COUNTY AUDITORS

The annual report of the county
auditor has been issued and gives en-
tended information of what has been
done with the taxpayers money during
the past year. according to the report
the county's Indebtedness was reduc-
ed $8O,481.7S.
The warrants outstanding against
the road districts and ditch districts
which is not a general county indebt-
edness were reduced from $454,9S6.7S
in 1912 to $372,574.4S in 1913, re-
duction OF $S2.412,3O for the year.
Bond Debt Cut.
The county warrant and bond in
debtedness was reduced from $577.-
1899 in 1912 to $5O7,S74.93 in 1913, a
reduction OF $69,25S.96 for the year.
This Indebtedness is against the gen
eral county funds.
The two departments of the supe-
rior court cost the taxpayers $6,396.62
more last year than the year before.
In 1912 the cost of the court work was
3,562O6 and in 1913 the cost was
$19,95S.68. The biggest increase in
this Office was in fees to jurors, this
increase alone amounting to 1881.
The cost of the grand jury session
prior to January l, 1914, is included in
this expense.
County Attorney Frank w. BiXby S
expense increased from $5,973.55 in
1912 to $6,537.S1 in 1913. an increase of
$564.26. One item for $675 for serv-
ices rendered by Attorney Virgil Per.
niger before the grand jury as assis'
tant prosecutor, is included in the eX
pense for 1912.
A total of $3,14S was paid out in
mothers pensions last year This en-
pense will be more than double this
sum this year.
The miscellaneous expenses of the
county for last year were $6.611.OS, as
compared to $11,099.57 for 1912, show
ing a reduction of $44SS.39.
The total current expenses amount
ed to $135,3O4.95 in 1912. and $122, ,233,
sc in 1913, reduction for last year
of $13,071.09. "
The actual expenses of operating the
county government for the year 1915
is placed by the auditor at $1S7, 1873
as compared to $225,577.61. This big
decrease in the expense of running the
county government is party explained
by the fact that in 1912 $S0,561 was
spent for road and bridge work and
ony $6S,99731 in 1913.
| The total receipts from all sources
for the year 1913, as shown by the
treasurers report, were $1,169, 133.9 81
and the total disbursements were 81,
! 100, O,6S7.43.
