POLITICAL POINTERS. SEWARB OP THE MAN WHO 15 ALWAYS TRYING TO DEFEND THE SCOUNDRELS WHO AW FATTEN WO ON PUBLIC PLUNDER. A CLOSE INSPECTION WILL GENERALLY REVEAL THE FACT THAT THEY ARB SHARING IN THE BOOTY.-tfatMa N#w». Did you read Marshall’s “roorback,” Bro. Clark? ‘ 11 ■ : ■»! ".j '* We wonder if Mr. Halleck wants any more “hosts of friends” after reading Bro. Marshall’s write yp otT.gobHcm-eterk cMmtyf The Republican would even deny that those four pages were cut from Record 10 had not Mr. Murray come out in a statement and admitted that it was true. Wanted:—Two or three stalwart, active men (republicans preferred) , must wear a No. 10 or No. 12 boot with good thick soles. Apply.at Republican office. One of the editors of two of the ring organs has publicly acknowledged himself to be a liar and this week we positively prove the other to be such. In the meantime, not a solitary statement of The Democrat been disproved nor has our $2&.00 forfeit been taken. We would respectfully call Bro. Marshall’s attention to the new, court houses at Winamac and Monticello, in Indiana, at Eureka, Illinois, and at St. Joseph, Michigan, all built within the original estimate or very nearly so, the two former by democratic county officers and the two latter by republican boards. The auditor’s annual report for 1897 gives the “receipts of county revenue proper, $60,814.51.” That s4,oooloan was made during that fiscal year, yet no mention is made of it in any way. Was it included in the “receipts of county revenue proper?” Please explain what fond that $4,000 was included in, and what become of it?

In its frantic endeavor to retain its statistician (30 years in office) four years more at the court house, to carry “pap” and issue misleading statements to the taxpayers, the Journal makes a base attack upon George Stembel, the democratic candidate for the auditorship. It hoped to array Mr. Hustan’s/friendsagainst George by stating that the latter was offering; totrade votes-for sheriff forvdied for himself. This base slander wity react against the whole: repub-; lican ticket, as every sum ip the county who is acquainted with Mr. Stembel knows that he is the is the last man in Jasper county who would do anything of the kind. .
