' Ed. HaruiLicAB i With roar peimissloa. I woaldliketoB.sk In behalf of many Interested tax-payers, to what extent School Directors can eeioeel their oflUial transactions from the people, and if tax -pay era bar no rights which School Doarua are now no to respect r Admitting that tne rank and Die of toe A mart' can people are beeomlng rather profuse in their laqmrias as te now toeir emeia manage we aflairs of government, and tbua, by pressing In quiry too far, tostttate Investigation, which la soma eases honorably aeqoit mra acting in obmbj eanacUies from grosa enarges of official corrup tion, whilst im ether instances (tbo most aameroas) they have sueeeoded in bringing to I lent the moat gigantic and wholesale frauds in tba embtn la ment of faode Intrusted to their care, at well as usurped power and nsaumed authority, official mismanagement has become the role and not tba exception ia eo many depart moots of our national, State, and municipal government that the people ara aroused to a aense of their doty, and, whilst ws may aondema thaae breaches of trust and practices so criminal, unbecoming and disgraceful among people who boast ef their intelligence aad national integrity, we mult admit oar utter neg lect of duty and Indlflerence lo our Individual prosperity by failing to correct every abuse which comea to our notice let it be in the departments of government or In oar local School Board. Aa el 1 1 tens wa have a right to hold every man la official capacity to a strict accountability. The law gorerning men In places of publie trust baa wieeiy prerMed g remedy ea well aa a previa live in eases of official miimanagement, and thrown around the oitlaen a safeguard against official de ception, by submitting every man's public acta to ine einctest scrutiny, ana requiring omciais to render an aeeount of their transections to the publie. Reports and statements must be published ia oruer te bring before tne people every tact con nected with the management of the various de partment!. n no case is tne law mora conalse and las pea-, ally for Its violation mora speedy and efffrvlual, thin la the ease of School Hoards who fail to comply with its provisions. Ifa enforcement Is not o umbered wilb a raal amount of legal machin ery, necessitating a slow and costly process. And 1 may add la no other ease have ouetaie so Wan tonly and negligently kept the people in Ignor ance of tbelr financial operations as la tha par ticular ease or the Clearfield School Hoard. It la now three years since they engaged In an enter prise urtilrh, It was promised, would be of Infinite value to tne eitisen, and cost comparatively nine to tue tax payer, lo me ciusen, u was an enter prise to be encouraged, supported and appreciated : to the Directors it was worthy their aealous efforts to secure Its completion ; and to the school-boy, It was one worthy bis admiration and determined eflort to make available the benefits It would aoa fer. Rot the moreitonsidsrate man, whose capaci ty enabled him to penetrate tba future, stood na mured whilst tbe most extravagant encomiums and eulogies were lavished upon, those who, from long experience, could see n good investment la the enterprise, and whose solicitude lor the welfare oi einers waa oniy secondary in importance, itis lullcltudc was for settlement day, when all these lavish expenditures and boasted bequests would assutns tbe form of a double-entry account, with a rapidly accumulating balance each year added to tba debtor side. It ia a vexed question to-day with many of aa to know who was enrreot, aad wa suppose the School Board are tha only persons having a knowledge of the true condition ef things aa they exist And I would respectfully suggest, aa tbay have failed to eomply with the law ay publishing an M annual statement" far years back, tbey should at least give te tba public a tree and fnU statement of the reeonreaa and liabilities ef the Clearfield School District from U7.1 to I8T0 in clusive, as there ara some conflicting rumors which If net corrected may place them la a fatoa positloe before the people. If, for reasons best kaowa to yourselves, yoa cannot grant this reasonable request, please ex- (laln tbe following : In your report to tbe School )epartment for 1871, yoa claim a balsnea$l, 063.31 as resources. In your report to the Dspart menl for 1876, you show a balance Of $441.63 aa your total liabilities.
