Pensacola has recently had her
city books audited and the disclos-
ures of said audit have torn that
town open. Among other things the
Pensacola News says:
Messrs. A. Greenhut, George Hen
richs, Peter l.. Rollo, J. j. McNamee.
Gentlemen: There has been much
rumor pro and con concerning where
you may or may not stand in affairs
of city government. For the benefit
of the voters, The News believes that
each of you should make it clear to
the citizens of Pensacola how you
propose, if elected, to go about rem
edying existing conditions in the
city, or if you would choose to con-
tinue the business management of
the city as it is now being conducted.
The News believes all citizens are
entitled to know where you stand
and also that they cannot vote in
diligently unless they do wnok, as
none of you have come out with a di-
rect statement as to your ideas of
city government The citizens are
about to vote to employ new com
missioner at the city hall and you
seem to believe you are qualified to
fill that position.
The News offers you space tomor-
row to tell within 800 words your
position on questions of city admin
istration and all will be given equal
prominence, as it is desired all citi-
zens shall know your ideas. The
News asks simply that these state
ments contain no attack on any other
candidate and simply outline your
pOllCleS. ~
The amount the city of Pensacola
contributed to the expense of send
ing committee to Washington in
the spring of 1914 is shown in

city accounts. Though ii was under

cation of troops near UensaCola til,
records speak of the committee a:
having gone to Washington in the
interest of the Pensacola navy yard
The following sums were paid by
the city for this trip:

| 1t will be recalled that the none!
to pay the expense of the committee
| to Washington was raised by volun
tary subscriptions. A member of thu
soliciting committees says to thu
best of his recollection donations o
$Sl2 were collected. 1t was agreed
that Mayor Greenhuts expenses OF
the trip were to be paid by the cit.
and that the city would pay S75 o
the expenses of one member of thu
committee, but member of thu
committee declares that the amounts
shown in the auditors report Il
have been spent were not agreed up
on.

Every mile of good roads requires
a lot of brain and muscle to be used
In Its construction, and a big item
In the total cost of road building Is
that OF unskilled labor. The work Is
healthful and interesting, and so In
many states where the profitable use
OF convicts in some uplifting occupa-
ton is a difficult problem, they are
employed In road building. In the
northeastern states there has been a
marked opposition to this. however,
due to several causes which collective
ly may be regarded as manifestations
OF the conservatism OF long-establish-
ed wealthy communities. 1t is inter-
esting to note, therefore, that the initial
experiment with convict labor In Mass
achusetss last year was so satisfactory
that undoubtedly such work will be
continued, while In New Jersey, where
the system has been under trial for
several years. this favorable opinion
has just been expressed by the state
highway engineer: 1.-The quality and
quantity of work done In 1915 exceed,
In proportion to the money spent, the
previous results. and the experience
gained during the past year will en-
able us to produce much more salts
factory results In the future" This
merely confirms for the northeastern
states what has already been demon
strated In the south and west.

,wS FROM THE STATE CAPITAL.

Boise, May 3, 1916.-The state has
inferred on the last lap Of its contest
|or the money which State Treasurer
Allen and his deputy took from the
hate funds, and there is every pros
Bect that within a very short time the
treasury will be enriched by the ad-
|ition of something like $500 of
he stolen money.
The suit to on the surety
Sonds was in progress so far as the
hking of testimony was concerned be-
|pre Judge McCarty Of the district
curt, for the last half of April. The
rincipal personal witnesses for the
tate were Allen and Coleman, who
5eTe also the principal reasons why
he shortage existed. Both men in
heir testimony throw open the sys-
em through which the money was
bken, and at the same time the books
kere made to balance for anything
kept absolute expert inspection.
On Saturday last argument was COM
3leted in the case, and it is expected
hat the court will render it's decision
nd grant a judgment in favor of
he state by the last Of this week.
fhe defending surety company is not
ndeavoring to prevent the collection
II the amount due on it's bond, but
anxious to reduce the amount due.
fhe total claim of the state including
interest on the defaulted amount, was
the vicinity of $150,000. The state
las confessed to the fact that of the
|ptal amount something like $1,000 is
low in the hands of the depository
board, composed of the governor, Sec
etary of state and attorney general,
which will properly apply on the
mount of the states leaving a total
II approximately $143,000 still due.
fhe defendant company claims that
a number of instances the loss to
Pie state is not a proper charge
tgainst the company and asks that
he judgment be reduced by these
ums.

stitutions of the state. All these funds
are now being reduced from month
to month, as the receipts from various
sources will not be sufficient to keep
up the running expenses of the state
government. After June /, when the
second half OF the taxes are payable
additional funds will be received.
State Treasurer Eaglesop is making
a successful effort at holding the bal
ances level, insofar as the various de-
positories of state funds outside of
Boise are concerned. For something
over two months all the banks that
are repositories of state funds, out
side of the capital city, have had state
funds to the amount of SIS per cent
OF the total amount authorized under
the law. There has been no variance
in this. With the five city banks, from
which funds are drawn with great fire.
quency, there is a very different story
10 tell. Sometimes these banks will
have less than 80 per cent of the pos
sible state deposits, and at other times
IN or more of the banks will have
60 or 70 per cent deposits. The state
funds in these banks fluctuate very
rapidly, as warrants are produced and
paid.
Control of Insurance Rates.
The attorney general has been re-
quested to determine in just what way
the insurance companies doing bust.
ness in Idaho can be controlled in
the establishment of prices. 1t has
developed recently that the rates for
the insurance of state buildings has
been increased by the coast board of
underwriters. There has been ad-
vanced the idea that these fire insur-
ance companies are in a sense public
utilities, and should be subject to
some form of control, at least so far
as in the matter of the charges made
for public services. The companies
themselves contend that business in
this state has been Improbable for a
number of years. The total collections
for insurance premiums on fire risks
in this state during the past three
years have been in the neighborhood
of one and a quarter million dollars
annually, while the total amount paid
out in satisfaction of fire losses, has
been from $500, 900 to 100000 annual
ly This it is claimed does not leave
sufficient to pay the cost of doing
business when all overhead expenses
have been paid.

WASHINGTON

"Washington is not an Ideal !;
he is a fact" These words writ
ten several years ago by a young
girl of the social set of our Ma
tional capitol, set us thinking. So
idolized by history, we scarcely
ever thought of him other than in
marble. Tradition so surrounds
him that he, at times, almost
ceases to be a man and takes on
attributes pertaining to the gods.
Our young author, firing of the
whirl of diplomatic circles, began
study of Washington. His daily
life, his business affairs, his re-
creation, his love for country life,
the game at cards, at the race, all
had her attention. His contact
with his neighbors, his ambitions,
his passions as we'll as his exper-
fences on the battlefield or at the
Council table-all these with the
stress and strain, incident to the
times brought out the man. He
stood the test. Study revealed a
character, unsurpassed in his
tory. His place in history is fixed
His rank as a soldier, his genius
of craftsmanship, have withstood
the critical investigation of the
student. To us he does not warm
as other personalities of history,
yet we never think of the name of
Washington but that we are re-
minded of its synonym-Charac-
ter.

When the boy came to the sur
face again we were both on hand
to drag him aboard. It was so
cold that morning that by the
time we got him down the deck
and the kitchen his clothes were
partly frozen. We took his wet
clothes off as quickly as possible,
gave him rub down, and dressed
him up in what old clothes we
could find.
He was a big boy about five
feet ten inches tall, weighing
about one hundred and seventy
pounds, so you can imagine how
funny he looked, dressed up in
Jim's shoes, my old trousers and
shirt, and one of those very old
style overcoats that are very
short.
ut must have been quite a
shock to the boy because the water
was very deep at this point, and
1t was bitter cold, and he could
