STATE REQUESTS
PROMPTPAYMENT
Treasurcrs Asked to Remit Ii
cense Money This Year
When Received.

AS the state needs the money. all
county and city have been
requested to send in their collections
promptly about May /. This is done
because of the fact that the nance
arc very low. and but little money has
been coming in for some time past.
Captain S. r. Donohoe. Auditor OF
public Accounts. has sent out a letter
requesting prompt settlements.
This course was pursued one year
ago. when also cash was needed TO
keep running expenses going.
A good deal OF State money comes in
on May /, which is the date when all
license taxes for all kinds of business
are due. 1t is to get quick benefit from
this that treasurers are asked to remit
as soon as these large amounts come
INTO their hands.
A section of the Code provides that
.the Auditor of Public Accounts may
call upon any count or city treasurer
once In every thirty days after the
first day Of July of each year for 4
statement. under oath, of the amount
of State taxes collected by him. and
such treasurer shall. within five days
from the receipt of such a call. for
ward such statement to the Auditor
and pay into the Treasury the amount
collected" The date Of July l is men
toned because all treasurers are re-
quired, without reference to a call. &c
make final settlements BY June 15.
