The examiners’ report says of this office: “The records of the office were not completed later{ than December 1 and as a consequence we were unable to proceed with the exaniination later than that date.” In connection with the examination of the treasprer’s office the affairs of which were found to be in good shape, ¢he examiners say: “I especially call your attention to our statement showing the surety bonds given by the several banks to cover county deposits. You will note that in every case the amount of de- posit exceeds the security given. I have called the treasnrer’s attention to this and while I have tho greatest faith in the reliability and integrity of all the banks concerned,’I believe that it ts the duty of the treasurer to fol- low more closely the law which re- quires her to secure ample security fcr all moneys deposited with the banks.” The poll tax collections handled by iyle E.
