MAYOR ROBINSON'S ADDRESS.
To the Honorable City Council:
The unbroken custom of forty years is my apology for this
address.
It affords opportunity to express my gratitude for the high
honor given me, and my profound sense of responsibility in
assuming the onerous duties of this important office.
I have been repeatedU favored with public position, but
have held no place of which I could be prouder than that of
chief executive ot Concord, — my native city, the home of
my parents and my children, the beautiful capital of the
Granite State.
It is with much gratification that I find myself surrounded
in this organization with so able an association of my fellow-
citizens. It is not flattery when I say that your combined
ability, comprehensive experience, and ripened judgment are
the greatest assurance that the mayor could have in the out-
set of his administration. Coming from the different walks
of life, and representing, as you do, different localities and
varying interests, you comprise a diversity of strength, and
together constitute an almost insurmountable barrier to error.
We have amongst us those who were also members of the
last city government, and their guidance and advice will be
invaluable. m
* *
Our administration may not be so brilliant in achievement,
but it can be diligent, sensible, and upright. No huge pile
of masonry, at public cost, may insure our names to posterity,
no pretentious statuary in bronze or stone may mark the little
hour of our official service, no imposing dedications emblazon
our fame, but we shall have won a grander success, a higher
4 CITY OF CONCORD.
encomium, if we administer municipal affairs quietly and in
the most efficient and economical way consistent with the
preservation of the city and the welfare of its people.
Parsimony is not always economy. If, however, upon a
reasonable assessment of valuation, in conjunction with a sal-
utary reduction of the city's indebtedness, we could succeed
in cutting down the present high tax rate, — that would he the
positive evidence, the practical proof, that the taxpayer has
been actually benefited. Keeping in mind always the fact
that the efficiency of the necessary municipal machinery must
not be impaired at any point, there could be no opportunity
better than the present for real retrenchment. It ma}- be the
popular thing for mayors to recommend, as a matter of mere
administrative policy, but in our case the fact is that it is fast
becoming an absolute necessity of municipal prosperity.
Suffering, as we are, in common with other communities,
from the wave of general business depression, and with a city
debt upon us that has rounded rapidly into a million, the
problem that confronts us is indeed a serious one, especially
for the larger taxpayers; and an earnest beginning should
immediately be made in thrifty management of our city arlairs.
I do not advocate the policy of niggardly salaries, or inad-
equate wages, nor do I believe in paying more than the same
character of work would command in private business, but
we are just now confronted with an unfortunate condition ot
things which, requires, temporarily :it least, that all public
expenditures be brought to the lowest point that will insure
proper protection against fire, and the maintenance of good
highways, and such other facilities as are essential to our best
well-being and uniform progress. We must scrupulously
discriminate between wants and needs. The city's sound
financial basis has been the rock of its stability and success.
Almost every department of our local government is asking
for appropriations exceeding those heretofore granted, and,
while these petitions are not to be peremptorily refused, they
certainly, under the circumstances call for the most cautious
scrutiny and consideration. The people are willing to be
MAVOi; ROBINSON S ADDRESS. .)
assessed for public expenditures, but whether it be tax upon
real estate or a mere poll-tax, the taxpayer wishes to feel
assured that the assessment is judicious and seasonable, and
that an equivalent is being rendered for the money paid, and
that it is being prudently, consistently, and wisely expended.
I wish that not only the several committees that will be
appointed from your body, tor convenience in the conduct of
public business, hut that even- one of you would feel, individ-
ually, the burden of responsibility that must rest upon us all.
*
* *
The reports of the several heads of departments are in
press, and will soon be in your hands for your edification and
instruction. To anticipate them might be presumptuous; to
criticise them would certainly be premature. I would urge
that you give to them in every detail the closest examination,
comparing them, item by item, with similar reports of former
years, to the end that we may enter upon our duties with all
the information available as to the different subjects upon
which we may act.
The ordinances of the city have been revised for conve-
nience, and these also will be in your hands to guide and
instruct you. They contain eliminations, changes, and addi-
tions, including slight increases in some salaries, and should
be carefully read and thoroughly understood by every member
of the council, in order to facilitate to the best advantage our
formal proceedings. %
* *
While we should have a conservative administration as to
expenditures, we must strive to have an energetic and pro-
gressive one in other respects. The people expect much,
and have a right to expect much, of us. Concord is not vet
a back number. The proverbial grass is not to grow in our
streets. We must be ready to do our part on public occasions,
and encourage such visitations to our city as are to its advan-
tage, and carry forward, as far as within our mission lies, any
worthy enterprise that our people may believe to be for their
legitimate enjoyment and best material interests. Our term
(i i I I V OF i ONCi u;i>.
of office falls at a time when advancing civilization will admit
of no old-fogyism. The watchword of the hour is progress,
and this city must take no backward step. If it is to be kept
in the fore-front of the van of progressive municipalities, it
must have in its city council, as well as in command of its
various departments, men of energy, of willingness, and
adaptability, of courage, qualification, integrity, and convic-
tion.— thoroughly awake to modern methods and appliances,
and all that pertains to the substantial progress of the very
intelligent community which has preferred them.
* *
We come upon the stage at a time when the great problem
of correct municipal government is receiving conspicuous
attention. A third of the population of the country reside
in the cities, and the four largest municipalities contain nearly
one tenth of the population of the United States. In 1790,
only one thirtieth of the population lived in cities of S,ooo
inhabitants and over, and this increased till, in 1880. when
z 2^ per cent., or nearly one fourth, resided in cities. From
1790 to 18S0, the total population increased twelve fold,
the urban population eighty-six fold. From 1S30 to 1880.
the wdiole population increased a little less than four fold, the
urban population thirteen fold. From 1S70 to 18S0, the
whole population increased 30 per cent., the urban population
40 per cent. During the half-century next preceding 1SS0,
citv population increased more than four times as rapidly as
that of the village and country. In 1800, there were only
six cities in the United States which had a population of 8,000
or more. In 1SS0, there were 2S6, and in 1890, 437. It
has been estimated from reports and semi-official data that the
increase of rural population from 1SS0 to 1 S90 was only
S per cent., while that of the urban population was more than
57 Per cent * * *
This remarkably rapid increase of population in the great
nerve centres of civilization has brought us face to face sud-
denly with the momentous problem of civic management,
which has only recently become a burning subject in popular
MAYOR ROBINSON S A.DDRESS. i
consideration. It is a vital national question. Upon the
conduct of the affairs of our cities must depend very largely
the government of the whole country. While they are the
storage batteries of science, literature, and art, they are also
the storm centres of dangerous elements.
During the recent political campaign thousands of men. in
different states, associated themselves together in good govern-
ment leagues and clubs. Main of these were partisan organ-
izations which will now become disbanded, perhaps to recon-
vene when political exigence suggests ; and the loud agitators
who led in the spasmodic movement, whether for personal
popularity or party control, will remain quiescent for a time,
or devote themselves to other fields of labor; but good civic
government will prevail. The agitation that has been brought
about, the changes that have been accomplished, the lessons
that have been taught, the reforms that have been wrought,
the interest that has been incited, have had a marked effect
for good, and hereafter, in every city of the Union, the man-
agement of its municipal affairs will be watched with a keen-
ness of interest never before so universally felt.
The reformation in the larger cities should be to our bene-
fit. We should learn wherever there is anything to be taught,
and adopt any improvements that might be to our advantage
and within the purview of a reasonable economy.
*
* *
The problem of municipal government is perhaps second
in importance only to the labor question, a correct settlement
of which I believe to be vital both to the peace of society and
the prosperity of business. You will pardon me for remind-
ing you that whatever of majority or plurality you and I may
have received at the recent election, was due largely to the
votes of the wage-earners of this city, and it is not only their
right and our duty, but imperative, that we keep steadily in
mind the truth that the credit for whatever of success this city
has attained, rests very largely upon the broad shoulders of
the workingmen. They have been its mainstay and depend-
ence in the past, and to them we must look more especially
for the development of its industrial enterprises, its granite
O I Hi OF CONCORD.
quarries, and other resources, in the future. Our administra-
tion would gain in dignity and power by being kept close in
touch with those valiant souls who have been kindly styled,
"the plain people." The deluge of taxation, wherever it
may seem to rest, will sooner or later trickle down onto their
backs, and be paid in the sweat of their brows.
*
* *
I hope that the mechanics and the laboring classes generally
will take an interest deeper than they have heretofore, in the
conduct of the city business, and feel that our local govern-
ment is not for any political party exclusively, or for any fac-
tion, or clique, or man, but for every resident of the city,
high and low. We are the agents and servants of the whole
people, — anxious to inspire their confidence, to heed their
advice, to hold their respect, and to win their commendation.
They must remember that the matters with which we shall
have to deal are not of concern to us alone, but pertain alike
to our constituents, whose sympathy and co-operation we
solicit and have the right to expect and rely upon. Somebody
has well said that a municipality, to thrive, needs the vivify-
ing and uplifting force of every citizen. When the attention
of our people is once fully attracted to a question of municipal
concern, and they set to thinking earnestly upon it, they very
soon evolve something desirable, and the difficulty is overcome.
# *
The city contracts should be let to, and all work here done
by, resident workmen, as far as practicable, an equal oppor-
tunity being given all responsible bidders. If the street
department, or other branches of our local government, could
give the deserving unemployed of our own city, work that
would be useful to us, it would be a happy consummation.
There will undoubtedly be manufacturing and other indus-
trial enterprises which we can foster and encourage, not per-
haps with appropriations, but with co-operative sympathy
and that cordial public-spiritedness which is so valuable and
effective when evinced by persons in authority, especially
members of a city sfovernment.
mayob robinson's address. 9
An unvarying courtesy toward one another, and a generous
hospitality toward strangers will be very helpful. Nothing
characterizes a city more favorably than gentlemanly and
obliging conduct in its officers and employes, and I earnestly
invoke the heads of all departments to insist upon decorum
and politeness on the part of every employe of the city.
There is nothing in the past to complain of in this respect,
but I should be pleased to have our administration conspic-
uous for its courteousness and our evident desire to accommo-
date the public, and serve the people promptly and faithfully
in every position of trust and confidence.
*
* *
It will be mv duty, from time to time, to give the council
information relative to the state of the city, and I shall rec-
ommend to their consideration such measures as I may deem
expedient, and as occasion may seem to require.
Calling upon the heads of the several departments, I have
found them cheerful and obliging, willing to furnish any data
within their power, and seemingly anxious to co-operate with
us for the public advantage.
Mayor Cogswell has been exceedingly courteous. The
relations between us are very amicable, and I hope to be able
to retire from this office in the popular favor in which he is
held, as an upright, cultured gentleman, a loyal citizen, and
a painstaking and industrious officer.
*
* *
I do not assume now to understand the city's affairs in
detail, but my first great duty and chief study will be to
acquaint myself thoroughly with them.
I am informed that, of the very large expenses incurred by
our city precinct for the rebuilding of the state house, all of
the debt has been liquidated, with the exception of a balance
of $17,000.
Of the general city debt, there are bonds outstanding, issued
for various purposes, and which mature in 1S95, $3,000; and
bonds issued for building the police station, $17,000 ; for wid-
ening Pleasant street, $13,800; for memorial arch, $20,000;
Ill CITY OF I ONCORD.
for lower bridge, $20,000; for public land adjacent to state
library building, $25,000. These mature at different times.
The building of the Loudon bridge, or what is general!}
known as the Free bridge, was provided tor by issuing notes
of the eitv amounting to $17,850, of which $9,600 matured
in 1894, and have been paid; $8,250 will mature during the
present vear.
The building of the Horse llill bridge was provided for by
the issuing of notes amounting to $10,000, which will
mature in 1896.
There are outstanding water-works bonds amounting to
$675,000 and a temporary loan of $15,000.
The income derived from the water-woiks is more than
sufficient to meet the current expenses of the sen ice and to
pay the interest on the total debt, in main cities the water-
works are owned and controlled by private corporations,
while we own our entire system, subject to the bonds out-
standing. It is estimated by individuals that our water-
works coidd be sold at a sum that would exceed the entire
indebtedness of the city, but this is an unsafe premise, and
certainly not one upon which to predicate extravagance.
The water rates are none too low, and the probability of
further expenditures in the water-works is too imminent tor a
speculative valuation.
The outstanding bonds which have been issued on account
of sewers by the city precinct amount to $41,000.
Of the $116,000 of bonds issued in 1SS9 for the purpose of
building the High and Kimball school-houses, there remain
unpaid $106,000.
Of the bonds issued on account of building the school-
house at Penacook, $2,500 remain unpaid.
The bonds which were issued on account of sewers in
Penacook will mature on different dates between 1S9S— 1900,
and amount to $24,000. Provision is made to meet these
bonds as they mature by a sinking fund which now amounts,
with interest, to $3,289.60.
mayok robinson's address. II
There is also a bonded indebtedness for constructing sewers
at West Concord, which amounts to $17,000, with similar
provisions for a sinking fund as in the case of the Penacook
sewer bonds.
I do not propose to annoy you at present with any tables
of statistics, but for the year last past the total receipts,
including the balance on hand January 1, 1894 (not includ-
ing the water-works), amount to $422,518.17- This includes
bonds, notes, and cash on hand. Of this amount has been
expended for various purposes $404,033.78, leaving a balance
in the hands of the treasurer of $18,484.39.
From these figures it may be learned that the entire bonded
indebtedness of the city, including the water-works, precinct,
and school district bonds, amounts to $986,300.
The last issue of bonds has been sold at the rate of three
and one half per cent, per annum, which shows the credit ol
our city to be unimpaired, for there are only few places in
Xew England that have been enabled to place their bonds at
so low a rate of interest.
It would, perhaps, be interesting in this connection to
mention the fact that ten years ago there were only sixteen
trust funds, while the city treasurer's report for 1S94 shows
that the number has now reached eighty-two, which indicates
that our citizens appreciate the opportunity afforded by the
city for the perpetual care of funds intrusted to it. Many of
these are mortuary funds for the purpose of keeping cemetery
lots in good condition, and such precautions on the part of
testators should be encouraged.
While our valuation increased only $867,744 from 1SS3 to
1893 (S per cent.), and our ratable polls gained in number
onlv 564 (14.75 per cent.), the amount of tax jumped from
$169,498.95 to $204,585.27 (20.7 per cent.), and the total
expenditures advanced almost uniformly, step by step, year by

in 1884 to $404,033.78 in 1S94, an increase of $203,31 7.98
(1 01 per cent.).
The city pauper account was changed, and the interest
on the state house loan lessened by payment or other
arrangement, but otherwise the current expenses have grown
startlingly, the cost per capita for local government in
Concord being now $12.03 Per year; and if an average were
made of the precinct alone, it would be still greater.

mayok robinson's address. L3
Since the recent election the retiring city council has passed
a very important and comprehensive fire ordinance, which
reorganizes the fire department throughout, and puts its
membership and management under the control of a per-
manent chief, who is under obligation to devote himself
exclusively to the duties of his office, receiving a salary
therefor of $1,200.
Although this ordinance is probably modeled after similar
enactments in other cities, vet its practical adaptation here,
under the circumstances, is, of course, problematic.
This ordinance has been supplemented by an ordinance
creating an electrical department, with an expert at a salary
of $1,000. The high character of the gentlemen who have
introduced these measures entitle them to impartial consid-
eration, but the maintenance of the fire department, under
their provisions, will increase the running expenses very
largely, — to such an extent that the taxpayers have begun
to regard them with evident distrust, and we are beset with
the expression of a general dissatisfaction that cannot properly
be ignored.
*
* *
The matter of the appointment of a permanent chief has
long been in contemplation, and has met with general approval,
and the pay of the firemen was considered inadequate, but
whether there was a sufficient demand for the additional leg-
islation, and for the summary reduction and reorganization of
the whole fire department, eliminating without the formality
of discharge, some of its best and most experienced members,
is a matter upon which I do not feel called upon, at the very
outset of my administration, to express an inconsiderate
opinion. Many thought that it was not too large in member-
ship, being a call department in a city of very wide territory.
I do not learn that the insurance companies demanded so
sweeping and radical a change just at this time ; and it is a
well recognized fact in every community, that there is no
point of touch in municipal affairs more delicate and danger-
ous than an unwarranted interference with the fire depart-
14 cm OF I ONCORD.
ment. To have anything of inharmony amongst its members,
or a spirit of discontent toward it on the part of the public,
might result disastrously to the material interests of the city.
The permanent chief is to superintend the department, and
is expected to make a business of familiarizing himself with
the construction of our public buildings, workshops, and
business blocks, fixing in his mind the location of boiler
rooms, gas cocks, electric light switches, combustibles, etc.,
visiting frequently the houses of the department in the differ-
ent sections of the city, and acquainting himself fully with the
qualifications of the firemen, and with the condition of all their
equipments; thus becoming inestimabl) useful to the depart-
ment and to the public. A gentleman fully qualified in experi-
ence, and otherwise, has been appointed to this responsible posi-
tion, and it is to he regretted that the harmony of the department
should havebeen ruffled, or the public mind disturbed, by appur-
tenant legislation, the responsibility of providing for the heavy
expense of which rests unfortunately upon the present city
administration.
I believe most emphatically in an efficient and well paid
department, and I hope it will be found that the large unex-
pected expenditures for which we must provide are not with-
out an adequate corresponding benefit. Having satisfied the
people, as we may be able to do, that such is the fact, all
complaint will be allayed.

and unsatisfactory in some respect.-, without the purchase,
for the purposes of the stable, of the lot in the rear of the
station, the original price of which, at the time the building
was erected, was $7,000. Excluding this from the estimate,
if the present city government carry out what seems to have
been the elaborate intentions of their predecessors, in the
matter of the fire department, you will be obliged to provide
a total appropriation for the lire department of possibly
$30,000 or $40,000 during the year.
*
* *
It has been anticipated that, as the city grows, the depart-
ment would not be so closely concentrated in the location of
its apparatus, and the fire committee should look into the
needs of the city at the north end, south end, west end, and
in all populous localities, including East Concord, West Con-
cord, and Penacook, so that there may be no appearance of
favoritism in this matter.
The fire department of this citv has always been very effect-
ive and well organized. 1 admire it and commend it. As
private citizen or public officer, I am its friend and champion.
As boy and man I have watched its operations on many occa-
sions for the last thirty years, and I can testify to the coui'age
and self-sacrifice of its members, and have been an eye-witness
to its skillful conquests; and I bespeak for it in the future,
and certainly throughout our administration, a success as
creditable as that which has characterized it during these
many years.
*
* *
It has been anticipated that an electrical department, with
an acknowledged adept at its head, would become a necessity
in this city, but it was not expected that the expense of main-
taining it would be so considerable at the outset. Electrical
development has been so rapid and comprehensive that it cer-
tainly should be authoritatively regulated and controlled in a
progressive city like ours, where a little forest of electrical
mayok robinson's addkess. 17
poles is being reared, through our business centres, blanketed
with a rapidly thickc ing net-work of conflicting wires.
With a growing electrical light plant in operation, a telephone
system increasing in usefulness, an extending street railway,
with the lines of the telegraph companies, and the various
other wires, alive and dead, with which our streets and build-
ings are bestrung, we certainly require the superintendence of
a skilled practical electrical expert, who can give to the sub-
ject such attention as the safety of our people, and the preser-
vation of our property, demand. Whether the ordinance
that has so recently been passed meets the requirements of the
case, is a matter that should have your early consideration.
There will, of course, as our city grows, come a time
when a uniform system of underground conduits for wires
must be adopted, but happily this is a problem that will not
probably embarrass the city for some years, and cannot be
expected to arise during our administration.
*
* *
There is another perplexing question that may come to our
attention. It is the perpetual problem of the liquor laws.
The legislature now in session has pending before it so many
plans for the repeal, revision, and amendment of the prohibitory
statutes of the .State, and the sentiment of the people in refer-
ence to the best temperance methods is so unsettled, that it is im-
practicable to discuss the subject at this time with any certainty
or satisfaction. It is safe for me to say, however, that in this,
as in all matters where the responsibility rests in any degree
upon you, I shall be pleased, as your chief executive officer,
to follow explicitly your direction. While I am not myself
in favor of the spasmodic and vindictive enforcement of any
particular law or ordinance, I do believe in an honest, reason-
able, and constant enforcement of all laws and ordinances,
and in such a manner as will secure the best possible results.
If the exigencies of a heated political canvass have led
anybody to believe that the advent of this administration is to
mark the unrestricted traffic in spirituous liquor in this
18 CITY OF CONCORD.
goodlv city, to give free vent to vice and crime, the error
should be corrected. On the contrary, extraordinary pre-
cautions will be taken to preserve order, to prevent drunken-
ness, and to uphold righteousness. At no point and in no
particular, as far as I have power and authority, will
municipal discipline be relaxed.
There are numerous other subjects that must have our con-
sideration, but upon which you will not expect me to take
your time now in addressing you at length. No one of them
presents itself to the every-dav attention of our people with
greater force than that of good streets and sidewalks. I am
a firm believer in the "gospel of good roads." Somebody
has said that the enlightenment of a community may be
measured by the excellence of its highways. Thousands and
thousands of dollars have been expended upon our streets,
but somehow or another the real secret of road-making eludes
us. There is a knack or a science in it that we do not grasp.
The appropriations seem to be sufficient, and unquestionably
they are honestly expended, but the mud and the wheel-ruts
seem inevitable. We need a steam road-roller and other such
modern apparatus. The friction of bad highways is a detriment
to trade greater than is generally thought, and certainly it is a
great annoyance to pleasure riders. Now that bicycles and
other such vehicles are coming into general use, it is especially
desirable that our streets be put in the best practical condition.
We have temporized year after year, and it is timethat we began
permanent work in the line of the latest and most improved
paving, such as is comparatively inexpensive and yet durable.
Concord has more extent of highway than almost any other
city of no larger population in the United States; and while
the streets and sidewalks at Penacook should be kept in
proper condition, and the suburban roads must lie repaired
and cared for, it would be poor economy indeed to allow the
business streets and pleasure drives to become depleted.
There has been a strong hope to make Concord an attractive

home for commercial travelers and a large class of other
desirable men who do business elsewhere, but who can never
be drawn here to make their residence until the drives are
put in a condition comporting with the dignity of our stand-
ing otherwise.
*
* #
With the state institutions here and the St. Paul's School,
it should be a matter of personal pride, as well as of official
obligation, to have the large expenditures in the street
department made to the best and most lasting advantage, and
this is the popular desire and demand.
The highway department, as you well know, is under a
commissioner, but over him you are expected to exert a control
and an influence, and it does not relieve one department of
responsibility by merely referring a matter to another.
Whatever may be the theory of our local government in the
division of responsibility, the tact remains that in the public
mind we shall all be held together to a rigid accountabilitv
for the conduct of the several branches of the citv
government.
I wish that some feasible plan might be devised wherebv
the people may be better informed, from time to time, what
are the plans of operation in this department, and how the
expenditures are divided in paving for work in different
sections of the city.
*
I find the police force apparently in splendid condition.
This is under a competent commission. No department
of the city has made more rapid progress during the few
years last past, and none is deserving of higher praise.
Formerly, for many years, the police force of the city was
small and inadequate, out of all proportion to the interests to
be protected, and without system or method in patrolling the
streets, or discipline at the station, and it is only recently that
it has assumed the standing and the strength that the
advancement of our city in population and wealth warrants.
20 CITY OF CONCORD.
The expenditure for police protection being thus suddenly
increased to a point where the efficiency of the force com-
pares more favorably with that of other cities, lias made the
expense seem large ; and if it is unnecessarily so. it should
be reduced. Everybody believes in maintaining a good fire
department and an efficient police force for guarding the city,
and that it would he a mistaken policy indeed to curtail either
of these branches disproportionately ; hut in all these matters
you will see the necessity of exercising a consistent and rea-
sonable economy. If we can afford it, I hope the force will
be provided with a patrol wagon, which would he very
useful, and meet the respectful recommendation of the city
marshal.
*
* *
The cemeteries will he entitled to the usual attention.
These quiet rival cities of the dead, becoming moie and more
sacred year after year in the commingling of beloved dust, are
assuming the grace and beauty that make them an important
feature in the rounded growth of our interests here.
You may be asked to build a neat chapel of architectural
beauty at Blossom Hill, an appropriation to lav the foun-
dation for which has already been granted. Every now and
then someone whose early home was with us, is brought
hack for burial, and having lost touch with old friends and
acquaintances here, there is no place in which to perform the
funeral rites, except perhaps in the inhospitable atmosphere
of a hired hall or an undertaker's shop; and such a chapel,
on such occasions, would certainly be a very gracious con-
venience. You will please keep the project in mind, but
whether, under the thrifty principle of our administration,
we can assume such an undertaking just now. is a matter for
your determination.
*
* *
The sanitary condition of the city seems to be good.
.Something of alarm was felt at the lowness of the water in
Penacook lake, the source of our supply, hut taking into con-
mayob robinson's address. 21
sideration that all water sources and supplies throughout New
England are unusually low, I do not apprehend an)' trouble.
I am informed that, perhaps fourteen years ago, the water
in Penacook lake was as low, within two feet, as it is now,
and it has been much higher than it was ever known to be
before within the few years last past. Should the supply
there threaten to fail us, we should probably feel obliged to
extend our water-works from the Penacook branch to Long
pond in Webster, a distance stated at ten or twelve miles.
This pond, understood to be thirty feet higher than the
surface of Penacook lake, is a body of water as pure and good
as that with which we have been supplied. The possibility
that the city will be forced to make another large expendi-
ture in the maintenance of the water-works, is another reason
why we should preserve a prudent policy.
Our health department is doing efficient work, and is
invaluable to the community. With increased isolation and
disinfection it will be second to that of no city of the number
of inhabitants that Concord has, and appears to be able to cope
promptly and effectively with any epidemic that might arise.
An important object of your care will be all the conditions
affecting public health. This will call into requisition
common sense and modern science, which latter has made
especial strides during the last decade. The streets have
been kept cleanly, the ashes and garbage have been carefully
disposed of, but I wish that there might be even a more scru-
pulous cleanliness in the case of the one and a more cautious
disposition of the other.

It has been suggested that there should be a special
inspector of buildings and of plumbing, who would overlook
the construction of business blocks and dwelling-houses, and
thus avert the dangers of defective plumbing and drainage.
Defective sewer traps in other cities are said to be the cause
of much sickness, and if these matters here could, without
22 CITY OF CONCORD.
considerable expense, be put under the control of a compe-
tent inspector, who should see to it that all such work is
carried out in detail scientifically and safely, the result might
redound to the benefit of the public health.
*
* *
We shall be asked to enlarge the central sewerage system
during the year, at a large expense. There will undoubtedly
be a demand for the extension of the south end sewer, from
its terminus at the junction of Allison and South streets, into
and through the Bow Brook valley, which is expected to meet
the growing needs of the territory west of Bow brook and
that near the jail and west of Auburn street. There will also
be a request for a sewer in Hall street, another in Hammond
street, and for others in different localities.
The growth of the city, the laying out of new streets, and
the building of new residences make the demand for sewer-
age, for water mains, for highway outlays, larger each year.
*
* *
I should be glad if there were time to speak of our educa-
tional facilities, which are very creditable. Our schools,
however, are dealt with so directly by the people, who elect
the members of the school board, and make appropriations
for school purposes, that our interference is largely nominal,
but it is a subject in which we, in the capacity of li city
fathers," should take the liveliest interest. While the public
schools are managed by a board of education responsible
directly to the people, and by them through a superintendent,
they are institutions from which are to come the men and
women who are to control our city affairs and constitute our
social fabric within the next few years.

Any rounded mention of the city's advancement would be
incomplete without reference to our street railway. The
gentlemen in the management of this enterprising local cor-
poration have even exceeded the popular demand for such a
road, and the facilities which they have afforded our people

are perhaps superior to those of the kind enjoyed by any
other New England city of our size. The stock of the
corporation is owned almost exclusively by the citizens of
Concord, and it is a home project, which has done much to
develop other property, and is very closely identified with
our material interests.
The road is now eleven and a half miles long. Its capital
stock is $100,000, of wdiich one half is preferred; its funded
debt is $100,000. For the year ending June 30 last, it carried
846,676 passengers. The total income was $43,339.40 and
the expenses $32,980.85, giving a net income of $10,358.55.
It paid six per cent, upon the preferred stock, and carried a
balance to surplus. *
* *
If time would admit, I should be pleased to dwell upon the
development of our public parks, the condition of our city
hospital, our benevolent societies, our public library, and
upon various other subjects familiar to you, any one of which
would, of itself, furnish material for an address, and all of
which, collectively and severally as to their needs, I respect-
fully commend to your careful consideration.
The corporation that dispenses an approximation to a half-
million dollars annually, comprising a surprising multiplicity
of detail, should have an auditor, at the expense of a few
hundred dollars, who could be an assistant to the mayor and
invaluable to the committee on accounts and claims and to
every department ; and there are other recommendations of
improvement that I should be pleased to make, if I were sat-
isfied that they would not violate our resolutions of economy.
As we become informed more in detail of the demands that
will be made upon the city treasury, we shall undoubtedly be
better able to discriminate wisely in our preferences.
*
* *
The legal interests of the city have been ably and very
successfully conducted by the solicitor, and we are fortunately
comparatively free from litigation, and in this and in many
other respects the municipal outlook is auspicious.
24 CITY OF CONCORD.
It was the policy of a former administration to strip the
chief executive of all patronage, and I have not attempted to
interfere with the canvass of any of the several aspirants for
election to any of the various city offices to he tilled, the
responsibility of these elections resting wholly with you.
Nor shall I assume to interfere in your capacity as legislators.
Vou will remember that you are legislating not alone for
your respective wards, but for the city as a consistent whole.
I shall deal from the standpoint of a practical man with
such questions as come within my province, comprising the
grievances of the people, the rights of the people, and the
privileges of the people. One great reason why public work
of all kinds has not been conducted on business principles is
because it is done so much for the benefit of the politician, and
it will be my effort to eschew partisanship and treat municipal
government as a business. The city should be regarded
as a business corporation and we as its directors or trustees.
*
* *
We shall expect the criticism of the public, and shall court
the assistance of the newspaper press in our efforts for the
public good.
I am not, and shall not be, a candidate for re-election.
I have no political ambition to foster, no prejudice or pique
to subserve, and no end, aim, or object in this position beyond
doing just what is right and proper. We may make errors,
but thev will not be those of insincerity. There is a right
and wrong touching every public question, and having dis-
cerned that nice dividing line, we must hew to it, wherever
the chips may fly, and whoever may be displeased. We shall
not he expected to instigate any startling changes in a munici-
pal policy that has been the growth of years, the outcome of
many strong intellects, but with the exercise of sturdy com-
mon sense and sterling persistence in the right, we may be
enabled to be worthy guardians of the public interests, and so
considerately, faithfully, and conscientiously do our duty as to
hold a warm and lasting place in the hearts of our fellow-
citizens, and he no innovation in the city's long roll of honor.
mayor robinson's address. 25
I cannot omit the opportunity of referring to that estimable
gentleman who* formerly occupied the place of mayor, Hon.
Stillman Humphrey, who has only within the last few days
joined the silent majority ; and in speaking to you, as I have
to-day, my heart goes back to another man who stood in this
place, whose splendid example I shall try to emulate, one
with whom I had close association during his official term as
mayor, the late Hon. Edgar II. Woodman, a man, as was
said of Ralph Waldo Emerson, of the loftiest ideal, a perfect
model of integrity, whose mind was like a placid lake, and
reflected truths like stars.
Some gratuitous prophet has foretold dreadful things for
various cities, including Concord in his dire and sweeping
prediction, but the inspiration of a Christian people will pre-
vail against such fanatical prating.
Almost a quarter-century ago an accomplished poet, Mrs.
Abba Gould Woolson, sung of our citv :
" Such Concord is! but who may see
A vision of the town to be,
When wealth shall leave its selfish aim
To bless the public whence it came,
And, leaping o'er each social ban,
Her men shall seek the good of man?
Then parks will spread their breadths of green
To add new beauty to the scene ;
And Art her statued forms shall raise,
Teaching our youth to know and praise
The names that History enshrines
Upon her page in living lines.
Guard well your schools with zealous care,
And share the work entrusted there ;
Nor leave to others' words to preach
What your example best can teach :
Thus may your children learn to prize
A noble life, a temper wise.

FINANCE.
AUDITOR'S REPORT.
To (Ik Financt Committee, Concord City Council:
In accordance with your instructions I have examined the
books and accounts of the city treasurer and the city clerk, and
submit herewith ;i statement of the receipts and disbursements of
the city treasurer for the year ending December 31, L895,
together with a statement of the bonds and notes of the city out-
standing. The cash received by the city treasurer from the
various city, county, and state officials was verified from
receipts in their hands and duplicates on file with the city clerk.
The disbursements made by the city treasurer were found to be
in accord with the orders issued therefor by the mayor and city
clerk. The bills for which these orders were issued were on file
at the city clerk's office, were examined and found to be author-
ized by the several departments of the city government, and
approved by the committee on accounts and claims of the city
council.
I find vouchers for all payments, the payments properly
recorded on the books of the city treasurer and city clerk, the
several items correctly cast, and the cash balance in the hands of
the city treasurer $9,571.81.
I have also verified the trust and sinking funds of the city, and
find them invested and the income thereof for the year 1895
accounted for as is shown by the exhibits.

REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
To the ( 'it ii Council :
The Board of Water Commissioners respectfully submit their
report for the year ending December ."> 1 . L895.
We respectfully refer yon to the report of the superintendent,
which niters into the detail of the work, and is made a part of
this report.
All departments have been kept up t<> the high standard main-
tained in past vears. The earnings have been fully sustained.
The commissioners still believe that meters should come into
general use, and will follow up the plan already begun in placing
them throughout the city as fast as possible. The consumption
of water from the high service system has fallen below last year.
with a consequent reduction in the cost of maintaining the plant.
The pumping engine maintains its high standard of duty, and is
in every way economically and carefully managed.
In the appendix to the report of the superintendent will be
found a schedule giving the mean height of water in Penacook
lake from and including the year L873. It will be seen from
this schedule that the mean height of the water was lower during
the vear 1895 than in any previous year since the construction
of the works. This fact was the cause of much anxiety on the
part of the commissioners, and plainly showed that if the pre-
vailing conditions continued it would be necessary to provide
more water.
In order to protect our supply from the seeming shortage
through the winter months, a proposition was entertained which
had been made several times by the commissioners of the
Boscawen and Penacook water-works, and a special committee
of the hoard was chosen to consider the matter. After careful
investigation by the committee and upon their recommendation,
W \ I ER DEPARTMENT. I 73
u contract for one year was entered into to take water from
Walker pond. The superintendent was instructed to make Lhe
connections, and water was turned on in December and is now
supplying a part of our system.
The late rains, however, have given an increase in our own
supply, so that Penacook lake is at a higher point than at any
time during the same period for the last three years, and with the
prospect that the severe drought is at an end.
We have, as in former years, sought to protect the purity of
our supply by purchasing land around Penacook lake, ami now
own and control a very large proportion of the shores of said
lake.
With the laws passed at the last session of the legislature, the
city lias enlarged powers in the matter of protecting their water
supply.
The note of $15,000 has keen funded into three and a halt'
per cent, bonds, running five year.-.
It is confidently expected that the bonds maturing in 1896 will
be retired when due.
Some discussion has been raised lately in regard to electrolysis
or the action on water and gas pipes from the electric current in
a street railway system. This matter has keen under considera-
tion by both water-works officials ami electricians throughout the
country for some time. As yet we have not discovered any
trouble Iron, thi.- cause on our works, and. with many other
cities much larger than ourselves, prefer to await the investiga-
tions and experiment.- of those municipalities that have suffered
actual damage from action of streel railway currents. Moreover,
in some cities when- corrosion of pipes lias been discovered, the
officials frankly slate that, if the electrolytic action was not now
so actively under discussion, the destruction of the pipe would
have keen easily traced to some other cause. Probably no other
city has suffered more from electrolysis or tried more preventive
measures on the authority of experts than Brooklyn, X. Y.
A- a partial explanation of the stand which we, with other
cities, have taken in regard to the whole matter, we quote the
following from tie- report of the commissioners of electrical
subways of Brooklyn, just issued :
1 7 I < II V <>| CONCORD.
•• The board has sough! in avail itself of the result of experi-
ence with electric car lines in other American cities. Letters
have heeii addressed to the municipal authorities of sixty-six
cities of the United States. Replies were received from forty-
five. Corrosion difficulties have been experienced in only ten.
All attempts to prevent injury to underground pipes arc yet in
the experimental stage. The usual way of ameliorating the
difficulty is by improving the conductivity at the rail joints. It
is easily made good enough temporarily, but after a few months
it deteriorates rapidly. To prevent the water and gas pipes from
becoming conductors of a portion of the trolley current, there is
probably no way except in the use of the double trolley system."
The works have been ably managed by the superintendent and

The lowest point reached was March 1, being 169.05; the
highest was May 1, 173.25; mean height, 171.15, which was
1.66 feet lower than the mean height for the year 1894.
We have been compelled to shut off one service for non-pay-
ment of water rent, during the year; on payment of the fine and
bill, the water has been turned on again.
The principal extensions have been the continuation of the
South street pipe to near Wheeler's cornel-, 1,760 feet of 6-inch
pipe; and the extension of the high service system through
Freight and Depot streets, for fire service at the railroad. The
distribution pipe account appears to be larger than for previous
years according to the pipe laid. But considerable more pipe
was purchased than was used this year, so that we have now on
hand, left from this year's purchase and charged to this account,
619 feet of 4-inch, 1 ,<S74 feet of 6-inch, and 1 1 'J feet of 8-inch pipe.
The general work has been continued as in past years. The
number of new service pipes laid is smaller than since 1886.
Two house-to-house inspections have been made during the year.
We have set 147 meters, placing them on services as directed
by you, making the total number of meters now m use, 271.
You will notice by the engineer's report that the amount of
water consumed on the high service system has decreased very
much during this year; the daily average of gallons pumped was
114,585 less than last year, more than 25 percent., making a
total decrease for the year of 42,823,550 gallons, and a saving
of over 38 tons of coal.
A road has been built around the reservoir, so that the delight-
ful view from the east side can he more easily enjoyed.
Work has been continued at intervals around the shore of Pena-
cook lake, and a fence lias been built at the southerly end of the
lake, between the land purchased of Mr. Crowley and the highway.
According to your instructions a connection was made with the
Penacook and Boscawen water-works; a 10-inch pipe was laid in
Centre street from Merrimack to Hast Canal street, and through
East Canal and Crescent streets to near the Concord Axle Works.
The work was quite expensive on account of the unusual amount
of blasting, crossing the canal, and making the connection.
Respectfully submitted,
V. C. HASTINGS.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
Report of Commissioner of Highways.
To the City < 'ouncil :
Gentlemen, — I herewith submit the annual report of the
Highway Department, showing the work done and money
expended during the year ending December 31, 1895.
In the early spring the general cleaning and repairing of
streets was delayed by the heavy damage caused by the freshet.
The greatest amount of damage was at the south end of the city.
Water street, from the Railroad bridge to the Pembroke bridge,
was washed quite badly, as were Hall and Hammond streets and
the Pembroke road. Altogether t,472 loads of grade were
required to make the roads at the south end passable. At the
north end the damage was less. Bridge and Ferry streets and
the Past Concord road were considerably washed. Here 229
loads of grade were required. The furnace on the city lot
across the river, for burning rubbish collected in the city, was
damaged to such an extent that it had to lie rebuilt. The total
expense of repairing roads washed by the freshet and rebuilding
furnace at the crematory was about $5,180.
But little work has been done on new streets this year.
Peabody, View, and K streets at Wesl Concord were laid out at
an expense of $190.10. Considerable grading and repairing
was done on Second street, amounting to $454.16. Rollins
court has been extended, and Harvard street cut to grade.
$259.97 was expended on Auburn street in cutting and laying
sidewalk. Centre street hill, from High street west, was cut to
grade at an expense of $354.30. High street, from Valley street
to Gilman Taylor's west line, was also cut to grade; expense,
$212.10.
UK ill WAV DEPARTMENT. 199
In my last report I recommended the purchase ofa steam road
roller, which was bought this year. After seeing the working of
different rollers, it was decided that bids be called for, lor a
roller of fifteen tons' weight. Sealed proposals were received
from The Pitts Agricultural Works, Buffalo, N. V.; Harrisburg
Foundry and Machine Works, Harrisburg, Pa.; Aveling &
Porter, Rochester, Eng. ; The O. S. Kelly Co., Springfield,
Ohio; and the last named bidder being the lowest, their hid was
accepted. The roller was received early in June and work com-
menced immediately. State street, from Thompson to Franklin,
was picked up and rolled. 1,064 loads of crushed stone were
used, and when finished made one of the best streets in the city.
It seems to .-how that the roller is capable of doing excellent
work, and now that we have it, work can lie commenced earlier
in the spring and more accomplished.
Main street, from Church to Franklin, was also macadamized,
and from Franklin to Pearl west of the street railway track.
L37 loads of crushed stone were used here.
The last of September, just as we were to commence the work
of macadamizing South Main street from Pleasant to Fayette,
the crusher broke. It was a little over a month before repairs
could be finished, as an entire new frame had to be cast. By
that time the ground was liable to freeze, and work had to be
postponed. The crusher, however, after repairs were completed,
was put to work, and we now have about 500 tons of stone
crushed, ready for work as early in the spring as possible.
The matter of purchasing a portable stone crusher was brought
before your honorable body, but it was put over until later. I
can only recommend the advisability of purchasing one, tor with
our steam roller and a portable crusher considerable work could
be done at a little expense. On many streets and at the
gravel banks there is a sufficient quantity of stone which could
be crushed, and streets well repaired for a small sum. as the
portable crusher would save the cost of carting the stone.
Again would I recommend the appropriation of a certain sum
each year for permanent work, such as paving. .Main street,
from Centre to Pitman, west of the street railway track, is
200 i II 1 < il (i tNCORD.
always muddy. Tlic gutter on the wesl side is considerably
higher than the railway track, and in no better way can it seem
to be remedied than by paving. It could then be swepl and kepi
in a much better condition.
Quite a number of concrete walks have been laid this year,
and there arc still a few to be put in. I hope the matter of lay-
ing a concrete walk from Waverly streel to Blossom Hill
cemeter) can be adjusted and the walk laid next season, as it
was granted five years ago.
The ordinance in regard to removing snow from sidewalks and
dumping ashes in the streets has been enforced this winter. All
requests to remove snow have been complied with thus far, and
T hope that all citizens will consider the matter on the right side
and keep all concrete walks free id' snow. Nothing mars the
looks of our streets more than piles of ashes dumped alongside
of them. Every spring and fall the department cleans the
Streets, and at that time any ashes put in barrels or boxes at the
side id' the street will he removed by the department teams. An
ordinance passed in September, 1895, by the city council
required this to he done. Several days before commencing the
fall cleaning, notice was put in the papers when and at what
place the work would begin. A large amount of garbage was
put out for collection. 1,464 loads were removed, at an expense
of S'.H):;. This was considerably more than the cost of the
spring cleaning, which was $729.25 ; and without doubt the next
general cleaning will be much larger.
Each spring and fall all catch basins in the city are cleaned
out. As the number increases each year, the expense is growing
more every year. When cleaning out catch basins on our main
Streets, all dirty water and mud has to be put in the gutters.
This ,u'ives the street a very dirty appearance. If we had some
kind of a closed dump-cart in which this dirty water and mud
could he removed, it certainly would be a great improvement.
During the summer season the streets are continually being
dug up for sewers, water and gas pipes, and in many cases the
ditches are left in a very had condition, especially where private
sewer connections are made. The city ordinances require the
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT. 201
ditches put back in as good condition as found, but this is seldom
the case ; and it seems that the matter of licensing drain-layers
should lie confined to a few competent and responsible men.
The amount of loose paper thrown around on our main streets
has reached large proportions. Up to the present time one man
has collected it in baskets, but the department has found it neces-
sary to purchase a hand-cart for collecting. Barrels are to be
placed at different places for collection, and we hope to keep the
streets t'\-ve of loose paper.
The appearance of the maple tree borer on many of our shade
trees was brought to my attention during the summer. The mat-
ter of some method of destroying the pest was investigated, but
no satisfactory one found. As a consequence many dead trees
will have to be removed next season.
During the year the Pembroke bridge was replanked by laying
a new course over the old. Federal bridge at East Concord has
had new plank throughout. The iron bridge at Penacook will
have to have an entire new floor in the roadway. The Twin
bridge, at the same place, is in a very had condition and a new
one will be needed before very long. Some repairs were made
on it this year but the structure seems almost beyond repair.
The grading of the approaches at the Horse Hill bridge was
completed this year and railings put up.
The large shed on the city lot on School street has been re-
shingled during the year. At the present time we are so crowded
for storage room that something ought to be done at once. The
new shed might be extended and the old ones taken down, as
they are useless on account of leaking badly.
In my last report 1 recommended the separation of fire and
highway departments. Since April the fire department teams
have been hired and paid the same as others. The separation
has been, as I believe, satisfactory to both departments.
At the close of the last administration an ordinance was passed
putting the matter of fighting brush fires on this department. As
that did not seem to be in our line of business it was transferred
back to the fire department.
Usually, considerable sprinkling is done during October, but
202 < I II OF CONCORD.
owing to the low condition of water in Penacook lake Done was
done this season. This lefl on hand a small amount of the appro-
priation.
New street signs have been put up on all streets in Wesl Con-
cord ami on most Streets in Penacook.
The month of December having been very favorable for this
department, a small sum of money remains unexpended.
In conclusion, I sincerely thank His Honor Mayor Robinson,
members of the city council, and the committee on road- and
bridges, for their support and many courtesies shown the depart-
ment.
Respectfully submitted,
ALFRED CLARK,
Commissioner <</' Highways.

SEWERS AND DRAINS.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SEWERS AND DRAINS.
To the City Council:
The committee on sewers and drains held regular meetings as
usual throughout the year.
Work on the sewerage system of the city has been progressive,
but the amount of money expended in the department during the
last twelve months is much smaller than the average annual
expenditure during the last several years, and yet all necessary
repairs have been promptly made.
It is felt that the system is in first-class condition in all respect-.
The large appropriations of former years were necessary in its
building, including the considerable item of outlets into the river,
but now that the principal streets, and many others, have been
supplied with suitable sewers, the future work may be expected
to be at a less cost. However, demands for sewers are antici-
pated from several localities, and in one or two instances a con-
siderable distance should be covered within the next few years.
The largest item of expense during the year has been the East
Concord system. A sewer has been built there, at an expense of
$2,370.85, the greater part of which is to be met by sinking-fund
bonds issued in payment.
CONTRACTS AWARDED AND WORK DONE.

REPORT OF CITY ENGINEER.
( )ri'i< i. of i in. City Kv uxeer,
Concord, N. II.. December 31, 1895.
'/'<< the ( ' it '/ ( 'ouncil :
In accordance with the ordinance creating this department, I
herewith submit for your consideration its third annual report,
and a statement of the work done under its supervision for the
year ending December 31, 1895.
The cost of all sewers constructed during the pas: season, the
repairs made and cost of the same, the amount expended for
flushing and the amount expended to complete Horse Hill bridge,
will be found upon the following pages.
The flood of April last caused considerable extra work
upon the sewers, more especially upon the North End sewer
where it crosses the line of the Concord & Montreal Railroad; a
statement of the expenses attending these repairs is submitted
herewith.
There has been made by this department such plan,- as were
needed for the work on hand, together with a full set of sewer
plans for the city clerk's office, complete plans of the West Con-
cord sewers, plans of the East Concord sewers, changes and new
sheets in the plans of the sewers in the city precinct, and plans
for the cemetery commissioners.
There has been added to the assets of this department (for
which our thanks are extended to the mayor) a systematic plan
case, as large as could be built in our present quarters, which
enables us to preserve the rapidly accumulating plans, in much
better condition than formerly and also saves much time in find-
ing the plans wanted.
I IIV ENGINEER. 225
The time not necessarily spent upon work of immediate im-
portance has been spent on a general survey of the city. We
hope to complete this winter a plan of that portion of the city
embraced between Bow line on the south, the railroad crossing
near the state prison on the north, the Merrimack river on t lie
east, and a line parallel with Main street, including the property
of Mrs. Mary B. G. Eddy and the Capital City Driving Park on
the west.
The demands upon this office tor information concerning street
lines and grades have steadily increased, and the necessity for
saying that the lines of some streets are indefinite, is at times
somewhat embarrassing.
At the time when many of our streets were laid out the value
of the land taken was very small, and in many cases the land was
given for the street by the owners. To-day the values are dif-
ferent, and each abuttor, probably honestly, claims more land
than the old records indicate. In many cases the old lines are
described as "starting at a pair of liars and ending near an old
apple tree." Both the liars and the apple tree have long since
disappeared, and the " oldest inhabitant " has no knowledge of
them.
In view of these facts I would respectfully recommend that a
little work be done each year in establishing and permanently
marking the lines of some of these streets; this would greatly
assist the heads of all departments in their work upon the
streets.
Considerable time was spent on a survey to Long pond in
Webster, for the water board, and the result of such survey has
been placed in their hands.
A survey of Rollins park was made for the park commission-
ers, showing the present condition and location of the various
walks and drives. The plan has been placed in the hands of a
competent forester, who will prepare a working plan for the con-
templated improvements, so that all work done there may have
the same end in view.
The employes of this department for the past year have
been, — Frank E. Sampson, Frank W. Brown, assistant engi-

work of the past season.

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES.
To the City Council:
The trustees of the Public Library herewith transmit the
reports of the librarian and the treasurer.
The year has been marked by many improvements in
library management, and the beneficial influence of the
institution has sensibly increased. The efforts of the librarian
and her assistants in this direction deserve special mention and
commendation. By reason of the increase of patronage and
the labor of preparing a card catalogue, to which reference
is made in the librarian's report, their work has been very
exacting, but the wants of the public have received most
careful attention.
In former years much inconvenience has been experienced
from lack of funds dining the period from the close of the
financial year to the time of the next appropriation. To
obviate this difficulty in the future unusual economy has been
practiced, in order to make the annual appropriation last
until the next appropriation is available. For this reason,
among others, fewer books have been purchased, and those
have been selected with great discrimination.
We think that an appropriation equal to the one last
granted will be sufficient for the needs of the next year. We
240
• 111 OF CONCORD.
have no doubt that you will continue the same liberal and
enlightened policy in regard to the library that has been
pursued in the pasi .
Very respectfully,

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT.
To the Trustees of the Public Library:
The thirty-ninth annual report, and my first report, is
herewith presented.
The year 1895 early brought a loss to the library, lor in
January occurred the death of Mr. Daniel V. Secomb, for
fourteen years its librarian. Under him the institution grew
from being helpful to a few to being a source of pleasure and
benefit to the entire citv ; and he left an example of faithful-
ness, good sense, and wisdom which it will he well to always
pattern after. The library is intangibly richer for the memory
of this man's devoted service.
It is, too, sensibly richer for a bequest of money, the
largest of the four that have been made in the forty years of
its existence. President Franklin Pierce gave the library
$1,000; Mr. Gardner B. Lyon, a book dealer, $r,ooo; Rev.
Mr. Valpey, of St. Paul's .School, $500; but it was left for
ex-Mayor P. B. Cogswell, an early trustee, to 'make the gen-
erous bequest of $5,000, the income of which is to be
expended in the purchase of books of a biographic, historical.
and scientific nature. The bequest is characteristic. These
are the books Mr. Cogswell best knew and enjoyed ; and as
new scientific works are especially expensive, a fund for their
purchase is of the greatest help. The proof that Mr. Cogs-
well believed in the good a library, the ''people's college."
can do the community, is the most precious part of the
legacy ; and in return the Cogswell collection should be made
to reflect further honor upon his honorable name.
July 1 was begun the first card catalogue of the entire
library : when completed, it shall be fully described and
explained to everyone. Its main object is to group the
1(5
2 12 CI n OF ( OXCORD.
material of the library under subjects for the good of all
wanting information on any topic. It is also the only
catalogue yet approved which can keep an up-to-date record
of books added from day to day. Furthermore, this sorting
of the material in a library is a necessary preliminary to steps
which will be taken as soon as possible, such as the giving
of student's or non-fiction cards, the publishing of lists for
local class work. etc.. etc.
We were most fortunate in securing the services of Mr.
George W. C. Stockwell, of the State Library School at
Albany, to superintend the making of the catalogue, and
his suggestions as to the best library usages in general are
also m< ist valuable.
The alreadv large circulation has been increased by 1.200,
making the number of hooks given out this past year 87,122 ;
of which over 8,000 were sent to the Penacook branch, ami
March again led as the heaviest month. On Saturdays it
avei'ages that every minute of the eleven hours a book is
received, discharged, put away on the shelf, and another
selected and charged. The number of new borrowers who
have applied for cards is large, embracing both the book-
worm, wanting one special book for an hour, ami the child
who comes on his tenth birthday to say, " Please may I take
out lib'ries ? "
The reference room is the only department that has been
completely catalogued, and it is now a little model of what
the whole library will be when rearranged according to the
Dewey classification and Cutter author-numbers. The at-
tendance upon the reference room shows no decrease in its
yearly patronage of over 2,000 inquirers. On leisure davs.
when the space in the stack-rooms is not needed by busy
assistants, permission will gladlv be given to anyone to have
access to any of the book shelves in the library.
The leading room will contain more matter than ever this
coming year, and its popularity, attested by 10,000 yearly
readers, should increase till it allures the Main street loafer
who was heard to say, "Well, 1 imcss I'll kill an hour and
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 243
then go home." This library takes an unusually large
number of periodicals for circulation, remembering what a
fine lecturer himself says, that the place of the old lyceum
has been filled by magazines.
April i the permanent slip system of charging hooks was
adopted and is well liked. It makes a record of the number
of times each book is taken out, and thus speaks more
forcibly than words as to the demand for certain works.
The books bought this last year have necessarily been few
and chiefly fiction. But when, by the new card catalogue's
subject divisions, it is ascertained what departments are
weak, they can be strengthened in due proportion ; for with
the state library to provide legal and congressional documents
and the historical society to furnish antiquarian matter, our
public library seems exceptionally fortunate in having no call
to be anything but a good all-round collection; making, as it
were, a subway of what would spoil its being what a library
has been well called, a li literary common."
But a public library should secure all publications con-
nected with the city in which it is located, and any work by
or about a Concord person will be gratefully received here.
In the account book on the table before you will be found
a memorandum of all the bills approved, paid, and receipted
during 1S95.
I wish to express my indebtedness to the trustees for their
permission to experiment; to the local press for their inser-
tion of lists and notices; and above all to the assistants, who
have all joined heartily and pleasantly in the greatly increased
work of the year.
Respectfully submitted,
GRACE BLANCHARD,
Librarian.

SANITARY DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.
To His Honor the Mayor and the City Council:
The Board of Health herewith transmits the detailed report
of the work of its executive officer, Sanitary Officer Charles
E. Palmer, for the year 1895. In transmitting this report,
the board desires to again take occasion to express its satis-
faction with the faithful, intelligent, and impartial manner in
which Officer Palmer has performed the duties of his position.
— a position, it may be added, which is growing each year
of greater importance to our city and which long since
became an indispensable factor of the municipal organization.
Year bv year our citizens have become better acquainted
with the scope and purpose of the sanitary regulations under
which the executive officer acts, and have more clearly under-
stood the public benefits which his well-directed efforts have
secured, the result being that a more general and hearty co-
operation has been extended, with correspondingly more
satisfactory results. Especially is this true with respect to
the attention given to the regulations governing the care of
cases of contagions diseases, and compliance with the sug-
gestions of the health officer. Included in the great amount
of work which devolved upon the health officer during the
past year were no less than 1,149 visits made to persons ill
with contagious diseases, and yet their mere enumeration tells
but indifferently the importance of this feature of the sanitary
supervision of the city, and of the discomforts attending the
sacrifice of rest and sleep that no attention should be withheld
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 217
which could the better guard the public against the dangers
of contagion or lessen the inconvenience of suffering in an
afflicted household. The total number of houses placarded
during the year has been 236. and the same number (if'
placards has been removed. The health officer has fumi-
gated dining the year 296 rooms and two school-houses,
and has burned 53 pieces of infected bedding. The funerals
of ii persons who died from contagious diseases were
attended.
By act of the last legislature the issuance of burial permits
was made a part of the duties of the hoard of health, the law
being as ioll< >ws :
AN ACT in amendment of chapter 173 of the Public Stat-
utes relating to the registration of Births, Marriages, and
Deaths.
Be it enacted by the Senate a //J House of Representatives
in General Court convened :
Section i. Boards of health in cities shall have charge of
the granting of permits for the burial of the dea.d ; and no
interment, disinterment, or removal from the city, of the dead
body of any human being, nor deposition thereof in any tomb
or vault, shall be made without a permit from said boards or
their duly appointed agent, nor otherwise than in accordance
with said permit. No such permit shall be issued until there
has been delivered to the board a satisfactory written state-
ment containing the facts required by section -1, chapter 173,
of the Public Statutes, together with the certificate of the
attending physician, as required by said chapter 173, or, in
absence thereof, such other evidence as may lie required by
law . Upon the receipt of such statement and certificate, the
board shall forthwith countersign the same and transmit it to
the city clerk for registration.
Approved March 21, 1S95.
Since this law became operative the number issued by the
health officer acting as the agent of the board has been 21S.
The work of sanitary inspection has been carried on during
the year as opportunity offered, although the pressure of
other duties of the office for the past two seasons has pre-
248 cm "i concm >i;i>.
vented so thorough and systematic an inspection from house
to house as the sanitary regulations contemplate and the best
interest- of the public demand. While attention to contagious
diseases is of the greatest consequence, and other branches of
the work must be made secondary, it is the opinion of this
board that such provision should be made, by the employ-
ment of an assistant inspector during certain seasons of the
year, or otherwise as may seem best to your honorable body.
thai every building in the compact portions of the city might
have careful sanitary inspection at least once each year. The
number of complaints attended to and inspections made dur-
ing the past year was 524; number of letters written and
orders given to abate nuisance-. 518; number of sewers
inspected, 104.

of the hoard of health, and a certificate of the hoard of health
is given for their readmission.
If a child having a contagious disease should attend school,
the school-rooms must he disinfected by the board of health
before they are used again.
When a child is sick and suspected of having a contagious

We arc pleased to report the adoption In the board of
education of the foregoing rules and regulations formulated
by a joint committee of their board and the board of health ;
they have been approved by your honorable board and are
now strictly enforced. We feel that much good will result
from these, and that the prevalence of germ-produced diseases'
will he lessened, for the first time in the history of our
existence there has been a systematic and impartial observance
of the vaccination requirement for admission to the public
schools. Careful attention is paid to families and neighbor-
hoods where contagious disease exists in children. The
health officer and superintendent of schools are in touch —
hotii working for the common good. As these diseases are
more readily propagated by school children, it is easy to see
how necessary it is to be watchful of the schools. We are
anxious to do our full duty in the premises.
If a pupil has been exposed to one of these diseases he is
not allowed to go to school until the expiration of the time
during which he might have come down with it. Then, if
well, he may attend school hut only on producing the follow-
ing certificate :

This certifies that
who has been exposed to a contagious disease, may be re-
admitted to school.

have been disinfected under

HOSPITAL FOR CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
For the past few years we have called your attention to the
need in our midst of some institution where diseases of a con-
tagious character could he treated and. in furtherance of that
object, were instrumental in presenting to your honorable
body last January a petition bearing the name of every physi-
cian then in the city. We were told the matter was referred
to the committee on lands and buildings; we do not know of
any action taken on it beyond its reference. Plans of a
building were drawn, estimates of its cost secured, and at a
special meeting of the trustees of the Margaret Pillsbury
General Hospital, a suitable site was generously granted the
city for a nominal sum.
We respectfully ask that a hearing he given us at an early
dav so that parties interested may be heard.
A peculiar phase of the subject may he illustrated by a
case of recent occurrence. A nurse in the discharge of her
duties contracted scarlet fever from the patient, and as she
was refused admission to tier rooms was removed to the pest-
house. Most of our nurses are without homes here, having
come from outside the city and renting rooms ; now if they
are to he told when, in self-sacrificing devotion to their praise-
worthy vocation, they fall (as fall they may at any time) a
victim to the dread contagion, they are to he treated in a build-
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 253
ing unfortunately called pest-house, how far removed is the
dav when they will refuse to attend such cases: Which one
of us will receive the first refusal? .St. Paul's School, with
its 150 employes, the state insane asylum, with its 100
nurses, the state prison, employing some i^ guards and over-
seers, represent an element of our population somewhat
peculiarly situated. Ever open to the danger of contagion
h\ accessions to its ranks from different localities — our own
state, other states, and foreign countries — there is no adequate
provision made tor them or those with whom they come in
contact in case of a contagious disease appearing among
them. These three institutions alone should have their in-
terests in this particular safe guarded without even calling to
mind the large number of railroad employes, children in the
orphan asylums, clerks, domestics, mechanics, and others
who are daily with us, hut. in case of illness, at the mercy of
strangers. Should a fatal epidemic of diphtheria prevail at
our asylum for the insane through want of proper facilities on
our part to handle the hist case, as did happen at the Maine
insane asylum a few years ago. Concord would receive harsh
though deserved criticism at the hands of the people of the
whole state. To offer this or that excuse would be begging
the question. Prevention is better than cure.
DIPHTHERIA.
Realizing the vast importance of an early diagnosis of this
disease, at the very beginning of the year arrangements were
perfected whereby physicians were enabled to have a micro-
scopic examination of suspicious cases made without any
expense to them. Many of the medical men availed them-
selves of this opportunity with great satisfaction to themselves,
patients, and community. We solicit all practicing physicians
in the city to accept this oiler. There is now little justifi-
cation lor allow ing a case of diphtheria to go unrecognized
more than forty-eight hours. The earlier the diagnosis the
better the treatment; true of all remedies, especially of anti-
toxine, and we would suggest the advisability of a more
25 1 cm < >\ < i< >\< :< >i:i>.
thorough use of serum therapy. Results obtained by many
of the besl authorities seem to prove that herein lies our
greatest strength; when painstaking observers of acknowl-
edged ability and truthfulness reduce the mortality rate from 30
and 40 per cent, to 15 per cent., surely there must be something
in it more than coincidence. Dr. Harold C. Ernst, of the
Bacteriological Institute. Harvard .Medical School, now at-
tends to our microscopical work, telegraphing us at once his
findings. The following circular was sent to all of the physi-
cians December 19, 1895, and is self-explanatory:
Dear Doctor :
We have arranged with Dr. H. C. Ernst, of the Bacteri-

TUBERCl LOSIS.
Pulmonary tuberculosis, commonly called consumption, is
a disease about which we are hearing much at the present
daw Perhaps we hear more of it as affecting cattle than
men. but the beast is certainly interior to the human being
and should, not receive the greater share of attention. Al-
though milk and heel" are carriers ol the disease, vet its trans-
mission bv man to man is a far more frequent cause. That
consumption is a preventable disease — or, to put it in another
way, is a disease contracted by means ol a poison introduced

into the system — should be made known to everyone within
our reach. The great danger lies in the sputa: tubercle
bacilli are swarming there and, when dried, are breathed into
the lungs. The remedy is evident: destroy the sputa by fire.
Our health officer has been instructed to give landlords and
tenants all necessan information on this subject, and, when
requested, to fumigate the rooms occupied by consumptives.
PLUMBING.
It is the intention of this board at an early date to submit
for your consideration regulations governing this matter justly
deemed of vital importance and which has not been advanced
with other work. The plan will embrace :
First. Filing plans and specifications at the office of the
board of health on such form as they will provide, which
shall be in accordance with the regulations and be approved
by the board in writing before any person shall proceed to
construct or to alter any portion of our drainage system except
to repair leaks.
Second. Notice to the board when such work is ready for
inspection and which must lie left uncovered and convenient
for examination until inspected and approved.
Third. Inspection. All plumbing work in new buildings
and new work in old buildings must be tested by the board
or their executive officer with the hydraulic or such other test
as they may direct.

As can be seen, a good many inspect
officer have been necessary in order to pr<
bianch of the work. The complaints have been for the most
part well founded, only six having proved to be without any
cause. All complaints are regarded as strictly confidential
by the board. Nearly all the nuisances complained of have-
been abated.
SANITARY INSPECTION.
I consider the sanitary condition of our city ven good,
with the exception of a few localities. House inspection has

been continued during the year, as time would permit, lmt
with increased duties in other important directions I have
been unable to accomplish what ought to be done, and I
would suggest that an assistant be employed for two or three
months during the early spring to make a systematic inspec-
tion of the entire city.
Much improvement has been made in the condition of
premises throughout the city since the adoption of the ordi-
nance by the city council in September, 1S95, prohibiting the
destruction of garbage and other refuse matter by lire, but
providing for the removal of all such matter by the highway
commissioner, which has been faithfully done by that official,
nearly even' family availing themselves of the privilege of
cleaning their yards and having the refuse removed without
personal expense.
The number of inspections made during the year is given
in the list below :
Private dwellings . . . . • . 63 .
Tenements ..... .178
Churches .... 3
Stables 49
Meat markets ....... S
Hotels 2
Factories ....... 4
School-houses . . ■ ■ - ' -
Business blocks ... 1 7
Public buildings ...... 5
A record of each inspection is made, giving the name of
the person owning the premises, street and number, date of
inspection, condition of yards, stables, out-buildings, privy
vaults, cesspools, water supply, plumbing, drainage, water-
closet ventilation, cellars, number of tenements, by whom
occupied, kind of buildings, and other remarks, according to
the condition of the premises.
The value of intelligent, careful inspection of houses can-
not be overestimated in its importance to the health of
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 259
their occupants. The question of plumbing and drainage is
one in which the whole public is concerned, and which
should be decided and carried out by public authority, and
the work held under strict supervision of a competent in-
spector, to protect the public against the use of poor work
and defective material, liable, as it is, to be placed out of
sight or where it might be concealed from the eye of the
inspector.
The doctrine that tilth plays an important part in the cause
of disease lies at the foundation of very much of the sanitary
administration of cities and towns throughout all civilized
countries. The popular impression and undoubtedly the
belief among a very large part of the medical profession as
well as of the officials who have charge of the sanitary
administration is that tilth is, in itself, the active cause of
disease, and that little else is essential to the production of
certain infectious diseases, and I earnestly renew my sug-
gestion of last year, of the enactment of ordinances governing
plumbing and placing the same under the care of an inspector.
SEW E I : IX S PEC T I O X .
In compliance witli the city ordinance I have endeavored
to perform my duty in regard to the enforcement of the rules
and regulations relative to sewers and drains. In all cases,
so far as known. I have personally inspected the connections
made and work completed. A complete record has been
made and tiled of the 104 sewers, giving location of iidet,
size and kind of pipe used, rate of fall per foot, total length
and name of drain-layer doing the work.
It will be seen from the following table that a smaller num-
ber of sewers and water-closets have been put in the present
year, owing to the fact that most of our houses are now sup-
plied with sewers, and water-closets have taken the place of
privy vaults and cesspools that have* been abolished bv order
of the board.

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Happily the city has escaped all forms of epidemic during
the year, the diseases that are more or less contagious having
been broadly scattered and mild in character. Every possible
effort has been made to carry out the quarantine rules and
regulations, and in no instance have I known of the disease
being spread after having been reported and the house pla-
carded and isolation ordered. There have been reported to
this office 258 cases of contagious disease during the year.

>Yeeklv reports of contagions diseases existing in the city
have been prepared and sent to the state board of health, stat-
ing what action was taken by the health officer in each case.
The above table does not include cases of typhoid fever
brought to the city hospital for treatment. Total number of
cases reported from the hospital 24, but two cases proving
fatal.
The number of cases of contagious disease reported to
this office the past year has been somewhat in excess of the
2<')2 CITY OF CONCORD.
number reported in [894. This is clue in part to the increased
faithfulness with which physicians and households have re-
ported such cases. Special effort has been made during the
year to afford a larger amount of protection to the public from
this source of danger.
The rules regarding the method of reporting such cases.
the condition of quarantine, disinfection, school attendance,
and use of the public library, have been extended and in-
creased in efficiency.
The rules pertaining to contagious diseases adopted by
your honorable board and approved by the citv council, May
14, 1S95, were sent to the physicians in general, teachers in
the schools, and left in places where contagious diseases ex-
isted, and proved of much assistance to those in whose hands
they have been placed.

HOSPITAL FOR CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
The lack of proper hospital accommodations for the care
of persons sick with diphtheria or scarlet fever, have been
more forcibly brought to my attention the past year than ever
before. November 17, a nurse while in the discharge of her
duties, contracted scarlet fever, and, having no home in the
city, at her request I moved her to the pest-house, procured a
trained and competent nurse, and provided everything possi-
ble for her comfort. After careful treatment for three weeks
she was pronounced recovered by the attending physician.
This building, which has been kept for a small-pox hospital,
is in no way suitable for cases of diphtheria or scarlet fever.
Its location is objectionable ; it has no water supply ; and its
drainage is of the most primitive kind.
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 263
We need, and need badly, a well-constructed and well-
equipped hospital for contagious diseases. We believe in
public improvements, but do we need more or better devel-
oped parks, or better graded and paved streets more than we
need this hospital where we can properly care for persons
without a home stricken with a contagious disease? I hope
that the city council will take immediate action towards pro-
viding a suitable building for such purposes.
Schedule of property owned by the Citv of Concord in
care of the board of health :
Office furniture and fixtures . . . $40.00
Pest-house and lot . . . . . ^00.00
Pest-house furniture and fixtures . . 2^.00
Total ...... $56^.00
This report will conclude with the monthly mortuary
reports which have been compiled with the greatest possible
care. The record of births by months to some extent is
incomplete, owing to the neglect of some of the attending
physicians to send in their reports. The records of deaths,
since the passage of a general law by the legislature, giving
the board of health the charge of granting burial permits,
which went into effect May 15, 1S9:;, reach this office through
necessitv and are accurate, and will be found to contain much
valuable and reliable information concerning the causes of
death in Concord during the year 1S95.
These statistics have been furnished the daily papers and
sent in exchange to nearly one hundred different cities in the
United States and Canada.
I most respectfully return sincere thanks to his honor the
mayor, and members of the city council, to the board of
health, and all others who have assisted me in any way, for
their uniform courtesy and kindness, therein' answering every
reasonable demand made upon them.
Respectfullv submitted,
CHARLES E. PALMER,
Health Officer.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
I wish to call your attention to buildings in this city that are
unprovided with fire-escapes. I think an ordinance should he
passed compelling owners of buildings more than two stories high
to provide fire-escapes for the same.
I would recommend a police signal line extending from Wesl
street to Penacook, with signal boxes at convenient points. It
would he of great service in case of tire at West Concord and
Penacook.
I woidd also recommend that a stable suitable for one horse,
one. wagon, and the city ambulance he added to the police station.
By authority of the city council a team has been purchased which
has been of great benefit to this department.
i'U RTEOUS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
For the success attained by this department, sincere thanks an
due all the officers for their hearty cooperation. In conclusion
I wish to return my sincere thanks to the board of police com-
missioners, to His Honor Mayor Robinson and the hoard of
aldermen for the courteous treatment this department has received
at their hands. Harry (i. Sargent, city solicitor, has always
advised and assisted us, for which our thanks are due him.

REPORT OF THE CITY SOLICITOR.
To tJu ( '/></ < 'ouncil :
I have the- honor to submil my annual report as solicitor.
The only suits in which the city is now interested as a party
are Kemp v. Concord and Mary J. Gay et al. v. Concord.
The first is a suit to recover damages for an accident caused
by an alleged defective railing and dangerous embankment. The
amount claimed is one thousand dollars (Si, 000).
The second is a petition for an assessment ot damages lor land
taken by the city for a highway. The petitioners were not satis-
lied with the award of damages made by the mayor and aldermen
ami filed this petition to the supreme court.
The ease of Ann Currier /'. the City of Concord, pending at
the date of my last annual report, was decided in favor of the
city. The court held that the notice tiled by the plaintiff was not
sufficient.
The suits of Albin & Martin and the Tahanto Heal Estate
Association, for damages caused by cutting down the grade of a
highway, were settled by my advice and upon terms which I
regarded as reasonable fur both parties, considering the facts.
The suits for abatement of taxes in favor of the First National
Hank, the National State Capital Bank, and the Mechanicks
National Bank of Concord, referred to in my last report, were
decided in favor of the banks, the court holding that the taxes
assessed were invalid.
During the past year I have been called upon to give advice to
the city officers about various matters and have made such com-
plaints and warrants in criminal cases as have been required by
the police department.

PUBLIC PARKS.
SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS.
To the City ( 'ouncil :
Under the revised ordinances of the city the duties of the Park
Commissioners have been enlarged, and now all the parks and
commons of the city are under the control of the Park Com-
missioners.
The appropriations this year have been as follows : White
pari.. $3,000; Rollins park, $1,000; Penacook park. 8100.
The report of the treasurer accompanies this and is made a
part of our report.
The work of the year has extended over the above mentioned
parks, especially at White park and Rollins park.
WHITE PARK.
The work at White park has been largely of a constructive
character, grading and tilling, and for this purpose a large
amount of grade and loam has been purchased and put upon the
grounds. Perhaps more has keen done during the year to really
extend the improvements than in some years past. Much that
has been unsightly has keen obliterated and the whole park has
appeared in a wonderfully satisfactory condition, notwithstanding
the drought in the early summer which was more than made up
by the later rains. It is. in some sense, a laborious work to
reconstruct and reclaim, but in the end it is found to he very
satisfactory ami the results obtained are fully appreciated.
Our city, as compared with other cities, is \r\-y economical
in its expenditures for parks, and perhaps it is wise, although
it often seems like delaying matters to be restricted to a certain
V.i
290 cm OF CONCORD.
amount with which to accomplish a great deal. We take pride
in saying that we feel that the money has been expended to the
best possible advantage.
If it were possible, with the appropriation we now have, to
use some of it for bridges and buildings on the park, the beauty
and utility of the grounds and surroundings would be very largely
enhanced.
The original plan made by Mr. Chaides Elliot, called for a
playground, and it is expected in the near future, that this
necessary adjunct of the park may be completed.
A new swan was purchased to take the place of the one killed
during the previous summer.
A certain amount of lawlessness is still noticed, yet on the
whole there is an improvement, and not until we shall have
fences and denned entrances will this in a great measure be con-
trolled. The fact that an entrance can be made at almost any
point gives an opportunity for travel and dogs, with a consequent
destruction of shrubs and grass, which in the first stages of
growth need much care and attention. No dog should be allowed
in the park without a leash, or without someone who can control
it, for much damage is done each year by them.
ROLLINS PARK.
Early in October, the superintendent, with his force of men,
began work on Rollins park. Mr. -lames H. Bowditch was
called to view this plot of ground and met the commissioners and
looked over the ground fully. It was his opinion, and also the
opinion of the commissioners, that the park should be protected
on the north from intrusion and from unsightly surroundings.
This is an obstacle in the way of completeness of the park, and it
is hoped that the street which was petitioned for will be granted
and a thoroughfare laid out.
The nature of this tract of land being such that it was evident
in the minds of the commissioners that no special attempt at
decoration or beautifying the grounds with choice plants would
be wise, hut rather to make it accessible by means of drives and
paths tor a quiet, restful outing, where people could at once be
PUBLIC PARKS. 291
ushered into dense woods and study the beauties of a woodland
park of natural growth.
The appropriation has been nearly exhausted, and it will need
from year to year an annual appropriation to carry out the plans
already started by the commissioners, and we hope that the
wisdom of the city in protecting this and in the care of it will be
a source of pleasure and pride to the citizens of Concord.
PENACOOK PARK.
Penacook park has also come under the control of the park
commissioners and has been kept in a tidy and neat condition
under the superintendence of Mr. O. F. Richardson. Very few-
people visit these grounds at the present time. An annual appro-
priation will undoubtedly be needed for their maintenance and
care.

CEMETERY DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS.
To tin City Council of the City of Concord:
The Commissioners of Cemeteries beg leave to submit the fol-
lowing report :
The work of care and improvement of the cemeteries has been
carried on the past year as rapidly as the funds placed at our dis-
posal have warranted. A great deal of work has been done at
both cemeteries in repairing the roads and avenues, grading
grounds, etc. We have removed unsightly iron fences and posts
at the Old North cemetery, and otherwise greatly improved its
appearance.
During the year we have laid out and graded another beautiful
plot at the north side of Blossom Hill cemetery, and quite a num-
ber of lots have already been taken.
We have completed the grading of a block to be used as
single-grave lots; also the grounds where the poor can be buried
and suitable headstones will mark their last resting-place.
We have erected a substantial iron fence along the northerly
line of Blossom Hill cemetery, which not only adds to the beauty
of the cemetery but will be found useful, as quite a thorough-
fare had been usurped across the grounds.
The commissioners, while extremely grateful for the appropria-
tion of live hundred dollars by your honorable body, to aid in
the erection of a chapel, waiting-room, and office for the superin-
tendent, still believe that there should be erected a building of
such dimensions and beauty as will warrant you in largely in-
creasing your appropriation for this object.
CEMETERY DEPARTMENT. 295
We possess a cemetery the natural beauty of which is certainly
unsurpassed in the country, and in which every citizen takes jusr
pride.
While the city possesses a cemetery large enough to meet the
requirements for several years, yet your commission would re-
spectfully recommend that action be taken by the city council
looking to the purchase of land lying between the southerly line
of Blossom Hill cemetery and Penacook street.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. O. DICKERMAN,
Secretary of the l'><><trd.

The year has been one of extraordinary expense, portions
of the apparatus having required repairs of an expensive
nature.
The steamer ''Pioneer," at Penacook, has been thoroughly
repaired.
The hose wagons " Kearsarge " and "Eagle" have been
retouched and varnished. New runners have been provided
for the hose wagons kl Alert" and "Good Will." New
poles have been provided for the steamers "Kearsarge" and
" Governor Hill."
The placing in commission of the chemical engine made it
necessary to provide new quarters for the relief steamer,
'•Governor Hill." It also made necessary the building of
a new ladder rack for the storage of spare ladders, the pur-
chase of a pair of horses and the building of additional stalls
for their accommodation.
* Brick, cemented.
33 1 CITY "1 C< >N< ORD.
The placing of permanent men at the hose houses made
it necessary to furnish sleeping apartments in each.
It will be seen by the above that the department has been
compelled to make expenditures by circumstances not likely
to occur again at present.
Four horses and i.ooofect of fabric hose have been pur-
chased during the year. Three hundred and fifty feet of
fabric hose have been re-lined. While the purchase of more
hose at the present time is not absolutely necessary, by pur-
chasing a little more each year than will be presumably
condemned, an annual gain in amount could be obtained
without making serious inroads into the appropriation for any
one year.
The condition of the apparatus at present is such as to war-
rant the belief that expenditures for repairs during the ensuing
year will be verv limited. The connecting of Penacook and
West Concord with the water supply of Boscawen has made
possible far better service in those localities. Formerly, at
Penacook, there being inadequate water pressure, the steamer
was a necessity. This compelled loss of time in waiting for
a large complement of men, or horses, to convey the engine
and heavy, cumbersome reel to the scene.
Xow. with sufficient water pressure, to obtain the best
service it requires the purchase of a hose wagon light enough
to enable three or four men to convey it. with four or five
hundred feet of hose, rapidly to the tire, where they can
couple up and commence operations immediately. The
steamer can be operated later on. if necessary.
The same conditions apply in a measure to West Concord.
they having, however, a hand-engine instead of a steamer.
I respectfully recommend that the hand-engine at West Con-
cord he sold, and that a light hose wagon he purchased for
each of these localities.
1 can only renew my recommendations of last year con-
cerning the value ami need of longer ladders, deluge set. and

FIRE ALARM.
The fire-alarm telegraph system is in good condition.
Eight new boxes, two public and six private, have been
added to the system, and the location of one box has been
changed. Fifteen direct-action tappers have also been added
to the svstem. These tappers are owned by members of the
department, the citv wiring to, and maintaining them. The
battery has been increased from 132 cells to 182 cells, and
the main lines have been extended four miles.
The "Monitor" whistle lias been made an adjunct to the
alarm. This was done largely in the nature of an experi-
ment, but it has proved so valuable that 1 recommend the
purchase of a mechanical whistle-pull to be attached to the
same, and taken into the system. This would enable the
whistle to sound with the bells, and obviate the necessity of
counting one round from the tapper and sounding the whistle
by hand, as is now the case.
The recent troubles arising from electric wires in this city
forcibly remind one of the fact that the repeater, an instru-
ment connected with the alarm, and costing $700, is totally
unprotected from outside crosses. An instrument specially
designed for protecting such appurtenances can be placed in
position for an expenditure of $125. This would not only
protect the citv from financial loss, but from the inconven-
ience that would result from loss of service. It seems to me
that the investment would be a profitable one.
Storage batteries are rapidly displacing gravity batteries for
fire-alarm purposes. Great economy in maintenance is
claimed for them, but perhaps it will be wise to wait and
profit by the experience of other cities before making such a
radical change. *
There are but four call bells in use at present, the remain-
der having been replaced by direct-action tappers. In all
probability before the end of the coming year the extension
call-bell line will have been relegated to oblivion, where it
properly belongs. As a feature of a modern fire-alarm system
336 'in 01 i ONCORD.
it is far from being a success, requiring constant care and
yielding results problematical at best.
It has been the aim of the undersigned to administer the
affairs of this department as economically as possible, com-
patible with a desire to secure the best results.
Respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ELECTRIC WIRES.
To His Ho7ioi- the Mayor and Gentlemen of the City
Council:
I herewith submit my report as inspector of electric wires
for the year 1895.
In submitting this report it becomes my duty to call your
attention to some of the dangers existing in the present con-
struction of wires and other equipments used in conducting
heavy currents of electricity. I will give in the following
order a description of the condition of the different electric
plants as I find them at the present time :
CONCORD LAND AND WATER POWER COMPANY.
This company has control of one of the most powerful
electric plants in the state. It is capable of distributing
four thousand horse-power into any part of the citv. While
this great plant is a welcome addition to our increasing indus-
tries, we must not lose sight of the fact that rules must be
made whereby it can be kept within the safety limits.
This grand electric plant is now furnishing electricity for
S,ooo incandescent lamps, about 600 arc lights, and 500
horse-power of motors, with a steady increase. The wire
required to furnish the current for this vast army of lights and
power is about 150 miles, divided about 7s miles for the
three-phase system, or incandescent, and about 7^ miles for
the arc lights and motors. In looking over the lines of this
ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT. .">77
company I find the condition generally good. While it
might he improved, it will compare favorably with other
cities. The new wire put up by this company I find to be
all right, but some of the old wires, which came into their
possession through the old company, ought to be condemned
(at least a certain part of them), as I find the insulation com-
pletely destroyed by time and the elements. Some of these
wires are carrying 2,000 volts or more of current, and in my
opinion are dangerous to the public. I would suggest some
action be taken at once, and have such wires as are imperfect
replaced by suitable wire of modern insulation.
I would also call your attention to the reels used in lower-
ing and hoisting the street lamps. These reels are attached
to poles, and in some cases are as low as five feet from the
ground. Already two serious accidents have happened by
people coming in contact with them. I would suggest that
all reels and other appliances, attached to poles for hoisting
and lowering lamps, etc., shall be not less than eight feet
from the ground. The above I would recommend in the
interests of public safety.
When this company took possession of the Concord Gas
Light company's plant, most of the old poles were abandoned
and left to decay.
Several property owners have complained to me about their
unsightly appearance, and wish them removed. I would
recommend that these abandoned poles be removed, either by
the Concord Land and Water Power company or the city.
By making the improvements suggested this company's lines
would be in a practically safe condition as far as the street
service is concerned.
CONCORD STREET RAILWAY COMPANY.
This company seems to be abreast of the times in all mod-
ern improvements. In looking over their lines I find nothing
serious to censure. At the present time everything seems to
be in a practically safe condition. I understand it is the
intention of the managers to replace the old wooden poles on
378 ' ITV OF CONCORD.
Main street with strong iron ones in the spring. When this
change is made I would suggest that greater care should be
given to the placing of the guard wire over the main or trolly
wire, as this seems to be the principal fault with the present
construction.
NEW ENGLAND TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE COMPANY.
This company have reconstructed nearly all their lines over
into metallic circuits, this being necessary on account of inter-
ference by induction of the heavily charged wires of the Con-
cord Street Railway and Concord Land and Water Power
companies. I have made a thorough examination of their
lines and find them in hrst-class order. I have advised some
alterations, during the past year, which have been cheerfully
carried out by the obliging officers of this company.
FIRE-ALARM SERVICE.
I have looked over this system of wires and find them in
their usual good condition. There seems to be nothing to
recommend at present. I believe this system will compare
favorably with any of a like nature in the state.
THE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
The plant of this company is in first-class condition in all
respects. They have recently reconstructed all of their lines
north and south, within the city limits, cabled their wires
into their offices, substituted dynamo power in place of the
old stvle of battery, and made many other improvements that
place their system here well abreast with the larger cities in
New England.
POSTAL TELEGRAPH AND CARLE COMPANY.
This company has its wires entering the city over the high-
way via Bridge street. They use the poles of the Concord
Land and Water Power company from the shoe factory to
their office in Smith's block. North Main street. Their lines
ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT. 379
are up in a fair condition, and are very carefully looked after
by the company's manager in this city. I have made several
suggestions to him about a ticker-circoil which, to my mind,
was not properly constructed, and in each case the trouble
was remedied without very much delay.
This company has no wires north of the city.
ELECTROLYSIS.
There is at present serious complaint from our large cities
in regard to the destruction of metal pipes, such as water
pipes, gas pipes, etc., caused by grounding heavy currents of
electricity, which attacks and causes quick destruction of the
metal. I have made several thorough tests but can find
nothing as yet that would lead me to believe that we will have
any trouble from the above source at present.
PRIVATE LINES.
It has been the custom of the city council to grant licenses
for the construction of private lines for different purposes.
These lines are usually constructed by incompetent persons,
who know little, and care less, about such matters. I fre-
quently find these wires strung dangerously near to the
heavily charged arc wires, sometimes crossing them. In
such cases certain conditions would make them fatal. These
things I know nothing about until I have discovered them
myself or my attention is called to them by someone who
has either been injured or understands their dangerous posi-
tion. I would recommend that all private line construction
be referred to the inspector of wires, and that no license be
granted until he has signed a petition recommending the
same.
I would also suggest that where there are now from three
to six small and unsightly poles within as many feet from one
another and occupied by different companies, some arrange-
ment be made whereby one large and substantial pole be
made to carry all wires, thereby doing away with a needless
number and an incumbrance to our streets.
380 CITY OF CONCORD.
In conclusion. I believe our citv is up in all modern
improvements in electricity, and has an electric service second
to none in the state.
I hereby wish to extend my thanks to those who have
assisted me in my duties, and especially to his honor the
mayor, whose kindness in many ways I appreciate.
FRED W. LAXDOX,
Inspector of Electric Wires.
