WINGED that their original position, that
the constitution intended all counties
should be put on a cash basis was sus-
tanned by the court. however, and this
would mean the invalidating of some
thing over $4,000 in warrants.
When asked what the future course
of the board would be Commissioners
Hall thought the proper steps would
be for the legislature to validate the
illegally issued warrants and allow the
board to float the amount by issuing
bonds.
And I want to state in most positive
terms continued Mr.. Hall" that the
board never at any time harbored an
intention of repudiating the warrants
We simply want to get the county on
cash basis. This was impossible under
the old boards construction of the law.
1T simply means this: If the county
can be put on a cash baSis-and there
is no obstacle if the outstanding war
rants are funded-the taxpayers will be
saved $4,000 annually that is now be-
ing paid to brokers, the holders of
warrants and the men who do not want
the county on a cash basis 1t is true
that people sometimes defeat a propo-
sition to bond floating Indebtedness.
If they should do so in this instance IL
would mean that the county would be
perpetually obliged to pay s per cent
interest on warrants when the same
could be bonded for or 5 per cent
and the county could never get on
cash basis unless the levy was raised
sufficiently TO wipe out the debt
RAWLINS CONCURS.
Commissioner Rawlins concurred in
everything Mr.. Hall said and believed
that the proper course would be for
the members or the legislature from the
counties affected by the supreme
courts decision to get together and
validate the issue and then permit the
commissioners to issue bonds, subject
of course to vote of the people.
1t is understood that Weber and sew
eral other counties are affected by the
decision.

DiugleY Law Xindicated d.

The Dingley law is more than filing
the predictions which were made by
its advocates. IL was not claimed bv
those who were most earnest in its sup
port that the law would produce, dur
ing the first few months of its opera
tion, an amount equivalent to that
which was raised by The Wilson law
during the corresponding period of
any year during which the W ilson law
was on the statute books. The graft
tcatiOn that the treasury officials felt,
therefore, when the otfic al statement
showed that The customs receipts of
August 3lst OF this year were in excess
of those of August 3!sJ of last year was
very great. The receipts from GUS
toms on August 81, 1886, were 1910, I37 =
80, while the receipts of August 81,
1897, were 1888. 5000, q gain of $685.
1882.
