The PhIllipsburg HERALD in COM
mentlng on what appeared in the Gay
lord Herald concerning the Howell
difficulty says it is glad the Gaylord
Herald lis a republican paper. It is
an evident fact that the PhillIpsburg
HERALD editors are either woefully
ignorant of the manner in which the
Howells conducted their business III
this country, or desire from reasons
best known to themselves to assist in
covering up the matter The Gay
lord Herald believes, like all true re-
publican papers, that wrong should
be condemned, wherever found, and
does not hesitate about doing it.-LOg-
an Republican.
The HERALD cares nothing for the
HowelPs or their way of doing bust
ness. Its sympathy is with the farm
ers and other home people who are
called upon to pay obligations due the
State Bank of this place, which is
compelled to collect all moneys due it,
on account of the position in which II
is placed by the Howell failure
These papers were very silent about
the Howell methods when they were
up, but now they are down, find con
siderable fault with them; when the
Howells get Strengthened out, and
start in business again, they will be
as mum as before. Hit 'em when
they are up, not down.
