JAMES NJ. McLELLAN,

Mr. FISHER: | had not intended to
take an active part in this canvass, but
ny attention has been called to aUsrt;-
cle in the Dispatch Of the 10,h inst.
signed Tax Payer" which calls for q
brief notice from me.
The statement is made that "Mr. Lay
paid in $50, ard that the County Clerk
pulled S25 circus license out of his
pocket a few days ago AMI paid in Ito
the Treasurer saying ho had forgotten
1t until now." The Editor Of the Dis
patch, in his comments, says that the
S25 above mentioned was all that had
been previously received into the treas,
ury on that account, during the term of
the present treasurer, Mr.. Cannon. He
also says the constable, Mr.. Lay, told
him tina, he did not collect the tax for the
side shows, for tho reason that he could
not procure blank licenses.
Now, what l have to say in regard to
the money paid into the treasury is this :
Mr. Cannon was right in saying that the
s25 was all the money paid in, for the
reason that it was every cent that had
been collected during his term cf Office
In regard to the blank licenses spoken OF
by Mr., Lay, he is in error when he says
he could not procure them, IIo came to
my Office and got three blank licenses
June 29th, the morning Of the show, and
returned them all on the 1st day of July
Did Mr.. Lay tell the Editor Of the
Dispatch what he did with the $40 excess
in change collected for licenses from the
show, and which he never paid back
also, tlfs 25 cents extra fee charged for
collecting the license? All Of which he
bOasted about. as having done a sharp
trick. May it not have been that Mr.
Lay collected this $40 for the side show
and forgot to pay it in to the treasurer ?
| cannot close this article without call,
ing your attention to report that is
being very iudustriOusly circslated by
John r. Knox, Elias aud r. Il. Norton,
which is intended to advance the interest
Of their favorite candidates in the pres
cut campaign, and which l pronounce
to bs unquai6sdly false in every partic
ula'. 1t i' this: They say there is
$4,000 school money missing. How,
when, " whore, they do not pretend to
say. This is the old game that was at.
sompted two years ago, just before the
election and which so signally failed.
Now, Mr.. Editor, I think it is tn.
duty Of the County Court to appoint a
committee to Investigate this charge, and
AshnlI insist os their doing SO.

OBITUARY..

GRIMES-Sistcr Sarah Grimes was born Feb
ruary %, 1911. in Lincoln county, NO.; was mar
red to T. II. Grimes, December 90; 1928, joined
the Methodist church about 1860 or 1861, and
died May 3, 1872.
1t is seen from tho above dates that death has
come us in its mldest, Its most lovcy form. The
death of the young is the cruel frost nppng the
rose in the bud before its beauty has been un-
folded to our view or its fragrahce has scented
tho alr. The death of the middle aged is the
merciless storm sweeping with fury over hill and
dale, forest and field, striking terror to tie heart
of man and beast, leaving only terrible destruc-
tion in its holrid train Not so the death of the
aged. Their death is the removing of those whose
beauty has faded and whose fragrance has been
spent, that it may be transplantcd in the para
disc of God, where it may bloom not only with
infinitely increased, but still increasing and
never fading beauty. 1t is the reaper of Heaven
gathering the golden harvest that is bowing
down with ripeness, into the stOrehouse of God,
We seldom regret to see the sun setting; we even
watch with delight bis departing rays; we feel
that his course is run, his work is done. So it is
with the death of the aged. We miss them it is
true oh, yes, it is sad to say farewell. The eye
grows dim with tears as we look for tho last time
upon their lovely forms. But when we remem
ber the faltering steps, the trembling nerve, We
yield to the event not as to an insupportable
lamity, but as to an arrangement OF an all-wis
Providence. IT'S meet, tits mercy, that the worn
out servant Of God should find rest in the peace
full quiet of the tomb. Brother, sister, compan :
ion, child, our loved one is net lost, she is only
gone before. Let this be our consolation, and
let it be ours by repen tance and faith to seek Mt
the foot of the cross thar preparation that will
enable us to meet her with Joy when she awakes
in the likeness of Jesus Let us lift up the eye
of faith and view her clothed in white raiment
at the right hand of God
