It has been reported that j. W..
Laughlin, has made his brags that he
pulled down a good deal more money
than was reported against him and that
for mi year as he figures it, he got
about twice as much as was reported
against him. That point is readily o n
coded, because there were only three
items on which report was made, these
were for jailer, for boarding prisoners
and for sherif's fees. No notice was
taken, at the time of his fees for col
lecting delinquent personal taxes, and
court fees, and for telephoning. tele-
graghing and for postage and for deputy
sheriffs. Laughlin probably is right
when he makes his claim. We are
willing to concede the point that he got
more than was reported against him
for reasons shown above.
