Inez Myrtle Callen of Skemoshwosh will
in future act as compositor in the Blad-
der office, versus Mr.. Brown, resigned.
We say resigned but the truth is that
we don't want no more union skunks
in ours. II fifteen cents a thousand is
not enough for men these hard times
then we don't propose to give more. The
Bladder will not be imposed upon and
nues to the line let the chips fan where
they may.
If the dirty thieves and political! ring
sters and carpet baggers from Illinois
and such like, thinks they are any strings
on the Bladder they are badly fooled. We
are in the battle for the people and by
the liberty fires in our hearts intend
to stay there. Moreover such works don't
go no longer. The people in this town are
about fun Of fakirs, and we will not toler,
ate to stand by and see our fellow citl-
zens robbed by others when we are by.

Mrs. T. Corcoran of Mishewashy passed
through here day before yesterday from
Portland where specialists has been treat
ing her for menginetas in her foot, a
serious and complicated matter causing
the greatest concern to the good DANES
relatives. The specialists done the job
in good style and Mrs. c. is now better
in heath than she was previous. The
Bladder got this item the same as 1t
gets all, by solid work ana rustling it,
and it will be noted that our amateur
contemporaries, not one Of them had
line about it. Follow in the procession
gentlemen The public is getting on to
you. and these scoops count every time.

torial heel like worm stung by the lash |
is now, we are given to understand put
ting up schemes to elect Mr.. Spindler to
the job of dog catcher 1t will be noted |
that Spind,er's son was arrested for
stealing last year and whats bread in the
bone wifi come out in the flesh. While |
we do not wish to offend any man we
must say in justice to our constituence
that the son has become a bad egg ana |
while we grieve to bring it up still the
pubic cannot have no use for TIE o+0
man While the suspicion taints him with
a chid of this character.
Next week the Bladder has made all ar
rangements for a sixteen page paper |
which will be butte. The Bladder en-
p.oys more men, pays more wages, and
puts your advertisements in for more |
reasonable rates than any sheet in this
burg and we have got money to say So
The last week seven new subscriptions
was received at our branch office in the
jug saloon, and four of them was in |,
good hard old rye of the right sort. Our |
new press is now being settled for ana
win soon be on the road. The Ge.ay is
caused by the simple reason that we
demand to pay spot cash to the manu-,
facturers and they demand that we give
a note signed by us which they want
in preferment to the coin. However this 1
little matter will be adjusted satisfactory
in a few days. Watch for the Bladder's
sixteen page. She will be peach, of the
first water. The moss grown sheets I!
around us is not in it. Come off.
The Bladder will take care to give from
time to time bono tido information on
the sale of wild cat additions to this I
city. We have the inside track of this |!
business and propose to make the real
estate Sharks put up, or else be exposed /
to the pubic which they are one and all
trying to rope in for suckers. We have |
property what is advertised in this paper
by friends and it is no wild cat addition !
either. Now we will sell this for easy |!
terms, and don't trade through another
sole in this town for all are a gang OF
sAysters and we viii do the square thing
Write to the Bladder for particulars
about setting here, sc, and we will reply |
prompt. When the town fills up we in-
tend to fit out regardless of costs a in |

Our old friend Jimmy Burgess who has
laid off from dealing faro in consequence

so particular about admitting dogs into
their cars and stopped numbering childrep
