To Settle a Campaign Roorback.
IheCot'RiRK has been requested
tor information aa to whether a county auditor can practice law.
Emphatically no, he cannot. For
probably I J years back in Dubois county he has acted as Judge, Jury and County Commissioners in everything pertaining to county business, without pretending to be an attor ney, and it would require solving a problem in mathematics to determine how much this has cost taxpayers, but it has been accomplished, we presume, within the limits ot law. Section 2108 of the Revised Statues of 1894 and Section 8080 R. S. 1881, read aa follows: "Whoever, being the Clem of any of the courts of this State, County Auditor, County Treasurer, Recorder, Sheriff, or the deputy of any
who vji num inucers, practices law in any of the courts of this state, shall be fined in any sum not more than five hundred dollars, nor less than twenty-five dollars." Under the above section a lawyer may be elected to a county office, but must quit practicing as ioon as be eqters upon its duties.
county I will endeavor to the best of my ability to perform all the duties r quired of me, and accoino date the public in every way ks sible. If 1 am elected I will attend strict-
to the duties of the olhce mvself

-vu i. o. mo i , muxes u a nne oi from 2fi to $50 J for a county of-
ticer to practice law. Many falsehoods are being circulated about me, among whu h is that if 1 am elected Auditor I will have Mr. Isidor Schuhmacher foi my deputy. This is false and the persona who started it know it to be such. If I secure the olhce 1 will have for my deputy only an old line democrat, who has always been in line with democratic teachings, whose reputation for honesty, integrity and fair dealing has never been questioned. Remember that many false and idle stories will be circulated as the close of the campaign draws near. These should make no impression on the minds of the people, as they are omy told for the purpose of inlluenci ag the voter. Remember the "Ring" are making a terrible tight to retain the Auditor's ottice, and the "Signal," the "Ring" organ, goes into a fit almost about the fact that the "Court House gang" are about to lose the Auditor's office. The people should bear in miud that with the defeat of my opponent the "Coun House Ring" receives its death blow, and that there is nothing on earth that this crowd will not do to retain the offices. The "Court House Ring" does not include all county officers, but is socalled because of its members in and out of olhce, claim to own the Court House and have dictated how county affairs should be managed. In this tight we should lay aside personal feelings, and stand shoulder to shoulder against the "Ring Rule, Bosses and Bossisra." This is a tight of the entire people of our grand old county against the lavored few, who have held for many years, and still hold, the good oltices of the county. You should remember that if the "Bosses ' win this tight, it gives them a stronger hold on the offices, and it will be almost impossible to ever put them out. I wili sav this much to the people of DuboL county, that if I am elected Auditor of said county and do not reduce the running expenses thereof, I will never be a candidate tor re-election, and I further guarantee that the books of said county will be thoroughly investigated. An investigation of the books is just wh it the "Ring" don't want, and for this reason are fighting me so hard, as if their very existence depended upon my defeat. M. A. Sweeney.

TO wing to the way the

aged, Dubois county will have no member in the next Legislature. It seems with a Senator and Representative both to elect the committee ought to have secured one for this county. It is rumored, however, that Jay B. Schmidt is talked of for one of the places.
