ChAS. MOTLEY. ON
COUNTY POLITICS

What did the Republicans do? They
ran the Territory into debt two mil
lion dollars said Charles Motley, late
candidate on the Home Rule ticket for
representative This it is said will be
the battle cry of the natives in the
coming county elections.
The Home Rulers did pretty we'll
in the legislature even if it was Re
publican. Beckley might have done
even better, 1 believe L could. The
twenty there in the House should have
done better though and not let the sew
en- do as they did. 1t was all right at
first when we used to have our little
meetings in Home Rule headquarters
and tell the twentythree what to do,
but they stopped coming after while
and then got to fighting among them
selves.
What did we need with the loan
bill anyway. running the country in
to debt like that
Tor new roads and bridges was
suggested.
What do we need with new roads
and bridges?'' was the reply. 1.-The
roads used to be good enough for us
natives. We don't need any better
roads, and it is all a waste of money.
We don't have rubber tired carriages
to drive over them anyway. And we
don't need new sidewalks either. Paths
used to be good enough for us. And
now the Republicans have to borrow
money to spend, and we have to pay
it in heavier taxes. Just wait The
legislature put aside 5000. 900 this year
and they Will have to put by that
much, every two years in order to pay
it. And where is the money coming
from? Taxes of course, and everyone
will have to pay more. The Home
Rulers neN er run the country into debt
like that two years ago.
But the Home Rulers voted for
this loan bill" was the next sugges-
ton put to Motley.
They couldn't help it, the Repub-
licans would have carried it anyway
Just wait though, the Home Rulers
are preparing the candidates for the
county offices and in a few days the
list will be published.
What office am I a candidate for?
On, two or three. Just wait until the
lists are published and you viii find
out who the candidates are. The Home
Rulers Will sweep everything in the
county elections"
