The balance includes officers sal

be found in the last annual report
of the County Auditor. If the writ
ers of the Post had referred the tax
payers to said annual report for the
year 1901, we would not have been
under the necessity of submitting
the foregoing.
Another matter we desire to call
attention to and we herewith quote
the following:
"Would the voters of this county
be asking too much of the County
Commissioners to explain why a
deputy recorder has been paid sal
ary for the last four years, or since
the present lncum bent has filled the
position. when no such expense has
ever been IN Office"
The above appeared in recent
issue of the Post, and in reply there
to will say that the deputy recorder
has not been paid salary for the
last four years, or since the present
incumbent has been in Office. At
the end of each quarter the recorder
} has presented bill for extra and
necessary assistance and it appear
ing to the Board that such assist
ance was necessary In order to per.
form the work of the Office and
such allowance has been made as
we have considered reasonable tor
the labor performed.
On at least two occasions Mr..
Alfred Bulge, our County Attorney
appeared before the Board and urg
ed the appointment of deputy re-
corder on the ground that the work
of the Office was sucn as to require
it. No salary, however, was fixed but
it was understood and agreed thai
! when the recorder required assist
ancc he was authorized to engage it
The most that has been paid for any
one year for assistance in the record
er's office was $4,000 during the
) last three and one-half years.
From this it will be seen that tn
report which has been circulated
: that the recorders wife receives
salary of $35. 90 per month is wllful

MENT OF A DEPUTY.
Notice is hereby given that the

JAMES e. HART,

Auditor and Recorder.
This notice was published in
the Post as required by law and
there was no opposition whatever
and it appearing to the entire satis-
faction Of the Board from their
own knowledge of the work re-
quired and also from the statements
made by Mr.. Bulge the Recorder
was allowed deputy as before
stated.
The writer of the piece quoted
above says that "no such expense
has ever been paid before. To show
that this statement is false we here
present few of the bills on file in
the recorders office which were al
lowed Mr.. G. Sponberg when he
was recorder, and at time too,
when by reason Of the fact that he
was working under the ''fee system
and received all the fees which
came into the Office, besides com
pensatlon for everything which he
did including his salary as Clerk OF
the Board of County Commissioners
etc. etc
: Here arc a few of said bills
which can be seen by any person
who desires to call at the office:

A FRENCH MURDERER.

A murder that las excited ell Paris
was recently committed at Clichy, near
Montmartre. A young man named Al
bert Loste cut the throat of beautiful
woman, who had forgotten home and
children in her infatuation for him.
The crime was caused by jealousy, and
was committed in the mans apartments.
Af.er wandering the streets for hours,
Loste gave himself up to the police.
He told the authorities that he had
met Marcelle Schueller four months ago
in the absence of her husband in the
colonies; that it had been a case of love
at first sight, and that, the woman had
visited his apartment almost daily. In
a fit of Jealous rage, following a quarrel,
Loste said he drank a bottle of tincture
of iodine and Que of laudauam. Rush
ing into the room he told the woman he
was about to die aud. seizing a razor,
cut her throat from ear to ear.
The poor creature was found on the
floor in a pool of blood. On her breast
was pinned her parents address.
The old people were filled with horror.
Their daughter had never absen'ed her
self in the evening, and the existence
of Loste was unsuspected.
Loste is a son of Bordeaux lawyer,
and has dissipated considerable for
tune. His people are horror stricken at
his deed. The news has beeen kept from
his aged mother who, it is believed,
would not survive the shock.

BRITISH DEFEATED.

The British expedition against Ben
Abdullah. the so-called Mad Mullah, in
Somaliland, Africa, has suffered severe
defeat. Colonel Swayne, British COM
missioner in the Somaliland protecoorate,
commander of the expedition, in an
official message, issued by the British
foreign Office last night, says that as a
result of the fighting at Erego, between
the British and Italian frontiers, the
Somali levies were much shaken. The
Mullah is bringing re-enforcements from
all directions. Colonel Swane is much
hampeled by the necessity of transport
ing all the water used by the expedition
and Transporting his wounded. He is
retiring on his base at Bohotle, 2lO
miles across the desert from Berdera.
He asks urgently for re-enforcements.
Since the beginning of the operations
against The Mulah lass May little news
has been received, officially or otherwise,
concerning the expedition. The mes
sage Just received is taken to mean that
all the work will have 10 be begun again.
Undoubtedly The Mullah's success will
set the Ogadon and Dolbahauta coun-
tries ahame. Some arrangements may
be made by which the Italians on the
east and the Abyssinians on the west
will participate in the campaign. There
has not been successful engagement
against the Mullah, who is now taking
the aggressive. Besides major and
captain who were killed in recent en-
gagement fifty other men were killed,
and a hundred wounded, including a
colonel
