There is no uniformity of accounts,

at ALL Thousands of dollars leak
out through this hole. Indiana has
a Public Accounting Law. There is
a state examiner and two deputies
under bond, who are like bank ex-
aminers in their work and powers.
They have field examiners to assist
them and the entire force is en-
counting system in every public Of

inc the books and make their re-
ports. They also check up all who
receive fees. There is a wholesome
influence in such law, for severe
penalties are inflicted upon any who
think they can hide their public
transactions in any way. This would
do much to check squandering of tax
money Let's have such law, and
some uniformity in our county rec
ords instead of different system in
each county.
Proposition No. 3. A leak in tax
money comes through letting bridge
contracts without competitive bid
ding, or by allowing supervisors to
play fast and loose" with favored
contractors in the squandering of
hundreds of thousands Of dollars OF
tax money. What is our Highway
Commission for if not to help plan
and supervise bridges? AS the law
now stands the supervisors of any
county may let contracts for bridges
without plans, without bids, without
competition and without contracts.
A law should be passed making it
compulsory for Boards of Supervis-
ors to have plans and specifications
drawn, and approved by the state
Highway Commission where the
bridge is to cost over certain
amount-say 500. Have it COM
pulsory that the plans be submitted
to several different builders for bids,
including at least three builders
whose names are to be furnished by
the state Highway Commission, that
there may be no collision between
supervisors and certain favored
builders. Sealed bids should be re-
ceived and written contracts entered
into, the contractor to put up a bond
for faithful performance.
In certain counties in Iowa,
bridges are built without prices be-
ing quoted, without plans approved,
and without written contract. The
Supervisors do not know what the
bridge will cost until the bill is
brought in, and they pay whatever
the builder asks, trusting wholly to
his sense of fairness as to prices.

STORIES OF R0ssINI.
His Dread of Thirteen and Friday and
a Coincidence.

a Coincidence.
Rossini had scant patience with
amateur composers. One such once
accompanied the manuscript of his
latest composition with Stilton
cheese. of which he knew Rossini to
be fond. He hoped of course to have
a letter praising his work. a letter
came, but all 1t said was: Thanks. l
like the cheese very much"
When Rossini was rehearsing one Of
his operas in small theater in Italy
he noticed that the horn was out of
tune.
"Who is that playing the horn in
such an unholy way?" he demanded.
1T is l." said a tremulous voice.
'Ah, it is you, is it? Well, go right
home" 1t was his own father.
Rossini's whimsicality extended even
to his birthday. Having been born on
Feb. 20. in leap year, he had of course
a birthday only once in four years.
and when he was seventy-two he face
tiously invited his friends to celebrate
his eighteenth birthday.
All his life he had a dread of the
number thirteen. as well as of Fri
days. He never would invite more
than twelve to dinner. and once when
he had fourteen he rNtde. sure of an
understudy who would. at a moments
notice. have been ready to come should
one guest have missed. And. though
this was a double superstition. he died
on Friday, Nov. 13.-New York Sun.

air is unexpanded and heavy. Both
the hot and the cold air have weight
