As to His Trips.

The next complaint pertains to the costs of the travelling expenses of the attorney generals office, and there is recital of two trips to Mississippi and one to South Carolina, and two to Washington, D. C., and other places, and the committee states it does not know what benefit the state of Arkan- sas received from these trips. The chairman of the committee must have known about some of the trips, be- cause he had talked with the attorney general and the assistant on the sub ject, and he could have known exactly the reasons why each of these trips was taken, and in what respect the public had interest in it. The commit tee apparently wanted no information except upon points which would re- fleet upon the integrity of the office.
 As to Alleged Indebtedness.
 The last item of indebtedness due from the attorney general to the state, according to the report of this committee, is $9,995.02 This commit tee arrives at that conclusion by get ting information from the Probate Court records of the different counties in the state of the amount of judg- ments that have been rendered in such courts in favor of the state for inher- itance taxes, and deducting therefrom the amounts collected and paid into the treasury since the committee re- ceiyed this information. The commit tee thus assumes, as an indebtedness on my part, the amount of all the judg- ments that are uncollected all over the state of Arkansas on account of inheritance taxes.
 Attorneys Fees.
 With regard to the charge that the attorney general could have saved the state S7,000 in attorneys fees and failed to do so, have this to say: The suit to recover the Cotton Belt fran chise tax was brought two years be- fore I came into office The attorneys brought the suit on contingent fee. If they succeeded in recovering the tax they expected the state to give them a fee; otherwise their labor was to be without compensation. The case was pending several years. and finally reached the Supreme Court of the United States. Before it was decided the taxes for other years were due and the attorneys who brought the first suit insisted that they should have the right to bring suits for the other years since the first suit was begun. They said that inasmuch as they had taken a chance of working without compen- sation, they should be allowed the opportunity of having a fee for the recovery of all the tax that might be adjudged due from the corporation. If there was a stipulation that all oth- CT cases should abide by the judgment in the first suit brought, that stipula- tion was voluntarily annulled by the attorneys before I came into office by bringing other suits"

Tt is certainly very bad practice from business standpoint, for the states interest, that private bank ing corporation should be used as a sub-treasury or depository for public funds without warrant or authority of law, and to the average citizen it will certainly appear from the foregoing sections that such practice is in vi olation of the criminal statutes of Ar kansas. both on the part of the pub lie official and the banking corpora ton, and subjects them to a prison
