PERVERSION.
Misrepresentation, wh;h-r in
tentional, or the result of earelf--
ness or ignorance, is deplorable. V
intentional, it ia malicious and has
for ita purpoee the injury of another.
It works ham to a just cause, and
an honest advocate will t-hun it.
The acts of the county court anl
roidmasUr for DeDton county have,
probably, been the subject of more
misrepresentation than any matters
ofpublio interest in recent years.
Our esteemed contend poiary has
stood sponsor for this misreprcsers
tation by publishing it. and ie,
therefore, accountable. I' pur
poae, if it have any, ij the renioval
of Roainiaater Smith." If then our
contemporary has good end suffi
cient reasons, as specified in the
law creating the office of rnadmas
ter, for the removal of that officer,
it should name them. If it is com
pelled to resort to misrepresenta
tions to accomplish its purpoee, its
posi'.ion is untenable and open to
censure.
At the June term of commission
ers court, subscription papers, rep
resenting contibutiona, of more
thin $1,100 in labor for improve
ment of roads, were presented. The
patitioners asked lh court to con
tribute a like amount in cash fiom
tie general funds of the county,
anl reserved the right to ipply the
work where they t hose. The court
referral these petitioners to the
roadmaster, as by law required
Roadmaster Smith saw, that to
grant these petitions would have
the effect of a general order and es
tablish a precedent that would be
at once unjust and unbusinesslike.
In his report he said:
"I beg leave, also, to say as roadmaster
of the county, the proposition does not
maet with my approval, unless the
amounts sulsmbed by the various peti
tioners be paid in cash instead of labor,
for good reasons which I will explain to
your honorable body should you desire
it."
Judge Woodward thought it un
business like to appropriate money
frm the general fund for road
building when almost the entire
gum resulting from the 2 mill tax
fjr that purpose was lying in the
treasury untouched, so he told the
supervisors to use the funds to their
credit in the treasury, and if these
were exhausted before the July
term of court, to continue the vol
unteer work and the court would
contribute an equivalent amount
in rash. This has alwavs been the
policy of the court.
The supervisors did as instructed,
and during the July term, it ap
pearing that the amount arising
from the 2-mill tax levy and also
the poll tax had been nearly all ex
pended in road districts No's. 7, S,
9, 14, 16 and IS, by road supervi
sors in each of said road districts,
TilE COURT MADE INQUIRY OF Road
master Smith if more work was
necessary to put tho roads in good
repair for winter use. Mr. Smith
replied in the affirmative, and rec
ommended that when the volunteer
WJrk, subscribed by the residents
of said road districts, had been ex
pended in the districts wheie sub
sribed. and. the same certified to by
the road supervisor of the said dis
trict, than and in that event the
ro id supervisor be authorized to
1 1 A.. ...
expeni a uriner uui. u ri
ceed the amount subscnoed, as
shown by said subscription papers,
which should bo paid out of .the
genjral fand of the county.
This was in accordance with the
long established policy of th court
in accordance with the promise of
Julge Woodward at the June term,
and with the approval of loaumas
ter Smith. This is a plain, unbi
ased statement of the matter as we
have sathered it from the records
- o
and the officers.
Here is our contemporary's ver
sion, which appeared in its last is
sue.
One of the last acta of Judge Wood-
kard'i county court at its expiring term.
Jvras to make an order granting the road
foetitioos. asking aid from the court on
tbe Farley-Fehler plan. In making the
trder the a I vice of the roadmaster as
virrultd. The recommendation of the
, . -
oadtnaater was that the petition should
ami be granted because the farmers had
lubtcribed labor iistead of cash. Why
Le made this recommendation is not
i . . , ,
known. It cannot ctcu ue guesaea.
What is the reason for this rai3
presen tation and juggling with
kcts? Work has progressed on the
loads as rapidly and with as good
llta as could possibly have bten J
accomplished by any plan that has
been offered. The court and the
roadmaster have shown a dispoei
tion to aid road building to the
greatest extent compatible with bus
iness sense and the law. Work is
continuing unhampered. The peo
ple are catined; the politician?
should be.
Should Claim Damages.
Logan Hays was the victim of
accident, Sunday evening
an
about six o'clock, which fortun
ately resulted in nothing, more
serious to him lhau a sprained
wrist He was returning from
Albany by buggy and team.
While crossing a little bridge
near the ffrave yard, some fonr
miles east of this city in Iinn
county, one of horses stepped on
a plank which broke, letting the
animal's fore feet through the
bridge. As it fell, the other end
of the plank came up and threw
the other hcrse. As this animal
plunged forward, the tongue
came out of the neck-yoke. The
team then became unmanagea
ble, and Mr. Hays was thrown
out, sustaining numerous bruises
and a sprained wrist. After run
ning some distance, the horses
stopped, and when Mr. Hays
came up he discovered that the
one -that had fallen through the
bridge had sustained a broken
leg: and it was afterward shot to
relieve it of its misery. The
team and buggy belonged to the
livery stable ia this city. No
doubt, Liuu county will settle
the damages.
Commissioners' Court.

session Wednesday ano xnurs
day of last week and transacted
the following business:
For good and sufficient reasons,
it was ordered that W. H. Mill

12, 1902, to complete the repairs
on Marys river bridge.
The sum of $13.50 was trans
ferred from road district No. 1
fund to road district No. 4 fund,
it appearing that error had been
made in drawing orders on dis
trict No. 4 fund.
It appearing that the amount
arising from the 2-mill tax levy
and also the road poll tax had
been nearly all expended in road
districts Nos. 7, 8, 9, 14, 16
and 18. bv road supervisors in
each of said road districts, and
that in each case more work is
necessary to put the roads in
good repair for winter use, it
was ordered that when the vol
unteer work amounting in the
aggregate to $1,363.00 sub
scribed bv the residents in said
road districts as shown by sub
scriptions has been expended
upon the roads in the road dis
trict where subscribed, or any
portion thereof performed in ac
cordance with law, and the same
certified to by the road supervis
or of the road district, then and
in that event the road super
visor is authorized to expend a
further sum equal to an amount
not exceeding the amount sub
scribed as shown by said sub
scription papers, the same to be
expended and certified to this
court bv the road supervisors and
paid out of the eeneral funds of

Reduction sale of 15 per cent, on
all mens and boys suits, to make
room for our large fall ordr. S. L.
Kluie.
,Why? Says Taxpayer.
Editor Gazeite: I have
been interested in the articles in
the Gazette relative to the peti
tion of the Coast Land and Live
Stock Company for a reduction
of taxes on the lands of that
company in this count', and for
better information I have looked
on the tax rolls of the county,
and I find there appears to be un
paid on the rolls and due the
county on Ihose-lands the follow
ing amounts:
is 5 - $ 712 12
(IS sold to M. M. Davis)
1Sq7 778 74
1S9S - . 853 SI
1899 - 814 11
1900 785 81
Total amount due the county
for 6ve years unpaid - $3o49 69
But there is credited on the
1900 tax rolls small payments by
several parties to the total amount
of $78.36, leaving a balance due
thecounty of $3,871.23. This is
exclusive of any penalty added,
or costs of any kind, concerning
which I have no information.
That seems to be the net
amount, viz: $3,871.23, which
the Land company wants to have
released on the rolls by the pay
ment of $450. I would like to
get out of paying taxes at the
same proportionate reduction.
What's fair for one ought to be
fair for all.
Why does not the sv rift sell
the property for thefce back
taxes? That is what I am won
dering. If they were put up for
sale like other people's propeity,
they would at least be bid in by
the county
Why have they not ,
been put up for sale before now?
Taxpayer.
