ALL of the taxpayers In Audrain
County are interested in the growth
of Mexico Mexico people are all
most assuredly interested in the
prosperity of Audrain county. There
can be no possible gain to those
who live in or out OF Mexico in
Audrain county to have controversy
Regarding how much of the taxes Is
spent in or near Mexico, or in the ex'
treme portions of the county. No
county can be prosperous when there
is a county seat war" Mexico peo-
pie have no desire to have the
highways OF bridges close TO Mex
leo looked after any better than
those in other parts of the county
We are all interested in the material
growth and prosperity of the county
as a whole.

ing malfeasance in office, they inn
ply it, If you. have any reason to
believe that either member of the
County Court of Mr.. Wakefield, or
any other County official, is not per-
forming his duty In an honorable way
then you should present your charges
to the Grand Jury and cause an inves
tigation to be made.
However, | am charitable enough
TO think that you have drawn ON a
keen imagination or merely been
controlled by prejudice as to facts
as they really exist, and consequent
ly for your information l will state
the following facts:
Section AIS, Laws of 1909, gives
the County Court authority and en-
courages them to give donations to
County fairs. Read for yourself.
Wooden culyerts are put in and main
tanned by the road overseers. AS
an ex-road overseer you should
know this and il Sailing Township is
in such dire need of wooden culverts,
why did you not put few in your
district, while road overseer, you
were overseer two of the last six
years you refer to. Not since | have
been a member Of the Court has
there been bridge promised that
was not put in. The present Court
is not much ON promising that which
it cannot fulfull. No, the citizens
did not offer to pay half of the ex
pense or any part Of the expense Of
putting in steel bridge to replace
the Dean bridge and 1t was not re
built with water-oak lumber. Through
a mistake of one Of Mr.. Considine's
men, some water-oak lumber was
] hauled to the work and placed in the
bridge but when Mr.. Considine's at
tention was called to the matter u
was taken out and replaced with con
tract lumber at no expense to the
county except for the carpenters
work. Examine 'the records.) No
the Court did mot and will not pay
any telephone bills contracted fol
by Mr.. Wakefield in his performance
of duty and, emphatically no, ] die
not tell Mr.. Wakefield in your pres
ence. or any ones else presence
that the Court would pay his ex
penses to Centralia and for rig
etc. Look at the records; ask Mr.
Wakefield. AS for the $3.50 Mm
ber, no such bill has been presented
by Mr.. Wakefield. The lumber yO'
refer to at Rush Hill9 cost tn
county $2.61 and not $3.50. Examine
the records.
As to my signing the petition,
hasten to say that l will not l sin
cerely believe that the offic
of Highway Engineer is of benefit t
the county and | will not sign pet
tlon to abolish 1t and then vote TO
, It's retention. However, understan
! me that / have no quarrel with an
, one who does not see as | do an

or not than members of the County
Court. As we understand the mat
ter, every member of the Court is
in favor of continuing this office
The Ledger would suggest that tax
payers throughout the county gen
orally consult with the members Of
the Court regarding this matter, SC
that they can have fair and intel
ligent idea of the contention. The
Ledger is most assuredly in favor Of
whatever would be for the best in
terests of the county generally. II
we are mistaken in our contention
about this matter we would like to
be informed. Is there a single valid
reason why Audrain county should
not have highway engineer? If so
would like for some one to present
it. The Ledger stands for better
roads throughout the County and we
can imagine no better way to secure
them than to have a first-class high
way engineer.

What is the use of paying a salary
TO the man who, collects the taxes
unless we pay aSsalary to the man
who send them. The most important
office we can think of is that of a
man who has charge of the expendi
ture of our taxes. We all want good
roads. We are all willing to pay
for good roads. Most of us, we
think, want to pay man fair
salary to see that the taxes we pay
for good roads are properly and eco
nomically expended. We believe
there is no more important office in
Audrain county than that of high
