The considered very large and an effort was made to try a naw system this year and the promises to give the sounty a | er bill to pay this year than it had la n if the amount of drugs used is not increased s county will probably have a law suit over the bill for last and Dr. King, the late county physician, will be the defendant When the was elected short time ago it was ar doctor's succe nw discovered that a mem ber of the Board of County Commissioner: had been investigating the expenditures for the past year and had v of certain things that should be plained. At the meeting of the board which Dr. Lanyon was elected county physi cian presented A at county in the rned of the exis. ex at Commissioner Livesey ment showing that the year past had paid out #6125 for surgical instruments ordered by Dr. King. M. Live sey wanted these instruments turned over to Dr. Lanyon and made a request to that ef fect upon Dr. King. The late county physi cian was grossly insulted. He declared that he had nothing in the surgical instrument line that belonged to the county. Pressed for some report as to the disposition he had made of the o amount of such goods ordered rom the county drug con- tractor e asked to have a statement showing the list of the tivles, his was furnished by Commissionen Livesey, who exacted o promise from Dr King for the return of the \is prom ise was not kept and the commissioner wrote to the doctor asking that the list | urned according to promise and t ot be taken at once to account to the horities for the woods in question. ‘The unanswered and Commissioner Livesey the matter in the hands of Ass Attorney Troup, with instructions to @ settlement with King or commen suit against him for the value of the which had not been sunted for, Mr Troup hus written several letters to Dr. King about the matter, but been unable to get o reply f n him, and a suit will prob- ably be the result. Hard Work to I by him list 't Competition, But the sureical instrument fe of the county drug business is not the only one that appears queer on the face of the figures the county clerk's office and causes the com missione no end of troubled thought It seems almost impossible to get bids for fur nishing the county with drugs or contract that will not allow all abuses that cost the taxpayers very In addition to the stock of surgica ances bought for Dr. King last year, the county paid some very oig bills Tor drugs that no one sec able to explain. Under the old order of things the bils came in every month and the county paid them here was no way of teliing what had been received and what had not. The contruct which the cownty had with the local dr gist specificd but few of the items that were necded in the practice of the county phy sician, and the mostef the goods that were need rdingly charged up at regu- lar 1 do but pay the bills, Some Old Tricks Exposed. There has been trouble in the matter of furnishing drugs for the county for several years.
