Publish the Statement.

We again call upon our Town

that elected it, to publish full and
explicit statement and exhibit OK the
moneys received into the treasury

derived, and the purposes for which

notorious fact that the old republi-
con council. at the time It's success
sor was chosen last March, Was In
debt for contingent expenses nearly
ol.4OO. On the 9Th OF March, Mr..
Barker drew out OF tho county treas
uyv $1,000 which had been collected
for. and belonged to the corpol alton
fund. This he hal reduced to 81 80
when he turned the funds over to his
successor, leaving large balance OF
unpaid contingent deots. to be pro-
vided for. We have no reason to
doubt but Mr. Barker paid this
money out properly upon orders
drawn against 1t, but the people
have > right to know the use to
which the money isput, that f. takar
