McFarland and Wood Spitler, Democrat and Republican county campaign treasurers, respectively, have filed their reports of contributions and expenditures to date for the late campaign. While not quite all the bills are in, the reports show that the Republicans received $438.14 and spent practically all of it, anti that the Democrats received $352.31 and spent but $1 80.07 to date—several bills for poll book holders not having as vet been paid. Following is a practically itemized statement of the report of each treasurer as tiled. It is itemized precisely as filed except where two or more items of receipts or expenditures are to the same person we have made them , all in one item to save space. DEMOCRATIC’.
