school districts is also attached.
These entries pro and con will bring
the sub-district accounts in balance
with the “General Ledger” accounts,
when these shall have been corrected
according to the figures and data sub
mitted herewith.
While, as stated, the cash accounts
have been fairly well kept, the sub-ac
counts prior to January, 1906, have
rot fared so well. At the close of the
term ending January 3, 1900, an un
usual condition existed. A credit bal
ance of $4,918 80 in the “General Led
ger account of the Special Fund” ap
pears, while credit balances in the sub
funds by which the treasurer would
settle with school officials, amount to
only $1,905.54. In the district levy
fund, as kept in the sub-ledgers for the
various districts for the same period, a
total of more than $33,000 was shown,
while only $30,257 90 was shown to
their credit in the “General Ledger”
account. The Bond Fund was more
than $200 out of balance.
All of these ac&.unts have been cor
rectly kept for the year ending Janu
ary 8, 1907, but the discrepancies as
found in the accounts to January 3,
1900, will need to be corrected as per
statements attached.
As shown by the list of changes to
be made, the sum of errors in the cash
account of former Treasurer Mullen
leaves $3.30 due from him to the
county. The sum of $1.18 is due from
H. R. Henry. The difference between
the charges and the credits in the er
rors in the account of D. J. Cronin, as
shown in the statement attached, is
$4.13 in favor of the treas urer. This
however, does not take into account
the matter of the “Docket Fees” col
lected by Treasurer Cronin, and by
him credited to his “Fee Account”
insteading of crediting them to the
“County General Fund” direct as pro
vided by law and custom in other
counties. Reference is made in this
particular to the last examination by
State Examiner E. J. Robinson, and
his report of the same including the
opinion of the Attorney General on
this subject.
The attached error sheet shows a
total of 05 cents of debit errors, and 2
cents of a credit error during the one
year term of R. E. Chittick, ex-treas
urer. This leaves a net balance due
from Mr. Chittick of 63 cents. With
these exceptions, all accounts of this
treasurer are found to have been cor
rectly kept.
With the assistance of your mem
bers, practically all of the vouchers
upon which the disbursements were
made were found. The few exceptions
to this were thoroughly looked up and
either the District Treasurers’ re
ceipts, or a cancelled check for the
amount were found.
The accounts of this county with
the state have been thoroughly gone
into, and the levy as made and extend
ed for every year has been verified.
One of the results already secured is a
refund in the sum of $402.62 by state
warrant, which is now in your county
treasury. I acknowledge efficient as
sistance in this connection rendered
by Mr. Phillips, your state senator.
All tax lists to including 1900 have
been gone over, and the uncollectable
taxes have by your order been stricken
from the lists. This will net the
county credits of over $1,000, which
will reduce the balance due the state
in a like amount.
In conclusion: I am indebted to
each member of your board for every
assistance and courtesy extended.
Also, to the various county officials
and their assistants whose records I
have examined in connection with the
work of the county treasury.
Respectfully submitted,
E. P. HOVEY, Accountant.
Educational Notes.
About one hundred sixty eightgrade
pupils will take the examination next
Thursday and Friday. The diploma
earned at this examination allows a
pupil to enter any high school in the
state without having to pay a tuition
fee. Another advantage of having a
diploma issued by the county superin
tendent is that of being in possession
of a certificate which will admit the
owner to the state junior normal
school.
At a conference of the junior normal
school principals and superintendents
of the counties wherein said junior
normal schools are located, held at
Lincoln April 27, a motion was moved
and carried that the minimum en
trance requirement for admission to
the state junior normal schools shall
be a teacher’s certificate, or a certifi
cate from the county superintendent
that the applicant has completed the
eight grade course of study, or a certi
ficate from the city superintendent
or high school principal for the ad
mission to the high school, or the
presentation of evidence of other
equivalent academic work.
June 17, 1907, is the date of the
junior normal at O’Neill.

County Superintendent.
