Every tax collector shall make report to the auditor of public accounts and clerk of the board of supervisors, respectively, as hereinbefore provided; and if any tax collector shall not report to the auditor or clerk, and pay over to the state and county treasurers, within twenty (20) days after the last day of each month during the time of collecting taxes, he shall not only be punishable under the criminal laws of this state, but the auditor and clerk of the board of supervisors, after notice to a tax collector in default and continued failure by him to report and pay over, as above provided, shall report the failure to the governor, who may suspend the tax collector and prohibit him from the performance of his functions, and may appoint some suitable person, being a qualified elector of the county, to collect the taxes, who shall give bond, with sureties, as required of tax collectors, to be approved in the same way. Such substituted tax collector shall proceed to collect the taxes remaining uncollected and to make such reports and payments of state and county taxes as the tax collector is required to make; and, for any failure of duty in this respect, he shall be subject to like penalties and proceedings as provided for in case of default by a tax collector.
