why Taxes are Higher

Under the above caption the
Beacon gives list of figures
which includes the Register Of
Deeds, claiming that it cost more
to run the county under republi'
can administration of 1904, han
it did under populist rule OF 1901.
The Beacon has a special spti-
tude in misconstruing figures,
especially during campaigns,
and this case - one iii point,
For instance the Beacon ays.the
Office of Register of Deeds cost
the county in 1901, when under
pop supervision, only S2,887.5l,
and that in 1904, when under the
control of republicans, it cost the
county ~, $50. 63. The Beacon
further says that YOU can not
explain this difference by saying
that the volume OF business is
greater nov than thetI. ~ Were
the statement true the BEACON
would have won its case and
would be entitled to further con-
sideration as a campaigner. TN
fortunately for. the Beacon. the
records of the Register of Deeds
are still in existence, and ire
open to the public for investiga-
tion, The facts are that the
volume Of business has been
greater under republican admin
istration than it was when "a
populist was in control, but not
outstanding that under republi-
can administration it has cost the
county a less per cent to do. the
business of the Office and under
republican SUBDIVISION the Office
has turned over to the county a
surplus IN excess of the expense
more than three times greater
than did the pupulist admini5tra-
ton in the same length of time.
To verify our statement we
here append statement. compil-
ed from the records, including
the dates from 1898 to 1904,
which we challenge our populist
friends to successfully contradict

Every. republican, Of Custer

campaign, in order to be posted

give only facts and logic; fair
reasons for the existence and main
tainance the republican party in
power. No republican, who is
worthy Of the name, when be

the republican party being kept
in the supremacy will allow per-
sonal or himsy matters to influ-

nominees may not all be Of your
personal preference, but if they
represent party principle which
you believe should prevail YOU
can only emphasize this fact by
voting for your party nominees.
A vote for the opposition is a
vote to strengthen their position
This is inconsistent. For
years, Notwithstanding that there
has been majority of republi-
cans in Cnster county, a populist
sheriff has been elected and most
of the time a populist county
board, Those two Offices with
the Office Of county Judge are the
only ones that provide revenue
for the support of the party or
gans. If the principles OF the
party are worth maintaining, no
greater mistake can be made
than to vote against the nomi-
nees OF your party, whose office
furnishes support for the news
paper of your party nor can you
in any way help the opposition
more than than to vote for the
nominees, who can give to the
opposition papers their greatest
support. Make sure you make
no mistake in this directiou
again. Vote for the republi'
can candidates for supervisors,
for county judge and for sheriff
