The scurrilous attack on Will
Bouck in a nondescript slouchy
sheet last week was totally uncalled
for. The item which was made
the pretext for the dirty attack
simply advised the voters to elect

was not written by Mr.. Bouck.
The editor assumes the RESPONSE
bility Of that item. He wrote it.
The editor, R. G. Dunn, is respon-
slble for every line that appears in

feels aggrieved can be the Judge
OF bis manner Of redress. We are
always ready and willing to cor
rect q mistake But we have no
apology to offer to any dead-beat

are "avoid personalities, boom

Bouck's interests. He is a bona
tide resident of that town. He is
neither a blackmailer nor a beggar.
Since he became postmaster he has
secured better mail service for
