County Treasurer,s Report.

The trial balance OF Treasurer Lewis
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1898,
showed $63, 640.29 in his hands.
The school fund has cash balance Of
$40, 781.55, and the road fund balance
OF Sic, 33S.26, which indicate that num-
Der OF the school and road districts are in
good financial condition. The county
general fund is overdrawn 81 ,194 90, but
Mr.. Lewis says there are ample funds in
deposit account to offset this everdraft.
Upon some adjustment being made with
the county attorney and ex-county attor-
ney in the matter OF fees in delinquent
tax cases, and the funds in the deposit
account being segregated, he estimates
that $4,000 will be passed to the credit of
the county fund.
The cash balance Of $63, 64O. 20 now in
the treasury will in the ordinary course
of business rapidly decrease between now
and January next.

Some Causes FOR divorce

Commissioner of Labor Carroll D.
Wright knows how to relieve pages of
statistics by humor, says the Washington
News. In his volume on Marriage and
Divorce" 1,O75 pages, he has set forth
sixty-nine causes for wives and thirty for
husbands for being granted divorces in
the various courts of the country.
One wife was freed from the bonds Of
matrimony because her husband came
home at ten O'Clock at night and kept
her awake talking.
Another wife was helped out by the
court because her husband did not wash
himself.
"My husband cut off my bangs by
force" moved the heart of judge to
grant another wife absolute divorce.
The mental suffering of a wife, because
her husband had never offered to take
her out riding, was pacified only by di-
vorce.
The causes for granting divorces to
husbands are just as ludicrous.
One husband was beaten by his wife
until he was bruised and sore.
Another husband, not responding to
the summons " to get out of bed" was
pulled out by his whiskers.
One husband was made to shiver with
cold in bed because his spouse pulled the
bed-covers off.
Another husband suffered mental an
guish because his wife BACKED both his
ewes with her shoe heel.

This would be just the time to build
the railroad, and there is no better way
OF finding out if they mean business than
that suggested in the letter Of Samuel
Benn to Mayor Little, which is printed
below.
Every one can give something. The
man who can afford to give little cash,
but can not get away from his business,
can have his. money go to help pay the
actual living expenses Of the men who do
the work. If it is aquestion Of lots for
labor. there is not property owner in
Aberdeen but can afford to give lot.
Let lis do everything in our power to test
the good faith of the railroad people,
then if they don't build, We can tell them
with some degree of satisfaction to go
to-Ocosta.
