While this paper does not object to
other papers copying articles of local
interest from its columns when due
credit is given, we do most seriously
object when an article is stolen bodi-
ly from its columns by a paper pub
lished in Oakland and no credit given
whatever. This occurred last week
when the Journal copied the news
item published the week previous by
us giving an account of the explosion
OF blasting powder at the home of
Michael Legeer near Bittinger, by
which he and others in the building
were injured.
