INTEREST ON COUNTY DEPOSIT I t seems tliat some of the tax payers do not understand why all tlie mouey in the hands of the county treuurer can not be used to pay off county warrants. For the benefit of those who do not understand I wish to u y that the bulk of the money in the liands of tlw county treuurer for Uw greater part of the- year Is PUBLIC SCHOOL MONEY against which there are no outstanding war rants, The county treuurer Issimply tlw custodian of this money and can pay out the same only on warrants, drawn by the School Trustees, In the meantime lie deposits It with tlie banks. All money belonging to tlw Regular County funds h u as I stated before been used to call In and pay off as closely and as soon u could be county warrants, thus saving the county u much 6 per cent Interest as possible. 1 further wish to say that all laws relating to the office of County Treas urer have been obeyed and followed out to,the letter during my term in office; and tiie records are open to the inspection of all.
