and no improvements to show for it But with the present board there is no reason and should be no fear of such a result because the marshal who collects this mon ey is under a good bond to cover every dollar of the money which will come into his hands The treasurer W L Richards is under bond for every dollar which will go into his hands and we might add that all taxes and fines Collected must be paid to him and then paid out by order of the board of trus- tees ¬ which order must be of record stating for what it was paid Then at the end of every quarter Ihe board will furnish a detailed state
