Statement by Committee.

To the tax payers of Iowa county and
others interested:
At the time of the adjournment of
the special meeting of the County Board
when the report of the committee APP
pointed at the regular session to audit
the accounts Of the asylum trustees
was received and acted upon, no action
was taken to contract for the publica-
ton of the proceedings of the session.
The matter was referred to US by the
county clerk, who claimed he had no
authority to order it published.
After consulting the district attorney
we find that neither the committee or
the county clerk has any legal right to
order the proceedings published, unless
it be on their personal responsibility.
AS the printers will not publish such
proceedings without a contract it is our
opinion that their publication is a ques-
ton for the next session of the County
Board to settle.

 Since the woIgast bout I have made $8,735 above my expenses, or week. In the same length of time Wolgast made $6,000, and had to pay his expenses out of that sum. Why, the week after the fight Woigast did not work-in fact, it was two weeks before he succeeded in getting an en- gagement. I lost the battle Tuesday afternoon, and on Wednesday evening left for Chicago. arriving there Sun day morning. I started working that afternoon, and in the two weeks Vol gast was looking for engagement cleared up $2,400.

He was at his very best and inasmuch as he is not a careful person regarding his habits l do not believe he can ever be good again as he was on the day he faced me. He will never again have the chance he had in the last ten rounds of that battle. Now. if Wolgast at his best could not knock me out, or even worst, what chance has he got against me when we meet in September, when I will be at my best and he not as good as he was two months agoY
