things 1 felt proud Of in my term of
office One was that 1 had never been
approached with a bride. and the other
was that I Gid not know of one mis-
spent dollar during my administration.
You remember YOU congratulated me
on that fact. Now, why didn't YOU
tell at that time about these irregu-
larities?'
Mr.. Cannon made no answer TO
that plea, and he was then asked if
he had spent the money in gambling.
He replied that he had never spent A

spent it for family and personal eX-

Rolapp.



The question of admitting the ballots OF
Morgan county to the recount will prob
ably come up this morning. One or two
circums tances connected with the custody
and handling of the ballots may furnish
cause for argument by the attorneys
William Robinson, the clerk OF Morgan
county, states that he started to bring the
ballots to Ogden few days ago on a
telephone request from Judge Roapp,
who told him they would be wanted as
evidence. He put the envelopes in a bag
anG brought them as far the depot in
Morgan. when another message from
Judge ROlapp informed him that the court
would send an officer after them
While Robinson was away the tele
phone the ballots were left alone in the
depot for a few minutes. II is understood
that these facts will be brought out in
testimony that viii be introduced this
morning. Judge Rolapp had simply noti-
fled the court ia order to expedite matters
and had overlooked for the time that the
statutes require that the court send
special officer after the exhibits. Not
much Importance is attached to the in
cident. and it is not believed that the bal
lots have been tempered with in any
way.

Rondout creek. preventing AL hoats

tacks on the gorge by ice breaking
tugs have been unsuccessful. River
men believe that the ice has formed
solidly to the bottom of the creek and
rhot it cannot be dislodged with dyna-
mite sufficiently to allow navigation
because the Hudson rivcr beyond the
gorge is covered with thick ice, Since
fhe gorge has formed passengers are
transported across the river in sleighs.
