Thus it appears that the democratic
board drew warrants on the County Of
Albany to the extent OF 34.466.7 20 in ex-
cess Of their levy. OF course 1t is un-
derstood by every taxpayer that there
are some taxes due that are never COL
lected, and ths fact would swell the de-
felt OF the democratic board. l am not
able to state just at present how much
they failed to collect.
Keep in mind that the four funds re-
ferred to. viz: the general fund. the
poor and pauper fund. the road
and bridge fund. and the court
fund. are the only funds in the
conduct Of the county business which
are available for us by the board. So
I eliminate the others. 20 as not to mix
the earnest and candid enquirer in his
search for the true state Of things.
Here is one of the most bah-faced
pieces Of monumental cheek I ever
heard OF: From the above figures. the
correctness Of which will be shown by
the democratic books. It will be noticed
that the democratic board overdrew
their account nearly 5000. and their
levy was over $4,000. Forty thousand
dollars Of the money Of the citizens Of
Albany county was o enough for
them to do the business of the county
, 1896-10-31

expected h republicans. to run the
business Of the county on go, 590.23,
whereas they required the sum of S44.-
s6S.s6 to do the same business with-a
difference in their own favor OF $18,-
1883. The Boomerang would call that
a small item, would it?
The Boomerang rays the statement
about the Indebtedness left by the DEM
ocratic board was entirely false. Let
us see. The county ledger shows this
on the 9Th OF January, 1895:
General fund tbills payable) $1,000 90

was as follows:

Road and bridge fund. ....... 656 Is

Leaving a deficit to commence the
year 1895 with of $1.611.O1. Most peo-
Pile call a deficit in an account a debt.
l don't know what the Boomerang
means by calling this amount a balance
in their own favor. unless they mean
that they are 80 much ahead OF the tax
payers of the county.
The Boomerang claims tina. accord
ing to the sworn statement Of Treasur-
er McGibbon that there was on hand a
clear balance Of So, 910.2 0 after all bills
were paid. In order to reach this re-
markable conclusion it is ascertained
that they added in all the balances of
the various school districts, state taxes,
interest on COUNTY Indebtedness and
various other items-matters with
which the board, whether democrats
or republican, have absolutely nothing
to do except to see that they are cred
tied to the proper accounts.
All those who are in doubt about the
figures given in this article. please call
at the offices Of the county clerk and
treasurer OF the county at any time,
and the figures will be shown on the
lawful records Of the county.

BOOMERANG FAKE.

'bhli -" WV
Two years ago the people were ex-
horted to vote the republican county
ticket as a meaus OF reducing their
taxes. Look at your tax receipts"
was the slogan which was used to Sc
cure votes for the republican county
commissioners. The cry was success
full and the republican ticket was elect
cd.
The deluded taxpayers have enjoyed
the privilege OF looking at much larger
tax receipts ever since. The oldest in
habitant can not remember any county
tax which approached that Of 1895.
People found their taxes raised from is
to 60 per cent over the taxes Of 1898
and 1894.
The excuse was made that high taxes
were necessary to pay of Indebtedness
left by the democratic board Of COM
missioners.
This statement was wholly false.
The sworn report OF Treasurer Nc
Gibbon showed that he had on hand
January 5th, 1895, when the old board
went out Of office $12,372.O4 In cash and
that the outstanding notes and war;
rants amounted to only $3.461.84. In
other words. the county had a clear bal
ance Of $s.91O.2O after all bills were
paid.
Notwithstanding the high taxes
which have been levied since. the coun.
ty is running behind and getting into
debt. Taking the last semi-annual
statement, made July /. 1896. we find
hat the cash on hand amounted to
S .3S7.3 5 while the floating debt, con-
sisting Of warrants and notes. amount
ed to 14.119.30.
July l, 1895. the cash on hand
amounted to $6,715.24 and the floating
debt to $4,000: July l, 1894, the cash
on hand was ST., 1877 81, and the float.
ing debt $S,sO6.5 so. July l. 1893. the
cash balance was $l3. 9s9.2O and the
debt $l3. 016.S4.
To re%capitulate these figures which
are taken from the official sworn state
ments of the republican ~treasurers. We
add a table:

Instead of a surplus Of 50, 1871 as
at the end Of the first IS months Of
the democratic board the reports show
a deficit OF $4,73O.95 at the end Of the
first 10 months Of the republican board.
The necessary expense of running
the county government has been very
much less than formerly, there has
been no criminal business in the courts
because there have been no criminals
caught to speak of. notwithstanding tho
numerous murders and other crimes
that have been committed. No public
Improvements OF any consequence have
been made. Little work has been done
upon the roads though the expenditure
for that purpose has been considerable.
In the face OF these facts. however,
taxes have been enormously and I'M
reasonably increased.
In tn e language Of the Laramie Re.
publican Of 1894, Look at your tax
receipts!"
