New-York City has been fortunate in having
industrious Surrogates of late or the business Of
that office would be hopelessly bchindhand. Inc
report of the Surrogate for last year shows that IN
some departments of the office the amount OF olsl-
ness transacted has been twice great as that
which former Gurrogatcs had to dispose OF IN the
same period of time. The clerical force is some
what larger than it formerly was, but there Is
still only one official to supervise the diversified
transactions Of the Office and to decide upon i'm
porant matters as judicial officer While there Is
a strong opposition among lawyers TO the proposal
to elect two Surroy gates to have equal jurisdiction
there is equally strong sentiment IN favor o.
some form Of relief for the OYerworllcd Official.
The appointment of Deputy. Surrogate who might
perform some of the laboriOus dnties at present
imposed upon the head Of the office is suggestei
as affording measure of relief and other plans
have their advocates. Some means OF aiding
the busy Surrogate must be devised or the work
OF the important Office cannot longer be- performed
with the promptness which the public interests
require.

If South Carolina loses money through the de-
falcation Of its former Acknowledgement, the
loose methods II managing the State funds are
partly responsible The AdjutantIicneral in ac-
cordancc with an old custom was allowed TO draw
from the Treasury large sum Of money which
had been appropriated for certain expenses OF the
National Guard for the entire year. This money
he could place to his private credit and could
draw on it as needed. The financial difficulties
of the late occupant of the office led TO his APP
propriating some Of the money to his own use, ana
he found that he could not replace il when 1t was
needed for pablo purposes. The placing Of large
sums Of money in the private bank accounts OF
officials is only temptation 10 dishonest acts

vision Hereafter over the accounts Of its officials
