sequence, and that every dollar en-
trusted to the management had been
accounted for.
In closing, we must reiterate that
the report of the cOmmitte does the
school signal injustice; in no sense has
there been one thing to reflect dis
credit upon the school; it is a beauti-
full and splendid institution; ideally To-
Gated, it's grounds are most attTac-
tive; its lands are in excellent con-
ditiOn; it's buildings are ScrupulOusly
clean and sanitary; its food is of the
very best; its health record is hardly
to be surpassed; its employees are
loyal; it's discipline is good; all it's
appointments show intelligence, care,
attention, and a high regard for the
health and comfort and well being of
it's inmates; its funds have been adj
ministered with scrupulous integrity,
and not a breath of suspicion of graft
can be justly cast upon single mem
Der of its management; indeed, it is
credit to the management, the super
intendent, and the employees, and the
committe should properly have so re-
ported To have done less, certainly
was not fair or just on their part.
What we have said, we have said
with all respect, but with full con-
Viction of the correctness of our pO-
sition and our facts.
And because this is a great state
institution, of which the state can be
justly proud, because the report Of
this committee has not done justice to
either its managers, it's superintendent
nor its employees and has in a meas
ure reflected upon the people of this
section, we most earnestly demand
that the governor and q member or
members of his cabinet come over and

fraud and a farce" This old gentle
man, gallant Confederate soldier that
he was and still more gallant protec-
tor of the southern women and chill
dren in the terrible days just succeed
ing the war, full of tact and ability to
handle the colored boys, is we'll worth
the salary he earns for this arduous
duty; and it is to be regretted that,
not cognizant of the situation, the COM
mittee saw fit to speak in such dras

school at No. 2, which, considering
that the boys are colored boys, and
need but little education in the eye of
southern men, in our opinion, is rea-
sonably sufficient for its purpose.
The Buildings.
In stating that the various buildings
are in good condition and in good re-

towards showing how excellently they
are kept. 1t must be borne in mind

Management and Superintendent.
In the matter of management, if the
number of managers or the number of
meetings do not come up to the law,
it is not the fault of the resident man
ayers at Mariana. At all times, in
season and out of season, they have
stood by the school, and have always
been ready and willing to give it their
time, attention and counsel. If the nom
resident member saw fit not to come,
or to come only once or twice, the res
ident managers have not the slightest,
on that account, neglected the school,
or permitted the school to suffer by
the dereliction of the nonresident
manager. The resident managers have
visited it, conferred with the super
intendent. provided it with finances,
kept it going, and at all times have
done their duty, the president abso-
lutely without one cent of comDUn-
sation, the treasurer for only 100000 A
year for bookkeeper: and busy men as
they are, concerned with large mat
tiers, deserve no criticism, express or
tacit, at the hands of the committee.

uncle of the president, is a man of

season closes. That doesn't mean that
their respective positions will not be
somewhat changed as the struggle for
last place continues to be in doubt. Gin
cinnati will undoubtedly advance a peg or
two, thus leaving St. Louis and Boston
to contend for last place. None Of these
teams are in class with the first four,
that is certain. Which is the weakest of
the lot is not SO certain, but the Reds and
Superbas look to be superior in most re-
spects. 1t has been bad season for the
vets on these teams and an infusion of
young blood will be necessary for better
showing next season.
In Boston the fans are waiting to see
what Manager Carrigan can do. A rumor
was started that Speaker and Wood were
to be traded for Ty Cobb but the fans
laughed it out of existence. The team
needs good first baseman and the market

Mr.. McAleer has stated that Manager
Carrigan's job next year depends upon
what he does with the team from now I'M
til the seasons close. 1t is quite reasonable
to suppose that Carrigan will not overlook
any chances.
Rumors of managerial changes still con-
tinue to be bruited about in St. Louis, but
is pretty late in the season for such talk.
Neither the Browns or Cards would be
likely to Improve very much with change.
