THE MITCHELL MuSs

Mcbride Is Showing Nerve and Trouble

A Mitchell. S. D.. gentleman told some
interesting facts in connection with the
1ificulty over the sacking of the Mltchel
Mail office last week. For obvious rea-
sons the information has heretofore been
suppressed. Among those who partlcl-
pated in the destruction of the mall once
were officials of the United States land
Office at Mitchell. In retaliation, friends
of Mcbride, the owner of the ruined plant
have prepared atfidavits, which are <lull!
corroborated, detailing at length the part
taken by the federal officials in the work
of destruction, and these have been sent
to the commissioner of the general land
Office at Washington, the intention being
to procure the removal of the officials II

been made to the postoffice department.
of the part taken by him in the deplorabie
affair. Still another of the active par
Elephants held the position of assistant
attorney general Of South Dakota. II Is
said that upon learning that Complaint
would be lodged with the attorney gen
eral, lie resigned. His resignation was
accented the day before the attorney gen
ol al received the complaint against him.
or. it, is asserted, he would have been re-
moved. A few Of those who assisted in
destroying the newspaper office now pub
.Iicly express regret for their action, while
others still believe that their summary
course was fully justified. Mr. Mcbride.
who is at present at Plankinton, has de-
termined to return to Mitchell in the neal
future and re-establish the Mall. just
what the ultimate result of this action
will be is difficult at this time to decide.
It is certain, however, that the strife will
be continued with renewed vigor and bit
terness but what the end will be no one
can even predict
Friends of Mcbride now say that q
short time prior to the sacking OF his
office he had decided to leave Mitchell
this spring and go east to engage IN the
newspaper business, having been offered
his choice Of position on New York
Cincinnati or Chicago daily. II Is also
stated that an offer to compromise the
bride of the sum Of s., 900 in cash was re-.
iected by him. and that he proposes to
prosecute the destroyers Of his newspaper
plant to the bitter end. Conservative
newspaper men place the value of the
ruined outfit at not less than $4,000. 1t
