standing beside the road but within the

may be removed by the town for the
benefit of the highway. When signs ar,

All the cars of Russia have been
crowned in the famous Kremln In Mos
COW, and In the treasury there are
thrones OF all the emperors of the past
as well as the historic jewels and the
choicest plate now owned by the Russian
crown. There are 5000, 100000 worth Of
gold and silver and precious stones in
that treasury and there are basins of
gold there Ms big as baby's bath tun,
and two card tables of solid silver. The
CIR has evidently got quite mine to
draw on if verse come to worst. And
by the way, what is the use of all that
treasure that is locked up? 1t does no
one any good, and if il was sold or put
into circulation it would accomplish
something. 1t would be interesting to
know how m .ch treasure is lying useless

rect? I see from your answer that
none of your warrants drawn at
your August and November terms
were as you say reported to the
Court as having been paid by the
Treasurer.
You say, Gin explanation of the
amount S10S.S0, shown to have
been paid out for election purpos-
es," ETC., you are referred to the
list of warrants heretofore set out
under the heading, ELECTIONS"
which have been and should have
been reported in Financial State
ment of previous years and have
no connection whatever with your
last statement.
Your explanation of the balance
of S2.6S and the S74. 81 as back
taxes is accepted, but was not it
best to call your attention to it so
you could make the explanation?
Also your explanation of the SS4.-
"a; but why didn't you carry it to
the receipts and expenditures?
Now let me call your attention
to the monies expended on the
roads from the County Revenue
Fund. You say in your classified
list of expenditures that you ex-
pended S347.40 from County Rev.
enue Fund on the roads.
In your Financial Statement in
the REGISTER of the issue of May
9TH, 1904, under tae heading,
County Road Fund, you say that
you appropriated or transferred
from County Revenue Fund S2,-
1873 Under expenditures of the
road fund you set out how that and
all other road monies were expend-
ed with the exception of S121.45
cash on hand in all districts Feb
ruary 1st, 1904. Now deduct
St21. .45, cash on hand in all dis
tricts February 1st, 1904, from
S24S1.93, amount appropriated or
transferred and you have the
amount expended on the roads last
year from County Revenue Fund
which is S2360.4S. Which is er-
roneous? S347.40 or S236O.4S? Both,
for you appropriated or transferred
S2566. 27.
If you only expended S347.40 as
you say in your classified list of
expenditures and your answer,
then you did not expend S2360.4S
as you say you did in another
place. If you expended S2360.4S
(which believe you did from the
amount of work done on the roads
last year, then the S347.40 is er-
roneous.
Now if any one were earnestly
searching for the truth, would not
it be necessary for one to be en-
dowed with extraordinary (not Or
dinary) intelligence to be able to
tell from your Financial Statement
and answer which of the above
amounts '(S347.40 or S2360.49) you
did expend on the roads last year
from the County Revenue Fund?
1t is the first time that | ever
knew a county court to take the
position that county warrant
drawn to pay bill, or check
drawn by an individual to pay a
bill, was not an expenditure until
it was paid incash, and so report
ed to the court or individual.
AS I understand your Financial
Statement and answer, that is the
position you take, and while I am
possibly person not possessed
with as much as ordinary intelli-
gence,.I beg to differ with you be-
causee ach and every warrant
drawn represents an expendi-
ture and should be charged up as
such.
I will reproduce the two columns
of figures of my first article:
