A motion to reject the resolution waslo'st by a decisive vote. Hut a motion to ttdopt the resolution wmh restated by a mi nority of about one. fourth of the meet Ull This was the only resolution perceptibly opposed In the voting. Next the County Assessor was aboU Utlfd with little discussion. It was also strongly voted that the comity of. fleers dlir un their clerk hire. The highway commission was dlsonsced at some length relative to, how thu nfiice was created, the ofllcer appointed and paid, It was developed in the discus-.. Ion that the highway commUsiouer is a part of the dolUr matching bchutue with the government and that the commissioner is paid $1200 pjr year, $400 by tho state and 5900 by the county. When the vote wae taken tho highway commissioner was abolished by nearly ununiinons voto. Thu lesolution lelittive to tho truant oillrur afforded infor nation to many In Hie meeting.

The ninth resolution was adopted hoping to head off this association graft at the source. The meeting appeared further dls &ati(I"d with thu dollar matching schemes with the government. There was something unexplained, but in creasingly distasteful as more of the dollar matching propositions were brought to light. Why should the government reach out iuto local affairs for administration and control? Tho tenth resolution wan adopted placing tho meeting against the whole dollar matching business.
