The former being a typewriter has been
paid at the rate of $ 600 per annum, while the latter was willing to be attached to the office temporarily without salary.
These two clerks have been continuously
employed for the last 10 months and am of opinion that it will not be possible in the future to dispense with the ser- vices of at any rate one additional clerk on account of the increase in work due to the New Territory.

the same incremental salary as the other two clerks mentioned
above
