" He is veritable Nimrod, and never missed

when big deer comes bounding toward him
as il he was fishing for hass--in fact he is the
personification of nerve, He is also a scien-
titc fisherman, and few can handle the rod
or reel as he does. He enters into the sport
whole-soued. Mrs. Cleveland too, has a
knack at trolling for pickerel which is simply
artistic she is one of the few women whom
have met who knows how TO fish. She
took real delight in the sport and landed
many fine bass floundering in the boat.

RIGHT WILL MIN.

The News is greatly distressed because
the editor of the [NTER.O OCEAN has en-
gagged in several "bitter personal fights
since he came to Dakota. We regard
it as the mission of an honest newspa-
per to attack dishonesty and corruption
wherever found. We found it rampant
at Grand Forks and in the Red river
valley five years ago, and the very prin-
ciples we advocated there then in re-
gard to certain public men have been
recommended and those men are now
relegated to private life. The political
tricksters with whom we have engaged
in "bitter personal fights" are being
forced to the real and better men are
succeeding them. We have never in
/ dorsed q man for public Office after we
found him to be an unfit person to fill
such a trust, and we hope we never shall.
/ For that reason VIC refuse to indorse Mr..
Maher for county treasurer. He has
used his public position to fill his pri'
vate purse at the expense of the taxpay'
ers. He was not satisfied with what the
law allowed him, but tried to get more

SOME n

Two wears have shown that MI. Ma
her is not a lit l to hold the office of
county treasurer. His record IN the H.
legal commissions claims IS enough to
eefeat him, but there are many other
transactions in his official career which
prove conclusively that he is not a prop
er person to have the handling of the
county moneys. A few of these addi-
tional reasons may now be stated.
First, he has not kept his treasurer's
office at the court house as the law d.
reefs, but, on the contrary, has remained
at his own private Office, where his own
private business could be cared for first,
and those having business with the coun.
ty treasurer have been compelled to 60
there to see him.
Second, he has caused county coal to
be hauled to his private Office where il
was used as much in the warming oi
private shins as in the toasting of public
treasury toes.
Third, he caused to be taken from the
court house one county stove which wa
set up in his private office, and is still
there F; and the county commissioners
we're obliged to purchase another stove
to supply the place Of the n so taken
Third, he has paid warrants out o
their order, in violation Of law, and Thu
alone is sufficient to cause his suspen
sion from Office.
Fourth, by his contumelious conduc
in disobeying the board of county com
missioners by refusing to make prope
reports and legal settlements, several ex
ira meetings of the board were nece
sary, all of which cost money which tn
taxpayers must now put up.
Fifth, in the matter of competenc
and that close attention to official bus
ness which the people have a right t
demand of him, the attention of tn
reader is called to the recently publishe
list Of delinquent taxes in which appea

not to exceed $25 per gear as compen-

he was allowed the legal 1925 for that
year, but the board refused to accept

had returned the $50 he had retained

The next legislature should pass an
act requiring county treasurers to sub
init their claims for services to the
boards of county commissioners. 1t is
customary now for %treasurers to help
themselves to the funds, and several of
these officials haye proven to be too lib.
eral in their own behalf. There is no
reason why a county treasurer should
not lay his bill before the board the

upon and allowed by the board and take
