PUBLIC ADMINISTRATORS.
An examination of this Office revealed

incumbent kesns in addition for his
own convenience and protection, a regu-
lar double entry set OF books. Tie
Office is now salarled one and there Is
no ground for suspicion that the public
administrator charges exorbitant fees
in order to enhance his own personal
income. The fees prescribed by law in
the settlement OF estates are, when col
lected, turned into the treasury. AS
they aggregate but little more than the
salary allowed the administrator, there
is little ground for the recommendation
that the law be 30 amended as to reduce
the ices now prescribed. There are In
stances where the estates are small and
consist wholly OF personal property In
which the present law works hardship.
Legislation might be possible to remedy
this defect, aud we hope the suggestion
will have the attention OF our law max
ers.
