tion of affairs.
For many years past the county gov
ernment has been In the hands Of
the democratic party. The record left
by that party after this long era OF
misrule is a bonded Indebtedness Of
$428,000 and floating debt of about
SIP, 900. During the years Of democrat
ic administration, enormous sums Of
money have been collected from own
efs Of property and others In the way

ROADS WE'RE NEGLECTED
The public roads Of the county hav
teen sadly neglected and If there is
on single first class bridge in the
county, 1t still remains undiscovered.
There has been needless expend-
lture of money in many ways but
when assistance has been asked fer
road improvements, it has not always
been granted. The county scrip has
no market value and will not even
