THE Auditor Shall annually, on or be-
fore the first day of October deliver to
the County Treasurer true copy or du-
plicate of the book containing the tax
list required to be made by him for the
year.-Sec 1912 ReoiSed Statutes.
The County Treasury has less than ST.
900 in its vault, and the probability is a
further loan will have to be made, in an
ticipation of the fall collection. Mean
time the originals of the tax lists were
delivered to the Treasurer only last Mon
day, and not stroke of pen has been
made upon the copy required to be kept
in the Auditors Office.
We presume this is a species of the re-
form promised the people in the hand
