SHELPMAN'S SIDE OF IT
(Continued from page 1)
now, in a seeming extremity, public
criticism is being flung at me through
the papers. That in itself would not
be so bad, if it was purged of the aim ’
to mislead the public all through the
article. The fact is. there has not 1
been collected three-fourths of the ‘
amount it says, and as to loss of in- ;
terest, their proposal to pay same eov- *
ers only the county funds, which at J
present amounts to less than $40,(MM), j
And a great amount of this is being ;
paid in scrip, which all know has been
plentiful the last year or two. All of
this, taken in account with the amount
of scrip now being carried on band by
these same ‘'friends'* who see fit to
harass me, would leave a very small I
amount the county would realize on
with their two per cent, as compared
with the $100.00 tlie article in question
tries to mislead with.
On the other hand, the c«unt\ will be
gainer, after all, for the banks where 1
have the deposits have repeatedly as
sured me, in view of the difficult situa
tion 1 was in, that they would pay the
county the two per cent on the county
funds until settlement could he prop
erly made. On account of the differ
ence of the amount of scrip carried by
the other hank wanting the funds so
badly, the county would thus realize
interest on larger balances by thefunds
remaing where deposited.
Besides this, J have cashed without [
discount all scrip and even jury cer
tificates presented, which has not been
done for some time previous, EVEN ]
BY THE INSTITl’TION WHERE
THE COUNT VS FENDS WERE •
HERETOFORE DEI*OSITED. I have '
also made liberal advances to the
state treasury and to various school i
districts of the county most in need.
i dislike very much to ha ve to resort I
to this publicity, but when I am attack
ed with mud 1 feel compelled to throw
it back with the truth about as grace- I
fully as I know how. There are a few |
in this crowd attacking me whom i |
would yet like to number among my j ,
friends, believing ail of them not re- '
sponsible for such methods. But un
til I make my settlement as my prede
cessors have done, 1 shall continue to
place my collections with the friends
who were kind enough t«» make for me ;
the large required bond, feeling under
obligations to them more than simply
the established rule to deposit in the
same place each year, as has been
done.
If this law referred to can still be in
•ffect. WH V H AS S()T Til K (rOlTNTY
SKKX l’AID THE 3i l'KR C’KN'T ON
TALANCKS FOK TUB PAST TWO
r KARS?
Or, can these tnen declare the same
aw ineffective for two years, and then
in their own motion alone, contend it
C<) W in effect?
Beppinp pardon of the general reari
ng public for this imposition, but a
uring you it is with only a desire to
et you right and correctly informed
s to the real conditions, I am, with
i nee re appreciation of the responsi
lility of the position I occupy, as well
s the great number of my friends who

Don’t add to your troubles
the inconvenience of doing
without a Telephone.
There is no department of
business, professional nr in
dustrial life in which it is not
an essential part.
No community, however
small, can enjoy the full ad
vantages of modern life with
out including the Telephone.
By its use to the needs of
humanity it has proved its
claims to rank as one of the
necessaries of life.
The farmer who wants to
make his farm more profit
able and life more pleasant
for his family should have a
Telephone in his home.
