Attorney General Sam Jones his
assistant counsel II. Riddell and E.
I. Wells and L. S. Dixen counsel
assigned by Governor Cooper to
assist the attorney general, have made
their reportto the Governor in relation
to the charges made against certain
contractors and Secretary of State
Rice. The report exhonorates Mr..
Rice and shows that he has done his
duty, and is guilty of no wrong IN
the discharge of his duties. In the
report we find the following:
No suits will be or can be brought
on account of these transactions,
against either Messers. Weber Il Gra-
ham, Messers. Collier t& Cleaveland,
Nessrs. Lawrence S Co, Hon. James
Rice, or any State officer, for the
plain and simple reason that not a
dollar has been drawn out of the
public treasury by any person on ac-
count thereof.
Warrants have been issued to the
above named contractors for the
amounts of theirrespective claims, but
these warrants have never been paid.
This fact appears in the answer OF
Hon. W. II. Brisbane, State treas
urer, to your exeellenoy, IN the follow
ing language:
| "The above warrants were all
drawn against appropriation funds,
none of which have been paid, as all
State warrants drawn against appro.
priations run about two years before
being called for payment. "This also
appears from recent inspection of
the treasurer books.
State warrants are not negotiable,
and consequently the State may inter
pose its defences or objections to
| them In whosesoever hands the
same may be. Hence all that is re-
| quired to be done to absolutely pro-
tect the State from any loss by rea'
son of any overcharge or fraud by
| the contractors, ls for the treasurer
to refuse payment of the warrants
issued to the above parties, and there
by compel mandamus proceeding
by the holder, and in this proceeding
the State may interpose its defenses
The report shows the state has not
been robbed yet, and if there is any
danger of robbery it can be pre-
vented by the state treasurer. The
more the public becomes acquainted
with the fuss that has been made in
this matter, the more they become
convinced it is all a political scheme
to down somebody.

We are loosing what little faith
We have in the honesty of independ-
ent papers. We have in the past in
dulged in the idea, that it would be
pleasure to publish an independent
Journal, bound to no faith except the
right as twas presented from day
to day. But the more we know of
such papers the more we are led 10
believe they are Independent for the
money there is in 1t. We know of
three independent papers published
by rank democrats, and perhaps an
investigation would prove a majori-
ty of the publishers of independent
papers to be democrats.
