Court expenses are charges upon the
taxpayers which must be met, and for
which no party is responsible. With the
increase Of population and business both
civil and criminal cases gradually increase.
Twenty-four years ago the lovy for the
Circuit Court was only between two and
three thousand dollars, whereas the ex-
penses for the last year were S10,673.95.
In the last twelve years court charges
have exceeded those Of the twelve preced-
ing years about 100000 This item must
go to the credit Of the Democrats in the
comparison Of expenses made by the Sen
tiael, as must also be 100000 levied for
public schools, which expense the Repub-
licans did not have to meet These items

And yet this is not all. With the gen
eral progress of the county, roads and
bridges have to be provided for. The ex-
penscs for these are largely in excess of
what they we're twelve years ago, aud must
annually increase for some years TO come.
These items, also, like court expenses, are
charges which must be met, and are de-
manded by the people irrespective Of party.
The Sentinel, as the organ Of the Re
publican party in Carroll, points the peo-
pie to the expenses under their rule as a
record Of economy and honesty. They do
not propose 10 do any better now than they
did then, and upon that record they come
before the people and ask to be raised to
power. We have accepted their state.
meut, and by the analysis and comparisons
given above we have clearly demonstrated
that their administration Of affairs, If con
tinued on the plan they managed fol
twelve years previous 10 Democratic rule
and to which they now point the people al
a record Of their party, would have beer
much more expensive to the taxpayer
, than have been the Democrats. The an
