The New Ulm Post, which we severe
" censured a few weeks ago for becom-
ing altogether too officious, or as we
may call it in plain English, to make it
perfectly understood, ''stuck up', was
very i'll at ease ever since, and laying
for us. Last week it could no longer
restrain its anger and pounced on to us
with loud halo, freeing itself of some
superfuous wind and making itself
again, as before, the laughing stock of
its readers.
The occasion was our neglect to copy
one of its locals. which had been spun
out the week before TO considerable
length, and which referred to the open
ing of the quarries at Red Stone some
time in the future, In not copying the
item we so surprised .and vexed our
contemporary as to cause its bellicose
sally, and we are therefore forced to
use Our valuable space for snort dis
cussloh and criticism or the POSTS tao
tics OF late
1t has been an open secret that the
New Ulm Post has long been a literal
translation of the Review, from which it
copied quite all items of local news,
and which it initiated in many respects.
This proceeding did not datter US, but
made us smile, and really we could not
well blame our dear contemporary for
such a course, as we had the advantage
in coming out ahead with our report SO
much sooner. Otherwise the Post might
have been forced to have something or
iginal once in a while. In not resorting
to the same tactics we had heaped upon
us last week the harsh censure OF the
Post, and our life's hopes are therefore
blighted, our heart is wounded and
