The article details a heated dispute over Samuel J. Wright’s county auditor fees, the board’s cut to 1700, an appeal to the circuit court, and Grover A. Biderman’s ruling that most items are governed by fixed ten cent per word or per hundred word fees. It also critiques current expenditures and contrasts Republican and Democratic spending over four years.
