P».tl CHERRY mtvkhu ifers The horse show given by the Springfield Matinee, Club] on W ed ; nesday was one of the greatest events in horse circles th a t was ever* held in the state. The day was ideal tor such i n affair and a crowd estimated a t SO,000 paid ad-, mission a t the gate. The show was held during the mornihg, afternoon and night. The grounds in tho evcftlbg were lighted with electric lights.

A WORD ABOUT SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES. 1 The alleged charges of graft against^^,..H.r -A^raw_and State Examiner, S. C* Young, who finds th a t both have drawn money out of tbe village treasury illegally. From Mr, Young’s report to Hon. W. D. Gilbert, auditor of state, we take the following Information: .The different departments were examined and every thing found In good shape. The funds are deposit­ ed in the local bank and a t that time amounted to $1,570.65. A certificate from the bank shows all money, to bo properly accounted for., ' There is no bonded indebtedness on the corporation. . . The receipts of the mayor’s office have been properly turned over to! the village tronsurer. *In going over the old council’s re­ cord’s Illegal payments were made to B, E . McFarland tor coal. The various items totaled ^97,33 covering a period from Dec. 3,1908 to Bee. 2, M?P7* The report states: “ The above payments made to B. E, McFarland ware for coal furnished by Andrew Bros., •of which J . H, Andrew, .councilman, was a member. All (tie above payments were in contra­ vention of Sec. <15M. U, which pro­ vides:—“ Nor shall any member of cm U uc II, board, officer or commis­ sioner of the corporation, have' a ry interest in the expenditure of money on the part of the corporation other than his fixed compensation.” Two items amounting to $5.75 were charged against Mr.. Wright. Bo criticism falls on Mr. McFar­ land as he was only acting agent for Andrew Bros., to evade the lOw on the part of J. H . Andrew. ''During the two years covered in the exami nation Andrew Bros.., furnished all the coal hot one of the other .dealers In town being recognized. While,, the examination did not cover the entire time Chat J , H. Andrew drew money indirectly for coal the same practice lias been In Use fer years: Had th* examiner gone back the amount charged against Andrew would r a n up to several, hundred dollar*. op a nutnbbr of items the best legal ta len t in the stare holds to be illegal. The items in question wfll exceed three hundred dollars tile past two years* While the amount doe* not carry any great weight it is* clearly proved tha t these, mon have been guilty of using the public funds to their per­ sonal gain ind irect violation of the law. Tho examiner made no finding ns to illegal payments with the board of education. The funds th a t were In question wore not raised directly by taxation and it appears, th a t this money can be spent ter-Cwhat the members see fit, whether the public received any benefit in return or not. I t has been reported th a t S. C. Wright and Andrew Jackson have been exhibiting a letter from W, F. Orr contradicting the findings of tho state examiner. This letter has no boaring on the Andrew and Wright cases in the corporation. Cowttship School Report, Enrollment....... Average Daily Attendance.. Per Cent Daily Attendance,. Number Tardy..
