The recommendation OF State Audi
tor Bleakley that the state enter upon
the policy of inspection of county &C
counts the same as the accounts of
state offices and of all municipalities
of large size, will probably meet with
the favor of the legislature. This was
urged some years ago WHe1 the iuuHic-
ipal accounting work was taken up,
but the legislature feared to go so far.
Now there is great demand that the
state provide inspectors to look into
the accounts of counties. The municipal
accounting system has been found 10
work well. tho Auditor Bleakley is en-
gagged in completely revising the blanks
and system. Mr.. Bleakley recommends
to the legislature that it permit him 10
print his report in banks in a sepa-
rate book from his main report. which
would be appreciated by those who
have use for the hank report. AS a
matter Of fact It would be still better
TO have an annual report printed on
banks and on insurance com panies.
