The ShelbyvIle Democrat, speaking of
the law requiring certain township officers
to publish annual statements, says: This
law should not only remain in force, but
should be amended so as to require all
state officers who handle public funds to
publish annual statements of their receipts
and disbursements in one or two news
papers in each county in the state. The
reports of these officers as now published
are not seen by one in thousand of the
tax payers of the state. CONSEQUENTLY the
people who furnish the money know moth
ing of the extravagant and wasteful man
ner in which it is squandered.
