HOISTING THE
Til AT Bonlon Bowers and his Ashland associates are in
ionf upon hoisting (he black flag of repudiation and
financial depression on Jaekson county is evidenced by
the filing of an injunction suit against tlio Medford bridge.
If the injunction is sustained, I he validity of all of the
outstanding warrants will be questioned, and similar pro
ceedings involve them in prolonged litigation. The effect
is already seen on tho warrant market.
Just how the county can be prevented from spending
money it has on hand. 'or should, by state law, have on
hand, raised bv a law for this purpose, is difficult to see.
aIi Bowers will probably succeed in stirring up a mass of
discord and bitter strife, temporarily depreciate the coun
ty warrants and produce thereby temporary stagnation,
but his of torts it is predicted will be ultimately crowned
with failure and obliquy.
Out of the court proeedings will come a thorough air
ing of the manner in which county funds are handled. The
law is very explicit. It reads:
Section 2957. ' 'County Treasure rs Books, How Kept,
lie shall so arrange and keep his books that the amount
received and paid out, on account of separate and distinct
funds, or specific appropriations, shall be exhibited in
separate accounts, as well as the whole receipts and ex
penditures by one general account. "
Section G320. "The county court or commissioners'
court of each county in the state may lew a tax of not to
exceed ten mills on the dollar on all taxable property of
said county, at the tune ot making the annual tax low
upon the previous year's assessment, 'which shall be set
apart as a general road fund, to be used in the building
and improving the public or county roads or bridges on
countv roads of the county in which the property is lo
cated.'" There was levied a four mill tax for the road fund this
year. Half of this sroes to the road supervisors. The re
maining half, or $76,000 should go into the road fund. Of
this amount $4S,075 has ben collected and should be in the
road fund. Instead of placing it where the law requires,
it has been placed in the general fund, and nearly all ex
pended in redeeming warrants.
If the courts hold that the building of the bridge
is lawful, because money by special levy was raised and
should be on hand, and that the county is not therefore
contracting new and unlawful indebtedness, what will be
the treasurer's position?
If the money has been illegally diverted and spent,
should not the treasurer and his bondsman be compelled
to make it uood? ,

Ream, a local attorney, mourns the

FEW POINTERS
It used to bo In tho good old days
that tho aiinouueineut "Mc In tyre,
pitching for Jacksonville," meant
something It used to intiau so much
In fact, that shivers wont up and
'down the spinal eouls of tho local
1 funs who had wagered a men I ticket
or two on tho homo team. Now It
may have meant something to uo
or two of tho Old Faithfuls- yestor--
d.ijs when Mac walked to tho mound
for Central Point. But something
of tho boy's former prowess was
lunklng perhaps because Cilrley
Wilson wasn't on tho receiving end.
But at that Mac pitched a good game
until the sixth or seventh when ho
weakened. Medford won from Cen
tral Point six to four but sho won
on errors. Not an earned run In the
game.
Now, don't rucks nt tho rest and
think It was a hum gnmo -It wns
and It wasn't'. Technically It was
rotten, bu from a point of fanning
Interest It was good fun throughout.
Old Ike Butler, veteran and atar, Is
enough tt hold a crowd any 'day.
Central Point chased tho first run
around but couldn't hold tho lead.
The teams need practice for when tho
ball got Into play It meant runs.
