Since the fling of the first accounts
by the candidates in the recent city
election were made with County Audi
tor Collins. in compliance with the
election laws of the state requiring
the candidates to file their expense
accounts within 10 days after the mu-
nicipal elections, more candidates have
filed their accounts. In each instance,
with the few possible exceptions of
the socialists and a minority OF the
municipal candidates, the amounts ex-
pended in the campaign were heavy.
The heaviest thus far is that which
was filed by William H. Gosch of
$3.50, which, however, is only a few
dollars ahead OF the accounts of sew
eral of the other candidates. Those
whose accounts have been placed on
file are: Walter Lncht, $172.73; John
Halligan, S142.50; Chris Kuehl, $142;
AdoIph Angst, $63.25; j. L. lies,
$49.55; James ]. Lamb, S137.35; Will

300 great sheets Of Irish linen paper
and bound into three massive volumes.
At the head Of each item is the name

book typewriter. The words thus liz.
serted amount to l53,852.

This is merely specimen Of some Of
the unique orders which get into the Bur.
