Ben Buck was in Cimarron twp

Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1904-10-13

1t last weeks Globe appeared ar
article attacking Frank Wehrle,
Democratic nominee for County
Clerk. Mr.. Wehrle suggested that
he did not need a clerk to help him
run the Office. Fuhr goes on to
rant about the county printing.
Now, we wish to inform the public
that Mr.. Wehrle had nothing to do
with the county printing. The
County Clerk does not award the
county printing. Frank Fuhr knows
that as well as anyone. He is sim
| ply sore because he did not get it
and attempted to play the dog in
the manger. When he saw he could
not get 1t he jumped out and said he
would do it for 20 cents on the dol
lar. That was the first intimation
we ever had that he was so cheap.
We really ought to have had him
pulled for attempting to "bribe"
the County Commissioners, but we
did not have the advantage of a
great legal adviser. We do not
care to discuss this printing deal,
we did so fully two years ago. We
tried to show Frank up in his proper
attitude. Frank knows that the
party he belongs to believes that to
the "victor belongs the spoils." We
believe that also. 1t is true that if
postmasters were elected by the
people, we know some who would be
out of jobs in thirty minutes.
Hereafter, Frank, don't connect
Frank Wehrle with the county print
ing, he had nothing to do with it.
Frank Wehrle is one individual and
the publisher of this paper is anoth-
er, 1t is true we are near relatives,
but our business interests are separ-
ate. As we said. we do not care to
enter into any newspaper discussion.
Fuhr's attitude in his paper is de-
cidedly unprofessional from a news
paper mans standpoint and when
ever we have to assume a similar
attitude in order to win out, we will
quit the business and do something
else for livelihood. We have spent
nearly IA of the best years of our
life at the case and conducting
newspaper and when we cannot get
paid for what we know without re-
sorting to this unprofessional meth
cd, we will shut up shop. If you
can't make living without the county
printing you had better sell out to
someone who will at least be profess
sional.
