Examiners Report.

To the Hon. o. W. H. Wright,
Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas, Hooking County, Ohio.
Your committee for the eXami-
nation of the Report of the finan-
cial transactions of the Commits
sioners of Hooking county, Ohio,
for the year ending September lst
1908, beg leave to report as fol-
lows:
We find that said report is not
made in conformity with Section
9l7 X. S. of Ohio. the section
which provides for the making of
said report. That section re-
quires the Commissioners to make
Detailed report in writing,
itemized as to amount, to whom
and when paid, and for what
purpose.
We find that majority of the
The Hocking sentinel. [volume] (Logan, Ohio) 1871-1906, 1903-12-03

bills presented to said board of
Commissioners and allowed by
them, are too vague and uncer-
tain as to the quantity, quality
and price of the articles for which
said bills are allowed, and that,
therefore, the said Board of Com
missioners have not complied with
the requirements of Section OF,
R. S. of Ohio, which section
clearly defines their duties with
reference to the presentation and
allowance of bills.
We further find that said Board
of Commissioners have accepted
and allowed extravagant bills for
stationery and other materials for
the use of county officials.
We, therefore, suggest the
more economical expenditure of
the county's money in the pur-
chase of stationery and other
materials, requisite to the use of
said county officials and necessary
in the discharge of their duties,
officially.
We further find that the Infir-
mary directors, in their report to
the county commissioners, have
not itemized their expenses ac-
count as allowed by Section 96S,
R. S. of Ohio.
We would suggest that the
county commissioners, hereafter,
in accepting the report of the. In
Urinary directors, be more careful
to have the said Board of Direct
ors itemize the bills, presented to
them in conformity with the re-
quirements of law pertaining to
such bills.
We further suggest that the
Infirmary Directors thoroughly
acquaint themselves with the re-
quirements of Section 96S, r. S.
of Ohio.
We have earnestly and care
fully examined the items in the

report submitted to us and the
Vouchers, now on file in the office
of the county Auditor, and find
the amounts set out therein to
correspond and that the amounts
allowed and paid were correct
and legal, except that We find
that the strict requirements of
Section OH and 96S, R. S. of
Ohio, were not fully conformed
to in the preparation of this re-
port and that the bills, presented
and allowed by said Boards of In
firmary directors and commission
ers were not itemized as required
by said sections.
We further recommend that,
hereafter, all bills be presented in
writing in Ink and not in Pencil.
We tender to the county Off
cials, our sincere thanks for the
many kindnesses and courtesies
shown us, during our investiga-
tion of this report.
We are especially grateful to
our county Auditor for courtesies
extended us in our Investigations.

The New Brunswick Home News
predicts that the democratic county
convention will not reach a choice for
senator on the first ballot. That is more
than likely. Everyone knows there
is a warm fight on between the forces
of Mayor Viehmann and George Sill
zer, but both sides are sizing up their
comparative strength before declaring
war openly. Mr.. Silzer is well
thought of in this end of the county
and he seems to be gaining strength
every day in the country districts.
The Home News says that men on the
inside predict that the New Bruins
wick delegation will be split, in which
event the mayor at the county seat
has got a whole lot to think about.

Automobile Freight Trains.

The first road in the world con-
structed especially for automobile
freight traffic is nearing completion in
the heart of Africa. 1t will run over
mountain and plain for 80 miles, from
Longolodo, on the Congo railroad, to
Popokabada, on the Kuango. The Brit
ish government is building the road,
and the work is being lone by hundreds
of natives, under the direction of seven
army officers. The road is intended as
a feeder to the railroad. Automobiles
are to do the hauling, and a special lot
of these have been ordered by the gov
eminent. Each autocar is expected to
carry a load of two tons, and to make
about the same rate that wagon trains
would make. Where the road runs
over plains it is being constructed q
feet wide, but in the mountains it will
be but Is feet wide, or only just enough
for two vehicles to pass.--N. Y. World.

According to the reports of the free.
holders meeting Wednesday after
noon, the county board has practically
agreed to pave with macadam one OF
New Brunsw1ck's streets. What's fair
for New Brunswick is fair for Perth
Amboy and we suggest that the local
freeholders insist upon having Sheri-
dan street paved at county expense,
when it has been worked to the estab-
lished grade. The street leads to the
new bridge and there is nc doubt but
that it will be used by the county as
much, if not more than Somerset
street in New Brunswick. Besides
some scheme ought to be arranged by
which some of this large increase of
county taxes to be paid by Perth Am
boy this year could be brought back
to this city.

Since the Evening News published
an editorial in which it was stated
that there were cities which, in order
to our industries to settle there,
not only agreed not to tax such in
dustries for a period of ten years, but
free sites were offered as an extra inc
duement, doubt has been expressed by
some, who claim to be we'll informed
upon these matters, that such offers
have never been made.
The Evening News referred to towns
and cities in New England and while
it can easily name such places there
as we'll as towns and cities here in
New Jersey making the same offers,
we quote the following from an
article in the Commercial and Finan-
cial World" of New York, telling
how capital is now being attracted to
the State of Virginia;
1.-The principal owner, and founder.
of the Central Land Company, was
the late 9. P. Huntington, for whom
Huntington was named. The princl-
pal asset of the new company, is per-
haps, the lots in and the lands adjoin-
ing the city of Huntington, and, aside
from dealing generally in this real
estate, it is an important part OF the
\ plan of the company to induce the
location of manufacturing and indus
trial plants at that point. With the
4 great advantages of the location, in
the way of transportation by river
and three trunk lines, cheap fuel
coal and natural gas-unlimited limb
eE resources and good labor conditions,
this company proposes to of er special
inducements to meritorious enterprises
in the way of free sites, located con-
v~euiently for rail and river ship
ments.
Admitting that Perth Amboy has
great natural advantages which will
not be overlooked by the manufactur-
or, it must be realized that those
about to locate, all else being equal,
will take the site where the biggest
inducement ARE offered. Perth Am
boy has become so accustomed to see
ing factories locate here without
solicitation that a great many of the
citizens have an idea that these in
dustries could not be driven away.
Competition is becoming so keen
among the cities, however, that the
time is not far distant when, in order
to secure industries of any import
ance, Perth Amboy will have to shake
off some of the Indifference it has
shown in years past and get in with
the rest of the municipalities to bid
for these big concerns.
Even our supremacy in clay deposits
may cease to be a great drawing card.

describing the development of West
Virginia;

deposits to be developed, the coal de-
