Under the old law it would have been several years before the valuation of Utah county reached a point where an auditor would come to the county under the law. When the law waaihanged placing property on a cash valuation, the valuation immediately doubled, and as a result a number of counties came In for an auditor without material In county business. The hasty action on the part of the board of commissioners was made necessary by the change In the calling of the Democratic .county convention, which was held at .Spanish Fork today. 61-2- 5 County Teachers .
