Beginning this week the Hoodoo mi

such as it has never seen before, ac-

understood that they will begin at

CONTRACT GIVEN
REINHARD & co.
COEUR D'ALENE FIRM WILL IN
STALL NEW ACCOUNTING SYS-
TEN IN STATE HOUSE
Firm Now Auditing University Books
And Also Uncover Embezzlement
in KOOtenai County

The firm of L. F. Reinhard G Co. OF
Coeur d'Alene and Spokane was Sat
urday awarded the contract to install
a complete new accounting system in
all the offices in the state house at
Boise. The word came to Mr.. l. F
Thomas, a member of the firm, now
in Moscow auditing the books of the
university. The contract is one for
substantial appropriation at the last
session. 1t is expected that the firm
will begin the work within the next
few months.
The taxpayers league of Kootenai
county is hot on the trail of county
officials who are either incompetent
to administer the affairs of the office
properly or who are shown to have
been guilty of embezzlement of county
funds and through the expert auditing
of the books of various county offices
by L. F. Reinhard & Co. already
charges of embezzlement have been
filed against two officers and only last
week the auditor and recorder of the
county was forced to resign because
of incompetency. AS a result of the
audit of the books of c. e. Acton, as
SCISSOR during 1913 and 1914, Acton
pleaded guilty to embezzlement, and is
now serving time in the state peniten-
tiary. j. w. Smith, assessor and tax
collector for 1909 and 1910, is charged
with embezzlement, but is still at
large. Because he left the state be-
