LAST weeks mention of the fact that
District Clerk Smith turned fees into
the county treasurer-which no district
clerk before did-brought the Cresset
off its feet. 1t says other officers did
the same thing. Granted. But that
does not overcome the fact that the
district clerk IS office is lf-sustaining
for the first time since the passage of
the new fee and salary law. Hereto
fore the county has paid out money to
sustain the Office when business was
better than it Is now, but now it is self
sustaining and pays money into the
county treasury besides. Other of
fees have done this every year. The
county clerk, which the Cresset cites,
is salaried Office and all the fees are
turned over to the county. But the
district clerk is paid exclusively by
fees. or should be, up to $500, after
which half of the excess belongs 60 the
county, and this is the first time the
Office has been self sustaining since the
passage of the law in 1895, and this result
was accomplished the first year OF Mr..
Smiths term. In the light of past
events we should think that the repub-
lican organ would keep mum on the
administration Of this particular Office.

THE issues in the Barber county
campaign this fall are we'll defined and
clearly put. 1t is honesty and clean
politics on one side against special ia
vors, legislative snaps. dishonest cleo
tons and wholesale injustice ON the
other. If you want to be governed by
. political ring and pay taxes to keep it
enthroned, just vote for the republican
machine few years longer and you
won't even have left the privilege OF
voting unless you agree to vote the
way they dictate.

THE ISSUE IS CLEAR.


Siuce the Populist and Democratic
conventions have been held, the people
Of Barber county know which ticket
stands for the special printer law and
republican convention was held the
party did not have the courage to take
a position but when the other conveu-
tiOns declared against the law the Cres
set, the mouthplece of the republican
candidates and the father of the law,
came out and endorsed it which yirtu-
ally committed the republican candi.
dates to it, and cites figures to prove
that the law is good one. Hence we
have right to say that the republican
candidates are in favor of sustaining 1t
unless they declare otherwise in public
print over their own signatures.
The figures cited to show that the op-
GRAFTON Of the special law is less expen.
sive than the old one are false. The
two first quarters of 1901 are compared
with those of 1902, which IS unfair for
the following reasons:
First, because after the election in
1901 and before the county printer was
installed, over $500 worth of stationery
and supplies we're received at the court
house.
Second because the final tax notice of
1901 was oyer nine times as large as
that of 1902.
Third, because the present county
printer did not take advantage of the
clause in the new law to furnish sta.
tlOnery and blank books and Tx his
own price. The goods of this kind
which he furnished he turned over to
the county at cost.
Fourth, because the printer was
not recognized as the one who is to
furnish stationery. but orders were
made through foreign concerns with
out his consent. If he should decide to
demand his rights in this respect it
might cost the county still more.
Now what are the facts: From Jan
uary IA. 1902. to July 1, 1902, it cost
$500 to publish commissioners pro-
ceedlngs. During the same period in
1901 under the old law this work was
not done and hence cost nothing. The
same amount of final tax notice In 1902
cost one-tifth more than it did in 1901.
The treasurer's quarterly statement
was not furnished the printer as con.
templated by the new law. Add $40
more here.
From this it will be seen that If the
new law were followed and the tax
lists were equal, the new law for SIX
months would have cost ST. 1861 "a as
against 1913 IS the previous year.
The complaint against our measure
ments is all clap trap. We use the
same measurement now we always did.
and the same the Cresset has used.
That is simply baby whining.
But we are glad the republicans have
taken the stand they have. The peo-
pie once decided that they do not want
the law and we believe they will make
it just as strong next November. The
object of the Cresset and it's candidates
is to force it down their throats wheth.
or they want it or not. If you want the
law repealed vote the Independent
ticket.
