 THE TERRIToRY'S INTEREST," Territorial Treasurer Kirkland's books | show that during the year ending | June 30, 1908, the territory has made | the neat little sum of $7192.65, in | terest on monthly cash balances on deposit in the territorial banks | Again attention is called to the fact | that all this happens in Arizona | which is only territory and not | considered fit for statehood by a lot | of eastern states which, instead of up a little interest each | year, know so little about finances | that they are living on borrowed 1 money and paying interest for the | use of it, meanwhile, in some cases | standing off their state officers or paying them in paper that has to be l discounted in order to circulate.
