long Republicans, until it but-
ted itself out of the party. We
hardly expected to see our
words verified so soon but it
is now an actual fact that the
Republican is trying to cram
the most Objectionable Demo-
crat in Pike county, 7. W. Hig,
gins, down the throats of the
Republicans, for Representa-
tive, and at the same time It is
running a Democrat for Com
missioner, and looking for
Democrats who are mean
enough to run on that ticket
for the offices OF Treasurer and
Coroner. That's a sweet seen,
ted movement. Tom. Higgins
would be a pretty man to rep.
resent anybody, much less the
Republicans of Pike county,
But Tom. will represent no
body-not even Higgins; the
Republicans of the county
who know Higgins, and care
more for the principles OF the
party than they do for a mess
of Auditors printing will not

are informed that it will get, as
it certainly deserves, almost

that their names are on the
ticket before it is deposited in

Facts and Figures.

A late number of the Stand
ard has an array of figures pur-
porting to give the costs Of. courts
in Jackson county for which it
holds Judge Plyley responsible.
If the Standard had run few
years farther back 1t might have
included the building of the Court
House, and if it had really want
ed to make the figures imposing
it should have included the prin-
ter's fees also. Either Of these
items are just as legitcmatciy
the expense Of the Court as those
items given, which are five in
number-Sheriff, Petit Jurors,
Grand Jurors, witnesses before
Grand Jury, witnesses before
Court.
Mr.. Macklcy is a lawyer,
ought to know, and does know,
that the Sherilf's fees are fixed
by law, and comes from serv.
ing such papersas the law di-
rects shall be served, The
number of witnesses is not de.
tel mined by the Court, but by
the plaintiffs and defendants.
The Jury's fees are regulated
by law. The Grand Jury is a
separate and distinct body,
whose fees and duties are reg.
ulated by law, which rises and
sits upon its own motion, and
is indepenent of the Court, ex
cept to receive the charge ot
the Judge and report to him
when it closes its labors.
The costs thus far are deter
mined by matters which are
beyond the control of the
Court. But if the Court de-
lays its business either by not
knowing how to push it, or by
holding sessions of from four
to siz hours per day, it can
thus increase the costs to a
fearful extent. We challenged
the Standard to test this mat
ter OF costs by sending one OF
Harper's friends, with one OF
Plyley's friends, to examine
the dockets of all the Courts
in Southern Ohio, and make a
joint report thereon IN plain,
unmistakable figures. They de
cllned such a test, and for our
own satisfaction, as we'll as for
the information of the people
