Green River Republican January 26, 1888
“Fish” Cook, of Warren county is championing a bill which proposes for 
the county instead of the state paying for the record books.  This would 
work a hardship upon the poor poll-tax payers.  The books are mainly to 
keep a record of property, etc., and there is a tax of 50 cents on each 
deed mortgage (except chattel under $40) and suit to pay this expense and 
it over pays the cost of the books. Now the “Cook” proposes to make the 
counties pay for the books without repealing the above mentioned tax on 
deeds, etc. If the bill will give the county this revenue we vote “aye” 
otherwise “nay”
