crowds. In the center is a space which
has been converted into an extremely
attractive rest room Chairs and rugs
with writing tables and an electric
fountain combine to make the rest
room very inviting. The bottom of the
fountain consists Of a round plate

LOSE TO oskALoosA FIVE.
MarshaIltown High Basket Men De.
feated in Exceptionally Fast Game.

Playing on a small floor. against an
exceptionally fast team, the Marshall
town high school basketball team met
its first defeat of the season at Oska
loosa Saturday night in an air tight
contest, by the close score OF 20 to 25.
The small playing zone proved a big
handicap to the local players, and re-
suited in frequent penalties for carry
ing the ball out of bounds. Despite this
handicap the teams were very evenly
matched. and the big rangy Oska-
loosans played n fast and consistent
game. At the close of the contest
Referee Younts declared It to have been
the fastest and best played high school
game he had ever witnessed. Neither
team could gain an advantage in the
first half. which resulted in a score
of IS to l6 but in the second period

Thawing weather, with an accom-

and threatened for a time the city's
water supply and a bridge over Linn
creek. A gorge of ice that formed at
the mouth Of the channel that flows

main, threatened the main Saturday.
The gorge later went out without do

partly disappeared, as tho it had been
washed out.

1t was regarded as doubtful II the
dam can be repaired. 1t is presumed
that the most damage was done by the
water eddying under it and eating out

when the ice gorge broke. says the
water was as high as the top of the
pipe. The situation he regarded as
dangerous because of the pressure Of
the water that was damned above the
gorge and also because OF the thick
ness of the ice.
Gorge Damages Bridge.
One piling under the May street
bridge over Linn creek was torn out.
and the bridge was threatened by an
ice gorge that piled up against it Sat
urday. County Engineer w. W. More

ice released before any more serious
damage was done the bridge.
The water which was about bank
full in the creek and river Saturday,
went down Sunday. In the channel
where the city main crosses the water
is flowing under the main.

have been included in the approprla-
tions for 1916.
."That there are unexpended bal
ances in the treasury is unavoidable
and that is a condition which always
obtains, as every person conVersant
with the State finances knows. If that
is included in Mr.. Hams questions 1t
answers itself.
Altogether approximately 100000
appropriated has been unexpended for
good business reasons and not in any
sense whatever for political purposes.
I presume there may have been some
unexpended two years ago.
Looking back two years 1 find that
the cash balance in the State treas
ury on June 8, 1914, was SAL, 1oS.43.
THE cash balance in the State treas
ury on June 8, 1916, was s1,s17 ,sO7.2s.
This shows a difference of s1,17s,-
scO.ss in favor Of the present admins
tration.
Now to satisfy the critics let us de-
duct from that the approximately $780,
900 which they say we are holding
back to initiate the treasury. and we
still have 1916. soO.s 50 more in the treas
ury than was there on the correspond
ing date two years ago. And It must be
remembered that the greater part of

"Mr. Ham must prove that the expen-
ditures are being held up in order to
swell the cash balance. The opportu-
nifty was given him to do so in public
debate but he did not choose to accept.
Now, Mr.. Ham, allowing all your
contentious, just how much political
effect would 1t have on the voters Of
Maine whether thei cash balance was
s1,617 ,90726 or s1,417, 907.2e: Isn't it
ridiculous on the face Of it to think 1t
would have any effect. But please do
ont forget that there are always unex-
pended balances and always will be.
Remember also that this administra-
ton is not paying contractors in ad-
vance for work not accomplished.
IF you must criticise why not do
so on something which may appear to
you as out Of order instead Of things
which are in order as everybody
knows; that is If your only contention
is that there are unexpended balances
instead Of accusing US Of charging the
cash balance for political purposes to
Of the Legislature?
1T would be ridiculous for anyone to
attempt to maintain that there was
ever a time in this State when there
were not unexpended balances, but as
understand It that is not the question
at issue.
