BILL AGAINST UNCLE SAM.

Auditor Aver. Governor Russell and
other State officials were busy yester-
day figuring out the amount due by the
United States government to the State
of North Carolina for expenses incurred
in calling ont and mobilizing the North
Carolina troops. One little reminder of
the governments indebtedness to the
State has heretofore been rendered. but
it was respectfully returned with the
statement that the amount was unau-
thorized This was bill for $3.50. for
services rendered by Adjutant Gen
eral Cowles, in mobilizing the troops.
This official receives only $500 year
salary from the State and when his ser
vices were asked for in mobilizing the
volunteers the understanding was that he
would be paid but the bill was returned
all the same. Now Governor Russell
has submitted bill with vouchers duly
audited for expenses incurred-tele-
grams, services of the Adjutant General
and other expenditures amounting to a
little more than $500. This bin was SEPT
to Washington yesterday and it remains
to be seen whether or not it will be al
lowed.
