EX-County Judge Wurzbach's card
a painful impression with the people.
The ex-Judge hastens to restore
certain public funds, which he
had misapplied, and as excuse pleads
ignorance of the law, and in abate-
ment of public censure sets up the
plea of philanthrOphy on his part, to.
wit: advancing money out of his own
pocket to keep the public schools go.
ing.
The people find little excuse In
Judge Wurzbach's explanation for
his grab at the school fund. 1t is part
of the history Of our county govern
ment that under Judge Wurzbach the
county judgeshlp became very lu-
crative place, and still remains so.
Ignorance of the law will hardly
serve as an excuse for a public official
who misapplies public funds. These
men whom the people elect to high
and responsible trust pink themselves
upon their fitness and ability to fill
public offices.
1t is q rare case when a public off
cial is found rho is satisfied with his
position,-he is always longing and
striving for something better; he urges
that his talents and ability entitle
him to promotion. To confess ig ignorance,
is confession of incapacity for any 20.
sition OF honor or trust.
Mayor Callaghan and Judge Wurz
bach were once congressional pOssI
bilities. Now also, there are none so
poor as to do them reverence.
1t is gratifying to read the an
nouncemeHt that the last batch Of
city bonds, $50, 600, have been sold at
a premium; it only proves that we
have not yet reached our limit OF
credit; that capitalists have conf
dence iD our ability to pay interest;
that no matter how extravaganza our
city administration may be, until our
bonded debt has reached certain
w
our credit will be good.
NO statement of the finances of the
city has been published for some time;
but in lieu thereof Alderman Gregory
has cordially invited the people to
come to the city hall and examine the
matter for themselves; this is too in
convenient. The people are reminded
OF the invitation of the spider to the
fly.
The council has, by resolution,
authorized the mayor to make mon tn
ly loans of the 5. \. national bank to
the extent of $4,000 per month, and
to pay per cent interest. These
loans are predicated upon the income
of the city for taxes during the cur
rent year; and these taxes depend
upon an ordinance that is believed
not to be worth the paper on which it
10 printed.
The signs of extravaganza, reckless
disregard for law, Indifference for
public opinion, are palmer than the
human footprints Robinson Crusoe
found In the sand. Recent events
may have a salutary effect upon the
conduct of our county and city of
ficials, but it is impossible to put a
stop to the extravaganza plain to be
seen in every direction; the criminal
feature may be abated.

Taere were returned to enumerators
2,49l $50 farms and homes occupied by
owners which were iocumbered by mort
cages. This includes some about which
the ennmerators made no report, and
which belong partly to class OF hired,
aud partly to class owned free, as we'll

due to the failure of the enumerstors. is
eliminated, it may be regarded as
approximately true that two and a

occupy and own incumbersd farms and
homes, and that ten and quarter

either hired or owoed free. The proper

NOT A NEW THING.

A mistaken idea prevails that the free
coinsgs of silver is new aud untried
thing. There is nothing more mistaken
or untrue.
Free coinsge Of silver in this country
was an existing fact from the establish
ment of the mint, in 1892, down to 1873.
not great while ago. and yet it seems
TO have been forgotten.
So, you see. all that we ask is to go
back to first principles. No novel. wild
untried, visionary project. Nothing OF
the kind. The people who cultivate and
circulate this delusion have missed the
mark by large majority.
For eighty years free coinage has
proved it's legitimacy and soundness.
Surely it has the first right-the right of
DO ession. And so, as against gold. it
has the right of eminent domain. If
either must have the cold shoulder gold
should be selected for this purpose.
Free coinsge ia not such terrible
thing, then, after all. The outcry raised
against it is Unauthorized by the facts
10 the case. II is purely mythical and
speculative. Worse than cheap dollars,
it ia cheap argument supplied for this
purpose, because there is nothing better.
Ia short, it has 10 solid foundation and
is good for nothing. National View.
