
Nebraska for the past year. The
records will show that this depart
ment, as handled by the city physi
cian, has been handled in a very sat
isfactory manner, and that he has the
confidence and the support of all of
the physicians in the city.
The question of the proper dispos
al of the garbage Is receiving con
siderable attention at this time. The
condition of our dumping grounds,
also the location, Is proving very un
satisfactory from a sanitary stand
point, and that the only proper and
successful way of handling or dispos
ing of' garbage is by the use of an in
cinerator plar.t. These plants are In
operation all over the United States.
I certainly hope that the council will
give this matter serious considera
tion and I feel that the time is rapid
ly approaching when the city of Al
liance will be compelled to dispose of
the garbage In a more satisfactory
method. An Incinerator plant would
coHt In the neighborhood of from $8,
000 to $10,000. A plant of this kind
would take care of all the rubbish
tin cans, manure and dead animals.
The report of the police depart
merit Bhows that the cost of main
tainlng the department for the year
ending April 1. 1916. was $2,716.19
The cost of boarding prisoners for
the same period was $559.50. It
might be interesting to know that
from the first of November. 1915. to
March 31, 1916. the city allowed 469
men to lseep In the city hall and
ljght plant. The men were homeless
and by allowing this, we found places
for these unfortunates to sleep. Dur
ing the past year there were 325 ar
rests made, total number of fines and
costs colected amounted to 1 $ 1 .27 3.
95.
Some time ago the city saw fit to
take over the cemetery and I find up
on examination of the records that
there is due from the sale of lots
prior to the time the city took hold
of this proposition, the sum of $874
We are making an effort to collect
The report of the park board
shows there was expended during the
year $1,134.08. I believe that the
park will need some outside assist
ance this year, other than the mill
levy In order that the park may be
placed In a condition so that it can
be enjoyed by our people.
I find, upon Investigation, that the
total amount of disbursements of the
City Library from April 1, 1915, to
April 1, 1916, Is $1,255.23. The li
brary building Is in need of certain
repairs, such as walls painted, wood
work varnished, and the basement is
unfinished, which Is badly needed.
At the time that the city assumed the
liability of this library, and In jus
tice to the trustees and the entire
city. I feel this council should see
their way clear to financially assist
in making these needed repairs.
