One of the charges made by Re-
publicans again the populist board
of county commissioners is unwar-
ranted extravaganza. When, as
every one knows, we had almost a
total crop failure, and when the
populists only had two members on
the board, the total poor fund ex-
pense for 1898 was only s1,334.69
and 1894 only SIS so while in
1895, when we had a good crop in
the county, the same poor fund ex-
pense was s3,60S.08. In 1898, the
county warrants drawn against the
general county funds amounted to
S22, 0l6.0 90 IN 1894, Sa5,421.O 90 {;
IN 1895, s29,434.00 in 1896 to
July l, S15,660 90
These figures which are taken
from the books of Day County prove
the charge conclusively to all fair
minded people. What all the items
are that 60 to make this additional
burden on the taxpayer would be
hard to find out. 1t would be a tire
some task to 90 over each and every
bill presented to and allowed by
his populist board of county COM
sioners and find out inst where each
and every one of these over charges
are that 60 to make up this greatly
Increased expense I; but, day by day,

where other people used to ask and
receive only s., and a large bill of
fees to a populist county Judge
where a serious doubt exists as to
the legality of paying the same.
And SO on, and on, and on, and on,
and that is the way this large in
crease in the expense of running
Day County has accumulated. There
can be no doubt about it.

A DIFFERENT PICTURE.
The Journal has become weary of
hearing and reading the praises OF
old Judge Bryan, father of the dem
ocratic candidate for president. lie
has been pictured as a saint, a mar
Of irreproachable character and of
deep religious convictions. 1t has
been said that he always opened
his court with prayer and closed it
with a benediction. As a matter OF
fact, Judge Bryan was an old
scoundrel, who put in his time talk
ing treason, organizing lodges of the
Knights of the Golden Circle, and
making speeches abusing the soldiers
and the government. He narrowly
escaped lynching several times at
the hands of the soldiers, and he
richly deserved hanging. He lived
in the hottest hotbed of secession
north of Mason & Dixon's line, and
he prided himself upon being a
leader of the K. O., C's, whose bust
ness it was to encourage treason and
murder soldiers. He was one of the
rankest and vilest of copperheads
that infested Wabash County, and
because of his superior abilities was
one of the most dangerous men in
the county. Knowing these things
as the journal does. the constant
singing of the virtues of the old
rascal has a tendency to make one
weary.-Lawrence Journal.

candidate, his organs, and his sup

BRYAN AND THE OLD SOLDIER.
AN UTTERANcE o "A AGO,
The next session o: congress will
have to wrestle with one deficiency
of $36,000,000 This is on account
of pensions. The appropriation for
pensions for the next year must not
be less than S150,O09,O00. 1t is
therefore easy arithmetic to perceive
that the appropriation that congress
must make for pensions next session
must aggregate not less than 1885,
100000.
This tremendous sum would in
itself be enough to run a reasonable
government. One would not com
plain if it were an honest debt, be-
cause it was never earned by any
act of patriotism or heroic service.
The government is held up and des-
