On the joint appointment is open question. Moreover it is not clear that a new appointment is necessary.

It is said that the books are models of neatness and accuracy already, and may be further improved by such classification as will distinguish between the expenditure on different works.

This should satisfy all the requirements of Government Audit. This is high praise, and it hardly seems necessary to add to the number of appointments which must be made in the Department in order that the accounts, well and carefully kept by the Surveyor General, could readily be obtained from his assistant accountants.

As to how the separate Storekeeper is different from the system described by Brown must lead to great waste and to a very undesirable monopoly.
