Report of the treasurer read, as follows:
OFFICE OF THE TREASURER BOARD OF
EDUCATION, ST. PAUL, July ., 1888. J
To the President and Members CT the
Board of Education st. Paul.
GENTLEMEN: You will find attached to
the following my annual report showing
the receipts and disbursements of this Office
from June 80, 1882, to July l, 1888.
The fiscal year of the Board should be
changedso as to end June 30 of each year.
so that the June tax settlement can be dis
tributed, the teachers paid for the balance
of the school year, and in this way the
financial transactions of each year will
show for themselves.
The floating debt certificates of indebt-
edness) issued daring the last three or four
years have almost all been redeemed and
paid up, and the finances eff the Board are
vastly improved and in excellent condi-
ton.
It will be seen that the sums of money
handled exceed in the aggregate during
the year just passed the sum total used by
the city for all purposes but a few years
ago.
The interest on deposits received last
year on the Treasurer's bank deposits
amount to S505.O7 as you find by the
report.
It has been repeatedly urged that in des-
ignatiDg the depository the Board should
take account of such banks as would pledge
or condition themselves to furnish money
for temporary loans whenever the Board
requires 1t, and that this should be a part
of the condition cfawarding the deposits; so
long as new demands are continually made
for new school facilities, it Will take large
sums Of money to meet the increased de
mands. This matter should be considered
by the Board, especially as the depository
for the present year should be designated
without delay.
Ths law requires the Treasurer to report
and show the balances on hand and where
deposited al the end of each month. If the
pay days fer the teachers are fixed on the
last days of the month, the Treasurer can
not do this, but is hindered by floating
orders being presented. 1 would suggest
that pay day should be regularly fixed on
the first or second day of each month, ex-
cepting as the end of the school term,
when the payments should be made before
the 25th of the month, to allow time for
closing the books.
The vouchers accompanying this report
are in my vault ready for examination by
your honorable body, which I trust will be
at an early day.
Thanking you for the uniform kindness
with which your honorable body has treat
ed ms during the past year, and hoping
you will find my request reasonable,
l remain, yours very respectfully,
GEORGE REFS,
Treasurer Board of Education.
