full Act Is Charged.

Montgomery, December 11.-(Special)-
State Examiner German today filed his
report on the Barbour county officers.
He found no case in which an officer had
wrongfully taken a dollar, the errors be-
ing all clerical. These errors in the case
of Circuit Clerk M. j. McCraney were
serious If he has to pay all he is charged
with, although the examiner recommends
that this be not required as the state lost
nothing In short he is charged with
81, 40415 In fees which he collected and to
which he was entitled, but which he for
feited by failing to enter them In his fee
book The law is clear that fees in cost
bills must be entered in the fee book
before the clerk is entitled to them, and If
he falls to so enter them they are for
feited to the state. There are similar
errors charged to him in removal bills
amounting to s17O.92. On other errors he
owes s222.S7
Errors were found in the accounts of
Sheriff Caroway to the amount of $l70i.
Probate Judge Pruett was found to have
made errors to the amount of $50, which
he promptly RENTED. The others were
free from error.
