ror the worst criticism that we must
make IA this connection. We have re-
Trained from ccndemItng officials
who deserve censure in many instan-
ces as the majority OF citizens and
tax payers seem TO be Indifferent to
trese matters. scarcely caring to read
or diseuss, excepl during a political
campaign, situation which the Re
publicans have not been slow to per
ceiye and take advantage Of We
refer to the failure and refusal Of the
territorial officials to carry into ef-
feet the law passed at the last ses-
sion Of the legislature providing for
the investment of the building lund
which was accumulating in the banks
and drawing a very low rate Of inter.
est. The first section Of that law is as
follows.
"The territorial treasurer, under
the advice and direction Of the gov
ernor, is hereby authorized and re-
1uired to invest the public building
fund now in the treasury and such
part Of said fund as may accumulate
in the next two years, in territorial
FIVE or six per cent interest bearing
warrants drawn against the general
fund OF the territory"
It is plain, straightforward act,
one of the very few laws passed in
the interest Of the tax payers, and
we should suppose the treasurer, gov
ernor, and attorney general, who are
required 20 invest the public building
fund would hasten to do SO. It is
said that Governor Barnes before
his retirement requested Treasurer
Thompson to comply withsthe law but
mp to this time nothing has been done.
There IS now something over $4,000

proximately, sl75.OOO When the au-
htorlties refuse to inveet this Amount

law. pretending that theslaw is 'un-
construable" and inoperative" It
simply means that 1t Is to the inter-
est Of the pet banks and certain Of
hcIals to ignore the law Deducting
the bonded indebtedness and war
rams that should be taken up by the
public building fund, the outstanding
indebtedness would be less than
$3.50 900, leaving out of consideration
the money that will come in from
taxes. And when this administration
proposes TO issue $500. 900 in bonds to
take up an Indebtedness which
should be less than s25OoO0. It pro
sumes too much on the Indifference
and the ignorance Of the people We
trust that the new territorial treasur-
err Mr.. Rambo, will prevent this graft
by doing his duty and do a little fin
ancierlng IN the interest Of the tax
payer.
