THE COUNTY PRINTING.

County Auditor Egeland inspired
an article published last week in
which the prices charged by this
Office for county work were ques-
toned. and by insinuation claimed
to be- exorbitant. OF course William
is a very smooth young man. He
has gone along in this county for
several years past and by being all
things to all people has been what
yon might call a very successful
politician and has succeeded in
gathering about him considerable
property through politics which
have always redounded to his gain.
But Williams history only proves
the maxim Of Lincoln, you can
fool all the people part of the time;
you can fool part of the people all
the time, but can't fool all the
people all the time The time has
come when some Of Williams
methods have become public and we
do not believe hat the people of
this county will tolerate him n
longer in his political chicanery. In
his article he says that the coming
OF MIR. Denton to Webster was a bad
thing for Day county because the
prices Of the county's public printing
have increased since his arrival.
We do not know what the county
was paying Tor is printing prior to
our arrival in Webster. We. do
know that since we have been the

have charged the county just exactly

men without mercenary motives as
will be e by the statements made
previously in this article, who never
looks to self or family interests, who
is entirely wrapped up in the people,
it vas with the grayest doubts that
the commissioners raised his salary
10 1925 per month. and it was
only after the greatest pressure
was brought to bear by a unanimous
request from the people OF the
county that he could be induced to
accept the raise, unless he changes
his ways he will die "A poor man for
he insists upon devoting his time
and money to the people without
any hope of future reward save the

be necessary to have a guardian
appointed to keep this philanthrop-
list from bringing his family to want.
We have but one request to make
of this great and good man and that
is when he mentions the Reporter
and Farmer and speaks of any deals
made with the p%roprietors that he
tell all the truth and not only that
part which seems to justify some of
his acts.

ing to county funds was not men
toned. Last week Mr.. Sletten
published a letter in which he
denied having made the statements
published in this paper. If anyone
doubts that he made the statements
printed in this paper and takes
sufficient interest in the matter to
call at this office we will give the
names of the gentlemen to which
the statements we're made and who
stand ready and willing to vouch for
the accuracy of the statements pub
lished in this paper. II may be
possible that he did not get the
letter mentioned. A man that will
lie in one instance will lie in another.
He may have said he got the letter
and came to Webster in the hopes
of breeding discomfort in the ranks
of the republican party and creating
a sentiment against Mr.. Wickre in
the hopes that he could thereby
secure the nomination for treasurer
this year. What his motive was we
do not pretend to know but we do
know that he said practically what
we credited him with saying and
that when he disputed it by letter
he lied. He says in his letter:
Il would much prefer being con.
sidered of the stripe attacked by the
Reporter than of the stripe of the
author of the editorials in the
Reporter" We have no doubt that
Mr.. Sletten would rather do Just as
he says, Birds of a feather flock
together A little over a week ago
the most of the men attacked by the
Reporter signed a written agree
ment to 60 to the republican
caususes and assist the present
republican organization in the selec-
ton of delegates favorable to the
o%ganization to the republican county
convention. Then with two or three
notable exceptions these same men
violation of a written contract
went to work to put up caucuses to
delegates antagonistic to the
present organization. This is GER
the kind of company Mr..
Sletten belongs in. He would be
)ut of place in company with men
who value their word. We do not
blame him for preferring the com
Dany of liars, that is the crowd he
affiliate with. Up to the

The following is taken from Ole
j. Sletten's letter: II would not
only refuse to run. but would do
what ] could for him and there
would probably be no opposition to
him." That lis what he said TO Mr..
Wickre. Since Ole has been
approached to run for treasurer, and
has proven himself as "A letter-writer,
he has developed somewhat in his
own estimation. When did the
people Of Day county give it into
his hands tosay whether there should
be more than one candidate for treas
urer or not! When did he become
sponsor for the whole Of our people?
OF course Ole is to be pardoned
somewhat for the exalted opinion he
holds Of his own Importance. He
was told by the disgruntlcd ones
that he was the Moses they were
looking for and that voters would
Aock to him like flies to a sorghum
barrel. But they 90 back on Their

The Reporter and Farmer has
made noagreement to support Pierre

the World has for thinking SO is
that the Mitchell representatives

time the columns of the World were
bought. The editorial columns of
the Reporter and Farmer are not
for sale. The columns of the editor
of the World are always in the

feature it will stay bought.

Two Passenger Trains in Head-On Col
lision at Fresno.

Two Passenger Trains in Head-On Col
lision at Fresno.
FRESNO, June 25.-The San Fran
cisco and Bakersfield Santa Fe limited
and the Visalia local met in a head-on
collision this afternoon at o'clock just
outside the Fresno yards. Trains No
and No. % are now on the tracks a
dilapidated heap of splintered boards
and scrap iron. Several persons were
injured. some seriously, and it is a
marvel that many are not now lying in
the City Morgue. The blame for the
collision has not been fixed.
The injured are: Arthur williams,
fireman on the Limited, whose left arm
is crushed badly. 1t is feared it will
have to be amputated. Local physi-
clans insisted upon amputation, but
friends took him to San Francisco this
evening with the hopes of saving the
arm. Charles Hill, the engineer on the
Limited, had his left leg broken and an
ankle badly bruised. The trainmen on
the local jumped in time to escape the
crash. The conductors on both trains
escaped without scratch.
Among the passengers injured were
Samuel Samuelson, a fruit buyer in the
employ Of Castle Bros. He had his left
foot very badly crushed. 1t was caught
between the cars as he started to jump
from the train. Ora Jones, IL years
old, who was on the visalia train, had
her head out of the window and was
severely bruised. Wing Hing was the
worst injured passenger on the Visalia
l. -, % f1o
smoker. His head and shoulder were
cut and he was bruised considerably.
After picking himself up from the
wreck he started across the fields and
has not been seen since. b. o. Farmer,
]. c. Hitler and ]. NJ. Howell, all
travelling men, got off luckily with a
few cuts and bruises. The accident
occurred at 5 o'clock. The limited at
that hour is usually far beyond Calwa
station, where the lines branch, one
going to Bakersfield and the other to
Visalia. The Visalia train usually
misses the limited, as by the time it
reaches Calwa the limited has passed
on. its way TO Bakersfield. The limited
was five minutes late to-day, and just
why the conductors were not aware Of
the other train being on the track is
not clear. The limited had just rounded
the curve, leaving Fresno station when
it met the Visalia train, which was
running at full speed. A freight train
on a switch obstructed the view and
the engineers saw nothing of the dan
ger till the two trains were upon each
other
When the two engineers saw the
danger, whistles were blown and
emergency brakes put into action, but
it was too late. The train crew on the
local jumped in time to escape injury,
but those on the Limited were caught
in the crash as they started to jump
from the cab.
