GARY TO
HAVE NEW
ST. SIGNS

The Gary board OF public works to-
day took up the question of installing
street signs upon the various corners
in the settled districts of Gary. In all
thNre will be $50 sign posts erected
1t is believed that III. A Campbell will
get the contract. Two years ago the
city undertook TO place signs in the
First subdivision and the contractor
who was a genius of the first water
put all of the west side signs on the
east side and the east side oneson the
west side, but all in regular order.
However, one good effect came from
this blunder. Several drinking men
who started to walk to their homes in
the west side believed that they were
going east and great mix-ups resulted.
This is said to have caused many to
get on the water wagon.
The board also took up routine BUSH
ness this morning and before the day
is over it may handle some big south
side improvement projects.

Rock Rapids. March 1.-THE report
Of Accountant L. A. Wilkinson, on the
examination Of the books Of the county
officials. was filed Friday. The exam
ination is practically complete and the
report as filed covers the years 1906
09-10.
In brief the report shows shortage
Of about $14,6OO against the late Treas
urer Weberg, the most Of which has
occurred thru error in apportioning the
taxes, some townships receiving too
much and some too little. This de-
ficiency was in some measure due to
lack of definite boundary lines Of the
different precincts, no plats Of the
various school districts and incorpora-
tons being on file in the auditors Of
flee. A poor system Of bookkeeping and
the lack of proper county books are
given among other reasons for the de-
f1ciency.
There is less than $4,000 that at
the present time appears to be unac-
counted for. This, undoubtedly, could
be cleared up II ex-Treasurer A. p.
Weberg was alive to explain matters.
In the clerks office there appears a
shortage Of s60623 which is made up
Of such items as insanity fees, I'M
claimed fees. flnes unpaid, and monies
due the county attorney which have
always been paid him by the clerk in
stead of having it come from bill filed
with the county board.
In the sherif's office there Is a de-
crepancy Of 31.01s.74. largely due hin
for the use Of his own team and
