" Back PAY" is Wanted.

Treasurer Frost presented to the
County Commissioners, at their ses-
sion this week, claim for $1,000
"hack pay" on the ground that F. G..
Blakcslee, who has been recognized by
the county as Mr.. Frost's deputy. had
been paid by the Treasurer SO per
month until the amount aggregated
the sum claimed. The Commission
ers in laying his demand upon the
table was actuated by the agreement
and pledge made by the Peoples
party candidates on assuming Office
that they would perform all the duties
thereof for the salary provided by law.
Mr.. Frost after noting some excep-
tions made by the board in providing
pay for extra service, ingenuously de-
clares:
"Now after four years of faithful SER
vice and hard work | am going out of Of
flee as poor as / went in. Now, gentle
men, am making no claim OH you, but
do ask you in justice to equalize this
matter for me in some manner. | have
Il chance to save some OF my property II
can manage to pay the back taxes,
which include the taxes Of 1898 and
down. l am informed by some of the
best counsel in this place that il bring
suit l can recover every cent. | do not
want to do this, and do not say that
will, but l respectfully ask you to give
me some relief. During the last two
years, while Mr.. Blakeslee was with me,
l made his salary $75 out of my own
pocket. Trusting you will see the JUS
tice of what have said, remain very
respectfully yours"
Mr.. Frost will certainly find some sat-
isfaction in the verification OF an hon.
est administration which "going odt
as poor as l went in" plainly shows, as
we'll as in the fact that he is not alone
in the vain desire to pay back taxes.
The fact is that pretty much all of the
old-timers are in the same hole"

RING WORM AND DANDRUFF.
They Are Each Caused by a Psstiferous Germ

iney are Cacn IauSeo py PeStiferous Uerm.
Ring worm and dandruff are some
what similar in their origin; each is
caused by parasite. The germ that
causes dandruff digs to the root of the
hair, and saps its vitality, causing fall
ing hair, and, finally, badness. With
out dandruff there would never be
badness, and to cure dandruff it is
necessary to kill the germ. There has
been no hair preparation that would
do this until the discovery of Newbro's
Herpicide, which positively kills the
dandruff germ, allays itching instant
ly and makes hair glossy and soft as
silk. At all druggists. Take no sub.
s,itutes. There is nothing "just as
good"
