treasurer of the Territory trans
mit funds to the treasurer of a
school board, the supporting figures
or a copy- of the school board
treasurer’s bond, notwithstanding
the law creating the auditor’s of
fice made these requirements ob
ligatory.
That the auditor was right in
this instance is evidenced by Sen- j
ate Bill No. 76, in the recent Leg
islature, providing that the bond
of the treasurer of a school board
and a duplicate of the budget of J
a school board shall be filed with
the auditor.
! Of course, refusal of the audi-j
I tor to issue a warrant never con
i stituted final disposition of the
rejected claim. Claimants could
proceed in courts of law. But to
afford speedier adjudication of a
disputed claim that can be ob
tained in court, the last Legisla
' tore created a board of examiners,
; consisting of the Governor, the
Treasurer and the Attorney Gen
eral, to pass upon any claim dis
allowed by the auditor, and the
board is given power to instruct
the auditor as to his action in the
premises. Even this enactment,
however, does not release the au
ditor from responsibility on his
bond.
The auditor is bonded for $25,
j 000 for the faithful discharge of
j his duties. Under the criminal
law, he is liable to a maximum
fine of $10,000 or maximum im
prisonment of two years, or both,
for false or fraudulent acts in con
nection with his official conduct.
His duties are clearly defined
by statute. They are plain.
Against the treasury, whose only
resource is taxation of the peo
ple, he cannot draw warrants un
less they are supported by proper
vouchers representing expenditures
authorized by law.
Personnally, he cannot afford
to incur the liability of mistakes
or errors. Quite rightly, the pub
lic would neither tolerate nor con
done them.
