save $500 year, the same as the legal

Some print shops take generous
streak every now and then and do
work for nothing. Thus Is the old
saying. THAT a country editor is the
largest jassack In business matters in
existence" proven. Along comes a
struggling merchant who wishes to
help little with advertising and he
is charged full rates for every inch.
Tom wants to sell horse and adver-
tises the fact &C so much per line.
He also pays full rates. The city ad-
vertises for bids to do from $500 to
q 900 worth OF printing q year. for
which 1t is abundantly able to pay,
and some poor sucker bites of his own
nose to spite some one and gives 1t its
printing for nothing. 1t Is just as
cheap to starve doing nothing as it is
to starve working hard, especially on
such a thankless job as city printing.
The city is able to pay We notice
that in the matter of supplies, coal,
ETC., they put up full legal, and some
times illegal, rates.
And now comes the Duluth Herald
and goes "scabbing" after county
printing. The management admits
the Herald will lose money on the job
but that cuts no figure as long as it
can keep some poor deserving cuss
from getting few cents. The two
Duluth dailies or more properly speak
ing the two Duluth leeches, who have
hung to the public tsat until they are
inflated with public pap to the degree
Of being independent. now use the
''dog in the manager" policy towards
their smaller contemporaries with
the idea OF anlhilating their exist
ence which they probably ~ will dc
but not without impairing their own
vitality. The outside OF the News
Tribune Herald combine, papers have
never received a single cent for county
legal printing that anyone is aware OF
and consequently noone will be any the
poorer by the loss of the work.
All the growing INDUCED In by the

West. The voice OF the people was
stifled by party pledges and pre-elec-
tion promises. OF course, 1.-THE people

officers after they are elected. The
range homesteaders and claim holders
who have reason to remember the
position of this man Taylor while In
the land office, will see that his like
ness will not fade from their memory
before another election rolls around.
Perhaps Chester will then wish he

In Favor OF the Justices.

Judge McMaster of the Superior Court,
yesterday decided the mandamus cases in
which Justices of the Peace Hay and Clark
were defendants. in favor of the justices.
In one of the cases Albert Fithian was a
defendant in replevin suit brought before
Justice OF the Peace Hay. He filed petit
ton for change of venue from Hay, which
was refused on the ground that he had
failed TO pay certain costs. Fithian began
mandatory proceedings in the Superior
Court TO compel Hay to grant the change
of venue. In the meantime Justice Hay had
proceeded with the trial of the repevin
suit Fithian's attorney held that, under
the new law regulating the justice of the
peace system, Hay was not entitled TO the
costs claimed by him.
The attorney representing Hay filed de-
murrer to Fithians complaint and Judge
McMaster yesterday sustained it. The court
held that the ruling of Justice Hay on
Fithian's affidavit for change OF venue was
a judicial act and the Superior Court had
no power to compel the justice to grant a
change OF venue, especially after he had
disposed of the case before him. The action
against Magistrate Clark was similar TO the
Hay case and the courts ruling was OF a
similar character.
