MY LOUD, I ifAVE the honour to transmit the Blue Book for 1909, together with an interesting report on it which has been prepared by Lieutenant-Colonel O'Brien, CM.G., the Colonial Secretary. I have, &c, GEORGE C. DENTON, Governor. The Right Honourable The vSecretary of State for the Colonies, 0«8&9—2,) Wt. 27349—887. 1126 * 85. 7/10. D k 8 4 COLONIAL BBPOBT8—IVVVAL. REPORT ON THE BLUE BOOK FOR 1909. FINANCIAL. The revenue, the largest yet recorded in this Colony, amounted to £72,675 11*. 10<2., and exceeded that o! 1907 (the next largest) by £6,783, and that of 1908 by £14,77" 11*. 9d. The estimated revenue for the year was £59,614 and the actual revenue received exceeded this by £13,101 11*. lOd. This large increase is due to the exceptionally good ground-nut season. The increase is accounted for chiefly under the following heads:— " Customs," £9,795, due to the larger importation of spirits and tobacco and to the larger exportation of ground-nuts, on which there is a duty of 6a. 8d. per ton. " Post Office," £1,585, is owing to the sale of the new issue of stamps. "Miscellaneous," £440, almost entirely due to the profit on the supply of rice to the natives in the Protectorate during 1907¬ 1908 paid for in 1909. " Protectorate," £668, caused by the greater influx of farmers and by more pasturage fees and rents being paid. " Land Sales," £564, due to the transfer of " Premiums on leases" to this head from that of "Protectorate." There is a decrease of £94 under " Fees " due to over-esti­ mating, and one of £126 under " Government Vessels " due to the Colonial steamer, " Mansah Kilah," having been laid up lor some time for repairs, her earnings being less in consequence. The amount of revenue received under "Customs" was: — import duty, £37,420; export duty, £17,881; making a total of £65,301. Thft following return shows the amount collected under the several Customs headings for the years 1908 and 1909 with their respective increases and decreases: — ! Heada of Receipts. 1908. 1909.

Qd. less than the Estimates. The principal increases are accounted for as follows: — Governor (£124), due to underestimate of (1) the allowance drawn by the Deputy-Governor and A.D.C. and Private Secretary to the Acting Governor, and (2) travelling allowances. Government Vessels (£264), due to special repairs in dry dock at Dakar (French Senegal) to the Government steamer " Mansah Kilah," and excess on the coal vote. Agriculture (£281), due to purchase of two Ayrshire bulls and salary of attendants, forage, &c. The principal decreases are as under: — Colonial Secretary (£182), due to salary saved during vacancy in this appointment. Protectorate (£833), due to over-estimatiug under several sub­ heads. Education (£206), due to a vacancy in one appointment, and to overestimating the earnings of the schools. Frontier Force (£241), due to most items being over-estimated. Public Works Recurrent (£297), due to certain works not having been fully completed in the year. Public Works Extraordinary (£443), due to the inclusion of the tramline loan, it having been placed in the Estimates under this vote and subsequently adjusted. The actual expenditure (omitting the tramline amount of £750) was in excess of the Estimates, owing to the extra cost of the Kai Hai works. The following return shows the revenue and expenditure for the past ten years: — Year. Revenue. Expenditure. £ £ 1900 49,161 29,818 1901 43,726 48,518 1902 51,016 51,536 1903 55,564 67,504 1904 54,179 52,300 1905 ... 51,868 72,297 1906 65,430 56,988 1907 65,892 57,729 1908 57,898 6i,097 1909 72,675 56,237 No additional taxatiou was introduced during the year. The amount standing to the credit of the Colony on the 31st December, 1909, was £58,276 1*. 8rf., as compared with £39,574 14*. bd., being an increase of £18,701 7*. U. If from this sum the value of Public Works Department stores on si^ck on 31st December, 1909, included ns an asset for the first time, is deducted, viz.: £2,263 3*. lid., the actual cash increase in the year 1909 amounted to £16,438 3.*. W. COLONIAL ftEPOfctS—ANNUAL. The surplus funds are invested in Government securities, and on 31st December, 1909, amounted to £29,110 5*. 3c/., the actual cost having been £28,375 6*. 9d. The Colony Jjas no public debt. The legal tender and usual currency is British, but a great number of five-franc pieces are in circulation the estimated value of which is £150,000; and these are received at an exchange value of 3*. 10\d. B^nk of England notes are not legal tender but are accepted at the Bank of British West Africa, the only bank in Bat hurst. The circulation is small. There is also a little French gold in the Colony. The average rate of exchange for bills drawn on London during the year was one per cent. There are two Municipal Boards in the Colony, namely, the Board of Health (which consists of the Senior Medical Officer as Chairman, and the Colonial Engineer (both ex-officio), and six members appointed by the Governor) and the McCarthy Square Board. The revenue of "the Board of Health is derived from rates levied on the annual value of house property in the town at 3 per cent., and from fees collected from the slaughter-house, and a #rant-in-fcid from Government. The following was the revenue received in 1909:—Local rates, £556; slaughter-house fees, £89; grant-in-aid, £400: miscella­ neous, £2; total, £1,047. The expenditure under all heads, including scavengering and lighting, amouuted to £1,181. The market is under the supervision of an inspector and is visited daily by a medical officer. It is in every way suitable to the requirements and the climate. The slaughter-house is an iron structure built out into the river and approached by a pier. McCarthy Square is situated in the centre of the town and is used as a parade ground by the West African Frontier Force and as a recreation ground for the public. Its upkeep is provided for by a grant from Government. TRADE. The total value ol the trade of the Colony, inwards and out­ wards, for the year 1909 amounted to i'882,624, against £704,878 in 1908, an increase of £117,040. The total value of all imports was £404,500, against £300,740 in 1908, being an increase of £13,820.

Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865-1922), acquired The Times newspaper in 1908. In adding the most influential and reliable voice of the British establishment and of Imperially- fostered globalisation to his growing portfolio of newspapers and magazines, Northcliffe aroused some opposition among those who feared that he would rely on his seemingly infallible ear for the popular note and lower the tone and weaken the authority of The Times. Northcliffe had long hoped to prise this trophy from the control of the Walters family, convinced of his ability to make more of the paper than they had, and from the beginning applied his singular energy and intuition to improving the fortunes of ‘The Thunderer’.

  • Gazette 1905 - 1909
    Index: Middleboro Gazette 1905 - 1909 Introduction The Middleboro Gazette Index, 1905 - 1909 is a guide to the information contained within the Middleboro Gazette during the period January 1905 through December 1909. The information is as it appears in the newspaper and no attempt has been made to verify that the information given in the newspaper is accurate. The focus of the index is on the communities of Middleboro and Lakeville, Massachusetts. News from outside these geographic areas is included only if there is a direct link to these towns, i.e., Phineas T. Barnum and the Little People. Special notations are used within the index to designate editorials (e), letters (l), tables (t), photographs (p) and illustrations (i). Authors of editorials or letters are cited either within the headline or in parentheses immediately following either (e) or (l). The often informal nature of reporting presents special challenges to researchers. Additional information about specific businesses, town departments or other concerns can be located under general headines, i.e., Railroads, Streets, etc. Names are a particular challenge in a compilation of this kind. Multiple spellings, misspellings and incomplete names are just a few of the hurdles that must be overcome in order to glean every bit of information contained within the pages of the Gazette. For example, Mr. Elnathan W. Wilbur may be cited as any or all of the following: Wilbur, Elnathan W. Wilbur, Elnathan Wilbur, E.W. Wilbur, E. Wilbur (Mr) Wilbur (Captain) Mr. Wilbur’s last name may also be spelled, Wilbor, Wilber, Wilbour or Wilbur. In addition married women were also frequently cited as Mrs.

  • Guide to Marianne Moore Series VI Family Correspondence
    Series VI: Family Correspondence Family correspondence is arranged chronologically. Beginning in 1848, it includes letters to and from the Rev. John Riddle Warner (MM’s maternal grandfather) from the time of his early pastoral work in Pennsylvania. Most of these letters (1848-1859) are written by or to Henry and Mary Warner (his parents), Henry Warner (his brother), and Annie Warner (Mrs. Robert) Armstrong (his sister). Other letters addressed “Dear Brother: ae from his ministerial colleagues. Beginning about 1859 there are added letters to and from Jennie Craig, who became his wife in 1860; her brother, George Craig; and the Eyster family, relative of the Craigs. Many letters are addressed from Laurel Hill, Pennsylvania, home of Jennie Craig and her family near Gettysburg. Jennie and John Warner lived near Gettysburg after their marriage. Mary Craig Warner was born to John and Jennie Warner in 1862. In September 1863, Jennie Warner died as a result of the disease which infested the Gettysburg area after the Civil War battle there. Infant Mary went to live with her Warner grandparents in Allegheny, Pennsylvania (now part of Pittsburgh). Letters from her to her “Pa” begin about 1870. About 1865, her father moved to Kirkwood Presbyterian Church. When Mary Warner reached high school age, she joined him, and attended the Mary Institute in St. Louis. She married John Milton Moore in 1884 and moved with him to Newton, Massachusetts, where their son, John Warner Moore, was born in 1886. While there, her husband suffered a nervous breakdown, and Mary Warner Moore returned to her father’s home in Kirkwood.
