CONUORD, MARCH 16, 1805.
ASTKIKIXCJ CONTRAST.
During the last campaign the Fu.
sioaiats abused tbe Democrats
roundly for extravagance, v. One of
the charges madcf was that the
wicked Democrats ' appropriated
money oat of the State Treasury to
pay men w ko were contesting for
seats in the Legislature, They took
the high groupd that every contest
ant and contf-stee ought to pay his
own expenses, as every litigant in
the courts is lorced to do, and that
when they came into power 'they
would put a stop to this shameless
waste oi the people's money.
They came into poer. Let us
see how they keep this promise.
Two years ago the Democratic
Legislature appropriated $200. to
pay the expenses of contestees.
This Legislature appropriated 3,
262.37 to pay contestants and con
testees.
r
They spent $3,062.37 more on
this item than the Democrats.
This h the difference between
promiee and performance of the two
Legislatures.
