County Commissioners debate over clerk hire and treasury
Retiring County Treasurer W M Smith presented a two year financial report to the County Commissioners. The books were found correct and in good shape. A dispute centers on a $240 clerk hire payment for Miss McDonald, authorized by Smith but disallowed by the board. The board offered a compromise of $40. Smith declined. Attorneys warned costs would rise if sued, and the matter may be resolved without further trouble as funds were turned over to the successor treasurer Goodykoontz.

Other notes recount Taylor’s shortage and bonds, plus gold export and local ties to South Dakota investments through Taylor.
