the bench he appointed George SeaveI
clerk at $500 year. and Henry Nc
Coy, a deputy, at S2,4OOa year, when
there WAS SO little work for the deputy
that for several months after his ap
pointment as deputy clerk he continued
in the employ of the ID. Il Il. q. r. r
Co., where he was drawing a salary OF
$l25 a month. Besides these two clerks
there has been u lady assistant con
tinuously employed at "A salary, it is
said OF $40 per month. This lady as
sistant fully earns her salary though
for rs matter OF fact she does more
work than both OF the others combined
1t will thus be seen that the clerica
work Of the district court cost the tax
payers g., 800 year, and this in order
to enable Judge Elwell to pay his
political debts. During the Worlds
fair at Chicago, Henry Mccoy wat
absent for one month and when the
county commissioners wanted to deduct
one months salary from his pay they
received a note from Judge Elwell say
ing that Mr.. Mccoy was employed by
the year and was entitled to his full
salary of 2,4OO without any deduction
Thereupon the commissioners paid il
urder protest.
1t is notorious that Clerk Seaver is
utterly incompetent to perform the
duties of his office. 1t is well known
that competent deputy clerk could
be obtained for one-half OF the salary
paid to Mccoy, and that, excepting in
times of unusual pressure, one compe
tent clerk, with one assistant, could
easily do all work of the office.
1t is well understood that the election
OF Elwell and Dixon, or either OF them
means the retention in office OF Seaver
and Mccoy; for to make n change in
clerks the action of the court is re
quired, and that means both judges.
The election of the Independent judicial
ticket of Devine and Voorhees, fol
judges and Sabin for district attorney
would mean saving OF thousands of dol
lars per year to the taxpayers of this

The Bessemer indicator., 1894-10-27

SOME OF the friends of the popular
republican judicial ticket who have
been in politics long enough to know
better. are making loud complaint
against dragging a mans character into
politics. That old gag is played out.
To drag private mans unfavorablc
character into politics is one thing, and
to drag public mans unfavorable
private character into politics is quite
a different thing altogether. When a
man asks the people to place him in an
official position. and especially in no i'm
portant position as that of district
judge, they have an unquestionable
right to know who he is and what he
is and by what sort OF influences he
is surrounded. His private character
then becomes public property that the
people may know the merits of the man.
That is too plain for argument and no
honorable man can or will take ex-
ception to it. The good sense Of the
people at large can be relied upon to sit
in just judgment upon all candidates for
judicial honors.
