that we did not attempt to give all

which were turned down. Cridnar-

but he made a sorry failure of it in
his last attempt. He practically
shows that he duplicated printing

turned down. We don't care much

plain that your bills were cut down

THE MATTER OF SALARY
OF STATES ATTORNEY

A good deal Of discussion has beef,
going on in the matter of the salary of
States Attorney since it was looked
up and investigated.
1t aroused States Attorney McNamee
sufficiently to call for an opinion of the
Attorney General on the matter.
According to the Attorney Generals
opinion, which of course is not neces-
sarily final, but granting the point it
appears that McNamee was paid $50
more for the first six months of his
term than there is any authority for
under the opinion rendered.
1t is then up to Mr.. McNamee to re-
imburse the County for the $50 at least
until the other question is decided in
the courts.
This emphasizes the point of needless
extravaganza. Remember the County
Auditor, States Attorney and County
Commissioners are directly responsible
for this extravaganza. To stop it vote
for new officials on the ticket to the
Right.

to convince the voters that Crawford
is q reactionary or that Burke is a
