Replies to Taxpayer.

MR. EDITOR:
 If you will allow me space in your valuable paper l will phdeav,r to an- swer an open letter" from Taxpayer, addressed to me in last weeks isssie. He asks why county warrants are now worth only fifty cents on the dol lar. when few years ago they were worth one hundred cents on the dollar. Various reasons might be assigned. b0t 1 will make a statement of the hnaD- cial condition as nearly as l can and .raxpayer" can draw his own conclu- sions.
 At the July settlement. 1893, the Outstanding Scrip was. ....... ........s 6S1 ss Issued since. .....- Iis4i 4i Total. sls.7S 2 The County revenue from the 5 mill

 Total si4.5 .545 $
 There is but little difference. as shown by the records. in fee bills filed by Esq. F. D. Boyle and N. E. Nelson. Esq. Boyle's bill. filed at the October term. 1898. amounts to S26l .25. and Esq. Nell son's bill. filed st the January term. 1894. amounts to S255.9O. His bill shows that the defendants took the pauper oath in two cases.
 I hope Taxpayer" will pardon me for not making more extended report, but my time has been sO occupied m getting ready for the Circuit Court that l have had but little opportunity to prepare statement.
 In conclusion will say to ''Taxpay- err or any other citizen of St. Francis county. if other information IS desired, the records are open, and am at your service. and will take pleasure tn giv- ing you any information in my power.
 Respectfully.
 F. F.LAUGHINenOUsE.
 Your issue of last week contains an item signed Taxpayer" While we all admit that public office IS a public trust, and the acts of all county officials should be rigidly looked into by any citl- zen or taxpayer, still l hold as there are several magistrates in this county, the gentleman should talk out in church, and call things by their proper names, lay the blame to the proper source, and not leave the public mind in doubt as to the guilty party.
 My records, books. and all papers connected with my office are open to taxpayers and other citizens for iHspec- ton, and 1 will take pleasure in show ing them to any One.whO thinks l have not done the clean thing as an official. Hence say Taxpayer" should have blamed the guilty. and not make the broad assertion that some of the mag istrates in this county were violating the law, and charging the county with costs in petty-criminal cases and mis- demeanOrs.
 One would judge from his article that he was prepared tO make good his assertion. If so, Jet him hew to the line. let the chips fall where they will. ," He would do me an act of kindness to state over his own signature just which one of the magistrates he alludes to. By so doing he wik greatly oblige, Your obedient servant,

years ago, on the arrival of Decoration

The stay-at-homes are sometimes
