Invent iifutliKr County A flu Irs.
On the retirement of x sheriff Sloan
from oluc vousiderable trouble wss bad by
the county lu cBi-ctiug Mttleuieut ol bis of
ficial accoiin's It wa supposod to hav
bn all detluitely settled at the July term
of coart, when Mr. Sloan paid tbe couuty
c3JO to correct errors made iu the addition
of tht delinquent list turued over to his
successor. Kiuce that (nrlhsr errors were
(ouud, aud upon Mr Sloan being called upon
to explain, be asked that the c-mrt appoint
ac-otintaiiU to Investigate and report upon
the tlnaiicial coudiilou ol Ibe otUces of shei
lu, clerk aud treasurer during bis liicum
bency as sheriff. The court granted tha re
quest aud appointed Meitars Sherwood Utlrr,
W. Osburu. W. T. Pert, and added L
Hilyeu as attorney to represent the counlv
These geutleuien commenced the work Fri
day morning and will continue from day
day uutil the work is fluished, sitting from
8 . in. to 12 iu. each day.
Tbe difficulty iu tbe settlement with Mr.
Sloan is occasioned by sheriff's assessments
and the taxes collected thereon, n bile
might be considered proper to await lb
report of tbe oommittov, there bas been so
much rumor about the matter thst we give
tbe figures ss they show on th face of the
books. In tbe year 13ml ex-Sheriff Sloan
assessed taxes to the amount of $'.179, am1
was charged with but $119.50. In 18S7
amount assessed, $1,372, charged wilb
r(J.3,. In 1888, assessed $l'JO0, charged
wilh $1,2(17.05. In 18K9 assessed Sl.o'.'O,
with no charge agaiust hiin. Total amonut
assessed, $VJU. Tob.il amount charged
I'J.aTXSO: balance unreported, f ti.ud7.ao
It is stated that Mr. Sloau should have
credit for about $2200 (or taxes sworn oft
and corrections made on the roll with which
he has not beou credited.
Th committee will undoubtedly straighten
out the affairs of the otlic and give th public
an explicit statement 1 he least that can Im
said about th conduct of th otKce is that it
has been sadly incouqietent.
