The Municipal year book and public utilities directory online

This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Usage guidelines

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

We also ask that you:

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

THE MUNICIPAL YEAR BOOK 1908.

It has been found necessary once again to enlarge and develop the Municipal Year
Book, and the present edition contains nearly 300 pages more matter than its
immediate predecessor. The familiar features have been thoroughly revised, and in
many cases extended, and a special effort has been made to trpat Scottish Local
Government on lines as generous as those hitherto followed in regard to England and
Wales. Further, the book has been rearranged with the object of facilitating its use
as a work of reference.

The new sections include those devoted to minor local government bodies such as
burial, harbour, dock and pier, port sanitary, joint hospital, and joint water and gas
authorities ; a digest of leading cases, and the text of the Acts of Parliament affecting
local government that were passed in the Session of 1907 ; the Report of the Depart-
mental Committee on- Local Accounts; and a "Labour" section, which incorporates
specimen " fair wages " clauses in corporation contracts, tables showing the wage and
labour conditions of various classes of municipal employees, &c. The " Municipal
Trading-*' section is considerably extended, and in the housing section will be found
some valuable information respecting Town Planning.

As for the general scheme of the book, a brief review is given of the work of each
local authority in alphabetical order, under the name of the city, town, or district, and,
wherever possible, the statistical and other information is arranged in a series of
sections in tabular form. The advantage of this method is that while the figures relating
to particular enterprises are easily accessible, there is presented at the same time a
complete analysis of municipal activity throughout the countr>^ In this way, those
referring to the volume can obtain statistics required for general comparative purposes
with no more trouble than is needed to secure the figures for any individual authority.

The book is divided into sections as follows : —

SECTION I. (Pares â–  to aoa.) SECTION 4* (Pages 363 to 3^7-)
