Hi ictfttttttttratutttt lotice to Candidates The Record will print your an nouncement from now until conven tions are held for $3.00. This will carry with it the privilege of your friends writing short letters in your behalf. We showed week before last that there was $3980.99 ot the money thnt was levied to pay on the old debts of the county had not been paid int" the treasury and we auked the Eagle the following question in reference to it : "We would like to ask the Eagle, the mouthpiece of the Court HouaeRing. if that $3936.99 haB been collected, and if it has been collected how long has it been col lected and ih whoso hands has it been all the tira and why it U that the GIANT COMMISSION ERS do not collect the 2 per cent per month on the same as required by law.' The Eagle last week, instead of answering the question, tried to make it appear that the law did not require the sheriff to make set tlement till the first of September. Our understanding ot the law is different to that and will tho Eagle please refer ua to the clause or section of the law that allows the sheriff to hold the public mon ey till the first of September? The Engle professes to answer all questions, will it p'caae answer this one ? We do not make any in sinuations as to whether the sheriff will settle in full or not as the Eagle tried to infer that we did by our question, but the law requires the sheriff to make sworn reports on the first Monday of each mouth as to the amount of pub'ic funds he has on hands. The people have a right to know whether that amount of money has already been collected or not and if it Eaa, in whose hands is it. If the Eagle proposes to answer questions why not answer as to when this money was collected, if it has been cotleoted, and ' if it baa not been collected It will be no barm to let that fact be known. When the writer for the Eagle becomes a little more acquainted with the people of Madisou he' will find out that they are not to easily duped by great guftoee being made over questions instead of plain straight forward answer . being given to them, ;'. . . i ,, t; We see in Treasurer Roberta report in thia iesue of thejwper rh item, "By paid out in the month of July 2837.18" but there ia nothing to show to- whom that amount was paid or for what pur pose it was paid. W presuoia it was paid out on proper vouchors but the law requires the report to be itomixed and ' that every man who geta a dollar of the pubhe tuuds his name shall appear In tha report 1 be people are reading all these reports in The Record and they have no objections to seeiag.tha reports itemjsed. teiler, nave lopy inyvi-jreuoniio, "eif-a to whom that f 2S37.18 was paid.

S.-Rollins did not have a proposition submitted at the same time and al the com missionen did not adopt part air. Kollms' plan and also part the plan ol Mr. Hendricks as the recomendation wnich vw$ sent the legislature 7 Being that nr. Hendricks is so free to place tne responsibility of the law we would like to haye an answer to the fore going question. We would like to ask Mr, Hen dricks if it is not a fact that he, LMeesrfl. Geo. H: Soiatberi, -T, S, Rollins, I. N. Ebbs, J. ML Gudger, W, M. English and Ws H. nice were in a conference in? the othce of Pritchard & Rollins jut before the meeting of the last Geneia' Assembly discussing some measure to te presented to the Legislature ? And if.it was not a proposition to bond the county or to levy high taxes, will he please tell us what it was that they were all discussing? A falis Zmwtssloa. 1 dislike very much -to have my private matters dragged into a pub lie discussion, but 'he effort of the Eagle to.make a fale impression laat week by charging that I had only paid my poll tax before the first day of May to keep from beins disfranchised and did not pay the remainder till last week, makes it necessary for me to make a simple statement of the facts in the case. Dntk.Ath.l.ixf Marn 1 nniH my taxes, all that was charged to mAinNn 1 tnvnshin. amnuritinir to 37 85 and the stub book of the tax collector will show as much. But bv mistake two pieces of land bad not been brought forward from the old list to the new and was not chare jd with my other I taxes. However. I discovered the mistake myself and went to the register Of deeds and had them charged to me on tne dooks ana 11 paid them on July 21st. Rut whv was it that the Court House Ring, through its mmith. piece, the Eagle, irid to leave the impression that I had only paid off my poll tax to keep from being disfranchised? Why did it not want to let the people know just how the matter was without trying to fool them ? It is perfectly plain that it is trying to dodge the issue of publio matters and get the people to take up private dealings of individuals and get them to vote from their prejudices instead of voting for the best interest of the county. If I were bo disposed I could call to the attentiou of the people republicans high up in their coun cils who did only pay their poll taxes and. leave 'all their other taxes unpaid at the time, but I do not allow myself to be drawn into any such a low controversy. If the writer of that article were only acquainted with the people of Madison county he would know that they could not be imposed on wjth any such Himiey arguments. But not being acquainted with them, he seems to thinkr lhat they are a set of ignoramuses and that they will drink . down t without questioning it anything that comes from a republican paper, v He will learn better before he stays here long.

Thia would indicate that Mr. Yee Lee is a pretty "slick duck." The Eagle seems to class me among the claim speculators of the county. By referring to the official list of claim holders you will find that I own the f-uormous amount of $109.89 a part of which was for services rendered as chair man of the county Board of Elec tions and a good portion of the remainder was claims of judg s and registrars for holding last election aud which the commiss loners agreed to pay off in the spring of 1901, but as jet they aie not paid. No, Mr. Eagle, it you wUl have your GIANT COMMISSIONERS to pay this claim which is their own current, expenses I will not only take the . amount actually paid, but will go yon one better and discount my claim" ten per cent in addition to leaving oO the interest - This proposition is odered in good faith and will be accepted wbether-any other claim holder does or not.
