Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 22, Number 80, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 June 1901 — Prosperity is Starving a Sheriff. [ARTICLE]

Prosperity is Starving a Sheriff.

In reply to a question from a Rensselaer attorney regarding the publication of sheriff sales in Benton county, Win, Mount, the sheriff of that county, writes back and says: “We havent.had a Sheriff’s Sale in this county for so long that I hardly know what paper we publish in. Prosperity has about done away with Sheriff Sales, and the Sheriff too. I would like to get a job pulling sand burrs if you have such a thing in your county. Let me know early.” Your Respectfully. Wm, Mount.
