EDITOR JOURNAL:-In "a recent is
sue Of the Ellsworth Cleaner (an OBJ
scure sheet, purporting TO be published
in Pierce county, there appears very
scurribus attack upon the Pierce Co
Board of Supervisors, and individual
members thereof, in relation to
county printing. 1t seems hardly fair
to Occupy any of your valuable space
in replying TO such an unjust and I'M
warranted ebullition of personal spite
and malice. Some misrepresentation,
however, of the true situation, may
rest in the minds of some, hence with
your permission / will state briefly the
facts as they appear.
For many years the county board
proceedings have been published in
both ,he Pierce Co. Herald and the
River Falls Journal for much less than
one legal rate, which arrangement mas
been very satisfactory to the tax
payers, as the combined circulation of
these two papers reaches nearly every
family in the county. During the last
annual session of the County Board
the Qentiemdaly editor of the Cleaner
handed to Supervisor Pierce sealed
envelope, requesting HMM case the
subject of county printing came up
TO present il to the board FOR its con-
sideration. Nothing on the subject
having been introduced, the COM
munication was on Saturday morning
laid on the clerks table with other
papers and lost sight of.
III the Cleaner man were one-half
the intellectual giant he evidently
thinks himself he would have known
that it was no part of the Co. Clerks
business to introduce new business
for the county board TO act upon.
Hence all his structures upon Mr..
Jenson's official acts are wholly with
out cause, and entirely unjustifiable.
AS to Mr.. Quinn's communication.
1t was in the nature OF a suggestion
to the county board as to their duty
in the matter OF county printing, and
brief lecture, also, for having-as he
claims-preyiouslyd done business in an
Illegal manner. AS will readily be
seen, there wac no proposition made
to do the printing for any specified
sum, or even that he desired to bid
for the work. There was simply moth
ing for the board to take action upon,
unless it had thought proper TO record
a vote of thanks to the learned gentle
man for his advice and information.
The situation then was this: No
member manifested any desire To
pump life into a twice defunct little
concern, like the Cleaner, at the eX-
pense of the county. There was, how
ever, unanimous sentiment in favor
of placing the proceedings of the
board before the largest number OF
taxpayers at the lowest reasonable
price.
The charges made by the Cleaner
man are altogether too silly to be
noticed in detail. and the article OF
itself is sufficient condemnation of the
author in the minds of all fair mind.
| ed, intelligent people. The county
board acted with entire fairness and
Gnanimity in the matter; the mem.
Der from the Sd ward of River Falls
did all he agreed to do; the county
clerk performed his entire official
duty; and as for the writer hereof, he

year at the NJ. Z. church. A congre-
CATION which the pastors said was the
largest that had ever greeted them on
such an occasion, listened with close
attention to a sermon that the people
pronounced one of the very best they
had ever heard from their pastors on
such occasions. Rev. G.. u. Mcintosh
was the speaker of the day and mis-
theme, 1.-THE Mission of America"
His sermon was eminently instruc-
tive and practical, his central thought
being that America has been called by
Providence to the great task of solv-
ing the problem of how to reconcile
personal liberty with public order.
L hankfulness for this destiny and for
the progress already made toward It's
solution was a forcible inference. A
collection of so was taken for the
poor of this city.
