sh erman County in Good Shape.

Sherman county does not owe cent
of interest and there is not bond of
any kind due and unpaid, and has the
state taxes paid up in full But few
counties can say as much. B. F. Brown,
the outgoing treasurer, has always
paid the bonds and interests promptly
when due, and has kept his books up
in good shape, and there is no question
but what his successor, M. Rulon, will
make as good treasurer
The amount now on hand in the
county treasurer belongs to the various
funds of the county-districts town
ships, bond and bond interests funds
Some have mistaken idea in regard
to this and think it all belongs to the
county general fund Taxes have not
been paid as promptly as they would
had the times been less stringent. The
valuation was lowered 100000 and the
levy reduced more than ever before.
There is a little deficiency in the gen.
era1 fund, but the other funds have on
hand the aggregated sum of S9,750.52
The financial affairs of the county are
credit to the count y officers.

IGNORANCE IS BLISS.
And the Dark Horse Man Is Enjoying a
GoOdIy Share of BlissfuIness.

1t has been charged that the county commits
soners have been dealing out aid to Populsts with
lavish hand in preference TO persons of other
. parties. We do not know anything about the mat
nishing list of the names of those who have re-
ceived aid for the last years from each town
ship and the "politicks" OF each noted.-Dark
Horse.
Our learned friend of the Dark Horse
made ten strike when he penned the
above, but he overlooked one very i'm
portant fact which lets the wind out of
the story with a gleeful shrek When
he says he ''knows nothing about the
matter" he certainly builded better
than he knew and told the truth at the
same time.
For, if he had had as much reasoning
matter located between the rafters of
head piece as is possessed by the half
crazs tumble bug. he would never have
made such ridiculous break. Even
the school children know that the com
missioners could not deal out laid with
lavish hand" to anyone, be their "pol-
ticks" POpulistic, Democratic or Repub-
licanistic, because they have not the
power to do so, if they so wished. The
township trustee is the official who has
charge of the poor and who gives orders
for all supplies for the poor. The mer-
chant sends in his itemized bill. The
county commissioners only come in on
the play when they audit and pay these
bills. Surely ignorance is bliss.

trustees have filed bills for overseeing
