Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1895-03-07

The leaders of the populist party
have always harped 1--WE don't say be-
lieved) in the reduction of salaries. 1t
is strange to say that when bill is
introduced to cut the salaries the only
man to kick, in Phillips county. is our
efficient Superintendent, j. Nj. Tad
lock who by the way is pop, the re-
publican officers made no objections
whatever, while our representative,
H. p. Andrews shows that he is with
the majority of voters by supporting
the bill.-KGlUin Globe.
The Globe in making the above
misstatement was mislead by the Dis
patch Of this city, as the following
statement will show:

The Burr Oak Herald was repre-
sented on the late editorial excursion
by a minister of the Gospel In a
letter to the paper he says the chief
diversion of the "boys" was playing
high five" and consequently he
wasn't in 1t. He says: IF there is
another Christian on the car he
had hid himself among the stuff
for it is as yet impossible to find
him by his actions" This is bad;
very bad If the gang can't 60 out
without acting like a crew Of untu-
tored heather they should be made
to stay at home and wash rollers
Do,Uns Times. The kick on card
playing came with poor grace from
the HeralPs representative, for was
he not sailing under false cOlors in
palmiDg himself off for an editor?
"A few of our neighboring news
papers are publishing what purports
to be the postal laws regarding sub
scrlptions, Attorney General Thomas
says that no such laws exist, and that
newspapers printing these may he
prosecuted for attempting to obtain
money under false pretenses, provid-
ing the editor knows that these laws
have no exlstance as laws or Judicial
decisions.
We thought we had big scoop"
this morning when we saw lot OF
coffin boxes piled out IN front OF Perry
Crookham's shop, and supposed that
wholesale murder had been commit
ted, but on inquiry found that Perry
was only making lot of boxes for
the future demands of o. e, john
ston's customers.
