ind that the term OF ofles Of the original sink
ing Fund Commission expired respectively in
isss,iso7 and 1898, and that no successors have
been named or qualified to serve in this very
Important natter also no special tax was
levied for this purpose from the time these
bonds were issued up to the year 1894 and the

Tax Collector, awaiting the appointment and
qualification Of a Sinking Fund Commission.
IN our effort to ascertain the gross receipts
and expenditures Of the county, as well a. tho
different accounts for which the money Is ex-
pended, We have been considerably handicap
ped on account Of the unsatisfactory ethod d
bookkeeping in use By the County comrIs-
sioners. which is the same that has been for
years. We therefore recommend that com
plete and comprehensive system Of bookkeeping
be adopted by them as soon as practicable and
kept by their clerk. Also that the clerks Of the
Superior and City courts keep an account Of
the total expenses Of their respective courts,
term BY term, and make report Of same to ey-
cry succeeding Grand Jury.
In connection with the Tax Digest, we have
to call attention to the fact that many property
owners are avoiding the payment Of taxes BY
making retuyns unquestionably far below any
reasonable valuation OF their properties, and
we recommend that the Receiver Of Tax Re-
turns use his prerogasiye Of carrying out the
law allowing him 30 decline to receive such
returns, or report each ease to the Grand Jury,
as prescribed, and have such property holders
tared in accordance with the law.
