Relieving Situation.

The big deficit which the county

this purpose. and already $500 has
been paid ont and there are now in
the hands OF the auditors bills aggre-
eating $1,000. This means a deficit
OF $500 already, and 1t is certain the
deficit will be considerably boosted
before the year is out.
Auditor Buhrer suggests that here
after medical testimony be given by
the county physicians
II am not finding fault about the
conditions as they now exist" Mr..
Buhrer stated II am merely calling
attention TO the conditions. and It is
for the prosecuting attorneys Office
and the recorders court to assist in
lettering things. In one case, recent
ly, there were six medical experts
engaged by the prosecution. There is
no set fee for these men. and there is
always controversy when the bills
come in. | suggest that the county
physicians always appear for the
prosecution In cases where expert
testimony Is required. notice that
former county physicians always ap.
pear as the experts for the defense as
soon as they leave the county ser.

for the people when they are in the
