Location of Bridge

Some person with more interest
in politics than the welfare of Bon
ners Ferry has circulated the report
that State Auditor Taylor was work
ing tn have the bridge located below
the s. 1. Ry. bridge, because he
owns tract of land near that point.
Mr.. Taylor asks the HERALD to say
for him that he has no personal
interest in the location Of the bridge
He does not believe that the loca-
ton will affect any real estate that
he owns, whether business property
on Main Street, some twenty resi-
dence lots east of Main street, OF
the tract of land referred to on the
west. He does believe that the
bridge will be great advantage to
all generally, and that all should
act in harmony in reference to the
matter, without trying to inject
sel6shness or politics into the sub
ject. The commissioners are com
petent and fair minded men, anC
will give all square deal if lef
alone.

$500 PER DAY
Is the Interest on the States Money
Gov. Brady with Other Officials
Keeping Careful Accounts.

The handling of state money hav-
ing been important issue in the last
campaign, the following from the
Boise Statesman of May l will be
read with interest:
The legal rate of interest on de-
posts of state money will be 81 per
cent for the coming year as estab-
lished by the depository board at a
meeting Yesterday morning, The
rate is identical with that of last
year and was adopted by unami-
nous action. Governor Brady, At
torney General McDougall, Secre-
tary of State Lansdon and State
Treasurer Hastings we're present
and devoted considerable time to the
discussion of the states finances, a
subject which in times past none
have known much about except the
official directly in charge.
Governor Brady is taking an
active interest in what is going on
in the treasurer's Office and it il
understood he has called for de.
tailed report on affairs. Attorney
General McDougall is authority fol
I the statement that collection &C
counts" have been abandoned so fal
rs the treasurer's Office is concerned
since the adjournmrnt Of the legis
lature. In any event an edict hal
gone forth from the chief executive
and if such transactions appear in
the future the guilty official will b
called upon for an accounting.
AUDITOR DEMANDS Cory
Auditor Taylor's contention Il
that all state officials handling
moneys and receiving fees must no
only report to the state treasures
daily, or when they have more thar
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1909-05-08

the limited amount of money on
hand, but must also make out these
reports in duplicate, one copy to be
filed in his Office. Members Of the
land board and other state officers
have not so construed the law, but
have announced their willingness
to file duplicate statements in the
future. This practice will give the
state auditor . check on the treas
urer's Office independent of the reg
ular monthly and quarterly re-
ports.
LANspoN OBEyING THE Law
Secretary of State Lansdon was
one Of the first to comply with the
provisions Of the law requiring funds
to be deposited daily and he has
been observing it's provisions relig-
iously. Although number of the
departments have not been report
ing to the auditor, with one or two
exceptions all have been making
the deposits with the treasurer
whenever funds were on hand. The
state fish and game department is
the most important branch OF the
state government which has yet to
comply with this new regulation.
INrEREsr Account GROWING
The states interest account is
growing al rapid rate. The inter
est on state deposits amounted to
$34O7 during the month of April, q
daily interest of $113.67. The
amount of interest the state has de.
rived from the dependencies since
January /, four months, is $10,4
an average daily rate of $50 pei
day.
In the 1O6 repositories Of the stats
there is now on deposit 81, 10000
