A County Out of Debt.

Wabash, Ind., June 22.-Wabash county is out of debt, owing no man a dollar. The funded indebtedness of the county was liquidated long ago and the floating obligations for the last year have been trifling. Yesterday County Treasurer Dutton redeemed an order for $998.17 issued to the Wabash Bridge and Iron company, in settlement of a bill which had been sold to M. Rosenthal, of Peru, Ind, leaving the books clear. The county has a big balanoe in bank. The county has never had a democratic county officer.
