his formal announcement of can
didacy for reelection to a second
term, says: Il invite a thorough
Investigation into my conduct of
the Office during the past year
and a half It has occurred
quite a number of times that the
manner in which a public office
has been conducted did not show
up until after the incumbent had
been succeeded by a new officer,
and there is some reason for be
lieVing that We're a close inVeS-
tigatiOn made into the business
of the county Judges Office under
Judge RiX's administration. it
might not disclose a thoroughly
satisfactory condition of affairs.
However. Judge RiX having in
Vited an Investigation of his
administration, an inquiry into
the records of the Office of the
clerk Of courts develops one par
ticular bit of business which it
may not be amiss to make public
at this time as bearing upon his
business and professional meth
DDS not SO very long ago. A
good many things might be aired
concerning Judge RiX's business
and professional methods which
he would doubtless very much
prefer not to have aired, but the
one which is herewith referred
to will suffice to illustrate why it
will be neither safe or wise to
continue him in so important an
office, dealing as it does with the
financial affairs of widows and
orphans. This matter is printed
and published in ample time to
enable any person to step into
the Office of the clerk of courts
and verify every statement for
oneself. 1t could have been with
held until the eve Of the primary
election. but then it would have
been denounced as AN election
scheme to injure him. For this
reason it is put out in plenty of
time to enable the public to verify
the truth of the statements thus
openly made. Not only is the
complaint in the case printed in
full, but an official transcript.
duly signed under the seal of the
clerk of courts, is also attached,
showing that up to a few days
ago the Judgment obtained
against Judge Rix for the sum of
1868 and costs had not been salts
fed, and which the formal com
plant alleges is 'fraudulently
and unlaWfully retained' by
Judge Rix, ana that he has
appropriated the same to his own
use and benefit, contrary to the
laws of the state"
This is no ''electioneering or
campaign statement, but a mat
ter which appears of official
record in the court house, and
may be seen by any one. The
question is therefore asked, in
all sincerity and honesty, is it
either safe or wise for the voters
of Grant county to by their votes
continue Judge Rix in the Office
of county Judge which involves
the handling of the estates of
dead men, and of the financial
interests of widows and orphans:

The result was that Mr.. Kern spoke
