Boards of supervisors and mayors
and alderman throughout the state
are becoming actively interested in
the law which requires the making
up and publishing Of county and
city budgets, covering all expenses,
and showing every source of revenue
and from what source derived. Almost
every day inquiry is made here at the
capital for this law. Failure to COM
ply with the provisions Of the law
shall make members Of boards of
supervisors and aldermen and mayors
liable on their official bonds for the
ful amount OF any claim allowed, con-
tract entered into, or public work pro-
Vided for, and the district and county
attorneys are directed to prosecute
Them for violation Of the law. While
the publication of this budget, which
must be done after the September
meeting, brings in considerable money
to newspapers, it is estimated that
many more dollars will be saved the
taxpayers.
