money To the state. Inc other TWO

see no reason why this debt should
not be paid. Elghty.six thousand dol

purpose will be taken from the funds
that came into the possession Of the

argued that the state has the right to
pay this amount to the Denver clear

came necessary through the lack of
appropriation on the part of the Lcgis-
lature for the maintenance OF the state
