The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1897-09-10

of the Rapid CITY UNION, had a cry
ing ut this week. It is rumored
that the shades of the Stockmau-Re-
publican deal appeared before him
and very near scared the poor child
into commissions. However. his
p%lnafore was adjusted by tender
hands but he continued to alarm the
nelghhorS with mis- fearful ba wlinrs.
1t is rumOred that Artie is troub-
led with water on the brain. and
frequently may be found packing
on and playing With water motors.
Water motors seem to be the dear
enid S delight. ana 1T was only a
snort time ago that he was forced
to give up d long cherished water
motor, about which he has been
blubbering ever since. Artie should
be attended to and just gwen all the
water motors he wants. 50 he should.
to play with so that he will not cry.
But be is a good child, Artie is. al
though he has a passion for water
motors, and we sincerely hope that
there is nothing real serious
Stockman's Journal.
The worthless degenerate who
penned the above lines clearly out
lines his caliber. After sinking so
low in The scale of human decpncv
that even those of his own stripe
shun him, such vaporings as the one
quoted above are all that can eman-
ate from his ill-shaped and brainless
pate. He refers to the publisher of
IHE UNION as the ''child editor"
The manager Of The UNION was en-
gagged in his present occupation long
before this low-bred thief was caDa-
BILE OF laying the disreputable plans
for the dirty work that has charac-
terlzed his every move during the
past few years. He knows this. but
deliberate l,ying is his chief vocation.
he WallOWs in untruth and would
sell his soul for six bits and then
stand his chances Of beating the
devil out of his purchase.
Just what is meant bv 1.-THE Stock
man-Republican deal" is probably
known only to the disreputable cur
who penned the words. We did
have some trouble with the Repub-
lican Publishing Co.. over a water
motor, and while we relinquished Jul
hold on the motor the publishing
company surrendered it's claim to
$40 worth of printing material
which is still in our possession. In
asmuch as the motor cost :3ut $74. 90
it would appear that the "child edi-
tor is still ahead. Furthermore,
this degenerate, Carr, attempted to
buy this same material of US only a
few weeks ago. We offered it to
him for less than half it's cash value
but he evidently thought it cheaper
to beat someone on whom he conld
work a stand-of.
And we may be troubled with
water On the brain,' still there is
no danger Of the malady attacking
the degenerate at Edgemont. A
brain is an article which he does not
possess, O can he work his cal
loused face in obtaining one. He is
an absolute stranger to common
sense and in this city is regarded in
the same light as a big: overgrown
calf. The UNION editor has made
his mistakes, but the worst one was
when we employed this pimple and
encouraged it in foisting it's disrep-
utable presence upon all otherwise
honorable profession like the news
paper business. We acknowledge
u error. This renegade ran his
his course in Rapid City and when
he could no longer get employment
here he journeyed elsewhere and
finally brought up at Edgemont.
The UNION has measured it's every
word in this matter. This article is
directed to Robert V. Carr, the edi-
tor (?) Of the StOckman'S Journal at
