LET THE FIGURES SPEAK.

If he could see beyond the narrow bounds
of partisaniSln. he would discover that taxes
have never been higher than under Repub-
lean rule, and that Democratic commission
ers have reduced them to the lowest posi-
bic figure to meet demands. Democrat
There is no use in bandying words: let
the taxpayers of the county read and COM
pare the figures for themselves. From 1861
to 1856. the Republicans were i'll power,
since 1851 the Democrats. Let the an
nual levies speak for themselves. In no
ticing these annual levies, particularly III
lS12-3-4. the taxpayer will remember
that the excessive amounts were explained
among other reasons, that We are max
ing extra lcvies to meet the county bond
ed debt" Now it turns out that, al
though more than the entire bonded debt
has been actually levied and collected,
more than onc-half of it is still outstand-
ing and unpaid.
