The Committee Of the Whole reported
progress on plans and specifications for

The District Attorney reported on the
Auditors communication on the Assess.
or's office. He found csrelessuess. but
no willful wrong. The explanation given
by the District Attorney was that several
persons were employed and their duties
we're somewhat conflicting. One sup.
posed another TO have done certain
things and they were not done at all.
The $l06 receipt was duly stubbed
and the stub was put with the money In
the vault and was neglected. as the
Board OF Equalization was In session
and the Assessors report made. The
amount had since been paid over to the
Treasurer.
The So receipt was the first one In q
book which was not used till some weeks
after, and was therefore overlooked.
When the book came into use the sup.
position was natural that the money had
been previously accounted for.
The neglect TO report tho SIT was o
clear oversight.
The Assessor had reported and paid
$50 when he should have paid but $25
"A clerical error.
One charge should not have been
made by the Auditor, because Il was
criminal and there was no proof Of 1t
further than Q mans say 80. This wa
that this man had paid his personal pro.
psrty tax and had been given Q receipt
on ordinary paper. This, II true. was Q
criminal offenss. The man now said he
had lost the receipt. Il looked az II the
man was moro at fault than any n
else.
COMMISSIONS Canavan remarked that
the report Of the District Attorney
showed that the examination by the
Grand Jury experts Of the Assessors
Office must have been very loose indeed.
