A Great Scandal.

Those who have visited the Waco
Showcase and Furniture factory, at
No. 72o Austin avenue, say it is a
great scandal for any family to be
without elegant furniture when it
can be bought SO cheap at that place
and of their own make.

Why were the populists resolutions
put out in print? Was it to give all
men who read them an opportunity
to weigh and consider? Assuming
they were, let us say that in consid-
ering the salaries of state officer, the
figures as they are printed are mis-
leading whether purposely or not is
open for conjecture. The salaries of
the following state officers are rs fol-
lows: Governor, SO, 900 per annum !;
secretary of state, 81, 800; auditor,
81, 500; treasurer, 81, 600; school
superintendent, 81, 500; attorney gen
eral, so, 600. Now, in the face of
these figures, the populists recomend
that they I've cut down so per cent,
making the salary of the state school
superintendent, for instance, $3.50 per
year. Fellow citizens, think of the
premium of $3.50 per annum put upon
the qualifications of a man capable
of occupying that office. Would
not such salary entice young men to
study and endeavor to qualify them
selves for such positions? Reduce
the salaries of officers whose positions
require them to be well educated and
you reduce the number of aspirants
proportionately as well as creating at
The same time shadow of ignorance
which will hover around the fire side
as serious but positive consequence
of such unreasonable legislation. 1t
would seem that our county officers
were not paid one cent too much fol
their services, and according to the
figures set forth in the populist reso-
lutions, the officers of Washington
county, being capable and trusty, as
they have proven, do not receive 6
cent in excess of their work. You
will find out that when you get officers
who understand their business, anC
are qualified, and fulfill their duties
promptly, they will demand com
pensation equal to the amount o.
labor performed, which you must also
agree is just and equitable. If you
cut the salaries of county and stat
officers, so they are unreasonable,
will place us in similar position a

. if applicable to our salaried officers
