PEN|TENT|ARY SHORTAGE
THE EX.WARDEN SAYS NO
SAYS BOOKS AUDITED, CHECKED
AND FOUND TO BE ABSO-
LUTELY CORRECT.

In reply to the alleged shortage in
the penitentiary funds of $13,S1S.69, as
shown by a recent audit of the books
by a. representative of the Alexander
administration, John w. Shook, who
was warden during the period in
which the shortage is claimed to have
occurred, makes the following state
ment
Books Balanced.
SALMON, Idaho, September 16.-
The findings of a state employe who
has audited the penitentiary books
and reported $13,31S as 'unaccounted
for are incorrect. His audit was un-
doubtedly made from unofficial books
kept in the penitentiary store house
by convict for the use of the war
den, and solely to show how supplies
are distributed.
"F Fl. Ellis was convict book
keeper in the store house and good
penman. He made new book and
gave me the old official copy which
was blotched in several places with
ink, and had been written in by sew
eral convicts. ] put the old book in
the vault in the warden's office with
other old store house records.
All official records at the peniten-
tiary while l was in charge were kept
by civilian clerk employed for that
purpose, and they were in balance
With the state treasurer on January
1917, when ] resigned, with the ex-
ception of two warrants shown in my
biennial report.
"The audit of the penitentiary
books by the Audit company OF Illinois
Ia correct, and was made from the
official records and checked with the
state auditor and state treasurer.
1.-THE governor and Capital News
have had eight months to audit the
official books. AS there are two sets
Of books kept, one by convict and
the official set kept by civilian clerk
l would now ask. that they audit the
official set, which will show to theii
entire satisfaction that the various
funds mentioned in the Capital News
are not short one dollar.
1.-THE books were correct and the
penitentiary funds were intact during
my administration. and this attack IL
only an attemIa to protect the Capita
News on account Of the Barker libe

JOHN w. SHOOK"
Report Discredited.
Friends of Mr.. Shook and all Others
who are familiar with his administra
ton of the prison are not disturbed
over the charge made against him
There was very bitter feeling be
tween him and members of the AL
exander administration, which culmin
ated in a personal encounter between
Mr.. Shook and c. o. Broxon, thel
private secretary to the governor an
editor of the Capital News. MI
Broxon was very much worsted In tn
encounter, which occurred in the cap

it has been reached. Like all prop

A REAL SHOW COMING
Take the Children to See This Neat.
est and Cleanest of Shows.

To those that have reached mature
years the coming of the circus means
simply that they will have several
hours keen enjoyment away from the
ordinary run of pleasures. But to the
youngsters, circus day is the day, a
red letter day, an occasion long to be
remembered. You recall with vivid
memory, do you not, the very first
circus you ever saw? How you stared
round-eyed at those fierce looking
animals: And you remember too,
don't you, how you failed to under
stand why those elephants had tails
in front and back and how father
laughed when you asked him about
it? Then there was the music of the
bands, the wonderful acrobatic feats
of the gaily dressed performers, the
funny antics of the clowns all making
an indelible impression on your child
ish mind and transplanting you to
real wonderland.
Many another child will experience
these enjoyable impressions on Satur-
day, June 16, when the j. H. Eschman
World United Shows will exhibit af-
ternoon and night at Emmett We
hope with all our heart that every
youngster in the vicinity has the
pleasure of seeing this wonderful
attraction, or rather, this collection
of attractions. There are many edu-
cational features with a large enter
prise like the above, the foremost of
which, in our opinion, is that many a
youth has been encouraged to greater
achievements along physical lines by
noting the results obtained by persist
ent and continued efforts.
Yes, we hope that all the little folks
around here attends the ]. H. Esch-
man World United Shows and our
sympathies are with the little boy or
girl who is compelled to stay at home
while other more fortunate associates
go to the show and return to relate
with childish exaggerations, the Won
ders they have seen.-Adv.
