The badge is in the form of star surmounted by richly enameled circle bearing the in scription Health Officer, Nome, IoI6."

 It looked for a time yesterday that the breakup had landed in Nome with a jump and the sud- den accession of warm weather sent the snow flying at most amazing rate. In the lower sec tion of town the ground com menced to appear in several places and the huge drifts on back streets sunk with a rapid ity that would startle any one but the prosaic sourdough. Three or four days more of such weather and Nome will shed its winter overcoat for sure.
 As IS usual about this time of the year, both the housewife and the business man are allowing their thoughts to finger on the necessity for cleaning up and q vast deal of polishing and fur bishing is already under way.

As usual about this time in the spring, the Valdez -Sitka cable has commenced to act up. A re- port from Valdez at goo this morning notified all relays that the cable was, to quote the mes sage, Interrupted" which means that the dinged old thing is bust ed again and all business subject to delays. As a conseouence the telegraphic news in today's issue is largely made up of matter re- ceived too late for publication yesterday.

DISMISSAL OF SUIT AFFIRMED.
D. c. Court of Appeals Rules Against
H N. Johnson and Others.

The District Court of Appeals in an
opinion by Mir. Justice Robb today
affirmed the decree of the District Su-
preme Court which dismissed a bill by
H. n. johnson and other descendants of
slaves against Secretary McAdoo OF the
Treasury Department. The plaintiff
sought to establish a lien of s6S,0I2,-
3SS.99 against the United States Treas
ury for internal revenue tax collected
on cotton during the years 1859 to 1863.
The plaintiffs alleged that they and
their ancestors at that time were sub
ject to system of involuntary servi-
tude" in the southern states, and that
as result of such servitude many
million bales of cotton were produced.
Between the years 1862 and 1868 the
money sought to be secured was paid
into the Treasury as revenue tax, it
is stated
The appellae court points out that
Secretary McAdoo is only the custodian
OF the fund, and that the real defendant
is the United States, which may not
be sued without its consent

The Hired Man said the other day,
"The most beautiful woman in Cald-
we'll is not worth shucks to the COM
monwealth, etc ETC." Now some body
wants to know how man can write
such an expression and get away with
it. l had already thought of that very
query since seeing the item in print.
It is easy enough though, since l have
come to think about it. The husband
who would want to get after me for
the last part of the sentence would
first have to convict me of saying his
wife is the most beautiful woman in
town, and this conviction would take
off a good deal of the wire edge on
the remainder of the sentence. The
sentence works automatically. There
are about thirty women in town who
are running one another a very close
race for the most beautiful place,
but just one is the most beautiful, of
course, and the other twenty-nine are
worth something in proportion to the
way they try to serve distressed
worthy sister.

We find that the above agree with
the records of the Auditor anC
Treasurer and that the Moneys of
the County is properly distributed
among the banks in proportion to
the securities held.
We suggest that your Board con-
suit with your attorney for the pur-
pose of ascertaining whether the
above listed securities meet the re-
quirements of Sections 2Oi3, IA, Is
16, II, and IS of the Revised code.
We might add that the Surety Bonds
are carried on the books at 80 per
cent of face and the other securities
at 100 per cent of face.
We desire to can your attention
to a practice which has been fol-
lowed for years in this County of
charging the Current Expense Fund
with all warrants which have been
issued in rebating taxes eroneously
collected for any reason. The var
ious amounts refunded should be
charged up against the accounts
which were given credit when the
taxes We're originally paid. Other
wise, the local District receives
money which afterwards refunded
and the county has to pay for it.
This works an injustice to any tax
payer who lives in any other dis
trict than that which was originally
credited with this amount.
We should suggest that your
Board pay a visit to the various of
fices in the Court House in order
to ascertain if the books and papers
are carefully and accessibly filed.
We believe that it is q good plan
and also that it is the Auditors duty
TO verify the footings and extensions
of all bills presented to the county
for payment prior to the time that
the board of County commissioners
meet to take action on the same.
The auditor could have a rubber
stamp made certifying to the fact
that this has been done. This would
relieve the County Commissioners of
a great deal of routine work, and
would place the responsibility for
the correctness of the bills upon the
Auditors office.
The county Auditor should check
the books of the Probate Judge,
Sheriff, Assessor, Treasurer, Coun-
ty Schools and Tax Collector each

money was refunded to the County
in the summer of 1915 after we had
called the attention of the present
Board of County commissioners to
the facts in the case.
The second case was Warrant No
500 issued January t2, 1909 for SIS
to Mary A. Chase. This was paid
a second time by warrant drawn
April II, 1909 for So No. 1859.
The case was the Jurefs Ger
tificate of Service issued by H. N
Maxey, acting Coroner, in favor of
C. w. Cooper, August &c, 1906, No. g
This certificate was duplicated by
the same official in favor of the
same party for the same amount,
and both have been paid. These
two certificates were issued to COW
er the inquest over the body of a
party named Robinson.
The next case is that of warrant
drawn for $40 in favor of A. w. Nc
Neal for livery in the Spring Of 1909
The bill was rendered amounting to
$50 the warrant was drawn and paid
for $40.
The next case covers warrants
Nos. fi7i-72-73-74 issued on the goth
day of January, 1907, amounting to
S676.65, payable to the Parma State
Bank for assigned accounts. These
accounts as rendered equa | the
amounts of the warrants
drawn on the 18th day of Jan
uary, 1907, for $3.50, payable orig
inally to H. s. Stockton, and after
wards changed to read Parma State
Bank If we are correct in our
theory, this amount has been paid
twice.
If the affairs of private business
concern were run as loosely as ap-
parently this part of the Commits
sioners' work has been done, that
firm would go into bankruptcy in
one year.
We desire to call your attention to
the apparent lack of uniform
charges for instruments recorded
during the eight years which our
audit covers. There are many cas-
es where the fee charged was ap-
parently estimated by guessing the
amount, and in nearly every case
the amount so charged was less than
it should have been.
