figures to think over.
The year 1912 was the last year the
republican officers had control of tht
county business. The total expenditure
for county purposes for that year wa,
ei7, ,8S3 70 an d this included the election
expenses for that year amounting te
tS. .060.s7 making the actual expenses OF
the county for the year 1912 aside from
the election $l4.277.s6
The year 1918 was the first year our
present democratic officials hud charge
Of the business of the county and the
total expenditure of money for county
purposes for that year was $2l, ,s79.72
and this does not include any election
expenses as we had no election that
year. Comparing the county expendi.
lures of 1918 with those of 1912 after
subtracting the election expenses from
the total for 1912, shows that the ex-
penditure of county money for 1918 for
the ordinary county purposes was ST.

claims that the Enterprise charge of

and the above figures either justify the
Heraid's position on that question or
