The Springdale news., 1890-01-03

ABOUT the drnest aud most scurrilous little item we have seen appear in paper, winch eiims relation 10 responsibility, is the fol- lowing N blch WIS taken from the Rogers Republican oftwo weeks ago:
 The little fellow that runs one side oi the patent sheet do All at Syrlngdale is running over with glee to thInk that his burg k mentioned as point on ale of the most improbable lines of railroad ever thought of by men out side 0t lunatic asylum. But then Me can't blame him, il is the first time the little fellow has had chance 10 see the name oi his town talked on q project of any kind for SO long that We auppost 1t rather upset him. Ills gush Is harm less and oceuplto some ut lhe space that he deVOtes week ln dni Netk out to the senSeleoS tWdddte that he copies loom the Arhdnsds Gazette and other papers ot the 'sCIop order, denOuH- eng ION ell Clayton and other meu who are try Ing to de something Tor tGe = tdte Ill a material Way. and thus giSeS q temporary r lipf to his much tired readers. 4he little fellow would really llke to Lea big seroP editer but he d0n know enough td rise to tLeir questionable attitude and Wll have to control Mmstll With doing a second hand business dealing in thp etiai 0t the pig scFap papers Nd tufe produces some euEioas Efenam- eua They are creatures s9 small tAey can desFoft themselves to their hearts eOh eHt III drap of water and ask tar ne bigger world t9 move in.
 Yes, oar paper was q patent inside at one .lme, that's fact, and the editor of the Republican shows himself to be a man of sa- gaciiy when he found 1t out! We also print our paper, "n d hand press and when necessary we Shuf- ile off eur coat and set type or pull the press, as the case may be. We also very frequently inject it. tie common horse sense and decency in between our column rules, which our esteemed and somewhat irras ci- bIc contemporary, the Republican, would do well to copy after The slurs the editor of the Republican throws at Sprlngdale are contemp= tible to say the lest of them and will not be noticed by respectable people. As for Rogers We have always entertained very hgh opinion of the enterprise displayed by the people of that town, not mem uoning the fact that few real es. tate sharks at that place have nev- CT missed single opportunity whereby .hey might iniure Sprne- dale
 Tne latter portion of the article taken from tLe Republlcan k anus ng; very much SO. In fact we had to smlle when we read 1t. Just what relation the propose new iaiIroad has to do with Clayton and "scrops' We are very much at loss 10 uu- derstand, But our bro- No we will not call bm brother for we do nc wish to be known as so closely related to that species of long ear ed anlmai, Familiarity known as tho jack Ass has been reading the Arkansas Register so much sinee he got to be postmaster at Rogers that he cant think of anything but tscrop, the Arkansas Gazette ani Clayton, and the fact of the matter Is he can't begin the discussion of my subject without getting onto -'scrop papers before he completes it. He even carries it into local affairs. And when Democratic journal casually speaks of Powell Clayton or the Arkansas Register the poor fellow rushes to the front like shouting negro at q camp meeting aud beglns to howl about resurrectlng the past and tbat You will klll the country by driving i'm. migration away from Us! Now why $ this? Why does the editor oflhe Republican want 10 fall in the arms of Powell Clayton and weep? Ii. all originates from the simple fact that he was appointed postmaster at Rogers through the ald and eH. dorsement of this same Powell Clayton, and he fthe editor) was no doubt given to understand that he was at the mercy oi the Boss" and he acts accordingly Clay ton is very exacting and We believe he | was never known to get left ln q trade of this l5lnd and he surely | oHght to be pleased wltb hls loot stool q Rogers
