he asserts that we then "vilified and
instlted nearly every man who was

Every old-timer ia this section
knows that the above quotation is
false-but the BULLETIN has. on
several occasions proven the Re-
publican editor q wilful aud malic-
ious falsifer, and il is a waste Of

For the information Of all new

that certain leading Republican.
who etill resides in Mountain
Home, circulated a written petition
in this town asking the people to
boycott the BULLETIN. He sue

only, and several of those eight men
are now, We are proud to say, our
warmest personal friends. II is
also true that we retaliated and
fought those who commenced the
fight against us--yet to-day we can
truthfuliy assert that we hold no
malice against any enc concerned in

that il 10 not only every mans right
but his duty 10 uphold his own To-
cality and his own interests, and we
have no regrets to offer, not even to
say, in the language Of our much
esteemed contemporary, "that we
we're indiscreet in using the words
we did" The old county seat war
is dead issue. What is now de-
sired by our people is for the Re-
publican to prove les recent asser-

Mountain Home from Rocky Bar, /
they will tell all that such action 4
was free Offering on their part and
unsolicited by Us. We now have
that written request Of AZ good men
on our desk and cherish said
friendly document very highly.
The Republican editor is, under
existing circumstances, very unkind
in accusing us Of trying to create a
prejudice against him and all con-
nected with hia paper He made
unwarranted assertions about some
Of our people and said he could
prove them. We asked him TO pro-
dnce his proof. but instead Of doing
so ne drifts off into lengthy TRADE
Of abuse. When he came here from
Wahoo. with 8 collar around bis
neck, we welcomed him through the
columns of the BULLETIN and ex-
tended TO him the right hand Of
fellowship, ct the same time ex-
pressing the hope that we would
pull together for Che interest Of Min
Home and al Fillmore county. He
apparently scorned our kind words
and, through bis paper, ripped us
up the back" 20 severely that we
have scarcely yet recovered. We,
in reply, said he was q stranger to |
us and having no cause could not
be the author Of such personal par
agrapha. He replied that he was
the author and no one else Wei
reminded him Of ''the duties Of all
disciples Of the Holy Saints john
toward each other, but his depraved |
nature overrided al that should be
sacred among men and he contin-
ued his personal abuse. and now,
al this late day he tries TO make IL
appear that the BULLETIN editor il
prejudiced against the Republican
and lite owners and doing them dirt.
The dirt-throwing and throat
cutting" vas inaugurated by the
Republican and not by the ELMoRE
BULLETIN.
We subside. gasping: Tell as who
the parties are that are discourage
ing settlers here and trying to run
out new eomers. Mr.. editor Of the
