DAVE BLAKELY 1MPALEs BILL KING.
minneapolis Tribune, Friday Evening
The Pioneer Press this morning explicitly
admits that many of its pretended Especial
kilograms from Washington, of which it pub
fishes column or two daily, are not kilograms
at all. A newspaper which will acknowledge
itself guilty of publishing documents received
by mail as special kilograms because other
newspapers do it will domost anything.
BILL. KING CALLS DAVE BLAKELT BATCH OF
FRAUDS"
Pioneer Press, Saturday Morning.
The Chicago Iater-Ocean, which came yes
terday morning, contained a long special from
Indianapolis giving an account of the charges
against Bright, of Indiana, the recently elected
sergeant-at-arr1s of the Senate. An abstract
of this was made by the Tribune and impudent-
~ inserted as special telegram to that paper
from Washington. And so with its whole
daily batch of frauds.
DAVE BLAKELY SPECIFICALLY AND DIRECTLY
CHARGES BILL KING WITH BEING A RASCAL.
minneapolis Tribune, Saturday EVENING"
We hereby specifically and directly charge
that the long statistical Especial which ap-
pears on the first page of the Pioneer Press this
morning under the head of "Crop Statistics, :"
never came over the wires at all; that it was
made up in Washington by the correspondent
of the Chicago Inter- Ocean,; that it was sent to
that paper and to the Pioneer Press ''simulta-
neously'' by nhN, reached the Inte,-Ocean one
day earlier, was published in that paper of yes
terday, and reaching the Pioneer Press in due
course by one days later mail, was published
in that paper this morning. We make the d.
rect and specific allegation, therefore, that this
Especial" never came over the wires at all, and
we challenge the Pioneer Press to produce evil
dence to the contrary.
BILL KING CALLS ON DAVE BLAKELY TO SHOW UP
BUT REFUSES TO DO SO HIMSELF.
Prioneer Press, Sunday Morning.I
The Minneapolis Tribune produces certif-
cate from Telegraph Manager Robertson that
the Especial telegram in yesterdays Tribune
regarding Bright the sergeant-at-arms of the
Senate actually came over the wires, among
others, as special telegram to the Tribune"
That is to say, the Tribune paid for the trans
mission by telegraph from somewhere, ostensi-
bly, from Washington. (if so it paid about Sl5,
before and received in full at Minneapolis in
the Inter-Oceau at 10 o'clock A. M of the day
| when it is alleged to have received an abstract
| of it by telegraph from somewhere, and at
least six hours before the publication of the
Tribune. What the Tribune cannot get Mr..
Robertson to certify to is that the matter
which it has been publishing daily for a week
or two, purporting to be special kilograms from
Washington, ever came over the wires to the
Tribune. The way to settle the matter is to
produce its telegraph bills for the past two
weeks-that will show how many words came
over the wires to the Tribune. The Pioneer
Press does not need to produce any voucher for
the, genuineness of it's specials.
