Of all tlie cool deals that has been called to our notice for some time, was the fact that a man who had pur chased some groceries from the parties who have been humbugging our farm ers with their sugar bait lately, called on some of our merchants to borrow money to pay for what lie had bought of the men who kept no book account nor took produce in exchange.

Who runs Holt county? Is it a one man power, supported by a gang en riched by spoil, or is it the people. The decision of Judge Harrington in the case of The Frontier against Treasurer Cronin, to compel him to comply with the order of the county board, upholds the contention of County Attorney Mullen that he is supreme, the people have no voice in county affairs and the supervisors who represent them are figureheads. If such is the law why not do away with the board of supervisors and let Mul len run the county. The office of sup ervisor was created by our legislators for the purpose of giving the people, through them, charge over county affairs and gives no man power to ab rogate the rights of the people. One of the duties of the board, which has not been nullified, is to pass on all claims against the county and they will undoubtedly investigate the legal ity of the Independent bill for print ing that was done contrary to the resolution adopted by them at the April session before allowing the same.—The Graphic.
