To the Tax Payers Of Logan County.
Through the columns Of The Leader
wish to call your attention to the fact
OF few Irregularities existing in ths
county offices. towIt

sion Laws Of 1906 regulating salaries
for the different county officers is

GERS on the basis OF population

The census population as labe" hy

was slight decrease of the Fedora
census. The county commissioners OF
your county, Mr.. Tax Payer declared
this census by assessors incOrr,cl i.bu
threw it out and are allowing salarie
on the salary fund on the Easis O
10000 population.
Under the Session Laws OF 1895 th'
law allows the county clerk S 10000
salary and deputy, $4,000, ard IN
addition to that it allows $4,000 foi
making up the tax roll waicn makes
total OF $2,70000.
Mr.. Tax Payer at a meeting OF the
ccnuty commissioners In January they
allowed the county clerk 100000 for
making up tax roll and also $4,000 to
the deputy county clerk for work ON
old books. They are allowing salaries
on basis of 10000 population. Where
did they get that population.
Mr.. Tax Payer you are paying the
probate Judge $4,000 per year more
than what is due him on true basis.
| Mr.. Tax Payer you are paying to 8
thousand dollars year to county OF
ficials more than the law allows.
What are you going to do about III
You turned down couple OF good
men in the nomination and election
for county clerk and went to the dog
kennels and picked up couple and
have them In the clerks office. You
do not need to take my word; just lei
your minds drift back to the early
days of Guthrie and Logan county and
all the old settlers will know what you
have got ! do not want to make any
direct charges in the previous years.
| II is not necessary. The county judge
can not entertain any case against
these officials Why? Because It
would affect his salary. The county
treasurer can not turn these warrants
down that come to him for payment.
| Why? Because the commissioners al
lowed the bills and the clerk drew war
rants for same and he dare not say
anything. Why? Because he would
get his head chopped off by the ring.
Mr.. Tax Payer. what are you going
TO do about all of these Irregularities?
Are you still going to let them con-
tinue or, are you going to get up
petition TO the county attorney asking
him to bring action in court against
these officials and get this proposition
down on true basis? And are you
going to elect block heads for county
commissioners to be tool for such
men as are in the county clerks
office? Respectfully.
