Discovered a Dollar Due Benton County—$20 Per Day for It.

Fowler Repulican Leader. Ray Gillespie has a spot as big as a dollar on his record. And he don’t care! And won’t pay. Tom Marshall’s Detectors worked on the record he has made during the past six years as county recorder and found them right to a cent. They were being paid twenty dollars per day and had to find something. And they did. They found that he had made the record of appointing Mrs. Gillespie as his deputy and did not pay the county fifty cents for so doing. They also found that he had made a record of the appointment of Ray Jones as his deputy and did not pay into the county fifty cents for that. And the detectors will not give him what they claim to be a “clean bill.”
