Henry VII, the first of the Tudor

of Wales into the royal standard after
the battle of Bosworth.
Queen Mary had 1t removed, and
Queen Elizabeth replaced it, but it was

COUNTY TREASURER WILL BE REQUIRED
 ID MAKE NEW BOND
Board of Revenue Without DiscretiOn-BOnd May Reach Nearly Two
 Million Dollars

That the board of revenue will reouire County Treasurer M, V Henry to file A bond as required under the terms of sec ton 21o of the code of Alabama, is al- most assured This action will probably be taken at the meeting of the board this morning, as it is understood some of the members of the board will go on record as demanding that the law be complied with.
 The matter of the treasurer's bond came up yesterday morning when Coun- ty Solicitor Black informed the board that in his opinion as well as that of Attorney General Martins, the present bond of the county treasurer was wholly insufficient. He pointed out to the board that their attention had been called sev- eral times to this fact and that the law was plain as to the amount of the bond the treasurer is required to make.
 County Treasurer Henry was present when Solicitor Black gave his opinion and asked that no action be taken at this time as his attorney was out of the city and that he wished to have him present when the board took action. The board passed the matter until this morn- ing.
 The present bond of the county treas urer is s40O 600, the same as his prede- cessor, c. B. Rogers. Under the ruling of the attorney general this VIII have to be raised to $150o,000 or more. It is estimated that the premium on the required bond would exceed the treas urer's salary.
 Under the interpretation of the law as given by the solicitor and attorney gen. eral, the board of revenue has no dis cretion in the matter, and may be liable to impeachment if the bond required by law is not made
