County Auditors Close ♦ Convention at Indianapolis.

After being instructed in the state laws governing the duties of their offices, the county auditors closed the 4hird annual atate meeting of the County Auditors’ Association. The auditors told of the difficulty encountered in keeping the school $ funds of the separate congressional townships segregated as the old law requires and a movement was set on foot to hear on congress to repeal the old law and pass a new one whereby the funds can be merged in the respective counties and the work of the auditors thereby greatly simplified. President Thomas Nugent appointed the following auditors as a committee to lay the proposition before Indiana representatives in congress: Albert Salim, Marion county, chairman; W. T. Richards, Madison county, and Auditor Nafzger, Wabash county. On a motion of Albert Sahm the association re-elected the present officers for the ensuing year: Thomas Nugent, Daviess county, president; William T, Richards, Madison county, vice-president, and Albert F. Zearing, of Jndlanftpolis, secretary-treas-urer.
