mon Pleas, yesterday, ex-Mayor Hall moved before
Judge Robinson on behalf OF George b. Brown for
mandamus to compel Controller Green to Mr. Brown
$4,000 the amount audited and allowed by the Board OF
Supervisors for stationery supplied to them by the
relator on their order County Auditor Carlo reduced
the bill Sc another item Of over $780,
improperly included. Mr.. Hall claimed that
the action OF the Board was final and
elusive as 70 the validity Of the fclaim
and value OF the goods furnished and that all the County
Auditor could do merely 10 compare the voucher
and see II their gross amounts conceded with the amount
authorized by the Supervisors but that he not at
liberty attack the validity OF the bills or the amount
OF the charges Counsel argued that to appoint Board
OF Supervisors audit and allow bills and then 10 place
all power audit in the hands OF the County Auditor
an absurdty aud deprived the Board OF all their
functions.
Mr.. Dean, who represented the Controller cited the
OF Ellis Green TO show that the County Auditor
had power to examine and pass upon bills, He replied
to Mr. Has argument that the function OF the Board
Ter the goods and the function Of the Auditor
Is deal with the dollars aud cents and That the
bills we're correct. Judge Robinson reserved decision.
