MIR. TULLY,s POSITION.

1t is somewhat difficult to see why
State Treasurer TuIly lines up in OPP
position to the plan devised by State
Auditor Nation and State Accountant
Gafford, assisted by J. E. Cation, an ex-
pert accountant, to perfect the state
system of handling its finances, to the
end that grating may be eliminated
and chances of error reduced to a
minimum.
Mr.. Tully bears a high reputation
among those who have known him for
years. Yet here at the outset of his Of
fetal career he is objecting to the in
PRODUCTION of a system of bookkeeping
that will do away with all the charges
and suspicion concerning the state
treasury; a system that will make it
impossible for such things to occur as
have recently compelled ex-Treasurer
Grimes to pay back to the state treas
ury nearly $4,000. 1t would appear
as though Mr.. TulIy would be one of
the foremost advocates of such a sys-
tenn
For many years there have been
charges and, rumors of graft in con-
neotion with the state treasury. 1t has
been reported that treasurers have
made large sums by allowing banks
d
ter that has never been investigated,
but expert accountants have discov-
cred that large amounts of money have
been taken from the state school fund.
Some of it was surreptitiously returned
by "a. R. Brown" when the account
ants were about to discover the short
age, showing that the thief knew he
had no right to the money. The plan
proposed by Auditor Nation will put a
stop to all this sort of thing, and in
opposing it Mr.. Tully places himself
in a peculiar position.
The main reason alleged is that the
proposed system is too intricate and
makes too much work. but the
additional work comes chiefly in the
auditors office. Certainly Mr.. Tully
would prefer to have his office do a
little more work than to discover after
he goes out of his office that he is
short in his accounts and be compelled
to pay the state $4,000 or such a mat
ter. That is what has happened to
Grimes.
There is no suspicion, so far as this
paper knows, that Treasurer Tully de-
sires to perpetuate any opportunities
of graft for the purpose of grating,
and that is why it is difficult to under
stand why Mr.. Tully opposes the Ma
ton plan. There are rumors that T.
T. Kelly and his henchmen have work
ed up this opposition Whether this
is true this paper does not know.
The county clerk in Mr.. Tully's
home county has sent out letters say
ing that the Nation plan increases the
work in the offices of the county
cl srks, but this is denied by the franz
ers of the measure. But even grant
