organic or statute laws, or for contingent
expense, and there shall remain any portion
OF 1t unexpended at the end of the wear for
which such specific appropriation was made,
after all legal claims against it for said wear
shall have been paid. then it shall be the dutv
OF the Auditor of Public Accounts to cancel
any such balance Of appropriation, and
each succeeding year he shall open a new
account tor the appropriation which NAV
De made for that particular year, without
carrying forward any unexpended balance
OF appropriation made for any previous

oeOt OF the State. principal and interest.
