In last weeks issue Of that vile
sheet appeared several para
graphs, all of which were calcu-
lated to cast reflections upon the
official acts of Yves Wright, chair
man of the board of county com
missioners, particularly, and
other members of the board gen
orally.
Ali decent men spurn such I'M
manly epithets, knowing that they
eminate from the pen of a whimp-
ering coward; yet they are forced
to have such dirty filings cast in
their faces just so long as they
permit such a resemblance of a
man to obstruct their pathway.
The ching" is endured for the
reason that there is no law yet
upon the statute books of the
state which will allow any re-
spectacle citizen to kill it with a
club, as one would a Shiny and
dangerous reptile loaded to the
brim with poison. 1t spits it's
murderouS darts and runs away,

It is too cowardly to remain and
face the righteous indignation,

asperated manhood assumes it's

While the News had the county

the service required.

Bemidji, being a frontier town,
has some things to contend with
that are not particularly respecta-
BILE, but the most disreputable
and loathsome thing of all is the
Beltrami County News. Although
ashamed, we feel compelled to
give it's place of abode that decent
people may shun it, for it's char
acter as periodical is so low in
the ranks of newspaperdom that
few people are inveigled into sub
scribing to enhance it's circula-
ton, especially if they read the
contents of a SINCE issue.
The anatomy of it's senior pro
prietor is of component parts that
go to make up one OF the most
rotton carcasses on this mundane
sphere, while his depraved and
maudlin brain only plans schemes
whereby he can grasp and feed
upon the earnings of all men that
come within the range of his ten
ticles, sweeping them into his
rapacious nav, which never be-
comes gorged. Friend or foe,
should they be so unfortunate as
to step upon his Shiny path, are

ing been allowed. Thus it will be
seen that the PIONEER printed
800 more descriptions and re-
ceived therefor 1913. 38 less money,
each paper being supposed to
have charged the legal rates.
Possibly F. E. Dudley and Hon.
O. w. S. Brannan might enlight-
en- the public why CRATER was
paid more than the law allowed.
Again, the News charged for
the heads over the columns and
other running matter, which are
required by law, and which we
think is right and should be paid
for, but the PIONEERS bill for
them, amounting to $50. 40, was
rejected, while the bill of the
News was paid without muir
mer. "
The News charges that the
board made the startling discov-
cry that the PIONEER had stuffed
a bill to the amount of sos, and
that the same was cut down to a
legal status, much against the
will of Com. Wright, which is an
unmitigated falsehood. There
was no question about the valid
ity of the PIONEERS bill, even in
Guiding the amount of $3.50, but
upon the advice of Attorney Craw
ford, who was called upon for adj
vice in the absence of County At
torney Street from the city, in
forming the board that he could
find no law bearing upon the mat
ter of paying for the heads, ETC.,
although he presumed it was the
custom to pay for the necessary
space used in publishing the tax
list. Upon his semi-opinion, which
the PIONEER regards entirely er-
roneous, the amount of $50. 40Was
disallowed, which was a separate
bill entirely from the descriptive
portion of the tax list. ...-
Last year, for the financial
statement the News received the
sum of $435. This year the Pro
NEER received $40, while the
statement was considerably larg-
er.
Mr.. CRATER explicitly charges
that Com. Wright is disappointed
because the PIONEER bill was
cut "$108," thus depriving him
of his little "divy," which CRATER
alleges to have been the under
standing.
Is it possible that CRATER has
forgotten the deal he put up with
the old board of county commits
sioners a year and more ago,
whereby he secured the county
printing by no other means than
by dividing the profits with at
least one member of the board.
Until he approached" certain
member of that board in his pro-
fessional way he did not enter
tain the least idea of obtaining
the work that year.
Why CRATER persists in MAX
ing such an ass of himself, as the
Lord certainly gave him a boost,
is beyond our ken; but, then, you
know, when he was born pig
and has made a hog of himself,
and still persists in hanging on to
the public teat, it is an extremely
difficult matter to knock him loose
with any kind of a club.
The less CRATER says about the
public printing in the future the
more he will be thought of in the
community, which will be little
enough at best, but he may snap
and snarl and bite and scatter his
NANCY epithets, all to no purpose.
The people are on to his divers
curves and any kid can bat him
all over the field and make home
runs to his hearts content. Oh,
Mr.. CRATER, but you are freak
and should, if possible, hire your
self out to cheap dime museum
at a penny a peep.
