Columns Of Wind Brought FORTH
We ,As Of Agony and swsGt csi~inate i" cef0""s
Of yavieess Matter.
For a number of months the air OF
the court house has been filed with
threats of one grand expose of villainy
past conception. In the eye OF one IN
dividual who was fair to look upon
and of noble mien, the different coun-
ty officers shook in their boots. Ague
seemed the prevalent disease upon the
appearance of the editor of the only
paper the gods ever breathed the
breath of life into, paper which too
second premium at a fair, where we
are informed, two papers were q Il that
competed. Vengeance is mi' Ie, saith
this paper to the county o. .Acers, un-
less you specially favor me, unless
you give me without O. 1estion all prin-
ting, unless when l lone round, you
bow the knee and ,.eccgnlze in me a
grand mogul. For failure thus to do
l will denou' ICE you as a ring" and
bring upon you everlasting obloquy. l
am the Irgan of the Senter of the
county and will Bran{Dd you in the
estim alton of the people even as did
Sullivan paste Kilrain in the istic
ar ena. And the county officers in
nausea of his pretensions, laughed in
derision. The effort was made, and
10! behold! the Car is first made the
Senter of attack, and then follows in
: weekly succession weakly attacks on
men whose characters shine as the
light of day compared with that of
the liar of Phillipsburg, already with
a reputation in Thomas county second
only to that of the Ananias who
brought him to the county with emp
ty promises he has failed to fulfill.
THOMAS COUNTY CATS CONFESSIONS.
The CAT humbly confesses itself
what the boss organ weuld like to be and
what it and its bosses by fair and
: foul means have striven to have it
become, the official paper of Thomas
county. The CAT humbly confesses
the use of leads in the county and
city printing. Such has ever been the
custom in Thomas county and Colby,
and various other counties and cities,
and such the editor of the boss organ
stated last winter to Commissioners
Pingree and Smith to be all right, and
such is not in violation of any law, as
the editor of the boss organ says he
was informed Ly the attorney general
=. of the state.
The CAT confesses that it has pub
lished final proofs in Thomas county,
and also confesses that Kelley has
failed to obtain any to publish. Kel-
ley made offer to the Colby Democrat
that he would give $3.50 for every
proof notice furnished him by the ed
itor of that paper, and failed to get
any of the notices. Kelley has from
time to time poured out columns of
his waspish, vile personal abuse
against Col. Bacon, he did the same
against Howard Carpenter, and now
. says because he could not buy proof
notices from these gentlemen, and
they were given to the CAT, that he is
showing his republicanism.
THE COUNTY PRINTING.
County warrants were worth SIS
: cents on the dollar when the CAT
made its present contract for the
county printing. 1t entered into that
contract with the county commission
ers. both parties understanding that
the printing should be done as it al
ways had been done in the county.
: and on formal proposition
D The CAT also submitted PROPOSE
, ton for job printing work of the coun-
) ty-the organ of the bosses at the
same time submitted similar PROPOSE
l tions. The county printing was awar-
ded the CAT and the job printing
4 awarded the boss organ.
The Car has performed and will
. perform fully its duties under its con-
tract with the county and the peODle
