take or a Faisehood.
In Sundays Statesman that heroic
reformer, +. II. Flagg prints copy Of
the bill he claims was omitted from THR

The bill is all correct, but II appears in
the table, esen II Mr.. Flagg does deny
IL. lie publishes the itemized bill for
sl32.l3 for boarding prisoners, where.
as our table has the bill included with a
$50 for special deputy hire, making the
total 1892 13. Mr.. Flagg was informed
by one Of the county officers that such
was the case, but he didn't want to
understand il, and repeated his error.
However, II it we're an additional bill It
would only increase Mr.. Durbin's
receipts 81 per month, and his record
would still remain tl97.l3 per month
better than his predecessors. That's a
pretty good record, and even Frank
Whghtman, who drew that much more
than Mr.. Durbin, and who is along on
the canvass, will not undertake to deny
it. These men all know that Durbin's
administration has been the lowest in
our county for years, but Mr.. Flagg
seems TO enjoy befogging the mind.
