' ANSWER OF COMMISSIONERS Denial ( lint tin- Auditor IK Any 1'art of ( lie County ricrk'H Ut- llcc Fort't'i The answer of the Hoard of County Com missioners In the Injunction proceedings In stituted by County Clerk Havcrly has Just been llled. It Is a voluminous document , presenting the position of the majority of the board In exhaustive detail and occupying n , wad of typewritten sheets half an Inch thick In telling the court why the appoint ment of clerks In the "auditor's" depart ment should be the exclusive prerogative of whatever clement happens to dominate In the board. The answer explicitly denies thnt the audi tor Is any part or parcel of the olllce force of the county clerk. It represents that the duties devolving on the commissioners arc so arduous nnd exacting thnt they have no time In which to check up quarterly reports , claims or the books and accounts of county ofllccrs , Consequently , It Is necessary tn employ expert accountants to attend to that clns of work. The history of previous ap pointments Is recited at length to show that the board has heretofore enjoyed the privi lege of dictating them , and It Is contended that any effort on the part of the county clerk to have anything to say nt this time Is a usurpation of the powers of the board. It Is denied that the services of John II. Tnto hnvo been and nre satisfactory , as re lated In the application for the Injunction , nnd It Is also positively denied that the re cent appointments are dictated by any po litical interest. 1'lre 111 .IcivlHli HonxHiolil.
