The recorder Is much cramped for
room In his office.
His offtco forco necessarily occu
pies much of tho available office
room, and dosk room for uso of the
public Is very scarce. This works a
decided Inconvenlonco Mi tho public,
nnd is n source of constant embnrass-
ment to tho recorder.
Tho cordent valut Is too small. It
Is tilled with books, many of which
they nro compelled to pile on the
floor, resulting in tho certain de
struction of theso Invaluable public
records.
If the public records of Jackson
county nre to be preserved from
mouldering and decay, some ndequato
nrranjeement will have to be made for
their bettor protection. This is es
peclally tho cns with tho city maps
It would bo possible to re-nrrango
the offices In the court houso at
Jacksonville, with very small expense,
nnd without making nny further ad
ditions to the building, by utilising
still further some court room spaco
und placing tho assessor up stairs
where ho would have a much better
offlco than ho now has, and thus
mako room for tho sheriff on that
sldo of the building down stairs. As
I have had considerable experience
with court honses, I will add a page
suggesting how the spneo In thn court
house could be made to serro all pur
jkcs of Jackson county for many
years, without any appreciable cost.
Tho recordor keeps his work up to
date, or pearly so .
Ho has been fortunate In (he se
lection of assistants, ooth of whom
ho has trained to a high dogreo of
efficiency. I think I am safe in say
ing that the recorder of Jackson
county and his two assistants, do as
much work ns four coplsts nrdlnar
lly perform.
The Comity Clerk' W, It. Coleman.

Tho county clerk has been keeping
his work un to date In good shape.
Tho circuit court throws a large
amount of business on tho clerk. The
probato court, the county court, npd
tho public generally keep his atten
tion fully engaged all tlm time.
In addition to theso duties, the
clerk has naturalization business, a
go-betweon the circuit court and tho
department of commerco and labor
He has a considerable volume of
scalp bounty business, a Inrgo vol
ume of election bustnoss and regis
trations tliorcfor consumes much
tlmo nnd labor. Ho has tho compu
tation of the levies on the tax rolls,
which with 15,000 or 10,000 differ
ent computations requires much
labor, and he has tho Issuance of
Game licenses, which lays a burden
on tho county for which there Is no
repayment. This Gamo llconso all
goes to tho state. It Is placed lu
tho hands of tho county clerks for
convenience, but It cosfs Jackson
county sevornl hundred dollars for
tho states' convenience, which Is not
right.
Tho bulk of this labor returns no
money to tho county, but tho law
Imposes it on tho clerk, and, t hero
fore, tho financial returns-of his of
flco uro not criterion to tho amount
of work accomplished In tho offlco.
Tho bunterv and anglers llccnsos
Issued during tho year amount to
16542.00 of which $5110 has boon
forwarded to tho state troatury, am
evidenced by bis receipts Nos. 15302.
18C27 and 23071. The balanru has
been deposited with the treasury and
rccelnt on file.
The county dork's scalp bounty
warrants Issued agree, according to
their stubbs, with the reports ueut to
tho stato treuHuror, and amount to
$342.00. Stato treasurer warrants
for $14.25 hnvo been recolvod and
deposited in tho treasury by the
county clerk, and $120,75 Is still due
from the state treasury.
I havo examined nnd compared
with tho warrant register tho list of
county warrants ordored cancelled by
tho county court on Bopiomucr m,
1012, and find that tho county clork
has correctly noted tho cancellation
thereof on his warrant register.
I have compared ull bills audited
by tho county court from July 1st,
1912, to January 1st, 1913, with tho
warrant register, and find all war
rants registered lu tho umountH uu

As soon as Sheriff Jones ascer
tained his accounts were short ho
Immediately procured tho utaount
from prlvato resources and deposited
It In tbo treasury on Juuuary 2 and
January 4, 1913.
I will stato that lu my opinion
thn bulk of theso delinquencies oc
curred prior to 1912.
On January 1, 1912, I had against
tbo sheriff $21, 090. pi, and ' theso
amounU wore doposltod between
January Bt 1912, and April 13, 1912.
There wore numerous tax collections
showing date of collection i numbor
pf mouths prior to January 1, 1912.
At tho tlmo tho monoy was do
posltod taxes for 1911 waro coming
In freely, and the sheriff had on
hands a. large sum of money from
1911 collections.
It bbonmu known that this short
age was evident Junuury 1, 1912, ns
soon an my report was puiillslind, nnd
consequently I enmu down to Jack
sonville lu Juno, J 0X2, voluntarily to
Investigate to tho first of July, nt
which tlmo tbu sheriff and trcusuror
both showed mo statements from
their banks showing the doposlt to
their favor July 1, 1912, Tho sheriff
showed mo bunk baluucos of $03,
943.49 cash and currency nnd chocku
of $2096. CC und two deposits dutod
June 28 and Juno 29, according to
the sheriff's doposlt book aggregate
lug $13,400, 49,-or a totul of $80,
099.03, as I had charged him on
July 1 with but $70,214.00 the over
plus being monoy un hand for which
receipts hud-not been written, I was
satisfied that ho actually hud thp
county's piouoy safely lu tbo banks
and trousury, I notice, howuvor, that
tho deposits were mudo July 2, which
In tho event tho money deposited was
drawn from tho banks Hint day
would dlmlnsh his bnlnuro on baud

I would auulu urge upon thn
sheriff tho Importance of eumplMim
with the letter of the Inw lu tanking
deposits which calls for all tuxes col
lected to bo doposltod every week
It would be better to deposit every
day, and for tho sheriff to keep nit
nccurale dally cash book or a cash
book, In addition to his tu collection
register, which Is a cumbersome vol
ume und Impossible to bo written as
rapidly ns tuxes tiro collected.
In order to deposit dully collec
tions (ho tiensurer will have to open
a special "sheriff's dully deposit" ac
count, which wilt nut he dlsrlhuUid tu
his funds, but tbo distribution there
of will follow his. sheriff's requisi
tions for receipts from thn uiiiuhur
Moino lux collodions register, und the
money will then bo transferred by
the trnnstirnr from thu "sheriff's
dally deposit" account to Dm Mvcrnl
funds indicated upon tlm requisition
1 would also recommend that the
Incoming sheriff Keep his record of
taxes In numerical older on his lax
collection nutlster. All other room
tluTi where I examined In Oregon do
this, nnd It simplifies the record erv
much. This Is, of com so, un u luoxe
leaf tax receipt, which Is not num.
bered until It Is ready In fllo away.
