A newcrule will be practiced by
the clerk OF the courts when
records in his custody are once properly
and permanently arranged in the new
office. No one will be allowed to enter
the vault in search of books or files save
the attendants or clerks employed in
the office. This rule will be rigidiy en-
forced, without discrimination. The ap-
pOintmentS of the new office will be as
perfect as the good Judgment of Clerk
p'COnnor and the arrangement of the
fixtures can make them. There will
hot be dozen or more attorneys climb
ing about the vault, misplacing files and
hndoing tile work which much time and
pains have kept in semi-perfect
state in the old Office. There are
of the clerk. For these he is
personally responsible to the county. as
well for the eXcellences or defects of
his system of preserving and exhibit
ing them. With his able and efficient
staff of deputies, attorneys and other
patrons Of the Office will be civiIIy and
promptly waited upon when files from
the vault are wanted for purposes of
proper investigation. The sheriff
office was dull all day. Persons in debt
to the county for personal taxes. which
are in the sheritf's hands for collection,
and have long ago become delinquent,
are struggling in and paying up. Out
of the original list of 1900 delinquents,
about 500 have paid up within the past
ten days. Auditor Kahn is in New
York, and business being extremely
slack in his department., nothing I'M
usual occurs about that office. The
same may be said of Assessor Har-
roun's Office, who is enjoying a few
days rest.
