BENJAMIN Bunker.

The Standing Committee on Accounts, to
which was referred the bill of Benjamin Bun
ker, for services as telegraph operator and
Pension Agent from January lst to February
10, 1880, report that the same be disallow ed
because
lst. The State never employed him as
telegraph operator. and if he did work in that
capacity it should he paid for by those who
employed him and not by the State.
I'd. II appears from the records of the late
Governor and Council that April -, 1879,
the Committee on State Beneficiaries was
authorized to employ some person to act as
State Pension Agent, at an expense not to ex
ceed seven hundred dollars. On the same
day the Committee reported recommending
that some person be given the control Of the
Pension Department, but do not say whom
they had employed. if anyone. nor is there
any record evidence of any further proceed
ing in the matter.
But it does appear that after Mr..
Bunker began to discharge the duties of this
office, and that he remained in and about the
office until January eth, 1880. when those
who appointed him. if he had any appoint
ment, went out of office. II appears from
the records that Mr.. Bunker drew the seven
hundred dollars, which would pay him, if hc
was employed, and if he worked to January
9Th.
Your Committee find upon inquiries at the
Department, that Mr.. Bunker performed
little il any labor in the office, after January
1th, and that he drew S3i.92 in postage
stamps January ), 1880, for which the State
has paid and that he left but so cts. in stamps
in the office when he went ont. The present
Agent who succeeded Mr.. Bunker, in
forms your Committee that those stamps were
not needed and could not have been used in
the office for public purposes.
Mr. Bunker, never having appeared before
YOUR Committee, though requested to do 50,
to make explanation, your Committee feel it
their duty to report that the State, neither in
law or equity. should be called on to pay this
bill or any part of it.

Of an account. of what the records Of the

transactions between the claimants and the

BY this account II appears that the claim
ants have received from the State, on sc-
count OF public printing. for III, year 1872
the sum of $40, 10, which covers and full

done by them, properly coming within the

lowing that sum the accounts balance.
On examining this bill of June 26th. it will
be seen that that item is for printing what is
known as "Abstracts" of the Secretary Of the
Maine Board Of Agriculture.
The Legislature OF 1879, BY an act ap-
proved March, t, 1879, repealed all laws
authorizing the making or publishing such a
