We viii Excuse the Colonel.

If Colonel Phillips Of the Reports'
needs any time III which to devote hi,n-
self to his own town of Indianola. in
behalf of the good people of McCook,
THE TRIBUNE will excuse him from
devoting so much of his valuable space,
time and gray matter to McCook and
her citizens. There are some interest
ing chapters of local history the colonel
might enlarge upon: The watch factory,
ochre mine and mill, and grange store
etc. might make an entertaining sympo-
SUM for Jasper's %facile, vigorous and
humorous pen. If the colonel will un-
dertake to sweep clean before his own
local front door, he will have less waste
and idle time OH his hands in which to
malign, misrepresent and roast" his
busy neighbors. The advice is worth
the trial and effort; and the result will
always be beneficial.

this city. was seen to-day and asked re-
garding the statement sent out by a GORE
spondent OF Munce TO the effect that the
proprietors of several of the leading MALE
able iron factories had met in that city
yesterday and was thought that their OBJ
ject was to organize a gigantic trust and
squeeze out the smaller concerns. Mr.. Has
we'll said there was not a word of truth in
1t. He said that the malleable iron manu-
facturers had been organized for several
years into merely social organization, and
that the meeting at Muncie yesterday was
of a social nature. There is no desire. he
further said, among the malleabe iron
manufacturers to combine. He said he had
an invitation TO attend the meeting yester-
day, but business prevented him. He
seemed to think if that had been the OBJ
ject of the meeting there would have been
something of that nature said in the invita-
ton. AS far as squeezing the smaller con-
Germs out of business, ne said he was sure
there was nothing in it.
