The Rev. DR.. Swift complains
that the surplus which used to
swell the county treasury has dis
appeared. IT'S too truel The
treasury is empty; but the Rev.
DR.. and his Prohibition coadjutors
have the remedy in their own
hands. Let them "put up" the
5000 or S25,0 of which the
county has been deprived by
reason of the absence of the sa-
loon for the past four years, and
all will be well again. Surely Re-
form-Moral Reform-is worth it's
price, and its advocates should
not discredit its payment. If the
Rev. DR.. will think back a little
he will recall that I told him that
he and those with him would have
the treasury depleted within a few
years, and that then they would
be crying out that our Democratic
officials were responsible for the
undesired condition so superin-
duced. The Rev. DR.. and his So
lar walking Republican confreres
devised by a trap after old Uncle
Remus' model to catch the enemy
''comin' and gwine." They ought
to pay for it's cons truction with
out complaint. When I get time,
and the weather cools q little, |
will give the Rev. DR.. a few "fg-
gers" resultant upon local Re-
publican administration, to ponder
over. In the meantime, the con
sumption of the beverages that
both cheer and inebriate goes
merrily on, free and untaxed, and
with little or no abatement.
