§ 58. The Commander-in-Chief may require that a bond in a suitable amount, payable to the People of the State of Illinois, shall be given by an approved surety company for any officer accountable for public property, for its proper care and use as provided herein or by regulations, and for its return upon demand of competent authority in good order and condition, fair wear and tear and unavoidable loss excepted, subject to the recommendations of a survey, approved by The Adjutant General. Provided, however, that The Adjutant General with the approval of the Governor, may obtain an adequate indemnity bond covering all or part of the officers so accountable or responsible, in which case the officers so covered shall not be required to furnish individual bonds as hereinbefore provided. The charges and expenses of all bonds provided for in this Act shall be paid by the State. Upon the violation of any of the conditions of any bond executed and delivered under the provisions of this Section, action thereon shall be brought by the Attorney General on behalf of the State. It shall be the duty of the Attorney General of the State to prosecute all actions upon such bonds.
