NOT so EASY.
An urmOuntabIe Obstacle to the
Spending of The Cholera Fund

An ms urmOuntabIe Obstacle to tn .
Spending of the Cholera Fund
There is a new obstacle in the way of
tn e payment of the cholera fund to the
state board of health. which has evil
DENLY been overlooked The cholera
protection law is published on page 50 of
the laws of 1898, and one of its provi-
sions is as follows:
81 he warrant or warrants for the pay
ment Of expenses incurred as herein pro-
vided, shall be drawn only upon the GER
tificate of the president and secretary of
the state board Of health, recommended
by the Judge Of the district whose terri
tory is threatened or affected. and ap-
proved by the governor of the state
1t will be seen from the above that it
is no easy matter for the state board of
health to get possession Of the $4,000
placed at its disposal by the executive
council The governor can, if he is in
earnest, by taking advantage of the pro-
visions of the law, prevent the squander-
ing of the money.
