ABOLISH IRtASURERS,
SAYS THE GOVERNOR.
Claims that Depository System VIII
Save Much Money.

In a short addition to his message
yesterday Gov. Noel recommends that
the office of State, county and mimic
ipal treasurers be abolished by con-
stitutional amendment, and the sug-
gestion seems to have been very ia
vorabiy received, it being shown THAI
more than 100000 would thus be saved
to the tax payers.
Since the State repositories were es-
tablished, there is certainly no nee
essity for State treasurer, urges the
Governor, and he is satisfied that the
several counties and cities and towns
of the State could be placed on the
same footing in the handling of public
funds. He estimates that about $780,
900 is now paid to treasurers in the
way of salaries and commissions, which
might just as we'll be saved, as the
banks are ready and willing to take
over the work of the treasurers-in
fact they are doing that now, the
treasurer being treasurer in name
only.
