would need two extra clerks to assist him
IN making up the new register. The Board
authorized him TO employ them.
M. K. Beard appeared before the Board
to ask that the Thenis be allowed to pub.
lish the county financial statement.
Supervisor Greer was opposed to this.
He said the Board had established a rnle
that only two papers In the county should
publish the statement at one time. and il
had been understood that each paper
would be given its turn. The paper men.
toned would have its turn, and he was
opposed to additional expenses now.
Mr.. Tebbets said the 1hemiS had been ig-
nored in all previous awarding of printing,
which he considered unfair. He was in
favor of giving the last financial statement
to that paper even if it did cost more.

that he was fighting any newspapers, but
he was opposed to allowing more than two

economical reasons.
After considerable talk vote was taken
and Mr.. Greer was voted down.
The Board then resolved itself again into
Board Of Equalization but shortly after
ward adjourned, there being nothing of
importance to transact.
