penses in every county in the terri-
tory. and especially in Logan county.
In Logan county the republican board
of county commissioners used the
greatest economy and have made a
wonderful showing in reduction of
county expenses. The old demo-pop
boaid of county commissioners left
hanging of bills contracted prior to
January 1, 1895, and which" the new
board had to pay, including
the amount necessary to run the coun-
ty up to July 19. 1895, when the levies
made under the new economical laws
of the last legislature could be legally
drawn upon.
Now note the change. Levies were
made in 1895 antl 1890 as follows:

penses were less than $27,000, leaving1
about $5,000 of surplus to be applied
to the expenses of this year. Of the
levies for 1S9'., $7,773 were expended
for bridges throughout the county,
greatly improving the roads upou
which the farmer must haul his pro-
ducts to market. Taking this amount
paid for bridges from the total of $27,-
000 expended f« r general purposes by
the county during- the fiscal J year
1895-0, and it shows that the actual
expenses of the county were less than
$20,000, or about $4'),000 less than in
any previous year. Is this not a mar-
velous saving for the tax-payers of the
county?
Tax-payers, do you went to turn
Logan county back into popocratic
hands?
Col. Johnson, in his speech here
Tuesday night, said "did you ever
