ports that he has called the atten-
ton of district attorneys to many ir-

deputy to assist the treasurer in
his work But the public examiner

urer did not name any such deputy,
instead drawing the salary of 5000 for
himself. This is but one of the ir-
regularities the examiner says have
existed in the county. and to which
he has called the attention of the dis
trict attorney. Some counties where

ties exist have taken no action to
