The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1904-04-20

takes the autographs of the city's
creditors. This rs cent item had been
standing on the books for several
years.
There are numerous small accounts
standing on the books in favor of city
merchants. No doubt some of them
are 50 old that the merchants have
forgotten all about them, and would
never call for their money. This
goes to prove that some merchants
have a defective system of bookkeep-
ing, which allows credit items to slip
through this way
A list was made today of all the
warrants on the city books from 1899
to the beginning of the present year
which have not been receioted for on
the books. OF course it may be that
in a few instances, the money has
been actually paid, but through some
oversight, has not been receiDted for.
But in most cases. the lack of the
creditors autograph is pretty certain
proof that the money is still due. The
following list viii perhaps result in a
general clean I'D of a lot of the old
unpaid city warrants:
