Medina Citizen says: A gentleman
here yesterday remarked to your cor
respondent that the people are dis
gusted with the indecent and SANDER
Gus "trash" being published by the
jamestown CAPITAL relative to the
character of Hon. E. T. Burke, the
coming Judge Of the 5th judicial DIS
trict, and says that he intimately
knows Mr.. Burke and his parents for
the past twenty years, and states
that he has 900 to wager that E.
T. Burke springs from as clean and
respectable family as Jesse Burgster
or Sam Glaspell or any Of their
Cohorts who are seeking in such a
cowardly and unmanly way to de-
fame citizen of whom Barnes and
Ransom counties are justly proud
he further said that if Jesse Burgster
would spend a little ink in the public
prints to tell the people where Sam
Glaspell stood when ''Lloyds bank"
failed in Jamestown a few years ago,
he would be imparting information
that the people want knowledge of.
