state was begun yesterday, the sessions
being held in the club rooms Of the
Slavery hotel. The attendance is larger
than in former years, and the interest

general public, so far as the office Of the
county auditor ia concerned. Organ
ization was effected and the necessary
committees appointed at the forenoon
session Tuesday, and In the afternoon
the business OF the meeting was taken
up.

creased by act of the boards of supervi-

this amount raised to $1,000. This ac-
ton was heartily commended in let
