Mr. Eny sug gests that the law should specifically state whether these should be exempt from the inheritance tax. Business in tho office of state trvaa tiror, during tho eight years that Mr. Kay has served, has increased 300 per cent, the report shows. Interest collected on stato funds de posited in depository banks during the last two years amounts to 73,937.27, as against 47,262.18 collected during the previous two years. Prior to tho enactment of the state depository law in li07, the state treas urer used t0 personally pocket this in terest money, which is now enough to more than pay the entire expenses of tho state treasurer's department.
