Concerning the County Doctor.

Concerning the County Doctor.
The Acantha wishes to say, ia
connection with the controversy
with the county physician, that in
so far as we know we stated moth.
ing but the truth in our article OF
two weeks ago, while in the replies
in last weeks Montanian several
glaring falsehoods were told.
There are several persons in
Dupuyer who are willing to make
affidavit that the doctor was In the
town 2 hours or more before he
saw the patient. Link Humble
is willing to make affidavit that on
three different occasions he asked
the doctor and Cramer to drive
faster, and Informed them that the
patient was very low and the chau-
ces were that he would be dead
before they arrived. II the county
attorney did not officially notify
the physician that Legacy was .
county charge. he failed, in our
opinion, to do his duty, as he had
been informed by citizens of this
place that Legacy was without
means. The statements of r. O.
Cramer are hardly worth noticing.
He has admitted that the article to
which his signature was attached.
was written by the publisher OF
the Montaniah; that he had made q
statement concerning the case, to
the editor, ard allowed him to en-
bellish and ornament it as he saw
fit. His statement, however, is
not fair, in any sense of the term.
Either he or the editor of the Mon.
tanian, has maliclously mi,quotea
the editor of this paper. Cramer
did not intimate to US that anv
portion of our article was untrue.
Neither did we say that ssd-n
him, I'll roast him, anyway" or
words to that effect. What va
did say was that we thougnS the
doctor was not getting half what
he deserved. We are still OF that
opini IN. If Cramer wanted to
make fair statement of the case,
why did he not repeat the remark
which he himself made to the doc.
tor at the dinner table that day.
The remark was substantially as
follows: doctor, would very
much dislike to be sick d send
for you to attend me il you stopped
on the way to eat dinner. I might
die before you got there"
The AcANTHA is perfectly will
ling to leave it to the good people
of Dupuyer, who were here on tho
ground and saw all we did, as to
which is right, ht,--ourselves, or those
who made replies in the last Mon.
tanial. The proper authorities
know what has been done and
what has been omitted, and they;
can now act as they see fit. No
official who honestly and squarely
does his duty will ever receive
anything but commendation from
the AcANTAA. We have spoken.
