At a largely attended meeting
Of the Union Republican First
District Committee last even
ing Attorney General II. ii. Ward was
commended for the steps he has taken
to investigate the charges that have
been made against the administration
Of the ohl Democratic Levy Court. The
resolutions were adopted unanimously
after some discussion. They follow
Whereas. Itumors of mal-admnlStra-
tion of county finances have been rife
in this county for many years, and
Whereas, Constant Democratic con-
troll of th. Levy Court of the county,
the control against which these rum"rs
Of muladminiStration rest, has hereto
fore prompted an investigation that
would show what fraud had been com
mttrd and who committed it. Therefore
be it
Resolved, That we, the Uuion Rcpuh.
lican Committee do endorse md com
mend the action of the Attorncy-Grncral
in his determination that thorough dis
closure of the Democratic almini~tva-
ton of this county'S finances shall IL"
mudc public and that the responsibility
for the mal-administrati"n Of It's affairs,
if such administration exists, shat
be placed where it properly belongs.
Mr.. Ward will begin his investigation
today. Clerk Of the Peace Quigl"y,
County Treasurer Rcttcw and Comp

been summoned to he OF hand at Mr.
