GLYNN'S ACTION
IS FOLLOWED BY
OTHER COUNTIES
CHATHAM ALSO WANTS OFFICE
OF COUNTY TREASURER
ABOLISHED.
Glynn Commissioners Have Already
Taken Action and It Is Likely That
the Present Grand Jury Will Also
Pass Resolutions.

Following the action Of the commis-
sioners of Glynn county, who. sew.
eral months ago, passed resolutions in
favor OF the abolition of the office of
county treasurer, a Chatham county
grand jury has taken like action.
and it is now probable that bill
viii be introduced in the legislature,
at its coming session, providing for
the abolition of the office in a number
of counties -
This question mas been a live one
for the past several years. especially
in Glynn county, but no definite act
ion was taken until few months ago
when the board of commissioners took
STEP forward and passed resolutions
calling for the abolition of the office
They stated, in support of the reso-
luton, that there was really no need
for such an office, that it was an ex-
pense to the county which could easily
be eliminated, and poi2ted out that
the county's funds could be deposited
in the various banks Of the city, that
the institutions would be glad to
handle it direct. and that the expense
of a treasurer, Which is a well-paid
office. could be saved by the tax
payers.
1t has been hjnted that the present
grand jury, when they submit their
general presentments, probably the
latter part of the coming week. will
also recommend that the office be
abolished, and it is not at all unlikely
that Representative Reese will be
asked to introduce such a bill IN the
Legislature next Dlontll
Glynns action has been followed by
more than one county in the state,
but Chatham's grand jury at ses-
sion held Friday, passed the following
resolution Gayoring the abolition of
the Office:
After carefully looking into the du-
ties of the different county officers
and the COS. to the county, we find
the Office of county treasurer, as it is
a4tCN ifAAAy NAAbAlCl5 uhhCGGSodiJ dHu IL
expense that this county can well save,
ard This grand jury UNANIMOUSLY rec
ommend that the proper steps be TAX
en- by the proper parties to legally
abolish the position OF county treas
urer and arrange for the depositing
of the county funds in some banking
institution, so that interest can be
had on deposits and all the expenses
OF this office be saved.
I'VE, the jury, unanimously recon
mend to the county commissioners
that a>bill be prepared by the county
attorney to allow them to abolish the
office of county treasurer to take ef-
feet at the expiration of the term OF
flee of the present incumbent"
If a similar resolution is passed by
the present GlyEn grand inry, it is
more than probable that bill abolish
ing the Office will be introduced a.
the coming session al the legislature
