Analysis Of Report. State Auditor S.G. Iverson has made a public statement cer- tified under his hand and official seal in which he completely re- futes the allegations made by public examiner S.T. Johnson against R. C. Dunn, the republi can candidate for governor, charging that when Mr. Dunn was state auditor the state was the loser, owing to Mr. Dunn’s failure to enfore the law relat- ing to the sale of timbar and tim- ber trespass. This statement has been made under the direet and personal supervision of the state auditor, S. G. Iverson, who has checked every item and state- ment and is absolutely correct, as shown by the books and re- cords of the stateauditor’s office. It shows that the statements made by the public examiner are faiseand untrue and that his assumptions and conclusions are unwarranted and misleading in every particular. It shows that the public examiner is entirely ignorant of the timber and the state’s timber business in par- ticular as is shown by the false construction he places upon terms in common use in the lum- ber industry. For instance, he pretends to believe, and would have the public understand that the term ‘new cutting” moniy used by timbex cruisers to designate timber which has never been cut, means that such timber has been cut or partially cut, He also pretends to believe and attempts to convey the im- pression, that when a state cruis- er, after making an examination of state timber land, reports “cutting on south and east.” that this means that the timber on the state land has been cut on the eastand south, when asa fact such a report means what it says, namely, that timber on the lands adjoining the state lands on the east and south, had been cut, It is stated by employes in the state auditor’s office that the meanings of these terms were ex- plained to the publi¢ examiner’s assistants but that they disre- garded all- information and ex- planation. COMPARISON IS INVITED. Any citizen possessed of ordi- nary intelligence is invited to take the certified statement of State Auditor S. G. Iverson printed below and compare it, item by item. with the published report of the public examiner, and by so doing can satisfy him- self of the utter falsity of the statements made by the public examiner, For the benefit of citizens who have not the time to make a complete comparison as sug- gested, abteflbion isdrawn to a few cases illustrative of the false- hood and misrepresentation of the public examiner’s report. The items can be identified in the state auditor’s certified state- ment and in the public exami- ner’s report by the descript,iori also business in general com- of the land which precedes each itéi. ; mld]h Am&mwfimfi Roosevelt vs Parker busy the whole yeai wearing them out.

Take the first item™in the pub- lic examiner’s report which says that $17,225, for pine cut on sec- tion 16 55-22 was not paid. State Auditor Iverson certifies that this money was paid into the state treasury on August 13, 1894 and thatthe pineland investi- gating committee reported the collection of this money to the state legislature, filing its report with the governor on Dec, 21, 1894. Sections 33-58-19. and 36-59-19 the second item in the public ex- aminer’s report and the second and third items in the state au- ditor’s statement, is also cited to show the.falsity of the public ex- aminer’s statements. He alleges that no effort was made to collect state for timber cut from this land. The state auditor certifies State Auditor Dunn assumed the timber had been shipped out of the state, State Auditor Iver- son also certifies that Mr. Dunn placed thecollection of the money for this trespass in the hands of the proper state officials, namely, the state treasurer and the attor- ney-general and that they fol- lowed the timber to Cleveland. Ohio, and that the attorney gen- eral eollected $2,500, which was turned into the treasury, but was unable to collect any more as the tresspasser was a bank- rupt and his bondsmen were fi- nancially irresponsible. ANOTHER SAMPLE OF MISREPRE- . SENTATION. 16-55-8 The public examiner among other mis.cading and false statements says cruiser McKen- zie reported that the section had been cut south and west and that no payments had been made be- canse of this cutting. State Au- ditor Iverson certifies that cruis- er McKenzie_reported that the timber was- being cut on the lands adjoining this section of state land and that there had not been any cutting on the state land. 16-52-12, Public examiner re- ports that cruiser McKenzie made an estimate of the timber on this land and reported that there had been cutting done on this land but the records do not show who did this alleged cutting or how much was cut. State Auditor Iverson eertifies that the exact language of cruiser Mc- Kenzie’s report was this: “New cutting,” which means that the done, that anything was ever cuton this section, and the public ex- aminer’s statement isan abso- lute falsehood. 86 58-12. The public examiner makes a similar false statement regarding this section. He says the cruiser reported “that there were ‘new cuttings’ and that he estimated the amount of timber still standing at 4,000,000, and he further alleges that the re- cords show no uttempf, to collect for these new cuttings and al-! timber had never been cut into and that no cutting had been & The cruiser does not say | though the cruiser reported 4,000,000 of timber, all the tim- ber on this land was sold ata lump sum of §700 and with either the densest stupidity or malice the public examiner asks: ‘The query is: what became of the 4,000,000 feet?”” State Auditor Iverson certifies that cruiser McKenzie never made an esti- mate or report that there was 4,000,000 feet of timber on this land, but that thereis an estimate of 4,000,000 feet on section 16 in the same town. He also certifies as to what timber was sold, cut and paid for on this land. The foregoing are a few of the first cases in the public examin- er’s report and it is not necessary to weary the public with citing any others as they are all alike throughout the entire list. The the balance of the money due the aboye samples are not exceptional ,cases but every item of Public | _ “Exa.mmer Johnson’s report is that the’ cutting was done before! shown by the cer tified statement of State Auditor Ivérson to be | office, for the most part, and that just zs false and full of gross misrepresentation, a fact which can be proved by comparison. {Judge Spooner in this city is a simple tribute to the high esteem in which the judge is held in his home town. Judge Spooner, thuogh unopposed, polled almost as heavy a vote as that cast for all the candidates for the most hotly contested place on the ticket.
