take it that this inneuendo refers
to us. In the first place planting
seeds is not our business. We
believe that everybody should
stick to their trade, that an editor
shouldn't attempt to run a farm
and that a farmer shouldn't at
tempt to run paper. As to pub
lie institutions we regret to state
that it took all our spare coin to
start the Democrat. Had we
been gifted with talent and
a stomach for grating we might
have started the paper by organic
ing a stock company and devoted
our cash to the building of some
needed public institution. The
REPUBLICAN, has limited several
times at a laxity il this paper in
building up public institutions. i
onrS contemporary will be kind
enough to unburden itself we will
perhaps be able to answer its in
quiry more definitely. !" Democrat.
Replying to the above we can
make our position clearer by ask
ing what public institution Or mat
ter Of public concern the Democrat
has not periodically injured by it's
assaults Or BY arraying one part
against another. We will answer
BY saying that it has made com
mendable effort to aid the beef
sugar industry in this locality
but on the other hand it has in
jured the reputation and lowered
the dignity Of The public school,
the Idaho Sugar company, the
city of Idaho Falls, It's competi.
tors in business; it has cultivated
strife among members Of the Ida
no militia, published matter tina,
prejndiced farmers and Others
against the official acts of the
president Of the fair association,
and added fuel to the flame Of
feeling which unfortunately exists
in Bingham county between the
north and the south.
If the Democrat refers to us al
as CRATER because we organizee
a stock company to launch news
paper, we reply that considerable
of the stock was taken on accoun
of the unkind assaults Of thu
Democrat, roasting citizens ant
institutions that were defenseless
inasmueh as they had not th'
weapon of the press for defense
We regret the necessity 9
referfinglto any mistakes or DELHI
crate course Of unfairness on thu
part of the local press before W.

deavor to refrain from it hereaf
