Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 59, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 November 1910 — FINLEY P. MOUNT’S WEAKNESS. [ARTICLE]
FINLEY P. MOUNT’S WEAKNESS.
In his speech here last Wednesday night the Hou. Finley P. Mount, republican candidate for attorney general, took occasion to criticise the extravagance of the administration of Governor Marshall. The latter, at Richmond, Ind., a few days ago, replied to the charges of Mount, which he has been making at different places he has spoken, and showed conclusively that the extravagance of which Mr. Mount complained could in no way be charged to his administration. The state boards which have the expenditure of public funds in most instances are republicans and the democratic administration inherited a bunch of expenditures from its predecessors that had to be paid for, and for which the democrats could in no wise be charged with. We copy an editorial from the Indianapolis News regarding
Governor Marshall's reply to Mount’s charges which we want you to read. It will be found on the second page of today’s Democrat.
