The Washburn Leader, one Of the
poorest apologies for a local newspaper
published in the state Of North Dakota,
every week prints one Or two columns
Of slush concerning one Of Mclean
rOunty's most honored citizens and bus
1ness men, Mr.. Theo. J. Haugeberg, be-
cause Mr.. Hau2eberg went bail for a
poor friendess boy who was accused OF
stealing and illegally branding horse,
and against whom the sensuous and
iliterate manager Of the Leader, has an
inherent hatred. Not feeling satisfied
with the limited publicity which the
Leader can give the scurri!ols and in
decent anatllen& published III is col
umns, the Leader man hires such pllanl
tools as EtYeeter Of the lannon's County
RpcorC. to rehasil his abuse Of Fir
f!augeberg, with view Of lowering Mr.
Huuy-b4rg in the estimation Of the peo'
ole. in that section of the Missouri slope

Leader sends out against TheO. J, HaHge'
Der. ONLY >leya,es him in the opinion
of those Who know hiul best.

The South Dakota legislature has

the correspondent 81. Leslie Tomllnson)
OF the Argus Leader. His~sole ambition
at present, AS it always has been, ls to
kill off Senator Pettlgrew, and he has
started in with his usual tactics OF Great
ilg j .~alously and dlscord, il this can be
done. The Argus Leaders first move Is
TO bring out State Seuator Palmer as a
possible dark horse" for the United
States 6, natorship in order to create dis
cord IN the silver forces OF Mlnnehaha
county, and there Is no invention or
fabricaticn the AL. will not re sort to-,
IN order TO make It's charge appear
plausible. 1t ls the most uLscrupu'-
obs and unblushing liar OF any paper IN
the state and wholly unreliable where it
sees a pecuniary interest OF its own or It's
n ,ighbor at stake. 1t is never so much
at TO re as ahel trying to rui l som ) one
else and it has no conscience In its
m a q to attain an end. Hence it's &C
counts Of legislative or political doings
are to be thoroughly Suited as to the
Ais motives before any reliance can
BE- placed upon them. It's sensational
reports in regard to senatorial intrigues,
bossism OF this one and THAI one,
schemes for robbing the state, etc, are
nearly all pure fabricatioDs Of Tomfin-
sons Invention and designing lmaglna-
ION, u knowing the source, an, OF 9
would be u simpleton, indeed, who
would be misled by them. To live in
such AN atmosphere Of dupllcity al! the
while is to put Il beyond the pale OF
honest reasoning or action, aud hence
the only excuse for Tomlluson's false
hoods is that he could not be honest il
he tried.
