Such d feat could not DO accomplished

On March IA, 1903. a law was enacted

days actually spent in visiting schools
while IN session, not over three days
Iii a district, and not over forty-fiye
districts In a year. MIR. Hubbell did
not leave Santa Fe until the legisla

the law passed, and eleven days after
lfr. Hubbeil left Santa Fe. he OBJ
tanned payment from the school fund
of a bill for 1876 days Of visits to
schools. On January 6. 1902, he took
from the school fund pay for 1875
more days Of such visits. From the
beginning OF the school year then
in progress to January s, 1857, there
cannot have been over seventy.five
school days. On Octobere s, 1902,
Just after the school year began. he
obtained from the school fund another
payment for 1856 impossible days OF
visits to schools. On April 3, 1903,

herents and imitators, who had then
been In Office n~inety.three days Of

Sundays. when the schools were not
in session, took another $675 for 1856
days Of visits. Thus In two years
and twenty days the school fund OF
this county was depleted to the ex,
tent OF $2,700 for services never per-
formed. and which were impossible
of performance. During the whole
