~ Taxpayers of Henry county, few
short months ago Geo. Russell abated large
amount of railroad taxes, and at all the meet
ings of county auditors to assess railroad
property for taxes he was the especial cham
pion of the railroads and favored the least
possible appraisement Of their property. At
the same time Russell's pockets were bulging
out with free railroad passes, upon which he
has been riding over this and other States,
but he has been very careful to charge the
amount up against the county for official
business Now, put these facts to-
gether and what other conclusion can
the people arrive at than that it is a
case of You tickle my elbow aud I'll scratch
your back! Honest taxpayers, this same
Geo. Russell is asking you to vote for him,
that he may continue his practice of deceiv-
ing you. Think we'll before you give your
support to him as against jacob Resh, who
would not be guilty of such a thing. Mr..
Resh is worthy of your support, whether you
be Republican or Democrat, and his major
ity should be almost unanimous, if honesty
and merit go for anything.

Senator Blaine's audacity in refusing
to send to Congress the State department
correspondence relating to the killing of
Gen. Barrundia by Guatemalian soldiers, on
an American vessel is unprecedented, and it
will be strange If Congress does not resent it
this winter. There have been several cases
in the past in which Presidents have declined
to send to Congress correspondence asked for
by resolution Of that body, but, they always
accompanied the declination with courteous
message explaining that it would be iniudi-
cious to make such information public. But
in this case neither Mr.. Harrison nor Mr..
MIR. Blaine took the trouble to explain why
they had ignored resolution Of Congress.
A few more Republican administrations and
truly the Empire will have come.

Another Of Russeil's Mis-
takes

In making up the tax duplicate for 1889
George Russell, the reform ~ Republican
auditor, omitted Tyler's Sd addition. and
never noticed his mistake until parties in that
addition came in to pay their taxes, and his
attention called to it by the treasurer. This
Is but one of the thousand mistakes made by
Russell. which conclusiyely go to show that
he is incapable of conducting the duties of
county auditor. Voters, give your supportto
Jacob Resh, who is in every way qualified to
conduct the Office, and who is strictly hon.
orable and honest.

fit the farmers or to earn this large sum OF

nothing-but stick to the Republican party

HAs election time draws nigh the Repub-
loan gang are again deserving the condition
ofHenry county, telling the people that it is
on the brink Of bankruptcy and foretelIins
all manner of calamities OF course the
election Of Republicans would avoid all this
destruction and save Henry coantyl This
gang, most Of whom are non taxpayers them
selves, Souid sacrifice the good credit Of
their own county in order to gain political
point. There is no honor or shame in them.
The financial condition of Henry county is
good, and has been for years. Our improve
ments are all first class and we believe have
cost the county less money than similar
improvements have cost in other counties.
The census bureau at Washington gives
Henry's bonded Indebtedness at S1G5,O0O.
Other counties where new court houses have
been built, and less expense for bridging
streams, are reported as follows: Hancock
county $a5S, 200; Hardin $245,oOO; Licking
sl59,O0O; Marion $4,000; Mercer s4o7,0oO;
Miami 1928, 900; Paulding $1s6, 600; Pickaway
$3l1, 200. All of these counties, including
Henry, have increased their population
in the last decade and are looked upon as
some of the progressive counties in the State.
These are facts and the gang know them to
be the truth. But to gain an advantage, to
get hold of a county teat, they stand ready to
befoul and smirsh their own home! For
shame! Honest voters of Henry county,
maintain your intelligence by sustaining the
party and men who have made your county
what it is-one of the best and most progress
slve counties in the State.
