aaW TisattM j Aa is well

known to many I was Admintetra'

tor of the estates of Jacob Yoang and of Wm. O'Bold, aa ajso Guardian of the minor heirs. I have

been discharged from all these trusts several Tears. Like the ma

jority of Gawrdiaaa and Adminis

trators, I was ignorant of the law, and entrusted everything to my attorneys, who advised me in every

step I took, made out all my re

ports, examined my receipts, vouchers, etc, and like all other men placed in a similar position, I relied

entirely upon ray attorneys, who I think did what they believed to be

right and proper. .Last spring (about February) I received a notiee through the postoffice citing me to appear at tbe Auditor's office and pay over back taxes which it was

claimed I owed oa. these estates. 1

was very much surprised and worried over the matter when I was

told that there was f 700 doe. Sev

era! days afterward one of the men, J. W. Wharton, who was working op these back taxes, called on me and after stating that he knew that it would be a great hardship on me

to pay f7W, proposed that if I would pay $200 the matter would be dropped. Some ten days elapsed, and the "expert" as he is called,

asked me several times about payins the money. Finally, at a great

sacrifice, I raised the money and

paid tt to him. .

Several days ago 1 went to the

Auditor's office to look the matter op, and found that the 9200 Aad not beat ertdHed, There is not a

eorutoA of a pen to show that I have

ever paid a oad of the 9700 which it was claimed I owed.

How, on investkatioo, I find that

there was nothing due from me as back taxes, although $200 of hard earned money was wrung from me.

Is this blackmail; If net, what

is it?

I told Jim Alexander that I had

paid two hundred dollars as a compromise on back taxes, that were

said to be due against me in tbe Auditor's office, and Jim inferred that I had paid it to Dick, and told it that way, Dick came to me and

asked me to sign a statement that I had not paid the $200 w Aim (Dick). r . t a - t

i a?gneu tout smxeroen ior nnn, nut

1 want your readers to know that I

did pay $200 to J. W. Wharton, who was at that time some sort of a

deputy in the Auditor's office.

Here is the statement, verbatim ? State of Indiana, Monroe coss. 1, John W. Davis, hereby ttnte that I

never said to W. J. Alexander or anyone else that I paid aay money to R. A. Bulk, aad that I never spoke to him ia regard to tbe payment thereof, until Mr. Folk caned an me on tha 4th day of October,

Bale after bale of domestics,

so superbly magnificent, has ever before been seen in Bloomington, and as for prices, we challenge the trade to equal us in cheapness.

The man whom the people choose as their prosecuting attorney is ('returned to be a man who himself does iiot violate the law. Hiram McCormick, Democratic candidate for tbat office, while

sitting in tbe court room at Shoals, dur

ing tne last term or tne J&artin circuit cult court, violated law when a big five shooter revolver drooped out of his bin

pocket on to the Boor ia the presence of

No man in Monroe oounty is better known than Capt. Mart. Alexander. He baa been before the people on several occasions, when a candidate for the office of Sheriff, and his wonderful popularity was indicated by the vote he received. See the comet before it fades

entirely away. Those who failed

to see it three weeks ago missed a beautiful, grand and impressive right. ' Mr. Fulk says he was sick

when the county commissioners made the

contract which is published ia another

comma, it is sininitar that, after he cot

well, and found the contract recorded in

must have wondered what in the world

thu commissioners meant by using his name in the proposition and contract. Commissioners, shame ea you, you naughty men I
