Here is little more of the desperate
effort of the News and Observer to
maintain it's record for inaccuracy in
reporting the proceedings of the Board
of.the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Institute !:
"Of course this sort of management
will prove costly to the States tax
payers. The payroll already shows
$l,l36,7O more than last year. II man.
aged as we'll as by the old Board it
should be $2,13G.7O less than 1t is. Last
year, after electing Mr.. Ray as the
head of the institution, MI. Young
was employed at q salary of $1,000 for
would have saved that $1,000 this year.
The new Board saved this $1,000, de-
creased the salary paid Mr.. Blair's
| successor $40O-effecting a saving in
two positions of $1,4OO, and yet the
pay roll is already 81, 1850 more than
last year."
1t says Mr.. Young was employed
for a special purpose. This is rather
an indefinite explanation to the tax
pay ers whose interest the News and
Observer seems to have in mind. How
ever we desire to question the accura-
cy of the item of 81, 1850 which that
paper charges to be the increase over
the previous year. We took it upon
ourselves to see Superintendent Ray
and get his figures, which are as fol
lows:
Total saving over last years
salary, $1,795.0'
Total increase over last years
salary, $2,127.5'
Net increase 331.5(

clusiOn: Either Mr.. Daniels was
