MONEY, BUT IN WRONG FUND Not Enough COash in School House f Fund for Comtractors. Although It has plenty of money in the treasury the Board of Education is oon- fronted with a deficleney in the fund out of which the cost of the new sehool build- ing at Oak street and Broadway must be peid. There 1s a balance of $5,000 ap- proximately due the contractors, while there is only a trifle over $3,000 in the school house fund. The finance commit- tee has decided to issue a warrant for $1,060.09, the balance due the contraotors and, this in_the ordinary course of business will draw interest until such time as there is monay in the school house fund to mast it. In the meantime there is a general balance of @bout $15,000 to the credit of the schools lying 1dle in the banks.

Advocates of the mun!sipal form of gov~ ernment are getting busy and there so far seems nothing to hinder them from get- ting the proposition before the people in ample time for the spring election. Eight petitions asking that the proposition be submitted to the electors of the city at « epecial election are now In circulation. The promoters are confident that they will be able to secure at least 1,500 names to the petition, which number {8 consid- erably more than is required by the stat- ute. The required number of signatures is ex- pected to be secured by the end of the present week, and as soon as the signa- tures are checked over the petitions will be flled with Mayor Maloney. In the event it is shown that the petitions bear the required number of signatures of bona fide electors the mayor will have no alternative but to call a special election, at which the proposition shall be sub- mitted. In the event of the proposition carrying the people will be called upon at the reg- ular municipal election In March to elect | officers under the new plan. The expense of circulating the petitions is being borne by a coterie of citizens who are anxious that the commission form of government should be given a trial in Council Bluffs. . Prof, O. J. McManus, one of the leaders in the movement, said last evening that the required number of signatures prob- bly would be obtained in time to file the petitions with the mayor befors the end of the week.

In‘an address filled with humor, sarcasm and hard facts, Willlajn Langham ot Cedar Raplds strongly {gned the pro- gram of introducing the study of agri- culture in the public schools. His address before the state horticulturists created something of a sensation, especially when he took President Seerley of the State Teachers' college to task for his speech before the National Rducational con- vention at Denver last summer. e state auditor has held up and re- fuses to draw warrants for bills of five members of the State Board of Dental ex- ominers, aggregating over $1,10. These are for per dlem and expenses advancid since last March. The reason is that they are paid out of a fund raised by fees and no fees have come in. Under the previous state auditor the\.warrants were drawn and the state trusted lo luck to get the money back. e Finances of State Falr, The annual report of Secretary Simpson of the Board of Agriculture showed that the net profits from the last state fair were about §28,00, though the balance on hand is only $4,00, as the beard anticipated re- cepits and used them in permanent Im- provements, Durlig the year permapent |improvements to the amount of $157,000 were added to the state falr grounds. Mr. Stmp- son renewed his recommendation as to the state providing a general publicity bureau to represent the interests of the state. W. R. Mellor of the Nebraska fair de- livered an address on fairs and expositions, in which he spoke especially of the edu- cational value of the same in raising the standard of farming and rural’ life. complimented the Iowa fair as the great- est of any in the union, and sald it was because of the situation of Iowa in the heart of the best agricultural region. Gov- ernor Carrell and others spok Prepare for H The State Board of Agriculture spent considerable time today preparing for the next state fair and especially laying plans for the home coming event next fall.
