shown in the report published In last
evenings REFLECTOR, about $92 900
In the vaults and It was considered
advisable for the county to get some
return for the use of the money instead
Of allowing the hard cash to lie piled
up in the iron walls. The statutes
allow commissioners to select banks OF
the county for repositories upon salts
factory bonds being furnished and not
over $50 600 to be deposited in one
bank at any time. The commissioners
having had proper bonds fled by Abb
lene National Bank, the Citizens Bank
and the bank vf Thomas Kirby of this
city design tted the three banks deposit
tories for the county. The banks pay
the county p per cent interest on
daily balances, which interest accrues
to the benefit of the county funds and
as there is seldom less than $50, 600 on
hand it means an annual interest of
over $1,000. The county treasurer will
after the railing goes into effect, there
