bank, any of the moneys Of the city, or
allow the same to pass out of his GUS
tody"
This opposite quotation clearly ex-
the people who adopted it. 1t amounts
to an expressed condemnation of the
practice of putting city money into
any bank or of ever allowing it to pass
from the custody of the Treasurer, ex-
cept upon warrant duly drawn upon
him. To emphasize this the same sec
ton Of the charter contains these very
significant words: LAS soon as possible
after the adoption of this charter, the
Board of Trustees SHALL provide
suitab vaults and safes for the use of
the Treasurer" To still further give
it also provided: TT shall be in the
power of the Board of Trustees, by or
dinance, at any time to require the City
Treasurer to devote his entire time to
the duties of his Office
This mandate of the charter that
there shall be provided vaults and safes
as may be necessary, comes with direct
force to the conscience of every Trus-
tee. 1t is true that there are the quail
flying words las soon as possible" But
is possible now; it has been possible at
any time in the past two years to have
provided the Treasurer with suitable
vault or safe. It has been possible and
easily practicable at any time to atleast
boxes, which are miniature vaults, in
which he could have kept the sum of
money that is constantly in the City
Treasury.
The outgoing Mayor some time ago
attempted, but ineffectively, to bring
the Trustees up to realization of their
duty in the premises, and advised them
officially to provide place for the safe
keeping of the city money. Now that
new board is about to take office the peo-
PIE demand that there shall be a change
OF policy, and that the spirit of the char
ter shall be complied with. The Record
Union will insist that this shall be
done. There is an important principle
involved and it must no longer suffer
violence by evasion.
