Statement can b, Published, even as.
Stunning that it will inlIy and sa isluc-
torily explain the finances Of the coun-
", or be placed in the hands Of every

the county under the refurmatory laws
and the people have u right to demand
that their workings Shall be made
known to them, to the end that they
may be upheld if good and amended or
repealed if bad.
Intimations, hints and open charges
have been made TO the effect that in
spite Of a looping off Ct expenses in
some directions, there has been an &C
tual increase in the expense Of the
county and That full showing of the
figures will prove it.
If such charges are untrue. it should
be qualification to those unjustly in
dictcd, to dlsprove them, every one, but
true or untrue, they have no right to
withhold a statement if the people
demand it. As it would make most
interesting reading, we doubt not that
every newspaper in the county would
gladly give it space, gratis and we sug-
gest to the gentlemen of the Boards Of
County Commissioners and Charities
and Corrections that they give them an
opportunity to place it before their
readers 1T the earliest possible date.

that both desire to gair the point at
issue by u show of strength rather than
by an exercise Of it.
There are excellent reasons why both
England ard Russia should desire to
rouse martial spirit and the patriot
ism of their people. England needs
have some method Of diverting atton-
ton from her inglor:ous Egyptian cam
paign, while Nihilism and court and
class intrigue has so shaken up the
governmental machinery Of Russia that
it needs some deep feeling such as can
only be cngcndered by threatened
foreign war, to render compact and
unity rapidly divergent influences.
Thus far does the promise AMI threat
of war inure to the direct benefit of
both powers and they will both in

to an extent that neither would dare,

England's Indian subjects is not so pa

War has not vet been declared, al
though extremists have had it daily
