C0UNTY'S BONDS
PREMIUM BILL IS
$1,000 FOR YEAR

The premium which The county is
required 10 pay on the bonds of lis
various officers would be sufficient
TO pay the salary of one official for
Year. The county's bill in this one
item for the protection of taxpayers
will amount 10 about $500 annually.
This was the approximation made
by attaches of The clerks office to-
day in figuring up The bonds which
will be provided by the officers who
assume governmental posts on Janu
AIRY l. The total amount represented
by these bonds is about 100000.
All officials are required to fur-
nish bonds fifteen days before they
assume office, but the premiums are
paid from The county treasury. The
bonds and their amounts are:
Supervisors, $4,000 each; surveyor,
$500; assessor. $4,000; recorder, 50,
900; coroner $500; superinte endent of
