4 CARD or EXPLANATION.
Editor Tribune:

Editor Tribune:
As there seems SO he some misunder
standing of the first paragraph of my re-
port to the state superintendent of public
instruction. l consider it only just and fair
that l should endeavor to make my mean
ing more clear.
Let It he distinctly understood that
nothing pers0ndl whatever was intended.
When wrote the article, [ did not have
this particular county in mind any more
than Swift, Goo1lhue. or any other county.
sisting OF several distinct items, which the
district treasurer is requested to report to
the district clerk. the clerk to the county
superintendent, and lie to the state super
inten..ent.
Now these reports have heretofore been
inaccurate. and the cause of inaccuracy
has appeared to ME to he a lack of uni
formi'y in the banks used.
OF course there is more than one way to
correct the evil; but it has been and still
is, my opinion that the simplest way is
this: When IL district treasurer draws
school money from IL county treasurer, Il
statement should be given him of the
amru"t from each separate and distinct
fund; and blanks for that purpose should
be furnished. However, any other meth
cd thu, will secure accurate reports will lie
entirely satisfactory to me. But if we
must give statistics, let US have them accu-
rate, for otherwise they are worthless.
| Hoping that if any have misunderstood
the language of my report, thus will set
them right, remain, respectfully,
