The County Superintendency and Aldrich Controversy
A reader challenges Aldrich's renomination for county superintendent citing alleged misreporting of funds from 1876 to 1879. The letter questions moral character and cites receipts records from the Institute fund and county treasurer accounts, arguing the stated sums fall short of expected registrations and state appropriations.
Aldrich's accounting questioned over state funds
The Enquirer notes Aldrich's reports may justify four years of receipts and expenditures but raises questions about missing monthly reports and funds drawn from the treasury. It argues public scrutiny is warranted at the polls while not accusing him of misappropriation, awaiting further proof.
