"BY THEIR WORKS We SHALL
KNOW THEM

In the columns of the Herald and
Plaindealer there has been published
upon successive days list of the war
rants of the city held by the firm of
Dinnie Brothers and J. A. and A. S.
Dinnie.
These warrants represent and are
the obligations of the city outstand-
ing and unpaid for want of funds in
the treasury.
1t Is as an example of the super
fciality of the Duis followers that it
is published.
The average outstanding warrants
unpaid for want, of funds held by the
Dinnie's during the four years imme-
diately preceding the administration
of Duis was $lo,Q0s.s2 per year, while
during the term of Mr.. Duis, which i'm
mediately succeeded, the average was
$16,711.21. This is Il fair Illustration
of the comparative business merits of
the two administrations.
Dinnie had outstanding warrants
unpaid for want of funds amounting
to $4,000 per year. Duis had out
standing warrants unpaid for want of
funds averaging almost $4,000 per
year, although during his administra-
ton city bonds in the sum of $4,000
we're issued to take up these identi-
cal warrants.

The first warrants Of the city typ pu r.
chased by Dinnie Bros. were under
circumstances as follows:
During the fall of the year money
is tight because it is largely in use in
moving the crops.
The city treasurer appealed to Mr..
Dinnfe to furnish market for the
warrants and Mr.. Dinnie, as he
had done in the light litigation, paid
ont his own money to protect the city
at time when. had he SO desired, he
could have obtained, from 8 per cent
to IL per cent therefor. Mr.. Dinnie
not only did this. but he interested
others in the proposition, to the end
that the warrants of the city of Grand
Forks never should go to discount,
and it is in those warrants that there
has been in the past and are now in

phans as well as of business men 9TH
