SOUTHERN NIGERIA. (For Report for 1903, m No. 406.) REPORT ON THE BLUE BOOK FOR THE YEAR 1903. FINANCIAL. 1. The revenue for the financial year 1902-3, ending on 31st March, 1903, received from all sources amounted to £440,809, while the expenditure for the period amounted in the aggregate to £455,293. In addition to the revenue collected during the year a cash balance oi £50,692 was brought forward from the previous year which gave a total sum of £491,501 available for expenditure. REVENUE. 2.

This increase was largely due to a lnore settled state of affairs in the country generally. The expedition in the Aro country was completed in March, 1902, and trade, which had never quite stopped, revived considerably in the oil-producing areas. The financial year of the Pro­ tectorate is from the 1st April to the 31st March, and for this period, 1902-3, th^ revival of trade continued. Importers had ordered large consignments previous to the conclusion of military operations and these orders swelled the imports for the third and fourth quarters of the year 1902. In this con­ nection the revenue derived from Customs duties for the period, i.e., the financial year, is to be observed. The amount of duty collected from specific goods imported shows an in­ crease of £71,468*: an increase of £2,644, only, appears under ad valorem. The amount collected from ad valorem duties for 1901-2 was £24,114 in excess <Sf that collected in 1900-1; but it must be observed that on the 1st April, 1901, ad valorem duty was increased from 6 per cent, to 10 per cent. The duty collected on " specific" goods for the same period amounted to £50,651 less. These figures taken together indicate heavy importation« in 1902 and that the increase of revenue under ad valorem duties in 1903 is satisfactory. 3. The increase under " Fees" of £701 arises principally from export dues on timber. 4. During the year the stock of old stamps was withdrawn and the King's head series issued. This was necessarily anti­ cipated by an extensive purchase of stomps by collectors. The increase (£602) under this head therefore does not imply an increase of postal business. " Money Order Commissions," a sub-head under "Fees," shows an increase 'of £57 over the sum (£265) realised in 1901-2: this is insignificant in amount but appreciable in a small community. • 5. The amount of revenue collected under u Miscellaneous " shows an increase of £4,196 compared with the receipts for the previous year. The increases occurred under " Sale of seized property," £165; " Interest," £388; and " Other w^ices un­ specified," £5,492. Ar amount of £3,169 charged to the Government of the Gold Coast on account of the Ashanti Expedition was credited to the last-mentioned sub-head. 6. The foregoing paragraphs deal with the period of the financial year as has hitherto been customary, but this year has so long: closed that the figures have lost much of their interest. Similar information is therefore given so far as it can be ascertained—with accounts kept for years ending on 31st March—for the calendar year, 1903. 7. The revenue for the calendar year 1903 received from all sources amounted to £429,283, The following statement shows Jiow, it is derived, SotmifefeN NIGERIA, 1903. & 1903.

LEGISLATION AFFECTING REVENUE. 8. The European Reservation Proclamation, No. 10 of .1902, came into operation on the 1st January, 1903. Under this Proclamation Local Boards of Health were enabled to be established. •» 9. The revenue of the 'Board derived from rates levied, rents paid, &c, is payable to the Treasurer of the Board, but the High Commissioner has power at any time to direct that any surplus revenue shall form part of the revenue of the Protectorate. 10. By Section 50 of Rule No. 7 of 1902, made under the Mining Regulation Proclamation, No. 18 of 1902, a fee of £1 per annum for every square mile or part thereof of lands named in the* licence is payable by the holder of an exclusive licence; £5 for every assignment or transfer of an exclusive license; £b by every holder of a general licence, and other fees. 11. Patients' fees ranging from one shilling to ten shillings per day are payable under Section 20 of Rule No. 11 of 1903, made under the Hospital and Dispensaries Proclamation, No. 7 of 1903.

The increase £29,172 in the expenditure of the Marine Department is accounted .for by an increase in staff, European and Native, cost of coal, and the purchase of the sternwheeler " Valiant" for Niger Transport.* 15. During the year an increase of Native Staff was made in the principal departments at headquarters; this having been found necessary to cope with the increase of work and to enable the proper amount of effective work to be done daily within reasonable hours. This, to a large extent, accounts for the increases under the heads "Treasury," "Custom*," and " Secretary." 16. The head " Legal" was, up to 1900-1, included in "Judicial." 17. In 1901-2 the head " Prisons " included the expenditure under " Police." The increase. of expenditure (£888) under " Forestry and Botanical" is accounted for by the appointment of a Conservator of Forests. The increase (£3,690) under " Medical" was owing to the delay in payment of salaries to Medical Officers employed upon Expeditionary Works; -as also to expenditure under new sub-heads for " Outfit allow­ ances to medical officers " and " Expenses of doctors at School of Tropical Medicine." Passages of officers are debited to " Transport," and to an increase of staff is largely due the corresponding increase in expenditure (£3,832). All expenses necessarily incurred in opening up new country, establishing new markets, and making customary gifts to native chiefs is charged to the head "Aborigines," and the increased expendi­ ture (£1,808) is due to the large areas brought under effective control during the year. 18. In the report on *the Blue Book for 1902, in reference to the surplus of revenue over expenditure of £30,419, it was observed that this surplus rould have been largely reduced had it been possible to bring to account all expenses incurred during that financial yo»rHy the military options: then taking place in the Aro country. The expenses of Expedi­ tionary Works are charged under "Miscellaneous" am? the increased expenditure (£20,994) was principally incurred jn connection with the Aro Expedition. The cost of establishing new districts, a natural sequence to any expedition of import­ ance, was also an important item in the expenditure under this head.

  • The Rifle Club Movement and Australian Defence 1860-1941
    The Rifle Club Movement and Australian Defence 1860-1941 Andrew Kilsby A thesis in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of New South Wales School of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences February 2014 Abstract This thesis examines the rifle club movement and its relationship with Australian defence to 1941. It looks at the origins and evolution of the rifle clubs and associations within the context of defence developments. It analyses their leadership, structure, levels of Government and Defence support, motivations and activities, focusing on the peak bodies. The primary question addressed is: why the rifle club movement, despite its strong association with military rifle shooting, failed to realise its potential as an active military reserve, leading it to be by-passed by the military as an effective force in two world wars? In the 19th century, what became known as the rifle club movement evolved alongside defence developments in the Australian colonies. Rifle associations were formed to support the Volunteers and later Militia forces, with the first ‘national’ rifle association formed in 1888. Defence authorities came to see rifle clubs, especially the popular civilian rifle clubs, as a cheap defence asset, and demanded more control in return for ammunition grants, free rail travel and use of rifle ranges. At the same time, civilian rifle clubs grew in influence within their associations and their members resisted military control. An essential contradiction developed. The military wanted rifle clubs to conduct shooting ‘under service conditions’, which included drill; the rifle clubs preferred their traditional target shooting for money prizes.

The first durbar, in 1876-77, proclaimed Queen Victoria as Empress of India, whilst the second and third, in 1902-3 and 1911, proclaimed the accessions of Edward VII and George V respectively. All three drew upon Indian traditions of ceremonial meetings or durbars between rulers and ruled, and in particular upon the Mughal Empire's manner of expressing its power to its subject princes.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis will prove that the Montreal reform movement arose out of a desire of the richer wards to control municipal politics. The poorer wards received most of the public works because they were organized into a political machine. Calling for an end to dishonesty and extravagance, the reform movement took on a party form. However after the leader of the machine retired from municipal politics, the movement lost its momentum. The reform movement eventually became identified as an anti-trust movement. The gas, electricity, and tramway utilities had usually obtained any contracts they wished, but the reformers put an end to this.

    Our Brothers Across the Ocean? Unionist Diplomacy, the Lansdowne Foreign Office, and the Anglo-American 'Special Relationship', 1900-1905 BY Iestyn Michael Adams Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD. The University of Leeds Department of History February 2002 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS During the conception and preparation of this thesis, I have received valuable assistance from my postgraduate supervisor, Dr. Keith Wilson, who has offered me encouragement and guidance throughout the last four years. He clearly understood my goals and interests, and has frequently given me much needed advice. Without his help, needless to say, this book would not exist I am also indebted to the staff of the Public Record Office, the British Library and the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds. I particularly wish to thank Robert Smith - the Curator of the as yet uncatalogued Lansdowne collection in the British Library - who gave me his time, and who suggested further research avenues. On a personal note, I gratefully acknowledge the support from friends and family, especially my parents and Colette Maher. My final words of thanks go Andrea Myers, Peter Myers and Richie Lane who, together, helped to provide accomodation during my frequent trips to London. 1 ABSTRACT This study is intended as a detailed exploration of British diplomacy with the United States in the first five years of the twentieth century, that is, the period during which the Marquis of Lansdowne presided at the Foreign Office.

  • Football Club Is in Making
    ASIA’s FIRST C PERATIVE FOOTBALL CLUB IS IN MAKING. www.smri.in We dare to dream India wins FIFA World Cup and an Indian football club defeats giant clubs like Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Manchester United at their home grounds. You can label our dreams as 'impossible good dreams' or 'madness'. But, some logic and history inspire our mad dreams. www.smri.in Who told only Celebrities, Crorepatis & Corporate houses can START a football club? Common People founded Uncommon Clubs! In 1895 a group of Oxbridge graduates founded the club Football Goal. In 1900 this club split into two different clubs New Foot-Ball de Madrid and Club Español de Madrid. In 1902 the latter club split again, resulting in the formation of Real Madrid FC on March 6, 1902. On 22 October 1899, Hans Gamper placed an advertisement in Los Deportes declaring his wish to form a football club; a positive response resulted in a meeting at the Gimnasio Solé on 29 November. Eleven players attended and Football Club Barcelona was born. When the Munich gymnastics club decided that the footballers of the club would not be allowed to join the German Football Association (DFB), eleven members of the football division left the congregation and on the same evening founded Fußball-Club Bayern München.
