Assures the Election of This
Democratic Candidate

The large number OF Republicans in
terested in good roads were yesterday
very much exercised by the reported
claim that e. G. Krahmer, the Repub-
lican county auditor, was pleased with the
decision of Judge Brill, requiring him to
turn over to the township officers the &c.
300 appropriated for the repair of the
county roads.
An amusing feature of the situation
was that in this report Mr.. Krabmer as
sumed to take credit for having brought
the question before the court, thereby Sc
curing decision that will permit the fu-
ture repair Of the county roads He went
to the extent Of saying that the decision
was just what he wanted, and that he
would now be pleased to sign the war
rants to the town treasurers
In the light of recent occurrences these
claims are very peculiar. Since July 5
Mr.. Krahmer has refused to allow the
payment of the money for the benefit of
the roads Notwithstanding the fact that
during all that time he was thoroughly
protected by the legal opinion of the
county attorney, which opinion has now
been upheld by Judge Brill. Part of the
delay can be charged to the present Re-
publican county commissioners and part
To Auditor Krahmer. as the latter could
