The following Table will shew the number of cases, etc., as compared with 1909:-

1909 1910 Cases heard, 382 467 Fines imposed, $1,947.27 $2,627.05 Persons imprisoned 116 139 Warrants issued, 300 292 Opium fines paid to Opium Farm, $470.80 $810.04

Two hundred and seventy-one (271) licences to carry arms were issued as against 274 last year and there was an enormous increase in the number of miscellaneous permits issued. In 1909 they numbered only 341 while this year they amount to 1,256. These permits cover a large variety of subjects repairs of all kinds to houses, graves, roads and bridges and permits for religious and theatrical performances.

IV. SMALL DEBTS COURT.

Two hundred and forty (240) cases were heard under the Small Debts Court Ordinance during the year. There can be no doubt that this Ordinance has been a great boon to the people. The fees are nil with the exception of a fee of $1.00 which is charged in the event of a distress warrant being issued.

V. LAND OFFICE.

In the Land Office 3,885 deeds relating to dealings in land were registered. The Land Ordinance came into force on the 7th July, 1905. The following Table will shew the number of deeds which have been registered annually since that date:-

1905 1906 1907 1908 1909 1910 Total, 1,794 1,407 2,160 2,384 2,544 3,885 14,174

It will be observed that the number of deeds registered during the last five years has increased. The number registered in 1910 shew an increase of 56 per cent. as compared with the number registered in 1909. This I think tends to shew that the system of registration is becoming thoroughly familiar to the people and that it is popular.

One hundred and seventy (170) auctions and 134 sales by private treaty were held during the year. The total amount received as premia was $5,374.71, an increase on the figure for 1909 which was $3,044.00. Altogether 26.97 acres of land were sold which will bring in an annual rental of $333.09.

Seven hundred and sixty-two (762) lots with an area of 55.255 acres were resumed for public purposes (Railway and Roads). The cost of these resumptions was $14,904.07 and the annual rental of the land was $134.71.
