The last two settlements fall in Mr.. Rus.
sells stime.-SionGl.
The above is "Interliner Georges" answer
to our charge that be is full of errors in his
official duties. It is no refutation Of our
charges at all for the above figures don't ap-
ply to errors made by the Auditor in making
up the duplicate. Our charge was that Rus.
sell has been making changes on the dupli-
Gates almost daily after they were in the
hands of the treasurer, contrary to law, by
erasing and substituting other figures. Seo-
tion No. 1898 plainly provides
The auditor shall, from time to time,
correct all errors which he discovers in the
tax-list and duplicate, either in the name OF
the person charged with taxes or assessments
the description of lands or other pre-, ,,erty, or
when property exempt from taxation has
been charged with tax, or in the amount OF
such taxes or assessments; but If the cor
rection is made after the duplicate is deliver
ed to the treasurer, 1t shall be made on the
margin of said list and duplicate, without
changing any name, description, or figure in
the duplicate as delivered, or in the original
tax-list, which shall always correspond ex-
actly with each other.
The above figures given in the Signal do
not comprise any errors made on the dupli-
Gates either by Mr.. Russell or MIR. Evers, but
the amounts are made up of taxes rebsted
or RENTED by order of the county commits
sioners, and the figures are only published in
this connection to mislead the people, which
is one Of "Interliner Georges" characteris-
tics.

wThe people well remember when "In-
terliner" George was making his campaign
two years ago that he took to task his prede
cessor for taking $3.50 for making the Dow
law duplicates, and gave them to understand
that he would do the same work for few
hours pay! Now what did George do, after
the people had been duped into placing him
in the auditors Office? Why, he took the
$3.50 for less work than his predecessor had
done for the same amount, and when taken
to task about the matter said any one was a
fool for taking less than the law gave him!
This is the reformer (?) ehl And it is upon
this principle that Russell is conducting the
entire business of his Office. When his term
is up. and he draws from the treasury all that
he has charged against the county the tax
payers will see that he has been the most ex-
pensive county auditor they have ever had,
and in repay he has given them set OF
records which is disgrace to any enlightened
community.

Tariff Points.

100 cents minus Al cents equals 50 cents
50 cents equals U. 8. dollar.
At cents is the duty imposed on U. 8. labor.
ers for the privilege of spending the Other
SO cents.
Every time you lay down a dollar fol-
something You or your family must have. Al
cents of it goes to protect the manufacturer
against your rights to buy where you can
get what you want the cheapest.
If Everybody but American manufacturers
we're fools, then those political pimp- -hirlings
might ram their tariff logic down our
throats, and convince us that it is the duty Of
80 and 99-100 per cent. of our citizens to rob
themselves of Al cents every time they spend
dollar, for the benefit of 1-1OO of per cent.
of their brethren.
The protection which our tariff affords to
laboring men is exemplifed in our coal and
iron districts. And the American farmer is
another good problem. The sum of all
which is the great avalanche of mortgage in
debteduess on real estate.
Our vast territory with its almost unlimited
natural resources; its millions of energetic
inhabitants; its highly improved labor auxil-
leries; its numerous skilled artisans, can
compete with any nation in the great markets
of the world. That man who says we can't
is hireling of the national money changers,
or what is equally as bad, is letting some one
else think for him.-Dayton Workman.

Will He Do 1t !?

We again urge upon Mr.. Webster. who is
examining the books in the auditors Office,
to go through the records made by "Inter-
liner George" From all appear anoes, &C.
counts and reports they are in bad shape, al
most bordering on criminality. Russell ID
vociferous in his denunciations of his Dem.
ocratic predecessors, but his cries to honest
and fair minded people sounds very much
like the gully shouting ''stop thief" There
may have been errors committed by Demo-
Gratis, they don't claim to be infallibls-Rus-
sell does. And they may have construed the
law different from which Mr.. Russell does.
Our Democratic officials always gave the
county the benefit of doubt-Russell gives
it to the State. This seems to be the only
difference. But, in addition, "Interliner
George" has been guilty of more grave and
serious errors in the short time he has been
in Office than any predecessor ever commit
ted during his two terms of Office. Mr.. Web
ster will be direlect in his duty if he fails to
investigate "Interliner George" Both be-
ing Republicans, it is safe TO say no such in
vestigation will be made. That would be
placing the shoe on the other foot, and
putting Russell in his true light.

"a The peopleare justly indignant over the
unnecessary expense George Russell is put.
ting the county to by having a stranger i'm
ported into the county to nose over their own
affairs. This includes many of those who
were fooled into signing Russell's petition to
the State Auditor. The outrage is more
glaring when it is known that the Russell
clicque had the Republican Legislature, on
the last day Of its session, pass the law which
gave the State Auditor such power, and it was
intended to meet slippery Georges case, and
would be a grand club to hang over every
Democratic county in the STATED But the
outrage is still more damnable when it is
known that Russell promised the people he
would do the thing himself-show up Demo-
cratic rascality. He quickly found out that
there was no rascality to show up, and he at
last hit upon the plan he snow pursuing. He
has deceived the people all the way through,
and to-day he stands convicted as the greatest
living fraud the county possesses. The coun-
ty will have big bill of expense to pay,
without one redeeming feature in favor of
the people-unless they look upon paying
for Russell's campaign privilege.

gin the congressional elections of 1883
Ohio cast 416,054 Republican votes and $685.
455 Democratic votes, a Republican majority
Of only 1853, yet 80 skillfully had the Re-
publican Legislature gerrymandered the
district that they elected sixteen of the
twenty -one Congressmen-that is to say, the
counties were so grouped that the Republi-
cans elected a member Of Congress for every
$4,000 voters, while it required 1921 Demo-
cratic votes to elect Democratic member.
And vet they sQueal because the present
Democratic Legislature proposes to even up

wanamaker's Postal Telegraph

A general interest is being taken by the
people in the present movement for tele-
graph system to be controlled by the Govern
ment Postal Department. Postmaster
General Wanamaker has formulated plan
and presented it to the congressional COM
mittee on telegraphs, and it is about as fol-
lows:
"He demands that congress authorize him
to contract with responsible persons who will
undertake to connect by wire places at which
the free delivery system now exists, these
places to be known as the postal Telegraph
stations, 1t is not asked, as has been as
sumed, that con gress shall build telegraph
system, or materially increrse the list Of pos
tai employees, but rather that it shall enable
the department to lease for a term of ten
years, lines already built, or to be built, by a
corporation formed for that purpose. His
desire is to procure for the transmission OF
postal messages, such facilities between cities
enjoying free delivery service as newspapers
now possess. By dropping into q mail boz
letter or card bearing the requisite amount
OF stamps, anyone, under the proposed ar.
rangement could, without further trouble,
have message sent by telegraph to any point
to which the lease line extended, and have il
delivered there by letter carrier in the usual

manner. BY adding The ten-cent. special
delivery stamp 10 the message. he could Sc
cure immediate delivery. II is not designed
TO restrict the right Of telegraph companies
10 do the business they now do, or 10 COM
pete with them, but 10 create new business,
and, at the same time, supply deficiency in
the means Of communication at present ct
the command OF the masses of the people.
Postal kilograms would be transmitted in the
order Of fling, except In certain specified
cases. As soon as practicable, the sending Of
orders for money BY telegraph TO the amount
OF 500 and under, would be added 10 the ex-
isting postal money ordering business. The
charge for postal telegram within any State
Is not TO exceed ten cents for message Of
twenty words, nor twenty-five cents for dis
tances under 200 miles, nor fifty cents for
any greater distance. For postal telegram
money orders, the fee would not exceed twice
the rates now charged for money orders sent
by mail in addition to the charge for the
postal telegram"

where there was abouta dozen guests. She
wore iewelled ring, unique and valuable,

The ring was passed around the board, and
all this time lively conversation on matters
was in progress. Mrs. Brice forgot all aboni

has never seen that ring since. There must
have been some curious persons at that din

lB Mansfield Shield: The dog that sneaks
back to lick the hand that struck him is VIC
ious compared to the meekness of that
farmer who labors the whole year round,
and only takes day of to shout for the
grand old party. and then walks to the polls,
and by his vote approves the course OF those
who have been impoverishing him these
twenty years. A late writer estimates that
of the average IS per cent. tariff the farmer
receives the benefit of less than per cent !,
the balance going to the manufacturer. Is
it any wonder that the farmer is beginning to
wake from his slumbers, and to cry in the
