MIR. EDGAR RREwTsER

'hi1AA bC ictQ COliCCbCQ uDblt HIS Ee- joinder.
 MIR. EDGAR BREwTsER
 was then introduced. It was the first time he had ever been a eandi- date, he declared, and the first time he ever undertook to make speech. He had served for two years as chief deputy under Thompson, and also under Mr. Triplett felt and com petent to fill the office. He then referred to the delinquent taxes collected under Thompson and also under Triplett and claimed that the former had collected more than the latter. To demonstrate this propo, sition he placed on the black board a number of figures from circular which he had issued with the certifi- cate of the clerk as to it's correctness. This elicited considerable interest. MT. Brewster then stated in reply to his opponents request for a second term that some years ago Mir. Triplett had defeated Mr. T. M. Phillips for Q second term for Coun- ty Treasurer, and if that was good for MT. Phillips it ought to be good for Mir Triplett. He then charged the present incumbent with favorit- ism in assessing penalties for de- linquent tax payers and concluded by reading his platform from his printed circular.
 MT. Triplett, in his rejoinder, stated that he would issue circular in few days giving all the figures as to his tax collections, and if he did not prove in that circular and by sworn statements of the clerk that he had collected $4, 900 more on the delinquent tax list than his prede- cessor, he would withdraw from the race. This circular setting forth the record, he stated, would be ready in few days, until which time he had nothing further to say
 JUDGE W. D. JONES
 was the next speaker. He begun by saying that on account of the ab sence of his opponents he would re- frain from discussing some questions he desired to present. Everybody knew his record, and if there was anything wrong in it. he asked the indulgence of Christian charity. All his opponents urged against him was that he is candidate for the third term. Democracy is the voice of the people, he declared, and if the people wanted him, then ae was not undemocratic. The reasons he thought he ought to be reelected he enumerated as follows: I he county affairs are in a better condition than ever before; not notwithstanding assess ments have decreased scrip is worth 9S cents and he hoped to bring it to par; more bridges and better bridges iiad been built under. his administra- tien than under all other Judges of the county since the war; has or- ganized the best and only road sys- tenn for working the public highways ever known in the county, and had spent more money on public high ways than any other Judge of the county. It was his intention, he de- clared. if reelected, to place num- Der of county convicts on the public roads to improve the same, but could not use them all because if would bankrupt the county. He then contrasted the financial condi- tion of the county with what it had been a few years ago, reviewed his administration pointed with pride to the public Improvements he had

MIR. J. Y SAUNDERS.


 MR J. Y SAUNDERS, candidate for Treasurer. was then introduced and he was received with hearty applause. Mr. Saunders for merly lived in that township and felt perfectly Ut home. He surprised his friends by making q sspread- eagle speech, which eIicited round af- ter round of applause. He reviewed his record as a citizen and a Demo erat and earnestly appealed to the voters for their support. He closed amid the loudest applause of the evening.
 D. c. BELL.
 Mir. D, c. Bell was next introduced He declared that the Treasurer office is n clerical position and that by past training and experience he was especially qualified to fill it. He promised, if elected. to turn over every cent 60 his successor, or if he didn't he would divide up with his constituents.
 ONE LONE ASSESSOR.
 Mir. j. H. Shelby was the only can. didate for Assessor present. and was next introduced. He said lie wasn't a speaker and did not pretend to he and therefore he would only an nounce his candidacy and request the support of all the voters of the town ship.
 This concluded the program, but Mir. J. w. Adams, who was present as reporter for the GRAPHIC. was call ed on. and in response m~Ge a brief speech in support of the National Democracy, in which he endcav0red to show that it had fulfilled all of it's pledges made during the last National campaign, and urged all Democrats, under all circumstances, to stand by the flag of the party.
 Mr. Campbell, Il Populist, who was present, asked the privilege of reply ing to Mir. Adams speech, which courtesy was accorded him, and he was given respectful attention.
 This closed the speaking, and al- though the hour was latc-it being the hour Of midnight-all repaired to their homes after a peaceful meeting and a pleasant discussion, which was highly enjoyed by the large crowd present.
