Yesterday we met good democrat
ic friend and there was sadness foot
deep al around him, says the Oneida
County Republican,. We asked him:
why this thick gloom?" lie fetched
II Sigh from the region Of his waist
band, and dolorously exclaimed: "The
country is going to the dogs. Every
thing is going up but the products of
the farm. we will soon all be crush
cd to earth to rise again no more" In
the hope of cheering him up Il little,
we explained that the farm products
of 1890 had brought sixteen hundreds
OF millions Of dollars more than they
did I'm 1894 and 1895. Then he broke
down completely and wept like Il child.
Between sobs, he ejaculatcd: There
it is, more of Mark IIanna's work
more goldbug conspiracy. What
chance has Il poor, honest democrat
got TO get into Office now? Dam pros

entitled Ia Il sent In the senate, IL the

doubt that the senate will vote as the
committee recommends, unless Mr..
Clark resigns before vote Ii taken.
The committee would have reported

Commissioners Make Another Order.

The county commissioners are still
in session, but will probably wind up
the work Of the regular session this
week. The following order has been
entered In their journal:
"Robert S. Bragaw appeared and
requested hearing at this time in re-
gard to the cash books demanded from
him by the board at the January meet
ing. Robert s. Bragaw denied that
he had kept any cash book other than
the auditors journal, claiming that
he kept a memorandum of fees and
that his report Of fees collected includ-
ed abstracts, acknowledgements and
certified copies, as well as all other
fees Of the office Of county recorder,
auditor and clerk Of the district court
and clerk Of the board of county com
missioners. Whereupon the board
adopted the following resolution:
'.Rcsolved, that in order to ascertain
the exact amount OF receipts collected
as fees in the several offices mention
ed for the year 1898, and the particular
source from which such fees were de-
rived, the auditor is hereby ordered TO
have as complete a list as possible
made from the books in his Office and
submit the same to this board"
Il. Marshall was allowed 5000 for
services as night Waterman at the
