arrosr OF xxrssTs ON AUDITORS BOOKS.
The experts appointed BY the County
Commissioners to examine the Auditors
books reported that the books were In q
very unsatisfactory condition. There
arc no books prior to 1867, and from
that date the books have been kept
without the sligbtest regard to order or
simplihcaiion. The early Auditors. IL
would appear. bad bat little faith 10 the
permanently OF the county. and thought
In the near future NO books would BE-
needed. The books show d bits In
excess Of credits to the amount Of $48l..
645 20. These books cannot be bal.
auced in their present condition and to
balance them would require rejournal.
izing and reposting them. aud the result
would not justify the cost. Instances OF
irregular entries are cited In the report
from 1867 to 1873. All the foregoing
applies to the Auditors books In gen.
sraf.
The books a. kept by the present
Auditor. with the exception that he has
forced no balances and that all direct
entries have been properly kept, can no
more be balanced than the old ones. and
no moro than the latter show upon their
face the exact financial condition OF the
county or the state OF Its various funds
and %oomparativs assets. In excavation
Of the present 1 uditor It should be taken
into consideration that he has followed
tho footsteps Of his predecessors and has
made neither innovations nor improve
ments; but his books are correct to the
extent OF the work In his hand and all
charges arc properly entered. In neat
ness they are not inferior to those Of his
predecessors. Ipregard 10 the charge OF
entering vouchers to the wrong account,
the experts report oil these are to be
paid out OF the general fund and Il Ii
optional with the Auditor whether he
keeps such accounts or not, and 1t can.
not make any difference with the county
to what particular account they are
charged.
The report suggests . new set Of books
with Q thorough system OF double entry,
aud to open accounts with each fund.
Final balances are submitted and re-
capitulstions 10 the report. In conclu.
sion the report states that the Auditor 10
hsdgsd by statutory provisions and
forms, 10 that the county cannot be de-
fraudsd unless BY collision with all
county officials.
The county records are In good order.
Omissions In indsxing have been rsoti-
Asd.
