There was considerable extra expense incurred in providing the assessor's and collector's Offices last year which will not be necessary this year. Expense account It cost the county $),-727.70 $),-727.70 to provide the assessor and collector with the abstract maps required by law and to make them ready for the assessment and colleatioii of ls'.J2. They probably can be brought up to .'an. 1, 1893, at an expense of $1300, thus making a saving of $5,527.70 in this matter. An appropriation of $1500 was Bade to the Irrigation congress and is in the nature of an extraordinary expense. I estimate there will bo a decrease of 400 in the expense for office furniture. So that, the expense account will probably show a decrease de-crease of $7.,r)0t. The appropriations to the court house and laud account Will depend upon the progress of the city and county building. If the county proceeds with the proposed additions to the Infirmary, there will be an increased expense here. It is now impossible to estimate how much uf the county's revenno will be absorbed by sales to the probate judge account delinquent delin-quent taxes, but the increase amounting to (7B97.91, in 1 891, was so great that probably prob-ably the amount in 18112 will exceed that of 1891. Prison account This, like the pauper aecount, ae-count, can not be estimated, but probably will increase with the population. Belief account does not vary much from year to year. Compensation Account There was an increase in-crease uf 9,S9G.5H in 1891 in tliis account. if this amount 4751 was made necessary by the law of 1890 providing for taking the census cen-sus and collecting statistics. It cost that amount to de this work. There was an increase in-crease of $500 in the salary of the assessor attd Of $375 in that of the collector. There was an increase of salary lo the sheriff of $370.30, ami the Increase will amount to $1200 during 1W2. The salary of the fish and game commissioner was increased $50. The appropriation to the surveyor for 1891 shows an increase of $1123.70 over 1890. The. salary of the other officers has re-mained re-mained the same. The pay of officers not salaried varies with the number of days service rendered. Therefore, unless tho legislature repeals or modifies the. law requiring re-quiring statistics to be collected and the census to be taken, no great change will be looked for in this account. Then if the work on roads necessitate no outlay greater than that of 1891, there will be a decrease about as follows: BoadS S 852.85 Scwcr 8,832.88 Jail 1112.80 Expense 7,500,00 Total l7.5'W.Oo! Thus the court may expect about 117,000 from these sources, as compared with 1891, to be applied to the extraordinary expense which will arise through building. Respectfully, (J. V.. ALLEN, Clerk.

An analysis of the appropriations will show where the court may expect a decrease or increase during 1892. There were appropriations in 189 to road account to the amount of $4023.23, which were to meet hills Incurred in 18-.it), There are now piiicl or on tile in this office claims for work done in 1891 amounting to $4070.38. This would leave a balance in faveV of appropriations ap-propriations to this account in 1892 of (853 85 If no more work is done on road-than road-than has been done during the year Just ' c losed, The appropriations for Inquests will not vary greatly. There will he no appropriation to sewer account, as (feet work finished, thus effect, ing 11 saving of $8332.81). The chief expend: in the jail account was rendered necessary by connecting Hie same 1 with tin main sewer. If there arc only the I Usual expenses for repairs, the appropriation j to this account ought not to exceed $300, a decrease of 1913,80. ( In the pnuper and insane ai count tiie ,-x pense cannot be estimated, as the cost of relieving re-lieving the needy depends upon so many contingencies which cannot be foreseen. But eerttimly no great increase need l. up prehended If times remain fairly good. Criminal expense cannot increase much under the present law. though the appropriation for stationery, books and supplies for offices must gr'ov with the population and consequent Increase uf business. I do not apprehend that there |
