count of Stale and county licenses
3d. S6 Tor eleven months, ending De-
cemher l., 1875, and that said mount
has been paid to the County 'rreasur

County Clerk.
We find the books in the office of
the County Clerk kept in goou order,
and that the fines imposed by the Dis
trict Cour have been collected and
turned over to the County Treasurer.
County Auditor.
That in Il examination of the
books of the County Auditor, we
deem the Auditor deserving of espe-
else manner in which his books are
kept.
County Treasurer.
Upon our examination of the books
of the County Treasurer, we find that
his last semi annual statements bal
ance with those of the County Auditor.
We counted the funds belonging to the
State and county, which is kept in the
vault of the banking-hou>e of D.. b.
immel * Co., and find his count
correct. The County Treasurer has on
hand, from the different sources of rev.
enue, S45.36o Is %elOnging to the State
and county; 81, l65 Is in excess Of the
uouu he is CHARGED with hy the
County Auditor. This we attribute to
outstanding warrants not yet presented.
County Assessor.
That, in our Judgment, we think the
County Assessor has made a faithful
assessment of the real and personal
property of Eureka county, and that
the revenue so collected has been
turned over to the County Treasurer
and receipts taken therefor as pre-
,c,if,ed by law. We also find that
there has been 1912 poll taxes collected,
slearly 500 IN excess of the number col

good collection.

the Coroner we fini that the duties OF
the office have been well performed,
and that there are a lew accounts in
process oil settlement.
Justice Office.
We find that this office has not been
very reinunerative to the county. That
fines have been imposed to simply
cover costs of suit, for the reason
that larger fines would not he pad,
and if imposed would nece- sitare unnec
essary expense to the county, and that
there is now in the hands of Justice
Beatty So, collected from fines i'm
posed. belonging to the cnuntY.
