The law creating the Comptroller $ office
requires the Comptroller to audit the
books and accounts OF the county Ireas-
urer Receiver Of Taxes and Collectors or
Taxes, at least once in every month, and
report the result OF such audits to the
Levy Court Commissioners; so tar as we
can learn this has never been done by
any Comptroller Of this County. This
audit should be required, as the informa-
ton obtained from same would place be-
fore the Levy Court, at every regular
monthly meeting, a financial statement
showing the assets and liabilities OF the
County, which should, and no doubt
would, be a great help to the Levy Court
The books and accounts OF the Comp
troller, are, in our opinion, entirely insuIn-
cient to serve the purpose for which the
office was created, and II seems to US
that the office has always been liability
10 the County, but could very easily be
made. at a very small expense, very
valuable asset to the County.
We wish to say in conclusion, that, IN
our opinion, the system now in vogue In
the COmptroller's office, while II IS prac-
tlcaly the same system which has been IN
use since the office was established, 10
grossly Inadequate to meet the require
ments we assume were intended when
the office was created But we desire to
say also, however, that the system has
been somewhat improved by the present
incumbent, and we are OF the opinion
that It will be further improved during
the year, to such an extent that the ONCE
will be a credit to the Comptroller, and
will be the means Of efficiently safe
the finances OF the County.
Until Il does reach such a state OF efiici-
ency, we do not think the office will meet
the ends for which 1t was designed to
meet when 1t was created

The belief emit ertained in some quar-

made by German spies or. Chinese rev

the popular idea is that the crime was
the work of Japanese malcontents.
Count Okuma's escape which was
exceedingly narrow was undoubtedly
due to the extraordinary presence of
mind of his chauffeur. The driver
noticed a man suddenly emerge from
a dark alley between a toy shop and
a confectioner's. He was waving his
