the guiss Of cold dog Tray" to shield
himself. we think, will appear thin
ruse to sensible men,. His own adj
mission shows that we called atten-
ton to the fact Immediately upon its
coming to our knowledge. and the
presidentsand members Of the police
jury are Witnesses to that fact We
stated to the treasurer at the time
that the president had drawn war;
rant for us on the printers fund for
$6 80 too much, and that We would
not take The money if we did not
think we were entitled to il by rea-
son Of 81 claim we held agaist the

tiugent fund was swept dry i we did
not take the Sc 80 We would simply
get nothing: THE 81 was allowed
for printing licenses Tor the tax-col-
lector and summons for the grand
jury, and constitutes the sum total of
our prerequisites" for the year, So
much by way Of explaining how the
printeEf4conciles his conscience.
He refers to an ordinance requir-
ing him to distribute all the money
he receives to the different funds by
stipulated pro rato scale. We defy
any one to show any authority in
that ordinance authorizing the treas
urer to apply the funds Of one year
TO pay the indebtedness Of another.
Bat the treasureris main forte is
logic. Because the ordinance which
requires him TO make d consolidated
report at each April meeting was not
passed bat one year ago. therefore
our assertion that no such report
had been made in two years has no
foundation to rest uponi It ought
- -~.I." :. "a.
to occur to such q sound reasoner
perhaps that ordinance was passed in
order to require somebody to per-
form what the police jury thought
they had REASONABLE right to ex-
pect at least once year.
Another strong hold of our corre-
spondent is s'iggers." He can make
them exceedingly large where be is
concerned, and correspondiugly little
for another man. Two hundred dol
lars simply for printing the pro-
csedings Of the police jury" would
be a big thing, spre enough, How
ever. that happens to be less than
half required Of the printer, Two
half-column venire lists occupy our
columns for 100 days during each
year, the sheriff can have an election
notice aud two or three other little
advertisements inserted for so OF 60
days as the case may be. the assessor
comes in for three or four advertise
ments. the president Of the police ju-
ry fires off six or eight more. then
the clerk Of the police jury comes in
for 800 or 400 blanks, such Is notices
Of appointment and commissions for
road apportioners. road overseers.
! election commissioners. etc. It is
but fair to suppose the treasurer has
come equally near the mark in bis
estimate Of how much tn sheriff and
others have earned. His 6gurss may
apply to the immense mental strain
liz takes to keep those books.
