Oazette:-'We are sorry that we are
unable to return the compliment TO the
HAND COUNTY PRESS. IL 1t dared TO be

would have an individuality. If it were
"tweediedee' Rosenkrans and one or two
others would kick, and il it We're ''twee-
dledum Beasom, Lane. Cutting and few
of that ilk would kick"
All of which argument goes TO prove
tina: INDEPENDENT Rosenkrans is dishonest,
AID that after nominating Independent
Hartley, INDEPENDENT Sweetland can op-
pose him ana be honest! Your honor,

True. the PRESS hasn't as much '.in-
