day Of speeches IN quick succession, as
colonel Roosevelt was hurried through

IS speeches and the colonel made sew
eral more than that There were large
crowds wherever he spoke Colonel
Roosevelt covered part Of the ground
which president Taft went over and
their paths crossed often
The former president renewed his at
tack upon his successor He asserted
that he would not reply to the things
which Mr.. Taft said about him, so far
as they were personal. but would con-
fine himself to political principles
A new point which colonel Roosevelt
developed was his denial OF the right
OF president Taft TO crlticise acts Of
the Roosevelt administration. he took
the ground that as a member Of the
Roosevelt cabinet, Mr.. Taft was a part
Of the administration, and as a candi-
date for president, he made his cam
paign with the record OF the Roosevelt
administration as his platform he
charged that the president had Joined
MI. Taft Changed.
the bosses who were against Mr. Taft
four years ago had not changed. but
that il was Mr.. Taft who had changed.
Il stand by all my administration
he said Il stand by il, and If 1 am
again elected president I shall try to
administer the government IN the in
terest Of all OF you, the plain people,
just as L strOve to administer II be-

Clio Wins Second Money


The outcome of the first two
games brought il about so that Clio
and MontroSe-the osers-were
doomed to battle for the second
money, Thursday Afternoon. The
rain promised to make it necessary
to call the game off but The sky
cleared about 3 o'clock and the bat
tie was on. Montrose had secured
the services of "our own" CD Chief
Bender and Murphy did the twirl-
ing for Clio. The game was sure
some" contest from start to finish.
The visitors cleaned one run in the
first paragraph but that was the eX-
tent Of il. Murphy played his game
every minute and pulled himself out
of several tight places. He was ac-
corded almost perfect support, and
The same may be said Of the back
ing given Williams by Monirose.
Williams never before played his
position as he played ii Thursday
and he struck Out nine ClioiteSsin
the first six sections. The Nome
boys punched hits on him for run
in The seventh and his wild heave
over third in the eighth was respon-
sible for The tally that told the tale.
Murphy hung the three Of a kind
sign on seven of the opposition but
the lunks the visitors made landed
the ball in the several lakes sta
toned at intervals on the diamond,
or else grounded into nets and
caught the eager runner on the in

boys getting beyond first. The play

Other Attractions

Other attractive "stunts" were the
usual run of street artists in The
art of separating the nickel from
the pocket. Several "Hit 'em on the
head" parlors were in evidence.
The "Hot Dog" "Coney Island and
novelty stands also corralled their
share of the flying coin. The Kel-
ley-Brennan Co. ministered TO The
dramatic needs of the visitors each
and every evening for the week, and
as usual their performances were
clean and creditable. And no one
had been a true Home Conner" un-
less he had "tripped the light fan
tastic" at the bowery.
The Second Annual was surely a
winner and the increasing success
of these annual good times" makes
any prophecy for the future seem
useless. But we'll all come home
again in 1913.

CARELESS OF BONDS
School Districts Not Particular
Enough About Safety of Their
Finances

Many school districts in the state
and some in this vicinity are not
properly safeguarded i'm that their
trcasurers are mol under lawful
bonds. The law provides that the
treasurer must give personal SUI
rcty bond for the fall amount OF
money to come into his hands dur
ing each year of his term of office.
This bond must have at least two
surciies, who are liable for The
amount and each signcr OF 1t must
Justify in writing and under oath
TO the amount for which he is
holden. The bond cannot be signed
BY member of the school board
nor is the name of a married wom-
an good on a bond. Practically the
only districts in the state which
have lost money are those, which
failed to have their ireasurers un-
der proper bonds.
MI district money must be kept
by the treasurer separate from
other funds and must be on hand at
All times i'm actual cash or must be
deposited in the name of the treas
urer as treasurer in a bank or
banks. ANY interest accruing on the
school money must be placed in
the general fund OF the district. a
treasurer who loans district money
TO any person or organization, no
matter how good security he may
have, or who appropriates any in
tercst for his own uses, lays him
self liable to fine and Imprisonment.
