COUNTY FINANCEs.-lac reports Of the late
County Auditor and Treasurer gives the to;a.
debt Of the county in round numbers at 100000.
Three years ago It was Sl7I,eo0. The debt at
this rate is being cxtinguishcd ut $4,000 per
annum. As the debt decreases the interest does
also, leaving the more year by year to be applied
to the liquidation of principal. It is estimate!
that in three or four years at most the entire
debt may be cancelled.
