New Jersey trusts cannot understand what Mark Hanmj wants with campaign contributions when he considers McKinley as good as elected and Mr. Bryan’s candidacy a great joke. The spectacle of Mark Hanna making the rounds of tire trusts with his frying pan in one hand and McKinley’s candidacy in the other, is not likely to inspire the young men of the country with enthusiasm for Mark’s man. No honest man need have anything to fear from an investigation of the county records, and, if there are dishonest ones, the people want to know it. Help them to find out by voting for the democratic candidates for county office, who are pledged to make an investigation . The Indianapolis Press, republican, says of. the investigation of county offices now going on in Marion county: There are only three weeks more in which the investigation can be carried on under the original appropriation of the county council, but a member of the council, when asked if he would favor an additional appropriation, replied in the affirmative and added: “This investigation of the county books is one of the best things that any board of commissioners ever ordered. I read with interest thal ex-Treas-urer Holt had recently paid back §10,500, and I am in a position to state there will be more money paid before the whole thing is cleared up.” Another member said: “It is high time, that a stop should be made to certain things that have been allowed in county offices unmolested, and I believe that this time has come.” There is one thing in particular that we want to impress upon the voters and taxpayers of Jasper county, and that is that to secure an investigation of the county records and recover the vast sums of money that have been illegally paid out and illegally retained, democratic officers MUST bo elected in Jasper county THIS fall. Republican officers have refused the petition of one thousand taxpayers to order this investigation, the same officers who are now asking you to re-elect them to office, i Democratic candidates are pledged to make the investigation, and unless they are elected THIS fall no hope for an investigation can be had for two or three years at least, and by that time the bonds of the ex-officials whose accounts need the most looking into will have expired by the statute of limitation and they can snap their fingers at the people, no matter what grave errors might be found. DON’T forget this, and vote THIS FALL for a thorough overhauling of the county records. The experts who have been conducting the investigation of the county offices in Shelby county filed their reports with the commissioners last Monday. They find ex-Treasurer Marsh Wilson, now serving a term in the Michigan City prison for filing false claims against the county, still short $45,735.43, notwithsanding that his bondsmen had already paid §3(>,(XX) for him. The statement shows that he is given credit for $115,188.47, the warrants for this amout being missing. There is no receipt to be found for $lO,150, paid to the Farmers' national bank, still he is given credit for! the amount. Were not the credits given, as set out in the report, it would bo shown that Mr. Wilson is short in his accounts not far from $175,000. To give him the credit he gets ho is still short $ 15.735.13. The county commissioners, it is said, will bring suit against the responsible parties for the shortage. The report of the office of ex-Anditor Carson shows that he is .short $353.20 and that he has been allowed §1,851 in illegal fees. 1 The ex-treasurer of Shelby county is now serving time at Michigan City, and the ex-deputy auditor is doing time at Jeffersonville. Eight other persons have been indicted, as follows: George M. Ray, E. T. Carson, ex-auditor, the three ex-county commissioners, Girton, Amos and Cherry, Armine

and Herman Chueden,. and exSheriff William McDougall, all of whom are charged with some crime of attempting to defraud the county. Their trials will come up in about four weeks.

Bryan Club Organized.

The campaign was opened by the democrats in Jasper county lust Tuesday night by Hon. Maynard L. Daggy of Greencastle, who spoke to a good audience at the court house. Mr. Daggy is young in years-26-and looks even younger than he is, yet if any of our republican friends went to hear him in anticipation of his making a failure, they, were ingloriously disappointed. Mr. Daggy bandied the issues in a way which commanded the closest attention of his hearers from start to finish, and republicans united with democrats in declaring it a masterly address. His speech was brilliant, logical and convincing. Ho spoke without notes and was at no loss for words to express his thoughts at any time. There are probably few better native speakers in Indiana, and we predict a brilliant career for him. After the speaking, a Bryan club was organized for Marion township, with E. P. Honan, President; L. E. Glazebrook, VicePresident; J. J. Hunt, Secretary and Jerry Healy, Treasurer. Executive committee: J. W. Douthit, John Eger, Earl Mann, Wm. Smith and F. E. Babcock. A large number of names were inrolled on the club list that evening and more have since called and put down their names. It is ex-* pected to enroll the name of every voter in the town and township who intends to affiliate with the democrats in this campaign. A meeting of the club was held last evening to lay out further work. Wo can say to our friends in the out townships of the county that the democrats at the hub are throughly awake and have pulled their coats for enthusiastic work in this campaign. The democratic platform t is large enough, broad enough and patriotic enough for every true lover of his country to stand upon, and with the grave issues that are before the people this year—the dangers to the future of this republic if the Mc-Kinley-Hanna regime is given another four years of power—is sufficient to unite all reform forces and anti-imperialists in supporting democratic measures ami democratic principles under the leadership of that matchless and true friend of the people, William Jennings Bryan, and his illustrous running mate, Adlai E. Stevenson.

The Circuit Court.

The September term of the Jasper circuit court will convene next Monday. Both grand and petit jurors have been called. Following are the petit jurors: John T. Lamson Jordan Harvey W. Wood Marion Simon Fendig Wheatfield Wm. O. Roadifer Remington Albert S. Keene Wheatfiled John L. Osborne Hanging G. Walter H. Hershman Walker Jesse L. Brady Rensselaer Wm S. Parks Rensselaer Henry C. Jacobs Jordan Wesley N. Hinkle Barkley Joseph Steward Hanging G. Harrison Wasson Newton Charles W. Murray...... Barkley Joseph Rowen Marion Stephen Brusnahatn Union The grand jury is called to meet Monday, Sept. 10, and the petit jury Monday, Sept. 17. Several new suits have been filed lately, among which is the appealed ditch case of S. O. Derby et al vs Kphriam Gilmore, appealed from commissioners’ court. James H. Chapman vs George W. Casey and John F. Garriott, complaint on note. M. F. Chilcote, administrator of the estate of Ruth L. Chipman, vs Harry Adamson, intermeddling. Simon P. Thompson, David J. Thompson and Mary E. Spitler as executrix of the estate of Marion L. Spitler, vs S. R. Nichols, John L. Nichols and George H Brown, complaint on note. It seems that S. R. Nichols, trustee of Barkley tp., borrowed $568 of the firm of Thompson <k Bro.. August 19, 1896, for sixty days, at 8 per cent, interest. Neither the principal or interest has been paid, and plaintiffs ask for judgement for principal, interest and attorney fees, amounting altogether to SBOO. M. F. Chilcote, administrator of estate of Ruth „X»- -Chipman, vs Myrtle Chipman, intermeddling. Same vs E-unico Admanson, ini termeddjing. I * James Higgins vs John T- Higgins, Maggie E. Stack. Elizabeth Jane Bowers and William Bowers, petition to coiistruo will of Miles Higgins. Geo. W. • Coppers vs John i Poicel et al, action to quiet title. David J. Thompson vs Geo. W. Nicholson, action on note.

COMMUNICATED.

Another Battle To Be Fought for Liberty. Fellow taxpayers of Barkley township, after six weeks of unremitting and persistent labor and the use of bulldozing, intimidation coercion, threats and the power of chattel mortgages, the enemy of free institutions and the uncorrupted will of the people as expressed at the ballot-box, have succeeded in securing enough resident land-owners—though some are mighty small ones—to their petition for another railroad election in our township, and we must once again lose our time and spend the county’s m?ney to vote upon the same identical question which less than two months ago was decided peacefully by the highest authority in America—the ballots of a free and independent people. That the calling of another railroad election in Barkley township, so soon is an outrage and contrary to all laws of justice, every man who has the best interests of his country at heart and believes in a free and uneorrupted ballot must admit. It would seem when such tactics as this are adopted to overthrow the plain will of the people we have reached a stage, in which the good old-fashioned, Honest and uninfluenced ballot method of settling important questions must give way to corporate greed, avarice and corruption. That such things can be done in Jasper county almost surpasses belief, yet here we are, confronted by the cold facts which no one can deny. The election, fellow tax-payers, is called for Tuesday, October 9. Let us to work and show the liberty loving-people of the country that vassalage does not yet exist in Barkley township to such an extent as to overthrow the people’s will, that liberty still lives and that the hirelings and vassals of plutocratic aliens cannot in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred defeat the owners and tillers of the soil of our township at the ballot-

box.
