MoNDAY's issue of the Daily Effort modestly admits that ButtInskI had the "honor" of membership III the republican territorial commit tee thrust upon him, and that he refused yet further honor" But, Buttinski, such places are not honors; they are places for work, and only competent and willing workers should be put into them. It is safe to say that Buttinski has not raised finger in the position into which he has been pitch forked, to aid in election of Mr. Fowler or the republican county ticket, and has not raised a dollar toward the territorial campaign fund.
