THE COUNTY FUND.
Much comment has been made be-
cause the county fund is overdrawn, and
the Treasurer cannot pay orders drawn
against it. If any one will take the trou>
BILE to look at our annual report, rub~
lished in September in the Stark County
Democrat, Canton Repository, and AlliN
ance ReVteaV, he will see detailed state
ment of the disbursements under that
fund for the year ending Sept Ist. 1t
will be seen that there are very many
items which the Commissioners do not
disburse directly, and the amount of
which they cannot control. The tax
was levied up to the limit allowed by
law, and we cannot see how we can be
held responsible for the large overdraft.
THE ANNUAL STATEMENT.
Complaint has been made that we did
not file our annual report in the Court of
Common Pleas, so that examiners might
be appointed to examine our accounts.
On Sept 8, 1877, we filed our report
with Clerk Page for the year ending Sep~
tember Ist. 1t has been customary for
the Court to appoint two, examiners dur
ing the first term after the September
settlement. The term of Court which
began September sd, has not yet ended.
Doubtless the Judge will attend to his
duty in proper time. %
