What Do You Mean?

The Solomon Tribune ought to be
ashamed of itself for supporting
Squire Lewis for high school trustee.
He may be good enough man in his
way but he is not as good as the Dem

ty News.
Does the News mean to advise Dem
ocrats to support Chris Hoffman who
is opposed to Squire Lewis on the
ticket? II SO, why? Chris Hoffman
has never for minute pretended at
any time in his life to be Democrat.
He is a tiatist, spiritualist, an UNI
compromising Pop with more wild
ideas than the worst of them and is
straining every nerve to get the Pops
in control of the high school to work

teach Populism rather than keep the
school free from partisan bias. Is
that what the Democrats want? The
Tribune is exactly right and is sup

"Most of the larger claims he settled
by trading real estate and when nec'
essary would give cash bonus to
equal the value of the claim against
the bank, in this way all the larger
claims against the bank were settled
in few weeks.
"In with the assets we took store
that the president of the bank, W. c.
Pierce had been running and we
placed a man in charge Of it and ran
it for several weeks, doing very good
business. Several weeks ago the man
in charge thought the business was
Stacking up and shut up the store for
several days, giving it out that he
was marking down the prices, when
in fact he raised the prices on many
goods. The store was opened and in
two days we cleared Sl,400. The
bank will be settled up some time
this week and the depositors will get
a hundred cents on the dollar when a
few months ago when the bank failed
a number of the depositors sold their
claims for less than sc cents on the
dollar.
