The bologna sausage wrapper across
the way Wien speaking Of the CHRONICLE
last week says that it has lost lone hun
dred subscribers in the last few weeks"
Tho assertion il gross, prcmcditatcd,
unmitigated, bald untruth. The CHRoNI-
Gle has not lost half dozen subscribers
since the first issue of the Times bant-
ling. He further states that the most
familiar sound" in the CHRONICLE Office is
stop my paper" The last assertion is
a base lie am the "Sweitzcr kase" editor
knew it at the time he wrote it. The
fact is that we have only lost tUo sub
scribers since the arrival of our friend
from Marshalltown with the material for
his vile rag. One Of those two is gen.
t.eman Of the bOul bon school, owner of
the building in which the saloon organ
is located, and we have heard it said, .
stock holder in the concern. The other
was the Greeley Of the Independent, the
''eye Sore" who not only stopped the
CHRONICLE, but shortly afterwards cheat
ed US out of $500. These two are the
only subscribers whom we have lost In
the time stated We are receiving new
subscribers every day. Our honest circu-
lation is increasing rapidly, and that with
out sending out four or five hundred
gratuitous copies every week rs our neigh
Dor does to lay around loose in the post
Offices and in the fence corners of the
county where they are left and thrown
with disgust, by the parties to whom the
worthless sheet is sent. We have heard
that TON Pepper the worst liar of rec
ord, was kicked out of the region of the
damned because of his ability to out-lie
his Satanic majesty. We would suggest
TO our QuOndam friend that he and tom
Pepper" procure bushel or two of brim-
stone and seek some far-off locality in
empty space, and start new kingdom in
opposition to the historical Hades. There
would be no danger Of any body from
this neighborhood coming up to see him.
let al me to stay permanently. The last
issue Of his immoral sheet shows c0nclu-
sively that he cannot be excclled in lying
b. any person, not even the Aforesaid
Tom.

Birds of feather flock together" This
is proven true by the position of our
neighbor in publishing the communica-
ton Of the three blatant scoundrel pro-
prietors of No. IS last week. While the
CHRONICLE was denouncing the scamps
and publishing their business, that any
person who might chance to see our paper,
and read what we said about them would
be put upon their guard, and not deal
with them, our neighbor knowing that
what we said was true, allowed them to
carry on their swindling operations with
out word Of warning to the farmer.
This is the way the Democratic organ looks
out for the the interest Of the poor
farmer"

wonder how this description suits such
editors as Waldo NJ Potter, Judge Clag-
gctt. Judge Thayer, Richardson Bros, Jno
Mahin, A. II. Neidig, Judge. Frost,
"Ret" Clarkson, AL. Swain, and hosts OF
others whom we might mention. We
admit the description would apply with
peculiar force to the editors Of the hide

One Of our Toledo boys got into trouble
at Tama City last Saturday. We are not
DESTROYS Of parading the msfortunes of
others only so far as it is necessary to
keep up our local columns for the benefit
Of home patrons. We do not make a
practice of mentioning names unless in
aggravated cases. It is not our object TO
aid in dragging men down after they have
once commenced to fall. We would
much rather lend a helping hand to lift
him up if he will permit US to do SO. In
this case one Of our young men who has
resided in this place for q number Of
months past who had hitherto for aught
we know kept sober, in an evil hour per-
mitted himself to taste of the fiery liquid,
which heats the brain and body, and ex..
cites to frenzy by intoxication. While
under the influence of drink he went to
Tama City. After arriving there he con
tinued his spree and finally got into row
in one of the numerous hell holes Of that
village, and was forcibly elected there
from. The City Marshal hearing of the
trouble repaired to the place and finding
him intoxicated arrested him. He took
him to the Mayors Office for hearing,
and while standing at the outer door talk
ing the matter over, the Marshal request.
ed him to be seated. The prisoner did
not heed this request 40 readily as the
officer desired, whereupon the Marshal
/ - t1No c1~ - =
the matter when the prisoner struck him
in the chest. This excited the ire of the
officer who raised his cane and felled the
lad to the side walk by blow on the side
Of the head making wound about two
inches in length, though not deep or dam
gerous The officer then called for assist
ance and amidst considerable scrambling
conveyed the prisoner to the Calaboose
where the wound was properly washed
nd dressed by physician who was i'm
mediately called. His friends in Toledo
were notified of the affair, and went down
with hack, settled his fine Of 81 and
brought him home sober, and we trust q
wiser man for his experience. 1t is shame
to see one Of the most quiet, non-aggressive
citizens of our town give way to the cup
when he knows that he is but crazy man
under the influence Of intoxicating liquors.
We are informed that this young man laid
the foundation for his spree at the doggery
Of Hans Kleunder. This should be looked
after, and if that worthy sold him beer
while he was intoxicated, he should be
prosecuted for the Offense criminally In
closing We would ay nat the assault q
our estimation was unwarranted. Yet the
Marshal is good fellow, and worthy
gentleman, but rather quick tempered
He should exert himself to control his
temper little better in the future.

Our Toledo neighbor again selects some
of the friendly names, and epithcts that
we are compelled to use when trying to
compete with such bestial carrion as he
is and says-'How the editors self res
pect did overcome him." The article
which he clipped, and thus comments on
was written in answer to the smut mill of
lama City and was very appropriate in
the sense in which it was written as well
as in general sense when our columns
are compared with it and with those of
our opponents. We have merely accept
ed the situation that our doughty COMPETE
tors have placed us in by their scurrilous
assaults, and if our patrons will bear with
us for the time we will cndeavor to reply
to such thrusts if we can do so with Q
semblance of decency.

We hear it rumored from pretty good
source that our Toledo ncighbOr has
barely one hundred legitimate subscribers
to his free whiskey organ. We suspect
that the rumor is not far from correct.
We know from reliable authority that he
is sending out large numbers of his COM
mune sheet gratuitously through Tama
county. Many Of the farmers refuse to
take them out of the Office. We know of
no less than dozen post-off1ces in the
county that each have a half bushel Of
them which have been refused and they
still keep coming. Quite : number Of
the parties to whom the worthless rag
Is sent take it out Of the ofIlce not know
ing that they will be liable to pay for Il.

assertions without agaiD vising with his
mutual friend Tom Pepper
