Ik it economy to increase the tax

Judge Idiini 'h own wordn the taxpay

Is it economy to dump counties! loads

In it eeonomy to Hpend tho money

Ih It economy to ntfiino to expert th

may know where their money has gon

this refusal in the face of offers by
experts to go over the hooka, taking as
pay ten per cent of the money that they
rnenverf Is it economy, in t ho fiu-o of
popular belief that "something is rot

be ordered?
Promises are one thing. Perform

everyone has seen tho performance
Now we are asked to listen to tin
promise of u retetition of tho past per
formanee.
Judge Dunn lias peculiar ideas whirl)

candidate, fin thinks that equalization
consists in raising assessments fill 12 .'!
per coat. You only have to travel over
the county road between Medford ninl
Jacksonville lo lenrn his ideas on road
making. Has any one morn unseienttfii
or more, ernde methods of making gooil
roaits, or more cross ignorance on th
subject?
Do you want attseNHincnts rained

iiceliohlers k now what is goi ug on -i n
oihir words, "The public be damned.'
Tf you do, vote for Judge Dunn and
the 'gang."
TAXPAYERS SHOULD MEET.
The Conuneicial club of I'cudlctmi
has culled a. monster muss meeting ol
taxpayers of I'matiJIn county for tin
purposn'of discovering what has been
done with county money, 'why taxes an
so high, and why assessments have been
raised.
Nome Hiich meeting should bo culled
fitr Jackson county taxpayers. Th.
whole subject of assessment, eqtmtiji
tion, taxpnyiug and expenditure could
be gone into with profit.
The county board of epuili.at ion
should be furred to explain their so
called equalization the hori.ontnt
jump in valuations ltd 1! ,'t per cent.
They should also bo linked (o explain
why tuxes have crept steadily upward.
in spite of the increase in valuations.
The county judge mid enniinisHioner
should be linked to tell whv thev re
fuse to order an Inspection by export
of comity hooks am) why there has been
no such inspection for twenty years.
How do they know that there is no
shortage in the various departments! It
thero in such a shortage, why should it
bo concealed to benefit hmidsmen at tin
loss of the taxpayers?
Iet the light shine in the dark places
If there has born crookedness, the pub
lie is entitled to know it. If everything
is in apple pio order, the officials them
selves nre entitled to the credit.
Thoso officials who oppose such an
inquiry must have something to con
eeal. What is it?
Why this persistent refusal to ex
pert county records?
This is not a demand, us hii Ashhtnd
organ of thn county ring asserts, sprung
on the ovo of nn election. Thin p.-ipei
has been demanding thin uecoutitiue.
since, last January, and it will ctmlimii
to demand it until the exporting in inadt i
so thoio whose b.oks are crooked hail
better straighten them out. The da
of reckoning is near.
