SHORT IN ACCOUNTS
Reported that the Treasurer of Gun
nison County, 5. L. Whipp, Is
Over $4,000 TO the Bad
Says II Is Mis-
take not His.

a sensation has been caused by the
announcement contained in a dis
patch from Gunnison to the Denver
papers Saturday night to the effect
that an examination Of the books o!
Smith L. Whip, whose term as treas
urer of Gunnison county expired jan
uary list. shows a shortage in cash
of sG.4O0 which he will be called up
on to make good. Whips books are
said to be very badly muddled.
Whip insists that his accounts
are not short, but that some irregu-
larity in his books has placed him in
an embarrassing position.
Those who have examined the
books say that it will take weeks TO
straighten out the tangle. There
appears to be many items that need
explaining. For instance there is a
tax charge on the books against the
Colorado Mining and Smelling com
pany of Pitkin county for $4,000.
superintendent ]. F. Pearson of Pit
kin claims that his company paid all
its taxes for 1905, amounting to 3d.
no. He will demand receipt from
the county commissioners.
Whipp is alleged to have failed to
collect approximately $1,000 interest
and delinquent taxes for which re-
ceipts have been issued.
Whpp says he will have an expert
go over the books and if he is really
short he will make every cent good.
1t is understood his bond is sign
ed by the American Bonding com
pany.
whipp does not claim to be an ex-
pert bookkeeper, and left the detail
management of the office to his bro
ther, John Whipp.
Whipp was first elected county
treasurer nine years ago on a fusion
ticket, and since that time has been
reelected on the Republican ticket
He was defeated last fall by Mrs. An
ma Marshall Downey, who went into
Office January 1st
The books were examined several
times in his tenure of Office and each
time things were badly muddled.

THEY NUMBERED 20, COO
Grand Junction Visited During Past
Year by Fully That Many
Strangers and CONNER
cial Travellers.

1t will be interesting to the. general
public to know that during the past
year, according to statistics gathered
by the Sentinel from local hotel reg
fsters, at least 10000 tourists, COM
merciaI men and other transient peo-
pie visited the city, not including the
visitors who came to spend some time
with relatives at private residences.
The st. Regis hotel (The Grand)
keeps a numerical record of each
guest that spends least one day at
the hotel. The record does not in
clude those people who simply come
in for one meal. The record of the s..
Regis shows that from June 1st last
year, until Jan. Is, 1000 guests had
been registered and cared for at the
hotel, not including those who came
in for only one or two meals. At
this ratio 1t can be safely and con-
servatively estimated that during the
past year there have been at least
5000 registered at the St, Regis he
tel. Investigations will show that the
two other leading hotels of the city
handled at least 1900 guests be
tween them during the year. Conse-
quently the grand total for the three
hotels for the year would be in round
numbers 10000 people.
Few cities of its size in the west
enjoy a larger transient visitor traffic
than Grand Junction.

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN.

Now and then wide awake citi-
zen does more good work in the de-
tective line than the officers are able
to do. This is illustrated by the fact
that citizen was primarily respon-
sible for the capture of the Mexicans
who robbed the barn on Struthers
avenue few nights ago, getting away
with n large amount of goods.
This gentleman read an account Of
the theft in the Sentinel. In passing
along in front OF the house of these
Mexicans, whose reputation he knew
to be quite shady. on Saturday morn
ing, he noticed large number of
bones. evidently those of chickens
protruding from a fresh ash pile in
the door yard of the Mexlcans. A
number of chickens were among the
property stolen from the barn, Sew
eral other circumstances made the
gentleman firm in his belief that
these Mexicans were the thieves and
he hunted up the undersheriff and
told him his suspicious. The sheriff's
officer at once acted upon this in
formation and making search of
the Mexican's house found nearly all
OF the stolen goods and arrested one
or more of the men.
Nothing like keeping your eyes
open these days.

An alleged shortage has been dis
covered in the books of the retiring
county treasurer of Gunnison county
of approximately six thousand dol
lars. The retiring treasurer is Smith
l.. Whipp and he has occupied the
position for n period of nine years.
Whipp declares that the shortage is
keeping. He asserts that he Is not
an expert bookkeeper and that the
books have been managed by his bro
ther. He asserts that he will make
good every cent, If upon examination
by an expert accountant 1t is found
that he is short. Here is another evil
dence that the books of county of
ficers are kept in such a crude fash
ion that neither the officers or their
assistants know half the time If they
are correct. Here in Mesa County
our treasurer has retired from office
and the incoming treasurer may not
know whether the books are correct
or not. The perfunctory examinations
heretofore held have been simply
farces in many cases. Many man
would not accept treasurers ac-
counts without n perfect trial balance
of all the books of accounts which
would be turned over by the retiring
treasurer. All that the new treasur-
or received was a receipt for the
amount Of cash on hand, he don't
know this minute the condition of his
books. OF course Mr. Williams fol-
lowed precedent. but If we We're the
incoming treasurer We would exact Il
complete balance of everything with
expert examination before accepting
the books. No man accepting COM
mercial position as bookkeeper or
treasurer of some great concern
would for one half minute think of
accepting his predecessors books.
without at the same time having a
complete trial banance before him.
II might be commercial and dishonor-
able suicide for him to do so. Our
whole system of bookkeeping is
wrong. This will be told anyone by
any clerk who has ever worked in the
office of the treasurer and who knows
the first principles of bookkeeping.

Hiram and A. J, Waters and James
Nelson who own some choice land
above the grape growers ditch in
the Vlneland neighborhood, are figur-
ing on watering about sixty acres Of
their land which lies on the first
bench of Palisade Heights and just
below the Oldham homestead, the
coming spring They have already
had estimates furnished on the same
but are yet undecided whether to
pump the water from the river or the
Grape Growers ditch. 1t is said
that the proposition is very feasible
one either way. The above land is
some of the choicest in the valley and
will make room for a dozen or more
families in that neighborhood.
