Facts.

for political effect. Being unable
to find any evidence of ROBBERY,
GRAFT or CROOKED WORK in the
county administration, the said
committee has spent most of its
TINT and energy in advising and
suggesting how, in it's exalted
opinion, the Office work and
business Of Baca County gen
orally, should be conducted. Said
committee has called attention
to some few minor errors in
some of the book work, errors
which it is possible for any one
to make, and part of which had
already been corrected. While
in u few places the report shows
that an official is owing the coun-
ty a nominal sum in other places
it shows that the county is owing
the official enough to balance the
account. We call attention to the
following, in illustration 'of our
statement.
H. X. Ward refunded to the
county $lO3.35 being excess
commission paid for collection of
county General school money.
The amount, according to the
figures given, should have been
1884, 90. leaving balance due
the county of S60.75. This mat
ter was explained satisfactorily
to the committee, it being shown
thst when the estimate of the a
mount due the county was made,
some items were found where
only / per cent was paid to Ward
when it should have been 8 per-
cent. These items amounted to
the balance now claimed as due
the, county. The truth of the
matter is there is nothing due
the county in this case, as it was
settled in full at the time.
H. E. Homsher is shown as
owing the County about $500,
said amount being discrepancy
in the amount of commission
paid to Homsher, the report
showing or claiming that hel
should have received only l per-
cont on certain money collected,
whereas the law is very clear in|
the statement that the Treasurer
shall receive 6 percent commits
sion on this class of collections,
and Furthermore said committee
when here admitted that the .
percent was correct.
OF course ostensibly in the
mind OF said committee it Is in
ercusable and even criminal for
aCounty officialto make an error
IN clerical or book work, but the
reTort of this particular com
mittee has more errors and is
more misleading considering the
length of it than any of the coun-
ty records reported upon.
The Herald has not received a
copy of said report. but as 1T IS
political scheme conceived ana
carried out for the purpose OF
injuring the Republican admin
istration in this county, we pre-
sumo that the Democrat " has
received a copy and that SAID
sheet will come out at the last
hour with glaying misstatements
distorting the truth where pos
sible and manufacturing out OF
whole cloth whatever untruth
and vilification its diminutive and
sordid intellect sees fit.
Personal items and items from
correspondents have this week
been unavoidably left out. Next
week will find us at the same old
stand no matter how the election
may go.
