FIGURE DEFICIT
FOR TERRITORY
Consolidation of Offices, REM
edy Attributed to the
Governor.

The exact financial condition of the
Territorial government is shown in a
summary statement that was given out
yesterday by Governor Frear and the
final figures disclose the interesting
fact that there viii be a deficit of ex-
actly 500, S23.53 to be presented to the
consideration of the approaching Leg
islature. All of the Territorial officials
whose functions connect them with the
responsibilities of government finance
have worked diligently over the
figures that came within their province
and the issuance of the Governor S
statement yesterday shows. the results.
Although the deficit of approximate
ly $4,000 does not look particularly
well on paper the fact that the figure
is not materially larger proves that
the subtleties of higher public finance
have been well applied by the execu-
tive officers of the Territory.
The deficit figure has been sealed
down materially from the amount that
was first calculated. The county IL
cense question played an important
part in the figures, it being estimated
that there would be deficit of $780,.
1929 at June 3Qth of 1909 if the H.
eense fees did not have to be turned
over to the county governments. Should
it be decided that the counties were
to get only one-half of the amounts
collected through license then it was
believed that the deficit would total
1886. 5000.

Question Of License.

The question as to whether or not
counties should receive one half of the
license fees was then passed over to the
Legislature and after that body of
lawmakers had given their Endorsement
to the bill it became law after be-
ing carried to the Supreme Court on a
question of validity by the Governor.
As Governor Frear stated yesterday,
the last Legislature began business
with $4,000 balance for the present
fiscal period. By policy of retrench-
ment, the government has saved about
$4,000 of this amount which has
brought the deficit down to approx
mately $4,000. "After I had taken
