CAMPBELL
IS SILENT.
Officials Not Worried
Over the Bond
Sale.

| Nothing has been heard from Treas
| Lrer Campbell with reference to the
| bond sale. but there is no worry in Of
fetal circles on that account. Mr..
| Campbell is probably waiting the ar
| rival in New York of the certified
| copies of the proceedings of the two
| houses of the last Legislature, for
which he sent on here after his ar
rival on the mainland.
The sale of seven hundred thousand
dollars or more of bonds is rather
large transaction, and like all transac-
tions where the passage of large sums
of money is involved, there is a strict
ness in compliance with the formali-
ties. For instance, the firm of Dillon
& Hubbard of New York has been ask
ed to give it's opinion on the legality
of the proposed bond issue. Now, Dill
lon & Hubbard is the largest firm of
bond lawyers in the United States.
Naturally, they would not give an
opinion until the members of the firm
had satisfied themselves on all points,
officially, that the requirements of the
law in the passage of the bill author
izing the issue had been complied with.
To this end they would want a Ger
titled copy of the proceedings of both
houses of the Legislature, showing that
the bond bill had passed three read
ings in due form on three different |
days.
Secretary Atkinson, it is true, took |
copies of the Senate and House Jour |
nails with him to New York, but it !
might very well happen that these
copies had not been properly certified. |
AS to the stories that the hitch is
about the issue being less than that
by the Legislature, Of
course there is nothing in that. When
Governor Carter was secretary he went
on to New York and sold one mill
lion dollars worth of bonds under an
act of the Legislature authorizing an
issue of 000 The point was
not raised then, and has no more rea-
son to be raised now. The Legislature
can not compel the Territory to bor-
row any fixed amount
