Your Lordship will see at once by the above comparison,
that the salary and status of a Land Bailiff up till and
including the year 1903 was in some cases HIGHER THAN THE

1903. They therefore maintain that there was no adequate

either Engineers or Senior Surveyors, claim the right to be
on, at least, the same grade as Clerks of Work, Drainage Surveyors, Road Surveyors, Senior Overseer, and Senior
Sanitary Inspectors.
The posts of Road Surveyor and Clerk of Works are at the present time being held by men who have been recently
promoted from First Class Overseers, and who are many years
