It was the Bathgate Sentinel that
first suggested tho idea of having the
printing office Of the official paper 10.
Gated at the court house. To accom-.
plish this it will certainly be necessary
to send some man like Mr.. LaMoure
to the legislature. The Sentinel's
scheme is to get Mr.. LaMoure elected
as councilman, II. r. Vaughn as
county treasurer, j.. A. Armstrong
register Of deeds and in due course of
time some staunch LaSloure men on
the board Of county commissioners.
Then The Sentinel might be moved
right into the court house and realize
it's dream Of \ happy family.

We have heard y number Of inqui.
ries as to who wrote the letter signed
by "Jastice" in the st. Vincent New
Era. Who he is does not matter.
What he is is very evident from the
profanity, vulgarity and blasphemy
that breaks out in spots all through
tho communication. And the Bath.
gate Sentinel did not know any better
than tn reproduce that vile production
thus showing what kind Of literature
the editor of the Sentinel thinks is
most suited to the columns Of his
paper.

Mr.. LaMoure is a man Of large ex.
perience. He appears to have had an
extensive experience in manipulating
. certain class Of newspapers. The
following from the Grafton News and
Times is instructive:
In April 1883, Mr.. Judson LaAfoure
expressed his ideas about newspaper
men to q reporter Of the Fargo Argus:
II have never taken much stock in
these fellows, my experience having
been that a majority Of them can be
bought for = years subscription to do
any kind Of dirty work demanded"
