rnE ONLY WAY.


The State Treasurer contest is raging
pretty ferceIy already and the partisans of
the opposing candidates are telling ugly sto-
ries, that make honest men quito doubtful
if any Of them are fit for the place. The
salary fixed by law foF the Treasurer is
sl700, yet the friends Of the respective can
didates each accuse the other as well as pre-
ceding candidates Of having spent from
sc, 900 to $50,0Q0 for the purpose of Sc
curing the election. IF such things are
done, and no one debts but that they have
been done more than once, it is proof con-
elusive that the Office is grieyousy abused
and the public fluids deliberately misused.
Now in the first place no man who has ever
made use of money for obtaining the Office
should receive the vote of any honest man.
But we have little hope of seeing any very
startling exhibition Of spartan virtue ike
this in either party. The next, and abso-
lutely necessary thing to be done is to in
crease the salary to an amount sufficient to
remuuerate a good, honest and able man for
giving his attention to the work and then
vigorously enforce the law, which at present
is dead letter on the statute books, pun
isbing any use Of the public funds for pri-
vate purposes. If there are any defects in
this law, let them be remedied and then let
US have it vigorously enforced. The Re
publican party has done ard is now doing
nobly 10 the work Of retrenehment and re-
form, but it still has much to do. The
Treasurers have been dereIiet We have no
doubt; they have abused their trusts and
have been liable to indictment and punish
ment-why were they not punished? Where
we're the Auditor and Attorney Generals
Why were they not about their duty ferret
ing out the abuse and prosecuting the Grim
ioal Is it not The duty of these officers to
attend to matters of this kind? Has the
magic wand of the Croesus of the Treasu-
~ blinded the cerberus that should guard
our treasures If but one officer were guilty
and all the others we're active and yigilant,
the guilty one would soon be found out and
exposed. This Treasury business impera-
lively demands reform. 1t is true we have
done far better than the Democracy in the
management OF the finances, but the leaks
by which they drained the Treasury are not
all stopped yet. We rejoice at and are
proud ef what the Republican party has
done for cur State, but We none the less de-
maud that sne shall DO more Let every
newspaper in the State, that is not bought
up by the ing, demand reform in this mat
ter and let every community hold its repre-
sentative responsible We want positive
