Commissioners Of Boise County,
Idaho Territory
GEsTLsMEN:-The undersigned hav-
ing been appointed by you to exam
inc and report upon the Books and
Accounts Of the Officers Of Boise
County for the year 1880, respectfully
submit the following report; 10 aoit:
We have carefully examined the
Assessment Roll for 1880, and find
that the footings with the exception
Of few unimportant errors amount
ing to but few ccnts) are correct.
We have compared the Statements, as
furnished us by the Assessor, with the
Assessment Roll and find that all the
property listed, Real and Personal,
has been correctly entered upon prop
erty, less the Tax Collectors percent
age, have been properly paid over to
the County Treasurer, as required by
law, for which payments vouchers
were shown. We find that the total
amount of Taxes upon property, Real
and Personal, to be SIG. O54.2o, being
less than the Taxes Of 1879, in the
sum of $l605.79. We find Delin-
quent List for 1880, Of $4,573.62,
being greater than that Of 1879, in the
sum of 1851, and we would respect
fully call the attention of the Honora-
BILE Board to the fact, that while the
amount Of Taxes for the year 1880, as
compared with 1879, has decreased,
the amount on the Delinquent List has
increased. 1850 Four-Dollar Polls
amounting to $500 have been sold
and the money, less the percentage of
the Collector has been paid into the
County Treasury. The Tax Collector
not having made his final report upon
the Five-Dollar Polls, Road and Hos
pital per Capita, we make no report
We have examined the Books of the
County Auditor and Treasurer, COM
pared the Grand Cash Account with
vouchers and reports of Officers and
find it correct. We have also COM
pared the Grand Cash Account with
the several Funds and find the appor-
tionments correctly made except as
hereinafter specified on moneys collect
ed Oh Delinquent Taxes FIR 1879.
We find that the Treasurer has been
prompt in his settlements with the
Territorial Treasurer, and for the paw
ments vouchers were shown, and thus
the county funds have been discussed
as required by law. Section 50 of the
revenue law, eighth session, makes it

licenses with the Auditor, on the first
Monday in each mouth. Section So.
revenue laws, eighth session, makes
it the duty of the Sheriff with tho
Treasurer, to attend at the Anditar's
,thce on the first Monday in each
month, and settle for all county Hcen-
ses sold. The Auditors books furnish
10 evidence that the law has been
strictly complied with, and we would
eter the Hon. Board to section | page
10, ninth session, which provides that {
the County Treasurer shall receive |
'Aree per cent. upon the amount of
Territorial taxes by him receired and
o1sd opeT, ard to the Auditor three Der
cent upon the Territorial proportion.
The Treasurer has uniformly taken his
upon the Territorial pro- I
portion. The correctness of this we ,
cave to the Hon. Board to determine.

Treasurer for the last quarter of 1880 :
