whether they want men to go on th reckless and extravagant expenditures in the future as has been done in the past four years. The county commissioners paid thousands of dollars too much for the court house, furniture, &c. The city council paid too much for the water works by several thousand dollars. The same gang" controls both, the same man is “boss” of all. He has certainly spent more money than he ever earned and whatever he suggests, must be done, or they are ’’old fogies” and ! cranks or d n fools or whatever epithet he wishes to‘apply. The people who work and earn their property by the sweat of theif faces do not want extravagance and profligacy to prevail instead of economy in all public affairs.
The Republican, Journal and Sentinel have never dared to raise their voices against this gang because they were afraid they would loose patronage. Let the people be ready with with their silent ballots to say who shall run the county finances for some time to come. Many Republicans.
