The Auditing Middle.

On the first page of this Issue we
have given space to an article sent US
by the committee appointed by the
Board of Supervisors at their October
session 70 engage an expert accountant
to examine the county books. The
articles in the Charlevoix papers re-
ferred to were nothing more than just.
That the committee should have Sc
cared outside talent is very evident.
Why they secured the services Of an
attorney TO assist In the work is still
question. The county already has
paid attorney-one of the best In the
county and perhaps the best prosecu-
tor we ever had-and in spite OF this
fact they add to the expense 81. per
day for illegal advice" ia helping the
accountant. AS Mr.. Turrell-the
gentleman sngaged-had already
agreed to furnish his own assistant
and do the work for the $500 less, we
feel inclined to inquire who is to pay
the extra amount-the tax payers or
the committee? Another thing. we
are informed on excellent authority
that the accountants can do this work
at their own sweet will, and II this is
so, who Is going to be time-keeper?
We understand that the investigation
is only to 60 back about six years,
whereas if it is done at all it should
go back to the time Of the fire.
That he committee is in the wrong
is evidenced from the TACT that the
supervisors have gotten together and
as result a call his been issued for
the Board TO meet next Wednesday
afternoon. January 3rd, when the
action of her Committee will looked
up.
Petitions arr being circulated oyer
the county AID freely signtd by all
XpayeTs, asking the Board 10 employ
experienced experts-and preferably
outsi e talrni-to audit the books.
