Abolish Treasurers, Says The
Governor.

In short addition to his message
CO.. Noel urges that the Office
OF state, county and municipal
treasurers be abolished by consti-
tutional amendment, and the sug-
gestion seems to have been very
fayorably received, it being shown
that more than 5000, 900 would be
thus saved o the tax papers.
Since the State repositories were
established, there, is certainly no
necessity for a State treasurer,
urges the Governor, and he is sat
lsiied that the several counties and
cities and towns of the state could
be placed on the same footing in
